I'm starting to see people waifu Elise from Sonic 06 and for whatever reason that's just funny to me.

Like

The fact that there are people coming out of the woodwork recently with unironic love for 06 is fascinating to me. Like, nothing wrong with people liking a game, of course, it's just...It's just really funny to me. Internet opinions are literally just on a wheel and it cycles back and forth.
Now that’s a waifu that’s beyond ****-tier

The reasom why we have the babies and reskinned characters in the first place is because of asset flips. Since they already have the base models and animations up to boot, they can just reuse them, change things up a bit and bam, new character like that. Literally echo fighters, bit for Mario Kart. Baby Rosalina and Pink Gold Peach would take less time than Diddy Kong or Pauline, maybe even less time than both of them combined.

Not saying that you can't hope for them, but they're just filler, no more, no less.


And before someome says put them in one slot, you just moved their clickable PNGs. The same amount of effort would still be put in each of those characters no matter where they go.

If the direct and CP11 is not until two weeks that'll be an exciting week for sure.

The direct itself, CP11, Straight Outta Nowhere: Scooby-Doo Meets Courage the Cowardly Dog, and Cry Macho.

The direct will probably air after Wario Ware is out. I would not be shocked if we got it before the. Though so they can go “hey be sure to buy this!”
Granted they could do that after it releases to.

Still swamped with games and a new Destiny season, so probably the plan is:

- WarioWare next week

- Colors a week or two after, as WarioWare games are short and easy to beat

Then finally focus on Miitopia and Origami King.

Oh, yeah, and when they come out, play CP11 for thirty minutes and then forget Smash exists.

Just beat the 5th ranked assassin in No More Heroes III.

Just please don't take me back to that school. I was legit worried I was going to have a ****ing heart attack.

I’m so close to beating Pirate101 on my first character, but my god, Valencia Part 2 is a buggy mess and I don’t know if I’ll be able to do it all in one sitting :yoshi:

I’m probably the only one who has no sort of problem with MatPat (hell he got lots of things in WandaVision right up until the last episode…tho tbf…nobody was getting Ralph Bohner and the lack of Mephisto right)

also he’s doing pretty well in predicting Thor ****ing up the Marvel universe rn (616 of course)

I think the issues people have stem from his attitude and not his theories.

He's nowhere near as bad as some people say, but he definitely has some pride and that can rub people the wrong way.

Still, I'd take 1000 Matpats over 1 of the Paul brothers.

I think Matpat’s video thumbnails are cringe and that his theories are often wrong. I do remember watching him on GT Live and he seems like a good person, plus he donates to charity.

Too often people conflate bad attitudes or cringe actions with moral culpability.

People really need to watch more of his live streams. The dude is actually really sweet and genuine and that added context really helps when watching the theories. Makes the arrogant tone he has in the videos less noticeable

I’d like to figure out what to do to make space for Halo MCC again. I want a slice of the Season 8 pie, and from what little info is available, it looks amazing.

Yeah, deep down, I think he's a flawed but overall decent human being. I respect him.

Not like... the Paul Brothers...

I can't stand them.

Matpat seems like a cool guy who comes off as really smug sometimes, especially in cases where he’s making a theory that’s dumb, so people like to dunk on him.

I’m not opposed to some mockery, when you become a semi-public figure you should expect that, but I don’t think he deserves to be harassed or anything. Especially because, once again, he seems like a decent guy.

pride and confidence can be a disadvantage at times

I can tolerate Logan more since he got to learn about the ways of pro wrestling and didn’t do too bad taking a Stunner (plus he seems to be less sus than Jake is, with his whole “butt to butt interview” thing)

I can't tolerate the Pauls for two main reasons.

They're dumbass behavior is all planned (they taught classes on it).

They manipulate kids in such an overt way. Its sickening.

They're money grubbing monsters as far as I'm concerned and the damage their behavior did to one of my classes is assinine.
