I now know the horrors of the Waterwraith

Many kids in the early 2000s fear its existence to the core. From its incoming drop (if you take too long on the current floor) to the roar and pikmin instakill.

Welcome to the club.

You're now familiar with one of the most dreaded video game enemies of the 2000s and the chase song that terrified all who played the game.

Speaking of indie ideas, I'm kinda surprised nobody seems to want to make a game with Zelda 2's combat and magic systems, I think they could work super well with today's QoL standards

Hey so uh did I technically call the CDi gsme spiritual successor? Zelda 2 was a sidescroller after all

Called?

Or maybe


Leaked classified information? Hmmm?

Complete Industry Shutdown.

Sighs Well, I really do hope that the strikes will serve as a wake-up call to all studios to change their ways and give both actors and writers something that is fair and respectful to them although I predict it will take a while for the storm to be settled eventually on this occasion.

No way in hell should anyone be allowed to get away with this.

Whilst I am in no support of AI, but this is highly screwed up.

Iirc I think the Flash did this.

Edit: and to specify, I mean they CGI'd very much alive actors, some of which didn't even know they were in the movie

The wheel damned us all.

Going back in time to prevent the cavemen from making a fire

 

[Pink Yoshi]

If y'all are uninventing technology, can we at least still have Total Drama in real life?

On a lighter note...

WE ARE SO BACK, BROS

Shoutouts to Jay Garrick for being "in" The Flash and not knowing it until someone asked him.

Some soulless garbage right there.

This is some evil ****, those corporate assholes will stop at nothing to systematically destroy people's livelihood and art in the name of profit

I hope they trip down the stairs. They're old, their skulls are fragile, all you need is the edge of a single stair to finish the job

"It's a bit disturbing to me that they want to strike" says the ultra rich CEOs earning millions of dollars to sit on their ass doing nothing of value all day whilst they **** over all the artists actually making the art that earns their companies billions each year.

So glad my extended weekend has begun.

It will be a good one for sure.

 

[Momotsuki]

Hello! What's up? Getting back into Smash with my Wii after my Switch died a year ago, so I figured I'd check in. Mainly playing Melee/The Akaneia Build and PMEX REMIX.

 

[Wario Bros.]

It's still hard to believe that Shantae Advance is finally releasing.

It's Star Fox 2 all over again!

 

[Jondolio]

I got Poipole. Therefore I am no longer in need of Dynamax Adventure.

Unfortunately I'm in a bit of a conundrum since I need both Poipole and Naganadel for the living dex and I can only get one Poipole. I'm gonna sleep on this

Time to use the GTS

Again


Fun fact, you can get basically anything you want with an in-demand shiny Paradox Pokemon.



I don't remember if you're Scarlet or Violet, but Shiny Great Tusk/Shiny Iron Valiant are always in vogue.

I dumped a shiny Magmar in there, I'll check for results tomorrow morning

 

[TMNTSSB4]

to not focus on the negatives of Hollywood, I’d like to say that season 2 of Sonic Prime was ****ing amazing.

and that Ian Hanlin is a godly Shadow (either equal to or better than Jason Griffin somehow)

also Brian Drummond is a great Eggman

 

[KingofPhantoms]

I really need to play TotK more. I've been doing more online gaming lately as well as playing a few other games I haven't finished.

The Wind Temple seems epic so far.

Anyways, what in the world goes on in the Pokemon manga

I could talk about the manga for days (and I do sometimes on Twitter). I can't wait to read the XY saga when the final English volume releases in September.

Just wait till you hear the boss's theme.

then after that get back to Sidon

Why did nobody tell me Guzmas theme in Pokemon Masters EX was ****ing EDM?

 

[Z25]

They also claimed nic cage was on set but there’s no way that was him.

 

[KingofPhantoms]

Just wait till you hear the boss's theme.

If it's anything comparable to Maz Koshia's theme in the first game, I don't expect it to be anything less than epic or a bop.

Or both.

Masters soundtrack is full of bangers.

I think the biggest concern I have regarding this is that it's a mod who posted a fictional raccoon's butthole.

This fan game looks and is amazing. Definitely recommend checking this out:

 

[KillerCage]

Spoiler: Heavy personal stuff

I got a phone call earlier this morning with my father. His father/my grandpa will pass away within the next three days. Since my dad is with him, I was able to speak my feeling toward Grandpa before he moved on. Not my preferred choice of communication, but at least he got to hear my voice one last time.

I know how that feels. Rooting for ya.

Real sorry to hear that, man.

It's a manga that was released under the Viz Kids line series. I don't really see the problem, but if it makes you feel uncomfortable, I can remove it.
