I have some issues with the "Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3" episode "Toddler Terrors of Time Travel", and I'm not counting the typical animation errors. It's all time travel based, and it's way too much for me to unload in a single post so I'll leave it here.

my office, probably
Just bought myself some legos for like, the first time ever. Three really cheap mini sets cause there was a real good deal on them and two of these were nice supplements to my Jakks Sonic collection.

This was a mistake because now my brain wants the Super Sonic & Super Shadow vs Biolizard set

Welp! It's clear as crystal that the rumors of a February Nintendo Direct were just not true.

Oh well. We still got our Pokémon Presents though.

I'm going to have to look into how to replace a Wii U gamepad's battery, since even when I play while it's plugged in, the orange light that normally shows that it's charging is flashing on and off. (so I assume there's something wrong with the battery)

Admittedly, I don't play my Wii U all that often, but there are a few games (like Super Mario 64 or Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze) that I'd like to finish playing. Playing it with the gamepad unplugged results in it running out of battery in less than a minute (which is already concerning), and when I have it plugged in, it doesn't seem to be holding a charge. (I have the gamepad off and plugged in, and the charging light keeps going on and off)

I've never had to replace a battery for something like this, so I hope it's easy enough; I've seen stories about people trying to replace the Switch's battery only for it to mess up the console. (plus, I'm not the type of person who'd take apart computers or consoles, and as far as I can tell, there aren't any official replacement batteries available)

Hope everyone wasn’t too excited for the Wonder Woman game as that is gone along with Monolith Productions.

Player First Games and WB San Diego are also shuttering.

one of the countless reasons to not announce a game years in advance…and to also not attempt to make a live service game…

and also how to not handle Wonder Woman cause she really needs some better treatment overall

This unfortunately was easy to see coming. When they removed the trailer for all the costumes they were putting into season 5, and not releasing the rest of characters who had been worked on or finished; I figured no one was actuallly working anymore.

This Also kind of supports the reports that To t was incredibly hard to work with and WB wanted him gone.

I think they still have the other game division, so they will probably recruit people from PFG and leave out the ones they weren’t satisfied with.

Yeah, let us hope some people from PFG find jobs elsewhere. Especially the art team as I enjoyed the art style Multiversus took on.

As for future WB Games titles? Bloomberg mentioned that the big four moving forward will be DC (edit: By DC, Warner means Batman), Game of Thrones, Harry Potter, and Mortal Kombat. Also expect more collabs with other games, Fortnite in particular should see a bevy of DC and maybe other WB skins soon.

I still think that Quest for Camelot is the most odd game choice for NSO.

I get Nintendo was the original publisher of the game way back when (I'd actually like to know why they did), but it wasn't a well received game and it being a tie-in to an also not well received movie.

I wish we got other good licensed games tbh.

The things I would do for Capcom legacy titles to hit the NSO. Ducktales, Aladdin for SNES, Aladdin for Genesis, Lion King, I’m sure there are others that I’m not thinking of.

But…where did the card come from?
Nothing.

Yeah, that’s right, before there was a universe there was just a card. In nothingness. Somehow always facedown. And then it flipped face up.

Its name is Nightshroud and it hates what it made.

I decided to experiment a bit with my drawing, and decided to draw and redesign an alien species I designed in Spore once - one that I designed to tie in with the lore of the Zeti.

See? Now there's a potential reason for why the Deadly Six did what they did. It's the old King Dedede scheme of trying to fight a stronger evil! In this case these freaky space crabs. I based them on the Zealot archetype in Spore, so they've got quite the xenophobic streak on them that contrasts heavily with the more peaceful Zeti.

This is just the beginning of the Zeti lore I'm building, for the record.
