I checked the PSN store on the PS5 for the first time in a while, and wow it is filled with basically the exact shovelware as the Switch

-AI generated Hentai Puzzle Games
-AI generated obvious ripoffs of a more popular game (I saw a game called "Liar's Pub" which was a clear ripoff of "Liar's Bar" The AI art even used characters from Liar's Bar) (there was also that obvious animal crossing ripoff that was discussed a few days ago as well)
-AI generated Avatar Bundles

that's why I never just look at the store to find new games. I find them from ads, directs, and youtubers.

Day 15: Mega Mewtwo Y

The newest Mewtwo model cow comes with a convenient handle, for all your travel needs :4pacman:
Every time I look at Mewtwo Y, I'm reminded of how amazing the Mewtwo and Genesect movie was.

That movie is why Genesect is my favorite legendary/mythical and third favorite Pokemon overall. Douse Drive is my precious baby

So... Remember the Hello Kitty Minecraft DLC from earlier this week?

Apparently, a roadmap of the year leaked with the Hello Kitty DLC on it and, I'll admit I'm skeptical of some of the claims on it, there is one claim that, if true, would be huge.

The thing in question?

Fortnite X Minecraft

That said, I'm not 100% convinced this one is real so take with a grain of salt.

Better or worse than Steam though, that's the million dollar question.

Made a new game in Pokemon Masters EX and I actually got Sygna Red and Sygna Blue and I'll be able to choose Sygna Leaf later. Feels good.

I can't believe Mewtwo got babified.

Like. I wouldn't even mind this design if it was its own separate Mewthree like we all thought it was when it was teased but as a mega evolution I just don't think it makes sense at all. They made Mewtwo look less powerful and scary when it mega evolves into this form. To the point that when it got first shown off a lot of people thought it'd somehow be a pre-evolved form. Like why?

I 'think' the idea is supposed to be like in fiction where someone becomes uber smart to the point of psychic abilities, but their body is small because either their head is abnormally large, or their body has wasted away due to not really 'needing' it.


At least, that's my best guess.

I'm just a little bitter then one of my favorite pokemon got two mega evolutions and somehow neither of them actually landed for me.

I try not to be a baby about it but man.

Funny enough as a local Gen VI Advocate, I never really associated many of my best memories of the region with Mega Evolution.

I mean, I really do like it. Some of these designs are epic and I've enjoyed using Mega Blastoise and Manectric in the past. Yet when it comes to XY and ORAS, I just played it without using Megavolution that often. Same goes for all the region gimmicks really.

That said, I'm flexible, so if Legends ZA brings in a Mega Tsareena...

Just remembered that my great grandma killed a nazi and that if that never happened I wouldn't be here today

Yes this is topical to the Elon stuff
My grandpa fought in WW2. He died before I was born but I'm gonna say he killed some nazis here and there. Either that or I too wouldn't be here.

Of course he wouldn't receive the recognition that he deserved back in the states cause he's black, but I kinda wish I had the chance to ask him about his stories.

Point is nazis are scum.

Not to take away from your grandpa but the the thing about my great grandma is that she didn't fight in WW2. She was a Polish Jew so she ran away with her daughter (my maternal grandma). That Nazi bit happened on the way. (bit heavy stuff incoming) Some creep took a liking to her and blackmailed her into having sex with him. Option 2 was being turned over to the gestapo. My great grandma chose Option 3. It was purely out of self defense.

That being said killing Nazis is killing Nazis. Your grandpa was a hero too.

I think people discussing the nazi muskrat would be somewhat pleased by how reddit, formerly his strongest soldiers, has a ****ton of communities agreeing to ban twitter links after the nazi salute
I'm all for the ban and let's be real they're basically banned here since embeds have been broken here forever but I doubt it'll last. Too many big companies use Twitter as their main source of information and interaction, which sucks that a single social media platform has a monopoly on information.

Funny enough, Nintendo seems to be distancing themselves from twitter in recent newsletters, links to other social media accounts, sure, but that crappy new logo is absent
