If Nintendo can casually announce Xenoblade Chronicles X on a random day, I would say the chances of Metroid Prime 2 & 3 happening are really good.
I’m betting on F-Zero GX myself. Like I said before, right before the investor meeting on November 5, I feel like anything goes


Anyone got any major plans for Halloween? My family and I are just passing out candy again, but we've decorated our yard even more than we have in recent years.

We might also watch at least one more horror movie to celebrate the occasion. If nothing else, the original 1978 Halloween.
Have an interview (phone) for a cybersecurity position around afternoon. Gonna try to stream a spoopy game afterward, undecided on which

I wanna also try to watch the A Quiet Place movies

I really wish that, after you beat the stage for the first time, you could toggle off Black Doom’s intrusions into the levels in Shadow Gens. The levels would flow so much better if you didn’t have to suddenly go through a section of phantom ruby radical highway.

Yes, I know black doom doesn’t use the phantom ruby. But the way he distorts the level kind of looks like how infinite used the phantom ruby in forces.

I kinda get why we don't talk about shipping here, it's very much a niche fandom thing that doesn't usually leak onto our funny fighting game forum.

But man if I don't wanna talk about villain ships right now. Zor x Zeena is my old favorite and Valmont x Riya is my new thing. I love an evil love.

I wouldn't say it's a niche fandom thing, I think it's moreso that a lot of us are boring ass adults with 9 to 5s and as such, lack the whimsy to discuss why we want fictional characters to smooch.

Additionally: when I have the time to discuss why I want two fictional characters to smooch, I'm usually busy writing them smooching.

Be the change you want to see in the world and stuff.

Honestly I'm too traumatized by shipping culture to ever wanna talk about them

Decided to download TCG Pocket. Got these 3 in back to back packs:

It’s fun so far and a neat way to experience the TCG without crazy investment. Loving the artwork so far.

Believe you me, if I could, I'd be writing stuff about Valmont and Riya being evilly in love and messing with cartoon Jackie Chan right now. Only problem is, how the heck do you write a canonical Hollywood actress winding up in the middle of Chinatown, meeting a former crime boss, and deciding to ditch her Hollywood career to mess with a martial artist? I wanna write the actual affection but setting up is haaaaaaaard.

And that's completely fair. I have history with the Total Drama fandom - I know first hand how bad shipping wars can get.

Perhaps the main reason I haven't gotten into a shipping war in ages is because nobody cares enough about the Deadly Six to bicker about shipping them, and I'll be darned if anyone else here has thought about Jackie Chan Adventures in YEARS before I got on my Valmont kick.

BTW, whenever I find a new ship I immediately start listening to a bunch of songs to find some that'd fit my new ship (music is one of my favorite ways of hyperfixating) and I will tell you now, this particular song is Valmont x Riya word-for-word

About time I got a pfp of my hyperfixation of the moment.

He looks awesome in this shot. This comes from season 1 before his fall from grace into the adorable pathetic criminal that I want to hug so much in the later seasons. But seeing Valmont be genuinely threatening is really fun too! He makes for a great enemy on equal footing with Jackie Chan as opposed to the gods, demons and sorcerers he ends up fighting in more intense episodes.

Also got this cute eevee card which was really cool:

He seems to be more interested in the Fire Stone than the Water Stone.

He knows...but he didn't notice that that copypasta requires the Vaporeon to be female and thus he should be safe. Oh well, at least the clean Flareon version of the copypasta doesn't require Flareon to be female for snuggles.

More pokemon leaks reveal two scrapped alolan forms potentially. As the inspirations for these forms are straight up things that are already alolan Pokemon.

its water fairy dewgong and fighting snorlax based on the coconut crab

Later is why I I think it’s a mistranslation. Or Gamefreak was tripping lol

And here we see even more of nature evolving into crabs.

Nintendo what the **** once again this week
Wait, I have a feeling that wherever the leakers who are trying to leak the Switch 2 are getting their news from, they are getting information about something different and are just getting something along the lines of "a new Nintendo thing is coming". I don't know if the leakers are misinterpreting what they get or if Nintendo is trying to deceive them, but something seems wrong either way, here.

This is cool but I wish there was a web version for PC, a phone app won't help me much when I want to listen to music while playing Minecraft or something (so the music player mod + YouTube and SoundCloud it still is).

It'd also be much nicer if it were free.

Monday: Mature N64 games dropped only days after Banjo-Tooie did
Tuesday: Xenoblade Chronicles X Switch port announced without warning
Wednesday: An official Nintendo music service

And we're less than a week away from Nintendo's investors briefing. They really are spoiling us this week so far and I can't imagine what more they have planned.
