I have a list I keep updating on the regular whenever someone requests getting added
managing to keep that in full order and in remembrance. Good work there sire
It was more them just raging over flubbing some of their lines, to varying degrees of [EXPLETIVE].
oh...so it doesn't hit perverted Chi-Chi levels good (maybe...probably good...unless it's worse than that)

So, here's a ****in thing. The Xbox has become THE SEGA console. Like, you can play Sonic 1, 2, 3 & Knuckles, CD, Generations, Unleashed, Forces, Fighters, Racing Transformed, literally pretty much every Sonic except the Nintendo exclusives and the original Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing which I'm salty about. There's Panzer Dragoon, Every Yakuza, you can get Crazy Taxi, Virtua Fighter 2 & 5, the Shenmue Trilogy, The Streets of Rage franchise, Monster Boy, Golden Axe, Bass Fishing (why?), and that's not even including the games that are on the Genesis Collection.

So, what's my point? I've actually become fond of the idea that Microsoft buys SEGA. However, it's not because I want SEGA to become Xbox exclusive. It's because of all the weird management issues SEGA has been having over the last few years. Constantly losing employees, employees not getting paid fairly, apparent toxic work environments among others, makes me think that maybe Microsoft could do wonders at restructuring SEGA. They've been close for a while with certain exclusives like Panzer Dragoon ORTA, Jet Set Radio Future, and Phantasy Star Online 2, and even a crossover with Banjo-Kazooie and Sonic in All-Stars Racing.

My only problem with this is Atlus. Atlus is of course tied with Playstation with the Persona franchise and Nintendo with the Shin Megami Tensei franchise. I could see Microsoft still releasing games on Switch with Atlus but it would cause a bit of a rift for the Persona franchise to all of a sudden become PC and Xbox exclusive.

I don't know. This was just a random thought I had at 1 in the AM and was wanting to share it. I have problems with the possibility of a Microsoft Acquisition but I'm starting to think that SEGA's management needs a shift and I'm not sure if SEFA themselves has it in them. By all means if they want to keep going the way they do that's cool as long as they can but I do think their employees getting poached often is quite telling. That and the fact that they're licensing out like crazy recently. Don't get me wrong I'm SO glad they're licensing because Konami isn't and the industry is worse for it but internal SEGA has... Yakuza, Sonic, and Puyo Puyo? It's definitely odd.

Edit: While I'm at it, if you have an Xbox, I heavily suggest buying Sonic 3 HERE and Sonic & Knuckles HERE because it's currently the only modern location you can get these games and considering how historic they are, if they're taken off here at any point, they're likely gonna be nigh impossible to get on modern hardware. And you can get them both for... $8 here. And yes, the lock on technology of & Knuckles does still work.

"Lamp rope, oil, bombs or... hmm, this invitation for Smash I got..."

MORSHU PAYS THE PRICE!

"Sorry Waluigi, Isaac from Golden Sun, Crash, Doomguy and other wanted characters. Come back when you're a little mmm... worthy of a spot."

I want Morshu for an unexpected fighter choice even though it will never ever happen.

Star Hill. Why do you ask?
I plan on these miis to take on the classes so far for miitopia
Tank class: Smithy (SMRPG)
Theif class: Geno (SMRPG)
Mage class: Vivian (Paper Mario)
Chef class: Princess tomato (Princess tomato in salad kingdom)
Princess class: Valentina (SMRPG)
Imp class: Mack (SMRPG)
Scientist class: CATS (zero wing)
Warrior class: Axem Red (SMRPG)
Flower class: Booster (SMRPG)
Cleric class: Mallow (SMRPG)
Elf class: Alex Kidd
Cat class: Jinx (SMRPG)
Vampire class: Fauster (wario woods)
Pop star class: Axem Pink (SMRPG)
I think it would be interesting to see martial artist and robot and gamer and jester/clown classes but I don’t know if it can happen after the game release on switch.
Also the dark lord would be Culex (SMRPG)

Can't speak for Hasbro, but Wizards of the Coast has been doing nothing but extremely scummy things for the last few years now, wouldn't surprise me at all.
I hate to admit it but yeah, that’s pretty true.

Remember the Walking Dead Secret Lair? or that one time they started make extremely busted cards box toppers?

THE WINNER IS...


Pekora will be my Miitopia playthrough's protagonist!

Sorry @Noipoi, the bunny won the game of luck in the end. I threw my personal vote to her in the beginning and intended it to be a tiebreaker, but when someone else went Eggman, it had to come down to good 'ol RNG. Ran a number between 1 and 10 (Pekora would win with 1-5, Eggman 6-10), and the generator rolled 1.

@SnakeFighter64 and Michael the Spikester Michael the Spikester since I know yoi two love NRS games
There was a problem fetching the tweet
Their source is highly questionable. For those who don't know, Daniel Richtman aka DanielRPK is sometimes a hit when it comes to promotional teaser and trailer dates, but he does tend to be a miss a lot when it comes to scoops. So I'd take whatever he says with a grain of salt for now.

I literally just bought some sleeves, sleeved my deck, and they already have scratches on them :073:

At least I’m fairly certain now it’s not the sleeves, but the deck box that is the issue. sigh but, that’s still like $20 wasted.

Oh well, I’m getting my next batch today anyway.

So is FNF no longer the in thing?

Remembers Newgrounds ****ing crashed a week ago

The kickstarter is at 1,500,000 atm



No, it's very in apparently.
Seems to be pretty popular in certain circles, but outside of those circles I honestly don’t hear too much about it. Kinda weird how that works.
Also I’m just surprised that they made Tankman a Newgrounds timed exclusive week and didn’t expect the site to crash.

I can certainly see why this seems like it be a good idea, and I agree Sega needs some changes in management, but the further monopolization of the game industry is not the answer. It'd be overall better for the consumer if third parties remained independent and the big 3 were forced to make new studios from the ground up. Luckily, their's little chance a Japanese company would sell themselves to a American one.

Among Us walked so FNF could run

not really tbh but I find it funny how another relatively niche game rose up to fame

Anyway, I forgot to mention it yesterday, but I started getting therapy yesterday. My therapist is really kind and relatable and I feel I can talk to her about anything. ;w;
Really glad to hear, hopefully it continue to work well for you!

Is it funny to say I could see Chris Pratt taking the role of Hercules in a live-action remake?

No seriously I can see this happening.

He'll decline the role after hearing that the Greeks were gay as ****
That's why we need good old Holywood historical revisionism.

They should introduce Hylas as a central character and then make half of his dialogue calling Herakles "bro" to reassure the audience that they're both 1000% heterosexual.

In all seriousness I hate movies. I’m not a movie guy.

There's gonna be a gay sex scene with Greek soldiers, but they say no homo at the end so they can keep their PG rating amd the Conservatives are happy that the gay agenda isn't pushed to such impressionable children.
