Today marks the 10th character in my Magic the Gathering/ Smash Bros weekly project. Here is my idea for Ness:

Next, I will be making Captain Falcon, who sounds like a lot of fun to design.

You know, I wonder how this joke would fare post Lego Movie. I know it's meant to be parody, but I'm pretty sure the Olive Garden joke in the Sonic Movie was also parody and people really didn't like it.

I don't know what the Olive Garden joke is like but if people don't get the satire in Wayne's World they forfeit the right to complain.

Anyway, here's a similar scene.

 

[MooMew64]

Cows go moo.

i have been summoned

 

[Noipoi]

i have been summoned

No you go mew.

There’s a difference.

 

[KingBooGengar57]

No you go mew.

There’s a difference.

He moos and mews. He's a cowcat.

 

[MooMew64]

No you go mew.

There’s a difference.

No, no, he got it right:

He moos and mews. He's a cowcat.

 

[Noipoi]

No, no, he got it right:

Then my Avatar is accurate.

Legit I speculate sometimes companies like Nintendo feel threatened by their own backlog.

Like, I legit do sometimes wonder if it's because they're scared people will like the old games too much that they won't buy new ones and that they'll harm sales.

Which is silly thinking and only shows a lack of confidence in your own project, but hey, I got no idea as to any better reason why companies act like making emulators is some Herculean feat when we've had people in their basements making near flawless emulation on their own dime for 2 decades now.

I think that simplifies things a bit much. It probably comes down to profit margins and wanting to keep the value of the IPs high. There is definitely the argument of getting one's fix through an older title but one could also assume there is probably more money to be made on newer releases, especially low budget re-releases they'll try and sell at full price, than putting the effort into researching and re-releasing games people automatically (and honestly rightfully) expect to be discounted.

NES/SNES are probably one and done now when it comes to emulation, they've been built upon and upon for over 20 years now, but public interest has arguably been waning. It wouldn't surprise me if they're undervaluing them now and seeing more money long term through the subscription service. Why they took down FE1 after only ~4 months though is beyond me and one of the dumbest things they've done IMO.

N64 is probably a mix of imperfect emulation and valuing the games more highly. On top of being a more multi-player based system and the weird controller, this system is in it's own weird nexus.

GC and beyond is probably valuing too highly or seeing chances to re-release at low budget but full price. Have heard of some potential issues regarding certain Wii games and motion control as well that would require extra effort. Ex. Metroid Prime 3

They'll harass YT channels and Twitch streamers who try to bring attention to it and try to flex some lawyer muscle on a ROM site or two at worst and that's about it.

Emulators themselves are 100% legal. Nintendo, by all accounts, can't stop a thing, and I'm dang thankful for that. Soooooo much art within the industry would be lost if they had their way.

Definitely think at this point it's more so a pandora's box situation lawyers are making them avoid than anything else at this point. IDK maybe it's me, but I think at this point with the industry as old as it is I don't think emulation is as much of a threat to profit as it once was or is seen as a given now and that companies just have to keep up appearances on in most cases.

To their credit, if there is one thing the Giga Leak has shown is that Nintendo is amazing when it comes to preserving things internally. They just don't want to share or make things public. It wouldn't surprise me if the Giga Leak would contain proof of concept stuff for the original Metroid Dread. lol

I don’t hear any cracking whips.

Isn’t the overuse of that sound effect what made the original so “special”?

I guess I'll try to watch Space Jam: A New Legacy as soon as I can. I'll have to buy HBO Max first, but that's something I've been putting off for a long time anyways. I'll probably enjoy it despite the criticism. It'll probably end up like the first movie where it's not critically acclaimed, but beloved anyways.

Many assumed it would be bad because of what it's a reboot of, but I didn't want to write it off. The show's concept has a lot of potential; you just have to write it well.

It definitely does, and from what I heard it's better and actually enjoyable this time.

TBH, Johnny Test has always beem a guilty pleasure of mine anyways

I bought one of the digimon digital pets. I accidently bought the X-Antibody at first but after looking up info on it I decided just to get the original. I got a purple one.

Foxes tend to live up to 5 years in the wild. What does the Fox say was released in 2013.

It seems as if Space Jam 2 is for people who can shut their brain off and enjoy a 2 hour ****post. So basically like Space Jam 1. I might check it out then, why not.

Also, lol at the animation nerds fuming over a movie with ****ing Big Chungus and Rick and Morty

 

[dezeray112]

The next season of Battlebots is officially confirmed.

There had already been several confirmations of teams set to compete that include some international teams from Brazil, Canada, the United Kingdom and a first appearance from South Korea.

Ok, hear me out:
BDSP's base game is based on Diamond and Pearl.

Post Game is based on Platinum.

Yes.

But

Why do that when Platinum can be DLC?

 

[TheMightyP]

Yes.

But

Why do that when Platinum can be DLC?

Because Legend's Arceus is the DLC of BDSP

I mean I definitely have some issues with the movie but I’m just glad to see western 2D animation back on the big screen for a bit

Ye, the animation is solid as hell, notbsaying that 3D is bad but 2D can get away with a lotbwithought getting into the uncanny valley in comparison to 3D.

 

[MooMew64]

So yeah where can I find the Spange bop GCN controller

Gotta prepare for the new game that's gonna take FGC by storm

I just bought something off of the foreign eshop for the first time. It feels legitimately weird to download foreign materials like that.

It was the expansion for Yokai watch 4, i dont really know what this expansion brings but i guess i'll find out.
