I think it may be time for Disney to consider doing a Kingdom Hearts film or series.

But then again, Bob Iger is not wrong with his statement.

Iirc, it's likely a remake of FE4 that was supposed to come out before Engage.

Fire Emblem is huge nowadays, so strike the iron while it's hot.
Whatever. I don’t get how something so technically and smart-brained can be so popular.

I actually might play Engage. The use of classic characters appeals to me. But I’m still not sure because I’m scared of difficulty and strategy. I could play the Mario + Rabbids games pretty well though.

Idk what you mean by that, but it's popularirty can be attributed to:

1. FE's popularity with the Smash community
2. Anime is huge nowadays
3. RPGs are huge nowadays
4. It's fun to many
The first choice was exactly how I became a fan of the Fire Emblem franchise ever since Marth and Roy's inclusion in Super Smash Bros. Melee.

You have to think a lot and like make strategies and stuff to even play. That’s not very accessible to the average person.

5. They added more modes and eventually mechanics that made the games accessible to people otherwise turned off by permadeath.
6. Dating Sim/Matchmaking elements were elevated
7. They actually marketed the games
8. All of the above happened with a game they released worldwide and not just a Japan only remake
9. Even without casual mode or rewinds, all but the Conquest route, Cindered Shadows DLC and Fell Xenologue DLC were really easy.

Awakening, Birthright, Revelation, Houses and Engage are piss easy.
Awakening and Houses especially just let you build stupidly OP characters.

I mean you also gotta remember that the average person doesn't play single player games like that. Tactical RPGs are pretty niche, so FE wouldn't be on their radar regardless. So Nintendo is smart, they don't market it to the nuclear family, they go for the nerdy weebs which is a very sizable market in their own right, and it paying off, Three Houses sold pretty well and they're doing the same tactic for Xenoblade which is expanding in popularity.

Oh man just glancing at TotK reviews, they seem to be emphasizing sidequests and how much longer the playtime is which in turn implies there's just a lot more to do. This really is the Majora to BotW's OoT
Too bad they didn’t bring back transformation masks but this time with the dead champions. Come on! It was right there!

Bayonetta Origins should’ve released before Bayo 3 cause my god does it make 3’s story make more sense for the most part (even makes sense out of the Cerezita/Luka love connection that many people hate)

I’m never gonna be okay with them straightening her out, no matter what origins says. She went to hell and back for Jeanne and always treated Luka like a child. Kamiya is just homophobic.

I talked about Seven Deadly Sins this week, and I actually realized that I watch too many good shows so I decided to pick it back up for a hatewatch

I then remembered why I only watch good shows

Yesterday the N64 Switch Online app got an update.

All it did was fix a bug in Pokémon Stadium where some of the moves of rental Pokémon would incorrectly show as illegal moves.

Bees are okay in my book, they pollinate flowers and are generally pretty chill

Hornets on the other hand can go straight to hell, and I'll gladly help them get there if I see one near me and have an opening
