Iggy Koopa looks like the sort of kid who watches all his cartoons pirated on YouTube, never more recent than 2012. He's the sort to sit in a crowd of kids talking about the latest Amphibia episode or whatever and ask "hey, you ever heard of Robot Jones? it's really cool, you should watch it." or recoil with genuine horror when his closest friend (who was born in 2009) tells him he's never heard of Freakazoid, or spend 15 minutes explaining to his family what the "Kimba, I mean Simba" joke in The Simpsons means.

Tracy Beaker is trending on Twitter because Americans don't know who she is, which is one thing...

but I also learned Americans don't know who the Gruffalo is.

I thought EVERYONE knew the Gruffalo, worldwide, never even considered the idea he'd be known solely in Britain, but nope.

Nobody can really agree on which Rhythm Heaven character should get in if one was to. My choice is Tap Trial Girl because 1. she's cute, 2. she's on the title screen of the series' two most well known games, and 3. she's a non-sexualised female character

The new Tom & Jerry movie actually looks... good. There's no talking, they don't "become friends to overcome the odds", there's no big budget CG, it's just live action hour-long Tom & Jerry from what I can see.

Digimon in the West is the perfect example of bad marketing dooming a franchise. I know Digimon came first and was only changed in America to seem more like Pokémon and even I still don't take it seriously because of the way it was treated.

We've removed the Pac-Man video. We heard what you're saying & understand why you're disappointed with Billy Mitchell's inclusion and how the section about him was presented. We're working on a reedited version without the portion involving Mitchell, with new trivia in its place.

If you condemn something by supporting violence (even jokingly) towards people involved with it, you're pretty much just normalising the thing you're trying to stop.

wherever Dreamworks' Trolls franchise goes, controversy seems to follow.

-First movie rightfully accused of trivialising depression
-Second movie basically killed cinema (that's the cinema owners' fault BTW)
-That whole thing with the sitting doll
-Quibi employees being asked to listen to its soundtrack after being fired.

The three non-Japanese female characters in Smash so far have been an eldritch abomination, a sarcastic bird, and a ginger-haired cube.

Japanese devs should be taking notes.

It's strange how so few people talk about how Pac-Man was plagiarised from Tomy - especially the wonderfully anticlimactic ending where Tomy were like "hey, you ripped off our character... can we make the merchandise?" and Namco just went "sure." https://pacman.fandom.com/wiki/Pac-Man_Bank

"Kirby and Captain Falcon for Mario Kart 9!"
Calm down dudes, they haven't even added Kamek yet! Nintendo's far from the bottom of the barrel, and if CTR has taught me anything (other than that microtransactions are completely trivial and not worth worrying about), it's that the bottom of the barrel is exactly where you want to be.

The trademark lookup site is such a weird place, some cool stuff I've discovered:

Pac-Man World 3 was originally called "Pac-Man World 3: The Elixir of Life"
This SEGA logo, which they filed for in 2019:

Nintendo filed a trademark for "QUBE" in the 70s. At first I thought it was something to do with the Viacom-owned interactive 70s TV channel QUBE, but seems not judging from the time frame - specifically with the registration coming after the channel

This image of Toon Link, at first I thought it was stolen fan art given the art style doesn't fully match up with any toon-style Zelda games, but it seems like it was drawn for the trademark registration

In the 90s, Viacom filed trademarks for pretty much every character from CatDog (they were super enthusiastic about this show when it came out, but SpongeBob ended up being the big hit) - sorry to anyone with an unrelated idea for characters called "the Greaser Dogs" or "Rancid Rabbit".

Some small additions I'd want in SSBU, some might be bigger than others, I'm not a gamedev so I wouldn't know:

Level 10 CPU
Ability to disable certain characters (for example, if you want to remove the FE characters from your roster, or your friend is getting super annoying with Duck Hunt's can, you can just ban them on a specific ruleset)
Certain hazards-off stages fixed (looking at you, Smashville)
AT/PokeBall switch
Coin Mode
Ability to choose series symbols and victory themes for Miis.

Disney Renaissance teaser posters bring out huge anemoia in me. I didn't grow up in the 90s, and I was more a Dreamworks kid than a Disney kid, (didn't watch any of the Renaissance films until I was about 9 or 10, maybe even 11 or 12), but these posters just hit that spot.
