More of a fan of Tails screaming for Sonic every scene
I mean, what else do you expect him to do? It's not like he once fought a god with his own bare hands.

You silly, funny fox boy cowering in the fetal position is the height of cinema and it is perfectly true to his character arc.

I'm a huge fan of pretending Cream doesn't exist. Love it!

Wouldn't be surprised if Multiverse of Madness adds in all the formerly non-Disney properties into the MCU in one fell swoop.
they already got most of the Spider-Man franchises on lock (Spider-Verse y’all next), and we’ll have X-Men locked up as well…but the others…I’m down for the MCU to own

Cream and Big, and other underused or forgotten characters…I wonder if Sega or Sonic Team remembers them, IDW comics aside I suppose since Flynn doesn’t seem to forget anybody

I beat Kirby and the Forgotten Land a couple days ago. It was a fun game the whole way through. And I was playing on hard mode, so multiple parts offered a challenge.
I didn't expect the final part to be five stages. Some parts were of course, easier than others. I struggled with the fourth stage the most, but then I realized I could use Drill to avoid most of the attacks.

The final cutscene stirred up some emotions.

I'll give it a 25% chance that we'll get some Pokémon Scarlet/Violet news this month, especially during the last week.
May used to be when Pokémon news got going, but recently they’ve been getting the news cycle started in June.

It’s usually early June though. Within the first two weeks. We kinda just have one month to go.

Which is why I gave it a low number

duxx duxx 's AMA is now up!

From now on, I'm gonna be drawing the next name one week in advance so less than frequent people like duxx here will have more than enough time to respond to the initial tag.

I'll try and draw next week's name either later tonight or tomorrow morning.


if any of y'all aren't currently on the list of future AMA subjects and would like to be added, please lemme know via reply or PM

I might be leaning towards team real on those Oddish and Gloom images
I think they look good, but i don’t see how someone could have leaked that. I would love to see it though, but I think it’s just a well made fake, with how hard leaking actual gameplay shots is. Something I don’t think we ever had happen before unless a game was out in the wild early.

oh shoot I put off answering those last AMA questions too long lol

Ramen Tengoku Ramen Tengoku would it be okay if I just did ‘em in this thread as a spoiler and pinged those who asked ‘em? Kept meaning to get to it, but looks like I waited just a touch late, lol.
Yeah, that's fine, though I purposely left yours open for a bit, so you can finish answering the questions there. Either way works though, I'd say

Really liking Moon Knight right now, probably my favorite thing to come from the MCU. I initially hated Steven because he took away from action pieces. I have grown to appreciate his and Marc’s banter, and was incredibly sad when he died.

Gonna try again and collect all the time stones and obtain the good future.

Oh man, I don't know if Meg 2: The Trench is gonna do well.

It's sandwiched between The Marvels, TMNT: The Next Chapter and Blue Beetle. That's a lot of competition.

Unless the movie gets moved up or delayed at some point.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is the month's Switch Online icon rotation (along with May birthdays in Animal Crossing).

Nintendo already teased a Rosalina icon so naturally I'm gonna switch (no pun intended) off of Mario.

Also plat points for playing Kirby Super Star. You don't even need to progress, booting it up works just as well.

Before they stop accepting credit cards on the Wii U eShop, I'm going to pick up a few games. The ones I'm currently considering are:

Minish Cap (definitely)
Prime Trilogy (definitely)
Fire Emblem Shadow Dragon
Yoshi's Island DS
One of the Megaman Zero or Battle Network games

Any other suggestions?

Final AMA responses!

KillerCage KillerCage

4) Favorite JRPG(s)?

5) Favorite film genre(s)?

1. Chrono Trigger, Kingdom Hearts 2, Final Fantasy VII, Tales of Vesperia, and TTYD are some of my personal favorites.

2. Not much of a movie watcher but I like animated stuff and family movies the best!

3. Ryu has yet to personally wrong me or Waluigi, he lives. For now.


Lamperouge Lamperouge

4. How did you fall into the VTuber hole?
5. What's your "comfort" video game?
6. Do you think love can bloom even on a battlefield?
1. Fubuki:


2. I probably have 4 that fight for the top spot: Metroid Prime, Animal Crossing NH, Sonic Adventure 1, and Mario 64. All 4 just make me happy!

3. That sounds like somethin' from one of my Japanese animes.


Tankman from Newgrounds Tankman from Newgrounds

10. Favorite Sony franchise?
11. Favorite Microsoft franchise? (No ActiBlizz and Bethesda)

Sega Be like: Team Dark never existed, they were never friends

Also Sega:
View attachment 351644
I see this more as they went nuts with retcons during the 2010s and now people in Sega's western branches like Ian and co. are getting them to slowly relent.

100% if Ian starts getting more and more say into Sonic lore, Team Dark will come back.

I feel like that depends on what you have or what you're interested in, but maybe focus on games that aren't available on the Switch, whether it's older games like Super Mario RPG or Wii U exclusives like Xenoblade Chronicles X. (I don't think Nintendo Land can be bought on the eShop any more)

Also, maybe look into DuckTales Remastered if you even have a passing interest, unless you can get it on other consoles or PC. (it's not on the Switch, and I doubt it will be re-released there)


Not sure if Tekken Tag Tournament 2 is available digitally, but if it is, it's got Nintendo exclusive features. (mainly costumes and a new mode, but it's what got me into the series, so I figure I should mention it)

I can't believe it took this long for Wario to have an icon to be added.

I've been thinking about if every style in SMM had a crossover power up like Link. One of Samus and Kirby would go in one of World or 3 (I'm not really sure which would be best where though), and Inkling is obvious for 3D World, but I'm a bit lost in what to do for NSMBU. There isn't really another Wii U era game that would also be interesting and unique in a 2D Platformer. All I can think of is DK from Returns/TF, which doesn't seem overly unique to me.

I had a dream about Mario Kart Arcade GP 3
And these are the new characters available:
  • Krusha
  • Lulu (The Bow girl from the new warioware games)
  • A Broodal (i can't specify which one)
  • Klonoa
  • Wagan (for those who don't know)
  • A Digimon (i can't specify which one)
  • That top hat thingie from Tales of Berseria
Oddly enough, Dig Dug and his son (Mr. Driller) are absent from the roster, but there was a race track based on that series.
