Either my Pikmin skills are rusty or they at least made a legitimately challenging boss.


Because I lost exactly 50 Pikmin to this Arachnorb alone on my first battle with it.

I don't think I even lost that many Pikmin to a single enemy in Pikmin 3, barring maybe the Quaggled Mireclops.

You did good with this boss, Pikmin devs. Ya did good. Even the theme music stands out as a better song among Pikmin 4's mostly atmospheric and quieter soundtrack, too.

I was laughing my ass off fighting this guy. Easily one of the coolest enemies in the series imo.

Getting closer to the endgame of P4. This is some good stuff

I've had the identity of the killer spoiled to me years ago (it's kind of hard not to know if you take so much as a glance at the Persona fandom online) so I'm happy to report that the knowledge doesn't really hurt the impact of the twist and also that they're shaping up to be an interesting character even when you remove the shock factor

I see people saying the timeline for Deadpool and Wolverine doesn’t make sense and I disagree. It’s really simple as Loki already established this.

The timelines all operate at their end and beginning at the same time. We saw he who remains explain this. If you went to the past from a destroyed future, the earth would still exist as it was until that end point. And even then it still sticks around until the TVA pruned the universe or it naturally died out.

This means that yes Logan happened in Wade’s earth, but he still died. His universe always had the ticking time bomb attached to it, because that moment already happened when these films started. Hence why cables Time Machine was not a problem for the TVA.

So the reason why Deadpool knows about the Logan movie is because of his fourth wall powers, not because it already happened in his timeline. He knows it happened later in his timeline though. Hence why he had to time travel to get to that moment.

As for Laura. She’s either a varient with a basically similar backstory, or she’s also from the future and doesn’t realize she’s from Deadpool’s universe. Hence why the TVA just let her live her life there.

Either her timeline died or she’s from Deadpool’s timeline, just in the future. A future that has diverted them into an alternate history where their Logan still died, but the world continues past there because the TVA are able to fix these timelines with Loki now.

Bit if a long explanation , but I think that explains it well enough.

Happy TWEWY day! Character designer Gen Kobayashi made some beautiful art for its 17th (and NEO's 3rd) anniversary.

Yeah, it's pretty much impossible to play P4 nowadays without knowing the twist. But it's a testament to the game's writing that it still holds up despite that. Game's a classic for sure, though I prefer P3 myself.

I hate that damn song lmao (2007 has a lot of other stinkers too with big blunders from Akon and Avril Lavigne, but it also had MCR so that makes up ten-fold lol)

Honestly Sean Kingston was the real enemy of that era of pop music, not Justin Bieber

I've decided to abandon my playthrough of Nintendo Land's Metroid Blast and just move onto Metroid Prime 2: Echoes (trilogy version)

yeah I’m pretty sure Laura is the same one as in Logan due to the movie taking place in the Deadpool timeline (just countless years later), which would explain why she showed up with the Pool crew at the end of the movie. It does help with making the chance of her being the main Wolverine of the MCU more likely thankfully.

Tho it does make me curious over how the 2 X-Men timelines still manage to stay separate despite the Deadpool/Logan factor connecting them both together…and if Laura will pull a Future Trunks and be unaffected by the inevitable Logan situation if it occurs…or perhaps it already happened during the 6 year period…

Also the Blade joke about him being the only one was an underrated joke…and all of Gambit and Johnny was amazing

RDJ Dr. Doom is such a weird casting choice that I don't think he is playing the real Dr. Doom and is just playing a Multiverse variant because if not then what the hell.

So what is Doom gonna be an evil Stark?

That’s kinda weird. I guess they just really wanted RDJ back to save the MCU. Feels kinda desperate ngl :dkmelee:

I’m still gonna watch it

Marvel just has to say a name of a character people liked in the 90s and all of a sudden everyone is back on their hype trains.

On one hand, good for them, on the other hand... what happened to people being tired of the MCU?

First of all, to say people only cared about Doom in the 90s is just untrue. I will be adding this to my collection of minor but still very silly Snake Takes.

Secondly-

It’s because we all remember when the MCU was the coolest thing in the world and we want to believe they can bring that feeling back.

Nah I legit this hate RDJ as Doom, you'd think Disney owning Star Wars would have someone go "Hey why don't we get multiple actors for Doom like what happened with Darth Vader so we can get a perfect booming voice" so now instead we'll have constant scenes of Doom taking off his mask for people to clap and scream because omg it evil Iron Man. Any and all interest I had in an MCU Doom has faded away entirely, even if what I wanted, a movie about Doom' origins with him as a villain protagonist, wasn't super likely anyway

I don’t think anybody expected so much to have changed for the MCU once Kang debuted in Loki…way too much ****ing happened within 3 years for so many changes to occur

I lost interest in the MCU when DC (briefly) started making good movies and i realized what it's like to actually care about the superhero you're watching a movie of. Like... Infinity War and Endgame did nothing for me. My interest bottomed out and left. I tried to get back into it by watching WandaVision but that show ****ed me up by the end. So... kinda wish the mcu would just shrivel up and die.

See, and I’m not sure if you know this, but when normal people don’t like something they just ignore it. They don’t hope it dies so nobody who actually likes it can enjoy it anymore. Y’know, it’s called empathy. Understanding the feelings of others even if they don’t align with yours.

It’s a good thing you aren’t in charge of any studio cuz you’d make a lot of enemies :nifty:
