And for what? DC and HBO? Game of Thrones and Harry Potter? I love DC, but what a moron.

Imagine owning an entertainment company so developed it can make any new thing you can imagine, so the only reason to buy a similar company is to get more IP. But you think IP is everything, so you do that. But in the same move, you kill the biggest and most enduring IP you already owned.

Honestly one of the most brilliant military strategy moves of all time.

They *just said* Shapiro used a pseudonym, and why. That’s the whole thing you replied to. And yes, Trejo’s son has spoken out about how Danny was duped. How do you know his son exists, but not know that he did do that?

He dropped an F bomb the same night. You think 20 people approved that too?

They’re also using the word “officially” in an intentionally misleading way.

At least they managed to keep an implied promise, but in the funniest way.

Doesn’t have to be foreign. There’s a documentary called “Bad Faith” whose thesis is that he’s aligned mainly with American America haters who are successfully destroying us from within.

Picross 3D. The title doesn’t sound unique, but it is. The 3DS version is not as good. And obviously “Osu! Tatakai! Ouendan!”. You won’t even care that you can’t read the text. Freshly-Picked Tingle’s Rosy Rupeeland is also a real trip. Hooray for a region-free format!

I’ve been bored with my peers “outgrowing” gaming since before I got out of high school. Invariably they did it to themselves by having bad taste and getting tired of the crap they’d been playing.

As a Cheeto consumer, this must be how non-Apple people feel when they’re smug about getting certain phone features earlier, as if earlier means better.

I think Game Boy Camera was Nintendo’s first time shoehorning Game & Watch references into unexpected places where most players weren’t expecting it and wouldn’t recognize it, but we’d love it anyway because that art style is irresistible.

“Frecency” shoots to the top of the most obscure words I know now. The definition is ranked low in its own search results, compared to a confident guess that I meant something else.

Three separate episodes worth of scene-setting and two parallel daisy-chained plot climaxes.

Like a lot of franchise dark ages: it’s really not that bad, especially when you know it’s not the death of the franchise, and you’re not starving for new entries like we were when it came out. It *is* bad in some definite ways, but there’s also a lot to love.

Players are always free to choose a name for the character, and anime fans extremely commonly choose Ash. Many Zelda games let you rename Link, too, but you understand that’s still Link, right?

Red is called Red because RED is the player’s default name in Pokemon Red, and that game was always the first listed game in the original pair for that generation, and the only color featured in both Japan’s original pair and everyone else’s original pair, and the best selling color in every region.

People have been hyping a character-complete hack of Soulcalibur 2 recently, and I’m just assuming it’ll be vibe coded and buggy. That’s assuming they ever finish it at all, which I also doubt.

Are you sure it’s off-brand? I’ve had mine since it was brand new, and that sounds like mine. The D pad just wasn’t engineered as soft and low-profile as the SNES pad you expect it to feel like.

Oh hey I have no idea but that’s actually a fascinating question. Of course that’s what he must be doing.

They’re called expletives because they can be fucking deleted without losing meaning. Fucking crutches for writers who are too simple-minded to create new and interesting phrases. Dull filler that makes sense outside of professional writing because real life is fucking boring like that.

I just got a couple Slik Sticks after not having one for 30 years. I remembered it being way better than 1st-party Atari, and yeah, it’s still amazing. The way it’s built is so cool. No circuitboards. The bottom of the metal stick touches metal directional contacts with a unique “tink tink” feel.

Inner thoughts: “That looks like a Suncom Slik Stik but the details are different.” *checks eBay to make sure I’m getting the name right* *accidentally glimpses a Suncom Tac-2, which this must be depicting* I want that. Very tasteful.

The answer to this rhetorical question is important. Americans are dumber than they used to be, and there are obvious tangible causes and consequences. Evil rich men have been sabotaging education our whole lives, to make us controllable, and they’ve been extremely successful at it.

It’s heavy, and average, and grim, and a pileup? A pileup “on” the stories? What does that even mean? It had too many plot threads for you? The “totally average” movie had too much going on? That’s where the average is, on too much? What a nonsensical shit take.

Did you know if someone once logged into their Nintendo account on your Wii U, then you’ll see their Mii every time you turn it on, and you can never delete that, even if that person isn’t in your life anymore? *sigh*

I’ve been putting a lot of love into my Wii U lately. Game & Wario and Nintendoland. Gave it a smaller external storage drive and a bigger controller battery.

It took me quite a while to realize Netflix Trilogy Bumblebee (cartoon character) looked more like the Origin Bumblebee toy than any of the Earthrise Cliffjumper retools, even though we didn’t see that Bumblebee toy until way later and it wasn’t the Bumblebee mold they sold in a Netflix box.

It’s always just a rotating cast of characters and Nintendo. Other companies just don’t play the game the same way.
