We're triumphantly picking up microphones and watching them spin slightly above our open palms tomorrow when @mattcornah.bsky.social returns to the #Kongversation! We'll discuss Star Fox Adventures on Switch 2 and what it feels like to play Rare's Nintendo console swansong nearly 25 years later!
Prince Tricky talks to Fox McCloud by a campfire in SnowHorn Wastes.

"...STAY command and I'll sit on the Switch for you."

It probably wasn't the stupidest gimmick to come out of Nintendo but it sure was up there! I remember regularly taking it into work with me back in 2010 and everyone thinking I was a late arrival to the Tamagotchi craze or something. THEY WEREN'T TO KNOW I WAS WALKING MY PORYGON-Z THANK YOU.

It's probably the one I have the happiest memories of. Do you still have your POKÉWALKER?

Despite how many people claim they're prepared to die on them, most hills in Britain (about 99.3%*) remain entirely corpse-free. * Statistic taken from Brilliant Hill Stats Dot Com, which is a real website probably.

Hah! Tell the truth, how long have you had "K. Mumsy" in your locker, just waiting to go? (Sat in your B. Locker, perhaps I should say.)

To a whole generation of British people "Aztec" just means old temples and loads of sand.

THEORY: The level "Angry Aztec" from off of Donkey Kong 64 is called this, not because of anything to do with the Aztec civilisation, but because of the Aztec Zone from off of the 1990s Channel 4 game show The Crystal Maze.
Donkey Kong (tie wearing gorilla) stood by some stairs leading to an old temple in a sandy environment. The temple door has a picture of a llama on it. At the foot of the stairs there is a circular pad with his face on it. There are also bananas on the steps, which is an accident waiting to happen if you ask me.The Aztec Zone from off of the Crystal Maze. Old temples in a sandy environment.

Good choices! Though I remember someone on DK Vine (possibly Hyle come to think of it) suggesting Funky should be Captain Jack. Does that break the rules?

Huge astronomy news! Not only has Pluto been reinstated as a planet, it is now larger than Saturn and Uranus. Source: children's ruler I found in a shop.
A children's ruler decorated with images of celestial objects (pictured: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto) against a starry backdrop. You can't tell from the picture but it has a funky 3D effect when you move it around, it's amazing.

I like to listen it on a loop whilst staring at this picture. Days, I've lost.
Tiptup the Turtle and Bumper the Badger (pre-arrest) in small planes dodging a missile attack on a distant planet. You can tell it's another planet because the sky is red and the rocks are purple.

Post a computer game creature you'd quite like to have as a pet. I want one of these, please.

There should be a legal requirement not to label “long term online rental until the platform loses rights” as “Buy”. Call it what it is, “long rental”. At which point companies are incentivised to figure out how to make buy *mean* buy, or else lose sales to cheaper short rental and physical media.

Instead of capslock we should make it so that letters are capitalised if you PRESS REALLY HARD on the keys. Can someone sort that out? Okay, thanks.

Oh, I love The Being That Claimed To Be God in Star Trek V! I'm holding out for a The Being That Claimed To Be God in Star Trek V spin-off series - presumably called "Star Trek: The Adventures of the Being That Claimed To Be God in Star Trek V".

I have an un-posted draft on here which begins "when I am World King" and then elaborates no further. This is probably an excellent argument for why I should not be World King.

This is how money should work in real life. Once you hit 99999 it just won't let you have anymore, that's your lot.

I'm on my holiday in the Scottish highlands this week and I've just seen something in the loch! This blows the whole thing wide open.
A strange creature apparently emerging from a loch. Some might say it looks very much like a human hand but to them I say SHUT YOUR FACE.

Hi Americans! In honour of your big birthday I have made a list of the BEST AMERICAN THINGS. • That Wesley Willis song about McDonald's • Clippy the Microsoft paperclip • The American woman who says "battery low" in my Bluetooth headphones • Worf off of Star Trek Okay, that's the end of the list.

Funny how the first three episodes of Star Trek (broadcast order, obvs) are "a person with magic powers has infiltrated the ship", "a person with magic powers has infiltrated the ship", and "a person with magic powers has infiltrated the ship".

There's something uniquely gratifying about someone running with a joke you've made. Especially if they produce a topper that's much funnier. 😁
