If Nikoderiko: The Magical World doesn't have a physical option at launch, then I'll very likely go digital.

3D World still has the best Bowser theme

Shoutouts to his theme from Galaxy 2. Probably was the most epic track in the entire game and nobody heard it cause the fight lasted 10 seconds.

 

[Jondolio]

Finished X-Men 97. I thought it was good but it peaked with episodes 2 and 5, I'll watch the next season but Marvel is still not out of the trenches as far as I'm concerned

Banger track. Sad it didn't play in the Mario movie.

Hoyoverse ads are the most annoying thing on planet earth, I hope this company goes under

I always like to imagine bowser had the koopa big band blaring through his car speakers whenever he’d show up for a fight in that game

I’ve had this idea for a video game about a caveman knocking around in my head for a while, dunno if I’ll ever make it. Maybe if I ever learn game design.

But anyway, one idea for it was that all the spoken dialogue would be cave paintings. Kinda like Wing Dings. The characters wouldn’t actually speak words, but the text boxes would have little pictures would generally convey their feelings.

Does that sound obnoxious? There wouldn't be a lot of dialogue because I always envisioned it as a more atmospheric experience, but do you think it’d be too annoying for a few cutscenes?

That sounds ****ing sick dude

I think that’s be a very engaging thematic and different way to convey the ideas of a plot that is much more intriguing than inconvenient

I have a little D6 headcanon I'd like to share.

According to word of Sega, Zor has access to special powers that none of the other D6 will ever use. As a result of his affinity for these forbidden, powerful techniques, Zavok sees a LOT of potential within his youngest protege, and believes he will be able to do a lot for the Lost Hex in the future. As a result, Zavok has decided, though not yet revealed, that Zor will be his successor as leader of the D6.

One thing Id love for my birthday is for my dad to drop me off at the mall, give me a 1000 buck spending limit, and let me go wild

So they speak in family guy cutaway gags? Or are they just one picture per feeling?

It’d basically be like this

But all the funny little symbols look like this

Ok but hear me out

The dialouge are cave paintings, but it transitions to a Family Guy cutaway gag.

It does this for every line.

We really don't need a Shrek 5...Shrek 4 ended the series decently.

This sounds kinda like Live A Live Prehistory and Bonk but I never played Bonk so I wouldn't know about similarities beyond cavemen. For what it's worth, Live a Live is one of the best RPGs ever made and the way Prehistory handles dialogue is admittedly charming as hell

Don't think anyone was really clamoring for a **** n Boots 2, and that became peak.


Let's just wait and see how things turn out.

And yet...

Megamind vs. The Doom Syndicate and Megamind Rules.

And as much as I actually enjoy it. People here did seem to give Ruby Gillman some flack calling it mid and people overall weren't impressed with KFP4, of course that was because of the creative differences behind the scenes of the actual better film we could've gotten instead.

The Last Wish was an anomaly given the track record DreamWorks is currently at.

Wasn't the Megamind stuff mostly handled by Dreamworks' TV division?

There might not be quite as much cause for concern about Shrek 5's quality with that in mind. Plus, the Bad Guys released shortly before the Last Wish and that film also (rightfully, imo) got pretty high praise.

The new Megaminds were handled by the Dreamworks TV division, so the comparison doesn't work here.

Yes Ruby Gillman and KFP4 were mid, but The last Wish and The Bad Guys were awesome, and The Wild Robot looks really cool.

The point is that Dreamworks has literally always been hit or miss, with high highs and low lows often back to back. There has never really been an era where they were putting out nothing but bangers with no flops for more than like, two years in a row.

I couldn't tell you if Shrek 5 will be a hit or a miss, I'm cautious about it myself. But you can't call The Last WIsh an anomaly, they're just doing what they've always done. Sometimes they make masterpieces, sometimes they make trash, and you can never tell when they're gonna do either.

Solid idea. Very Nintendo-like.

I need one of a prehistoric caveman simultaneously hitting the whip and naenae

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Shoot. How did I forget The Bad Guys? That film was fire.

I take back my statement, DreamWorks is currently hit or miss.

 

[TMNTSSB4]

not Nickelodeon and IDW casually making quick comic stories that continued the 2003 and 2012 TMNT series while also giving Rise an additional epilogue story

When you get down to it. Invincible is basically a fusion of DC Comics, and Dragon Ball Z with a dash of Star Wars.

Ah but then you can master every single artstyle if you can't stick to one

It kinda sucks that they're able to have these outbreak of usually game exclusive Pokemon, but they're limited time only.


Alolan Raichu is a pain to get otherwise, so the fact you either have to import one from Gen 7 or get the trade one from LGPE is obnoxious if you miss this limited time event.

Strange how a version of their mascot’s final form has become so rare.

Then again Raichu is kinda the neglected child of the franchise, so I guess it makes sense.

Centaurworld is one of these shows that seems to either get high praise or gets called a mixed bag.

I wasn't sure about watching it myself for those reasons, but uhh, then I saw this clip:

Spoiler: Spoilers for season 1, I think?

...Glad to see Netflix is continuing the longtime trend of having nightmarish and dead-serious villains in otherwise seemingly lighthearted animated fantasy/sci-fi adventure shows.

Between this and the fact that it's apparently got a similar tone to some seasons of Adventure Time, I'll be adding this to my backlog of shows to watch along with Castlevania and Invincible.

I haven’t gotten around to season 2 yet, but I will say that I really enjoyed season 1.

Some of the random or gross out humor gets a little overplayed, but I thought it was pretty dang good. The main protagonist is relatable in how disturbed she is by all the cartoony nonsense, but the centaurs are fun and you want her to ease up a bit. And the villain is really freaky.

The music is good too. Give it a watch sometime
