We don’t need Bowser the Koopa where bowser is wielding Ak47s

Arlo holding a thread of hot takes for Nintendo and this one’s pretty bad:

Mario needs a total series reboot/reimagining it’s too soft and plays it way too safe I think it’s time for darker stories and more complex gameplay much like Sonic Frontiers did.

Mario is fine, if you want mature stories, there’s literally the rpgs. The mainline games are a staple genre that no one has been able to perfectly replicate( a few come close), and because of that unique perspective, it keeps these games fun and innovative in their own ways.

To KeytoAeris: Nintendo is for all ages. What is there not to understand?

This part of your comment just reminds me of the Shadow the Hedgehog game lol

Rule of thumb: never ask Nintendo fans for their opinion on anything ever.

Just don't.

Also on the subject of Mario, another prediction:

Mario Party Supper Stars 2. With no DLC this year and the massive success of the game, it feels like sequel bait at this point. We’ve had like 2 other Mario parties already on switch, so another is not out there.

None of the maps from the first game return. The roster returns but is good with like double characters. Around 50 more mini games. All the maps are from games after the 3rd one. Particularly focused on the love for 7 that a lot of people have.

This is like taking spaghetti from a plumber, which is fine by me!

But have you considered that Bowser Dual Wielding AKs would be kinda funny?

Sorry for being ignorant, but who was Ken Block?
Regardless of my ignorance, I hope his family take as much time as they need to grieve and recovery from their loss.

I'm watching Life After People.

Oh dear god, I don't want to even think about what would come to my dog if I and everyone else just disappeared. It's a horrifying thought.

Same with all other dogs across the world...

odd yet simplistically great reason

 

[Hadokeyblade]

After playing through Persona 5 Royal entirely with the Featherman suits on i want an entire spin off game that takes place in an alternate universe where the Persona characters are just Power rangers and they do Power ranger things.

 

[SnakeFighter64]

My brain was thinking of ways to make certain Sonic characters more unique to play as and my decision for Cream the Rabbit was literally "Pikmin but with Chao".

Like you collect animals from destroyed robots and whenever you cross a goal post you can convert your stock into either more chao or stronger chao. You can send them forth to attack and they have individual health meters not based on your ring tally. Getting hit before you cross a checkpoint makes you loose your animal stock though. Spawn enough Chao and you can reach the same levels of overpowered she was in Sonic Advance 2. She can still fly with her ears but now it's for less time than Tails because she's so young and smol. Unless you have enough Chao to help you out, then it can extend your flight time. A play-through with Cream would inject a nice element of resource management/strategy into typical Sonic platforming.

The downfall of EDP is insane. Dude was the king of the internet, you could not scroll a single thread on social media without him being used as a reaction inage/video. Then out of nowhere, he was exposed as a gigantic pedo, and now he has stage five kidney failure and is probably not gonna make it.

Wild.

Stop going against my narrative.

But if you really never heard of him, EDP wasn't really much of a Youtuber as he was of a social media star. He primarly trived on social media forums like Twitter or Instagram thanks to his memeability. He had an infamous "cupcake incident" which exposed him as a giant pedo, which I'm lowkey kinda suprised you haven't heard of given that it was a huge thing that American Youtubers covered (unless avoided every drama/news channel in their heyday or just forgot)

 

[Jondolio]

What narrative, that the US has a culture?

 

[TheMightyP]

My narrative that the USA is the only country ever, duh.

Also I added an explanation so like yeah read it or something

 

[Noipoi]

We absolutely have a culture.

Whether it’s good or not is debatable

Yeah I don't really follow channels that cover drama

I primarily watch comedy videos, media analysis videos that aren't too pretentious, or comedic media analysis videos that aren't too pretentious

It really depends on what place you go to and/or the ethnic/racial group you're associated with.

Something that people on the other side don't realize is America is ****ing gigantic, therw's like a gazillion cultures rolled into one place, which makes it both simultaniously beautiful and also a gigantic ****ing mess

I do wanna clarify that it's a positive overall... I think

 

[Z25]

I have managed to soft lock Sparks of Hope twice today with Bowser lol.

He’s to op for the game tbh. Love that he can be turned into basically a summoner character. Something that sets him apart from his other incarnations in Mario rpg styled spin offs.

Okay, I gotta rant for a minute

Spoiler: Pink Yoshi yells about things

Dear zoos, animal exhibits and many invertebrate fans in general:
CONSTANTLY PREACHING THAT SPIDERS ARE COOL AND WE SHOULDN'T FEAR THEM IS NOT GOING TO CURE CRIPPLING IRRATIONAL SPIDER PHOBIAS. ARACHNOPHOBIA IS NOT JUST A DISGUST OR HATRED OF SPIDERS, IT IS AN UNCONTROLLABLE FEELING OF FRIGHT REGARDING THEM AND IT CANNOT BE CURED BY CONSTANTLY SHOUTING THAT SPIDERS ARE "HARMLESS".
Yours, arachnophobes worldwide

I agree with you but I think those warnings are done for preventing you know, people actually killing or hurting spiders due to their fear, not to magically cure people's phobias.

 

[Pink Yoshi]

Which is totally fair. As much as I admittedly fear spiders itself, I agree that it's important to make it clear that spiders are important. Else we'd have a lot more houseflies, horseflies and other unpleasant flies buzzing around which is not an ideal world to live in.

Spiders just...well, they look scary (apart from jumping spiders which are actually pretty endearing). I think it's the way they move. It's like a disembodied hand crawling on your walls, ew...

The only time I’ve heard about EDP was when he was exposed, never before

Another game I feel like is a lock this year, is a new mystery dungeon. The remake sold well, it’s been awhile since the last one, and there’s plenty of Pokémon and new stories/gameplay changes they can use by borrowing from the main games.

Weather they remake time/darkness/sky or a whole new game I don’t know. Either way I think it be a smart and big enough spin-off to hold down some sales while DLC takes the place of a main game this year.
