for some reason Wii Sports also does this if you have a corrupted save file, iirc

Hey I think it should be said with the next round of "Discord age verification" scares and panic coming around Do NOT drop everything and run to a website you heard about 30 min ago and had not looked into at all The amount of vibe coded slop preying upon people's worry is alarming

i hate that alt text has become a "meme". i hate that alt text accessibility has become a thing for ableds to circlejerk about. accessibility is just a fucking punchline that they can use on the poor whiny disableds who talk back too much

People need to grasp that yes, while Bruce Straley did co-direct stuff like The Last of Us and Uncharted 2 & 4, he hasn't worked at Naughty Dog since 2017, and his big reasons for leaving were burnout, and wanting to experiment more in game dev. He realized where the AAA industry was going.

Important information for Wile E. Coyote & Road Runner shippers:

A photo of Wile E. Coyote and Road Runner nose-to-nose. Caption reads: "I don't know where the post is in question now since I saw it years ago, but to whoever did the post noting that greater roadrunner males do courtship races and then basically said 'which could mean nothing' with this picture of Wile E and Roadrunner...

... I hope you enjoyed Coyote vs Acme."

Top caption: "It's actually even better than that"

There is a screenshot of a Wikipedia article that reads: "Until a mate is found, greater roadrunners typically live a solitary life. They are monogamous, forming long-term pair bonds. Breeding season begins from mid-March to early September. Courtship behaviors between greater roadrunners are a lengthy process including a combination of chasing, tail wagging, play-fighting, and acoustic signals."

The bottom caption reads: "No wonder he missed Wile E, they're practically engaged by roadrunner standards."

A screenshot of a Google summary of roadrunner courtship rituals. Two sections are circled with arrows pointing to screenshots of Wile E. and Road Runner.

The first is "Food offerings" and points to an image of Road Runner in front of a pile of bird seed set out by Wile E. Coyote.

The second is "Foot chases" and points to an image of Wile E. chasing Road Runner, who is looking back at him with a smile.

A bottom caption reads: "Found it on Twitter but yeah, for someone so smart, Wile has no idea he proposed and Roadie said yes."

Why the hell did they remove gyro when the first game had it?? It drives me up the wall. Feels like they care more about signing crossover deals than making their game tolerable on console

these developers need to stop shoehorning real world garbage into their games. video games are supposed to be an ESCAPE from reality. gamers shouldn't have to put up with there being thunderstorms in star fox adventures

if you've already got NSO+expansion, i 100% recommend copping at least the cardboard version while the sale's on. it's worth it for wario land/zero racers/dragon hopper alone (galactic pinball is fun too)

it's worse than that: the YouTube video for frontiers definitive edition calls it a "Nintendo Switch 2 Edition" despite that not being the case, meaning Sega is essentially lying lol

people are still pearl clutching over folks 'harassing' the paint.net dev as if he didn't make his bed. why are people suddenly okay with claude now. i'm perfectly content with simply using an older version of a freeware program but seeing people scream to stop being mean to the claude user..?

🐭sad to announce that not only has the paint dot net guy decided to go all in on AI coding, he's also decided to block anyone and everyone (including us) who's even *mildly* negative in his replies about it. I guess instead of listening to fellow programmers he's sided with the slop machine

screenshot of our post: all of this work to reimplement all kinds of stuff so that it could run poorly in WINE instead of like, trying to get claude to convert it to running natively on Linux. not even the fact it's "I asked the computer to do it for me" but an ineffective use of AI at that

i saw a mario party screenshot of bowser saying "yes, yes" to wario while demanding coins and that made my brain do things

Four-panel Animal Crossing comic.
Panel 1: Tom Nook is sat at the resident services counter on the phone, saying: "Yes, yes... I AM calling about your loan. As you know—"
Panel 2: Scene is zoomed out, and Isabelle is holding a stack of papers while looking back at Tom, who continues: "It's been 2 years since the last payment. I hate to be pushy, but even my patience has its limits... Mr. Wario."
Panel 3: Tom is taken aback as a voice shouts from the phone: "Pfftbbhbt! Like YOU would ever do anything about it, you teddy bear—so get stuffed! Wa-ha-ha-ha-haaah!!"
Panel 4: Tom is sat at the back desk on his laptop, with Isabelle asking: "What are you doing now?" He responds, "Googling how to evict someone. I've never tried it before."

anicotti is a very underrated villager. my all-time favourite

Portrait-style coloured sketch of an anthropomorphised Anicotti, a mouse villager from Animal Crossing with green fur and brown hair. She is waving to the viewer, and is wearing a colourful striped sweater with a small trans flag lapel pin. A Windows XP-style pop-up in the corner reads: "Beautiful Italian rodent women in YOUR area!! Click here."

my plan was to play it in turn-based mode, since trying to battle the boss in the demo in real time was an absolute sensory/reflex nightmare for me. i don't dislike turn-based battling as a whole, just some implementations i guess

Reese Rivers @reeserivers.org · 26/08/2026

i don't mind rpgs generally speaking but i find battling in some of them to be a bit of a slog. i didn't find smrpg very fun at all, and even in feltarune the battles are my least favourite part. i am open to trying other games though--one of these days I'll get to ffvii remake, since i bought it...

"Don't be mean to people who just like Harry Potter" I will be. That conversation started and ended ten years ago. It no longer holds up to scrutiny. Over the span of a whole Decade, you were unwilling to resolve your dependence on an IP which solely acts as the bankrolling of a genocidal Nazi party
