When people talk about future PD entries, I think people really ignore that in '38, Dumbo will finally be able to join his old-school Disney brothers in the proper fairy tale pantheon. I'm excited to see how people way more knowledgable than me handle the crows, without context I naively thought they were the coolest Disney characters as a kid lmao.

This might be a very nuclear take, but I think 3D platformers, while not a bad genre, have never actually been perfected mechanically, which I guess is fair since you could argue collectathons - which are considered the "default" for 3D platformers - fall somewhere in the "not about gameplay" camp, but still. Crash 4 is the closest I think there really is, but corridor platformers are kind of a niche subgenre, like Metroidvanias are to traditional 2D platformers, at least within internet discourse, and even Crash 4's play-feel does have some issues.

i remember finding out a while back that on smash twitter there's a guy who also likes rocko and uses him as a pfp a lot, but is infamous for being a die-hard conker supporter and master chief detractor, and i think that's a kinda funny coincidence.

I know COGH is old news, but I still think we don't talk enough about how SSBU (or at least its US localisation) has literal by-dictionary-definition historical revisionism in it. (that being the Tips omitting references to CD-i and PC games when they should be mentioned as the true holders of the "fun fact" titles)

I'm not trying to attribute malice or opportunism here, and I am likely biased or subconciously trying to find things to take fault in as someone who thinks this character is the only really good character choice of its series thus far, but asking for Jigglypuff to be cut in the Smash game released immediately after his VA died is not a good look.

Pretty much every Mario game released between the N64 and the really early days of the Wii has some shade of Cartoon Licensed Game Energy.

"I'm not gonna play Rivals/Slap City/whatever because all the characters are OCs I don't know"

How the hell do you even like any characters that aren't the random Disney side character printed on your baby onesie?

I find it weirdly funny that the character in the Alberquerque music video is called "Miracle Machine". Someone drew a Homestar Runner fusion of Fry Futurama and Earthworm Jim, gave him Weird Al's voice, and decided to give him a dark-biblical fantasy golem name.

thinking about the time someone did a nasb fan poll, but required participants to give away their email address, so only like 2 people did it and ickis won. (iirc it was before jimmy was added proper)

It's kinda funny how a lot of Western people think the Hanafuda illustrations were a Nintendo invention.

People were getting very excited over the promise from Illumination of "obscure characters" (read: Petey Piranha) in Mario movie 2, but I'm personally more excited to see which black/silver-box-era NES games appear on blurry photos in the background of the real world sections

Years later and I stand by it: "Scrimblo" is legitimately useful terminology. "Mascot" implies privelege that rarely exists, and "cartoony character" is far too long and argually encompases some characters who exist a little too far away in the style spectrum (would a human Disney renaissance character count as "cartoony"? They're not a scrimblo either way.)

Knowing that Hideo Kojima is a die-hard Aardman fan, I wonder if he ever played the Chicken Run MGS clone on PS1.

started work on a huge folder of disney-owned characters for a tiermaker fighter roster template, continued working on it, observed the images added yesterday, and thought "wait, why did i put the talking houses from the muppets here?"

The fact that The New Norm is like 30% AI, has 2 minute episodes, and has generally low quality human-made animation, but the episodes still came out 4 months apart really speaks to how long animation takes to make.

"wii sports is abandonware" might be the most depressing fact about gaming ever.

why does igdb/backloggd consider game & watch a seperate console from handheld lcd. that's like calling activision atari 2600 games a seperate console from other atari 2600 games or something.

oh no i'm watching the alberquerque video

i've never watched it before because the thumbnail art always looked a bit off to me, but in motion the art is quite fun, looks a bit doug tennapel-esque, just thankfully without doug tennapel. not "17 hours" fun though... well, we'll wait and see

making a "smash ultimate deluxe with 100+ newcomers but they can only use existing assets" roster and i've added 3 tingles (tingle, dark tingle, and the oc-of-an-oc light tingle)

starting to think quantity-over-quality isn't a bad idea after all.

i love the teammate power up in nasb2, even though the cpus sucking makes it near-useless.

gen 5 is probably my least favourite pokemon gen games-wise, but it also gave us litwick, meloetta, trubbish, timburr, herdier, and yamask so it is easily the most stacked gen mon-wise.

just clicked a "disney platform fighter" video and it opens with "i love platform fighters because" before they explain what a crossover is and nothing about platform fighters.

what if you applied "will smith fish"/"kevin james cow" naming logic to well known, professional va voiced characters.

"tom kenny sponge" "mel blanc rabbit" "yellow dan castalanetta"
