Say, you good at video games? I'm not good at video games. The last time I fired up one of my old Sega tapes, it made me a waffle.
I really liked Famicom Detective Club: The Missing Heir. It got me thinking a lot about Metroid: Other M because I could absolutely see the connection between Yoshio Sakamoto's script on both. Other M has a murder mystery in it and The Missing Heir has mommy issues in it
I'm so excited to get the Picross S installment where the main BGM is blatantly a knockoff of Plastic Love www.youtube.com/watch?v=60o6...
It might seem normal what I'm about to say
Jewel is probably the Sonic character where you're most justified in ignoring the official age. This woman has a job. This woman needs to pick her kids up from soccer practice
Due to sleep schedule troubles my new rule is "Never trust how you feel about your life past 8 AM"
It's hard to understand sometimes if things have actually gotten worse or if I've just gotten older and more aware of the state of the world but it really does feel like something uniquely awful is happening pretty much every day at this point. Could anyone have predicted war crime N64 ten years ago
There is something genuinely evil about New Super Mario Bros. Wii's soundtrack. Like this is not a commentary on the quality of the musicianship of course it's stellar as always I just think they accidentally summoned a demon and trapped it in the audio www.youtube.com/watch?v=l15n...
Dollgirls go to the club to dance to dollhouse
Why was that old guy telling Billy Joel about the time he wore a younger man's clothes. Pervert
I'm torn whether it's better that Love me forever! is relatively early into Rhythm Heaven Groove or if it would have been more impactful as the actual final remix
Little Nemo is always falling out of his damn bed
You know in hindsight Ko Takeuchi was a little crazy to give the Rhythm Heaven Fever mascot girl that bodycon dress
It's definitely not as bad as some of the movies other people are mentioning, I don't normally go out for movies often, but let me tell I saw Pacific Rim 2 in the theater and it's crazy how that movie was so bad it retroactively killed the hype the first one had
Nintendo got so so scared when they didn't get their return on investment with Rhythm Heaven Fever and now they're so so scared to market Rhythm Heaven at all
Goro Abe: OK so you gotta make this song- Game & Wario composers: Complete dogshit? Goro Abe: What? No. You gotta make it amazing. As a bit Game & Wario composers: As a bit Goro Abe: You gotta make people say "SKI (Replay) is among the best video game songs ever made" www.youtube.com/watch?v=tg2I...
That old woman in Rhythm Heaven really did get married to a dog
The instrumentation on this one is so good. Very particular kind of crunchy www.youtube.com/watch?v=Faf0...
You can tell I worked on Rhythm Heaven Fever Repainted because I, ten years ago, included cropped porn of Valkyrie from The Legend of Valkyrie in it. You know, in case you thought my problems started recently
As of now this is the best reconstruction available. The picture is encrypted in the game's files. You can't see the full picture in-game because it has steam covering it you need to blow using the microphone. It only appears in a late-game chapter of new game+ in a game that takes 50 hours to beat.
This is one of my favorite images ever. The absolute funniest part is that it's been a decade since this game came out and the full illustration still has not been recovered
Fun fact: Ganondorf uses an "A-pose" instead. This is still fairly common in 3D modeling and it's helpful when a character has armor on their shoulders
Yes, the dialogue changes constantly throughout the game and you can see the workers planning and then executing the strike. Once the trains open back up they'll let you know the negotiations went well.
I'm reading the Universal vs. Nintendo court documents. I think the court was wrong for saying she isn't as sexy as the woman from King Kong
