For me the problem with a custard cream is that the first half is swimming around at the bottom of my mug, leading me with a single bite as steeped in regret as the other half is in tea.

Scram Kitty and His Buddy on Rails, the cult hit Wii U indie, is back as Super Scram Kitty from @kumogami.bsky.social. But this is much more than a simple port. @jtsknight92.bsky.social takes a look in our Review Mini. www.nintendoworldreport.com/reviewmini/7...

Something I found with the DK challenge is that the tasks highlight the best of the 'classic' games, and the worst of Bananza. Trying to make #Bananza an arcade challenge just frustrates. #Nintendo #DKChallenge

We played it multiplayer for months every lunchtime at Q-Games (oh, the cacophony) from launch day. The original is a pure 10/10. Download play with 8 independent instruments, just an amazing time to play.

With how many there are, if I were to try naming them individually they'd very quickly exhaust my creativity and descend to a hex code so, they are *all* called Jumples. I just saved one from the shower.

I love it so much. They usually live on the walls here but since Sunday it's been jumping onto the monitor for a game of chase.

I recall *so clearly* my schoolfriend Nathan teaching me that you should blow bubbles into the wall at the end of the stage (so they instantly pop) to get more points. Must have spent hours of my life simply doing that. A true classic. #BubbleBobble #Arcade

Mike & Rami are Still Here's Develop LIVE chaos D&D-ish session in which I roleplayed 2010 Rami trying to pitch a game in 2026 led to @moonmode.com actually making the game. It's called "I love dog", you can play it now, and it's a game with sokoban crates, dogs fighting for love, and multipliers.

"Indies will save us" No! YOU WILL SAVE INDIES! Go leave a review for that neat indie game you like, share the trailer for an upcoming game you're anticipating, tell your fave developer they did a good job, go tell people about such and such game that's just come out, you can make a difference!

“Link's efforts to liberate Epona from Ingo's unscrupulous clutches is supposed to symbolise the player's liberation from the developers' initial character run speed settings, no longer always having to roll on the field to gain speed, yet there is no mention of this in the film.”

Rode past the old #Nintendo buildings today, and every time I'm down there it forces my mind into a profoundly distracted state spinning on how much of my life's direction was set by getting #Game&Watch Snoopy Panorama at age 6. Something about that hinge action, I guess. (still works)

I'm *super* annoyed about the gun-tlets. Incongruity incarnate. Other than that one (irritating) failure, I could really only be more excited for the new FE if it was coming in stereo 3D on 3DS.

…And it’s hard to explain these ‘whoa!’ moments to anyone who’s grown up taking 3D camera control in general for granted. It was like your favourite pop-up book had come to life, and you could peer around the corners into previously hidden worlds.

Watching these ants frustratedly try to navigate the leaves on my fishbowl gives me strong PS1-era platformer flashbacks.

For me it started slow with the first hour or two, but once I got into the upgraded gadgetry I was very quickly, and overwhelmingly, hooked.

The Gadget Workshop music in #SplatoonRaiders is *perfect.* Worth the price of entry alone. Could be right out of a Goemon game, delightful Okinawan tones. Looooove. This. Game.

It just doesn't stop, either! Some rough edges but every level brings new abilities - some truly ambitious - and the freeform exploration feels like a smart deconstruciton of Yoshi's Island's rigid (wonderful) systems, made to fit into more bite-sized, low-pressure play sessions. Excellent game.

It's now Kyoto-hot, and it's Gion festival time, so it's confusing me that we in fact already had BitSummit this year.

+1 to the scans! Do you have the Zelda 3 (gold cover) issue of Game Zone in there?
