Can't believe Nintendo Museum skipped Pokémon X and Y.
It has something to do with Legends Z-A?

It’s not that creepy. It’s just a whale.

The only thing stopping me from immediately buying Sonic X Shadow Generations is a Chao Garden

…

SEEEEEGAAAAAAA!​

 

[HyperSomari64]

Is the Nintendo Museum going to have a display for the Triforce arcade system board?

I mean, it was a collaboration between Nintendo, Sega and Namco.

I still don’t get why people are so obsessed with Chao Gardens. I played the SA games and barely touched it. Couldn’t even figure out how to hatch a Chao until like… endgame of SA2’s third playthrough.

The Acolytes got cancelled…that was fast

kinda obvious,Star Wars fans hated so much that series,and the series disrespect the George Lucas' franchise

You should try listening to people that aren't dumbass rage baiters getting upset over a Glup ****to's birthday being changed.

 

[Hex D. Jess]

The reason The Acolyte got cancelled is because Disney milked the Star Wars brand dry and no one cares anymore.

Seriously I can't stress enough how the oversaturation of content makes me want to vomit even when I don't watch any of it, it's actively making me like the franchise less

Announcing Borderlands 4 after the movie flopped is the funniest joke Borderlands has ever done.

it's another pvp hero shooter. It's "Peak" isn't very high.

 

[Pink Yoshi]

You wanna know my hot take? I think Kirby and the Forgotten Land is the best Ratchet and Clank game we've gotten since 2005.

Yes it IS obviously a Kirby game, just in the Third Dimension, but a lot of its elements DID remind me of Ratchet and Clank. Kirby has upgradable 'weapons' (aka his copy abilities) just like modern Ratchet and Clank games (heck, he even got a gun) and explores a different, non-Popstar world that is very alien in its design. In addition, the story of the game takes a lot more of a sci-fi angle, with the ultimate antagonist being VERY alien in appearance, and having quite the sci-fi horror motive.

What makes this game work so much better than modern Ratchet and Clank, though, is that the storytelling doesn't feel at all disrespectful to past Kirby stories, nor does it forget about past Kirby theming or traditions despite the shift to 3D. It still feels like it fits in wonderfully with Kirby's trademark Deep Lore™ and horrifying eldritch entities. As opposed to modern Ratchet and Clank games, which feel like they're actively ashamed of the series' roots with their pivot to stories covering ALTERNATE DIMENSIONS and A TIME-TRAVELLING CLOCK and CLANK'S FATHER and RATCHET IS THE LAST LOMBAX EXCEPT WHEN HE ISN'T and its constant-freaking-abandonment-of-90%-of-characters, as well as how it effectively abandoned the themes of criticizing capitalism and consumerist culture, a HUGE draw of the first few games. #HaShTaGgAdGeTrOn

Yes, Kirby has deep lore and excellent storytelling, but it's not shoved in the faces of players, it's used to effectively add flavor and meaning to the Kirby universe. It's really quite subtle.

Then again, it's probably not a fair comparison, cuz Kirby isn't as strictly driven by continuity as Ratchet and Clank is. But Ratchet and Clank's continuity-driven nature only makes the fact it regularly abandons important characters all the more glaring. ANGELA SHOULD HAVE BEEN A MAINSTAY AND I'M DYING ON THAT HILL.

God, I'm sorry, I just needed to get that out there. To end off on a positive note, Forgotten Land really helped me appreciate the Kirby franchise a lot more. I didn't really think about Kirby much as opposed to Mario or Fire Emblem or Pokemon before its release (and I've never really formed any attachment to the character himself despite his reputation as a Very Powerful Creature), but now I can say I totally understand what makes the series so special.

 

[TMNTSSB4]

a ****ing Joker boss fight in Reload oh my ****

 

[KingofPhantoms]

It’s not that creepy. It’s just a whale.

Fair enough. I think what gets most people about it are it's expression and the sheer size of the animatronic.

Also, fun fact: the park closed in the late 60s and has long since been demolished, but whale animatronic is still sitting there underwater in the lake to this day, fully intact and in largely good condition.

Honestly was kind of surprised his Mark of the Wolves costume isn't his primary considering the timeline. Glad it's still there though.

Bruh Joker is a superboss in P3R's DLC, I'm gonna obliterate that twink

In Terry's Stage I noticed Joe, Blue Mary and It's hard to tell with the lighting but I think Roxy from Final Fight is also there.

 

[Hex D. Jess]

Unlike Teddie who I liked for a bit, I want to toss Morgana onto the train tracks

Please dont Obliterate that twink. Akechi needs him

If things could not get any worse for Sony.

Morgana offends me on a personal level, not because of anything he says, but he does a Kamen Rider reference, he brings great dishonour to that franchise's name

Please dont Obliterate that twink. Akechi needs him

Sorry but Aigis will curbstomp him, as they say

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

I juat bit into a potato so bad that it ruined my whole meal for me and now im pissed because im hungry and all thats left in my bowl are some sour tasting potatos

 

[Z25]

As someone who’s played the last alpha test, it’s definitely way better than most hero shooters. Also it’s already ahead of overwatch by not making you buy the characters. A stupid choice that ruined 2 out of the gate. I played 100 of hours on overwatch and rivals just has way more potential imo. Between the team up mechanics, way it handles its micro transactions, the general gameplay and styles for everyone, etc. feels like they built upon everything they worked with overwatch and made it better.

To be completely fair Lord and Miller have proven themselves to not be good at actually managing creative projects after the Spider-Verse fiasco. Still, I do hope they can at least finish that trilogy

 

[cashregister9]

These Mihoyo games that appear at the Keighley events are always the ones I dread seeing the most because I am just plain sick of hearing about these games.

Whilst I do agree with you the bolded and like you said I'd probably expect them to helm the final Spider-Verse film at least.

In addition, Mai Shiranui is revealed as the latest addition for Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves.

 

[Wario Bros.]

I don't know how exactly how the Backyard Sports series is returning, but I'd be perfectly fine if it's just ports of the early games.

Finally a design they can use in Smash

I'd make a "whoa, phrasing" joke, but that was 100% the intent behind it lol.

I still don’t get why people are so obsessed with Chao Gardens. I played the SA games and barely touched it. Couldn’t even figure out how to hatch a Chao until like… endgame of SA2’s third playthrough.

Disclaimer in that I'm like, the furthest thing from a Sonic fan, I really don't care much, at all, about the series.


But it's just a fun little side, sim mode.


Think of it like a tamogatchi. It's not MY cup of tea personally, but people love little things where they can grow a creature.

We got Genshin Impact on Xbox before Genshin Impact on Switch.

Strange times we live in.

Oh, and the upcoming Indiana Jones game will come to Playstation 5 in Spring 2025.

They say the PS5 has no games. This is true, but somehow Xbox has less than zero games.
