drill run + hone claws is such a cool combo but unfortunately excadrill gets earthquake + swords dance well before its signature move...

if hollow knight continues past silksong, i hope they treat the title like the fire emblem, where every installment has a clear and distinct hollow knight, even if the story doesnt explicitly refer to it by that name

Looking at encounter tables tickles me sometimes. someone fat fingered 31 instead of 36 for no reason on Route 9 BW. In Melemele Meadows, all encounters are 9-12 for SM and Ultra Sun, but and 10-12 for Ultra Moon.

for a vanilla pokemon game, not a romhack actually designed around nuzlocke rules, setting your level cap and party size to the next gym leaders LOWEST level pokemon and party size is so much more interesting and difficult all my pokemon are at the cap, and the bottom two tipped over

nintendo is terminally avoidant of having their characters go through permanent physical change to match their character growth if i had a nickel for every time a nintendo protagonist got their body hijacked by an alien virus, but came out the other side completely unscathed...

whenever nintendo releases a complete 9+/10 singleplayer title, they inevitably release some bullshit like "luigis mansion 3 + polterpups pizzaria" no one wanted that retroactively breaks the entire game but when you ask nintendo to fix the glaring issues in their brand new game they go

The original struggled with the overall quality of its stock images, so A for Effort 2 immediately surpasses it by shifting the focus onto the live band. Its really cool that the band members are actually animated to the music! And the bassist... I gotta break character here uh waow...
