Gotten around to reading my next book, Claw by Katie Berry. As well as getting to playing more of God of War: Ragnarok and Smash Bros. Ultimate. Depending, might read another chapter tonight as well as play more Ragnarok.

Mamboo07 Zinith My bros, one of these times perhaps we could play Smash.

Or anyone here in general.

I finally got the Metroid Prime remaster and I played it all day

You are telling me a Remaster of one of the most critically acclaimed games of all time is good ?

No biggie man, in the chance you eventually do. Let me know if your up for it.

NBC channel will be showing "exclusive content" from the Mario movie during the airing of Despicable Me 3 tomorrow.

Unsure if I'll check it out since I'm limiting myself on seeing new clips before I see the movie itself but sounds cool.

March Smashness bracket update:
Again, I do appreciate everyone participating once again, votes were way up once again. These battles... weren't even close, all wins were by good-significant margin, but I bet these next matchups are gonna be significantly closer. Let's look at the standings...

Yeah, I know some of these are gonna be TOUGH, and again, randomized seeding, but I think this worked for the better. Now for some stats:
Votes: 27 (Up from 19)
Closest match: Kirby vs Fire Emblem. Kirby still won by over 60%, so uh yeah. FE didn't stand a chance
Biggest Blowout: Zelda vs Animal Crossing: Animal Crossing didn't even get 15% of the vote.
No real upsets to be found.

And now the choices get tough

And now the choices get tough

Metroid vs Castlevania may genuinelly be the toughest one yet imo.

Update: it's early but it seems the tough one to y'all is not that.

I should try ranked matches rather than free battles in Ninjala some day.

Corner you about the ethics of emulation (you emulated a game that's $3000 on Ebay)

someone at SmackDown has a sign that says “Persona 3 Could Sure Use A Remake”

This really sucks. He’s great in John Wick and he made a really fun Wesker in the resident show last year. He was the best part of that. I hope he rests in peace.

Found a way to get those old SpongeBob point and click adventure games running on my current computer. That's a nice bit of nostalgia right there.....

Since they were all adaptations of the main console platformers... now I want a point and click adventure based on Cosmic Shake.

Netflix just cancelled a kid's show cause of a non-binary bison.

 

[Hadokeyblade]

I wasnt prepared for that small reveal at the end of the newest Pokemon episode.

Where the Latias that's been stalking Ash and the gang is the Latias he saw at the end of Pokemon movie 5.

Not the one that kissed him the one he saw as he was leaving the city in that movie. Th one that just sort of materialized after the Latios in the movie died.

This is pretty neat:

Not sure if I agree with his assessment there, given how loose the anime has been with plot holes and contradicting itself, unless I'm missing some sort of obscure interview. Definitely more likely canon than not, but there was certainly plenty of room for doubt.

I kind of regret missing out watching this live (episode was delayed a hour from the usual schedule), but I had the biggest smile on my face waking up this morning and seeing the episode pictures on Serebii. Movie 5/Heroes is tied with Movie 8/Lucario for being my favorite of the film series. I still have the original DVD release I got for my birthday almost two decades ago, so I know I'm going to make some time and re-watch it this weekend.

Kind of bummed that Ash didn't have one of the two as his finale catch, but that surprise ending leaves me plenty content. I know they did a poll in Japan in 2021 for favorite movies and that it won as the favorite of the original series, so I get the feeling that influenced a lot of the direction they chose to go in for this finale series.

Only one more episode to go...

Close! They're actually arguing whether it's ethically justifiable to erase the free will of the entire world without their consent to create a utopia.

I showcased my WIP to several developers, and one said I should look into Power Stone for ideas.

Can I say this game as such a delightful artstyle? At least for the artwork, it's charming

Here is a little something.

It says here that Sonic Frontiers won an award at the Famistu Dengeki Game Awards.

I don’t know why it became so hard to get herba mythical, but this is a pain to farm them to use egg power 3 to get shiny rowlett faster.

 

[SnakeFighter64]

I will never understand why Zeku isn't in SFV's Alpha Arcade Route since that's the first game we saw him in. Or why you can't use Eleven in ANY arcade mode routes.

looks like SMG4 is going through a sort of soft reboot

Lowkey kinda expected given that this site is filled with ahem Nintendo fans, but me personally, I would vote KH over Sonic and maybe DQ over Castlevania. However, I do not do any voting unless it's a tiebreaker.

I will say, I am surprised Castlevania lasted this long, I for sure thought it lose to Splatoon round 1.

 

[CannonStreak]

Yeah, I noticed.

Spoiler: Spoiler alert for the video today

It was sad that the castle was lost. They said they would make a new one. It would probably include a computer room for SMG4.

If the new castle is too big, though, SMG4 will have to Find the Computer Room!

that and I think they just wrote off Peach…unless she magically manages to climb out of the depths of internet hell. Tho I do wish Mario and Meggy were the bffs of the group instead of Mario and SMG4 (have him transition to being closer to SMG3 as besties if anything)
