Maybe a hot take, but I think it's perfectly okay to be condescending towards Sonic Team. Making Sonic games is their one job, and they're bad at their job. Over a decade of sloppy work would get you fired in most places.

This applies to the leaders btw, NOT working devs. https://t.co/pJmZmUg2RS

oh no sonic twitter™ has started finding this oh no no no no no https://t.co/2LKLfUFaie

Do not make a hot take about Sonic on Twitter. Worst mistake of MockRock's life.

Sonic fans harassing someone and harassment in general is always a big no no.

That is a bad take combined with a good take so IDK what my point was.

I'd like to be a Vtuber



But unless you got a sexy voice like the Nijisanji EN guys, male Vtubers are nowhere near as popular as girls lol.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

M MooMew64 you work with battries, right? What is the best way to soften up the glue on the bottom of the battery? I know some reccomend heat, some alcohol, i do have both. Which should I use first?

 

[TheMightyP]

While sonic fans harassing someone is always a big no no I do think that is a bad take.

Bad take but he is right that you should question the hire ups instead of harassing the devs.

When gamers get mad, they go straight to the devs and the director when they're just ordinary people doing what they were told.

M MooMew64 Wademan94 Know who paved the way for your favorites.

I am coming here with cursed knowledge to tell you all that all modern VTubers stem from Donkey Kong, who in 1996 hosted a live show in France where he as a CG character controlled via body suit and finger macros to talk with real people in real time.

Why else do you think they gave DK such a defined butt in the show?

I pulled a Gamer on the internet and my brain skipped over the second part of the original take, so I deserve any ensuing clowning.

But yeah I do agree 100% that the higher ups who should be questioned.

I would Vtube as a cutesy anime girl with my deepest, trashiest Jersey accent.

You've got a hell of a range, and honestly? Yeah, you could 100% pull it off.


I sound like I just woke up and drank gravel lol.

At that point, why not just be a black Aqua Teen Carl
(You are black right? Im not remebering wrong?)

 

[cashregister9]

If you really stretch the definition and I mean REALLY Stretch the definition.

isn't all animation voice acting just Vtubing?

 

[MooMew64]

Oh, I should clarify that I haven't worked with removing them: The place I work for gets them in recycling, and I'd sort them out whenever I was working in that specific area.

My brother would probably be able to tell you, though, so lemme go ask him and I'll try to get back to you ASAP with what he says.

Is Bulbapedia crapping out on anyone else?

 

[MooMew64]

Whenever I pick my projects back up, I planned on going in on a cutesy animal character for Vtubing 'cause it just seemed to fit in with what I like and the franchises that have inspired me the most.

MooMew is basically just a big 'ol mish mash of Kirby, Pokémon, and Lucky Star stuff lol.

 

[Noipoi]

Yeah, they’ve been goofing.

I'm taking a huge risk with this joke

There was a problem fetching the tweet

I checked the wiki's twitter and apparently the servers are having some bad software issues.

 

[MooMew64]

I just use Serebii 90% of the time lol.

I'm gonna concur with this, Bulbapedia is ass nowadays

Just spoke with him and my brother said to use alcohol and 100% not to use heat given it's a lithium ion battery.

He also said the iFixit guide should talk about it but I think you said you were already following that. Hope this helps!

Wouldn't be surprised if the N64 Switch Online service gets it too, considering Nintendo requested Germany to unban that game last year.

That would have been a awesome E3 announcement if both Microsoft and Nintendo announced that they would be on both platforms

Man, this alcohol is gonna take a while, isnt it lol and yep, im following it, succrssfully made it all the way to the battery who im fighting rn. The most alcohol i have is rubbing alcohol, is that good because ive read it is

 

[Pokelego999]

I tend to use Bulbapedia for quick access to a wider variety of information, but Serebii is definitely more in depth with its technical aspects (Also that Wisp map was ****ing helpful as ****)

Yeah, I mentioned you said rubbing alcohol specifically and he said to go for that.

Batteries are notorious for being the absolutely worst thing to replace, unfortunately. They're always a pain.

They are all friend sized.

 

[Wario Bros.]

I do use Serebii a lot more than Bulbepedia. I like to use Bulbapedia on stuff like spin-offs and other misc stuff.

 

[MooMew64]

Oh yeah, speaking of the Steam Deck TheMightyP

FFVII Remake works on it. Gonna see how it performs in a minute.

KH3 apparently does too but it's a pain in the neck to get it to work, might no work on it super soon. Sonic Colors Ultimate was unfortunately borked and will probably remain as much until someone with more Linux experience with me finds the magic combo that gets it working or I repurchase it on Steam.
