It's totally fine to be worried about this year, especially with the eletrump in the room. But, dwelling on your worries is only gonna make you feel awful. And there's a lot about this year to be excited about. New movies, new games (including Legends ZA!), new experiences just waiting to be made! And personally, my big hope: Exotic Escapade potentially coming out this year!

It's alright to be afraid. But remember, every year brings not just bad, but good things too. And I think it's good to look forward to those important things.

Aside from my usual 'joymongering' though...

Soo, i understand ya, but all that requires money. And I know yall are sick of hearing about it, but the job market is

Rats. Forgot about money. How long has the job market been ruff for?

That aside, Exotic Escapade is definitely not gonna require money to watch. Disventure Camp doesn't require money to watch, either.

HINT HINT

 

[Noipoi]

I'm not worried about 2025. But I also take anxiety pills so I don't really worry about anything.

Edit: except Noipoi. He's a top tier concern to me.

Yes

Fear me

If we had gotten a season 3 of ultimate, which characters would have been your ideal season 3?

Hatsune Miku as the last one because you gotta save the best for last.

For the others, Geno, either Sans with Papyrus or Frisk on their own (with a Chara alt.), Isaac (Binding of Isaac, I’m sorry Golden Sun), Isaac (nevermind Golden Sun is here too), and maybe Shadow or Tails.

I’m not set in stone on the Isaacs but I think it would be funny + I would like to see them both, I really like TBoI Isaac and I think Golden Sun Isaac is cool too but I’d mostly like him for his fans since I’m not attached to him (that could potentially change; I have Golden Sun and I liked the little I played so far, but I haven’t gotten back to it).

If we got a Pokémon, I would really love if they gave us Gengar, but if it has to be a Gen 8 Pokémon, then I’m not sure but maybe Calyrex, Falinks, Hattena or Impidimp I dunno

edit: I forgot Dragapult, it would also be a good choice for a Gen 8 ‘mon.

Crash, Ribbon Girl, Viridi, Grima the Fell Dragon, Zeena and Ratchet and Clank

Let chaos reign on the community

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Tbh I wouldn't begin to know what a top 5 most wanted would look like, let alone a third wave of DLC

 

[Hex D. Jess]

I for one am content with the 89 character roster. I guess I could throw in a couple characters from games I like but tbh I don't need any more

 

[WeirdChillFever]

Any combo of 5-6 from my Signature tbh

 

[Hex D. Jess]

Actually if I had to pick:

Rayman, Phoenix Wright, Shadow, Isaac, Decidueye

That's a perfect roster right there, 100/10

 

[cashregister9]

Any combo of 5-6 from my Signature tbh

Actually if I'm being really real

It's any combo of 5-6 from this list I made when I was really bored would make me happy

 

[KingofPhantoms]

Anyone have some recommendations for some good couch co-op games for the PS5?

 

[Cutie Gwen]

I think Haruka is from idolmaster but who's Raguna?

 

[cashregister9]

I think Haruka is from idolmaster but who's Raguna?

The main character of Rune Factory 1 and Rune Factory Frontier

 

[Pink Yoshi]

Here's a selection of moves that would become Love type

Obviously it'd also see a LOT of brand new moves being added. Idk if I missed any, but I checked the Normal and Fairy move lists specifically cuz I knew they had some moves I'd want to change.

Return would have been PERFECT for the Love type, but it's not in the games anymore

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

I love the way Luigi goes Waow in Brothership

 

[Pink Yoshi]

What hurts the most for me about BDSP is the fact they completely botched a chance to make one of my favorite Pokemon towns into the most beautiful things on the Switch

I'm almost always hanging out in Floaroma Town when I'm bored in Platinum because...y'know, Pink Yoshi likey flowers, and I would've loved to see it with a serious graphical upgrade

This, though?

Spoiler: The heck is this?

Mine would pretty much be this but replacing Urshifu with some version of Impa. (partially because I'm not familiar with Urshifu, partially because I feel like Zelda is LOOOOOOOOOOOONG overdue for a unique newcomer) If the Hyrule Warriors and Age of Calamity versions aren't options due to some kind of shenanigans with Koei-Tecmo, then the Skyward Sword version seems like a good fit.

(I'd like to see Ryu Hayabusa in Smash, but I don't know if I'd replace any of the characters in there with him - I'm assuming at least one first party character is mandatory, my top three most-wanted characters are Geno, Dante, and Doomguy, a second Sonic character seems like something that we need eventually (and Eggman seems like a lot of fun), and Crash seems like a natural fit, though if I had to pick one, it would probably be him)

 

[Noipoi]

Remember when we we all thought they’d replace Colleen O’Shaugnessy with Tom Holland in Sonic 2?

Dante was actually a last minute sub-in for me. Originally I had another first party there. I thought about doing Tingle, but I had settled on doing a Rhythm Heaven character. Then I remembered what people often told me about Smash's online hindering any rhythm based fighter inherantly so I ditched them.

lol. I tried to do it but I don't have enough hours logged on my PS4 to be able to.

Makes sense, I never use the hunk of junk and I pray for the day all of it's exclusives are on PC so I can sell the damnable thing

 

[Wario Bros.]

I just beat Arzette: The Jewel of Faramore. A really fun game and proves those games in the style of the CD-i Zelda games can be great gameplay-wise.

I played the whole game using only the Philips CD-i inspired controller designed for this game, which was REALLY great, responsive, and enhanced the experience.

Random thought. Sword and shields e4 theme is good and is drug down by the **** ass cheering that happens later on in the song

Oh also I downloaded MH Rise and Sunbreak for Switch.

It was 20 bucks.

Now I turn to Steam and the PS4 Store cause my Switch is running out of space.

 

[Noipoi]

With the Sonic movies going strong and the Mario movie making a billion dollars, I’m surprised we haven’t heard anything else from Pokemon. Detective Pikachu didn’t set the world on fire but it did pretty good.

Weren’t there rumors about a live action Red/Blue project with Netflix? Wonder if that’ll actually happen.

Detective Pikachu deserves some flowers, iirc it was the first video game movie to be both critically and commercially successful.

And as a Pokemon fan, I never saw the movie and I feel like I'm a fake fan now

Rampage (2018): Am I a joke to you?

Maybe not a exact hit, but it did do decently.

$428m against a $120m-$140m dollar budget.

 

[Z25]

So the first 2 new characters for Multiversus have leaked for the next season and…

Spoiler

Kind of bad picks tbh. It’s Aquaman and Lola bunny.

I like Lola and the best version was the looney tunes show version. So if they take from that it be neat, but even so, how is she in this game before Daffy? Especially when they already have 2 other looney tunes reps besides bugs.
