Mewtwo's had a rough go of it in Smash lately. Some iffy balance decisions and a kind of dated moveset haven't helped. But could the next game bring Mewtwo back to prominence?

Well, I got...
*checks notes*
One.
I don't know, like...there were some really notable and important reveals in the Partner Showcase. But very few of them are scratching that itch for me. Even stuff that normally would (played the Elliot demo and was left disappointed).
Just my luck, I guess.

Main stuff I'm hoping will show up includes:
- Release date for Elden Ring
- Metaphor
- Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
- FF7 Rebirth
- Mina the Hollower (if it fits here rather than a future Indie World)
- Monster Hunter Wilds, if they can actually get it running worth a damn
- A surprise or two

Well, it's not a main Direct, but it's something. Helps that the huge jump in power with the Switch 2 means plenty of third party ports are doable now that would never have been possible with the Switch 1.
Still, hopefully we won't be left waiting until June for more info on FE/Raiders/etc.

The results are in! Looks like we have our first RE-remake on deck, as DK climbed above the competition just enough to win out!
Look forward to seeing an updated version of the big guy's Smash design, using all the new stuff he got in Bananza, in video form this spring.

I tried, but I'm still too worn out. Wanted to have the video out for Early Access this evening, but I need slightly more time. Going to have to forgo Early Access to have it out before Christmas. I'm sorry.
Aiming for release tomorrow afternoon, before all the parties start!

Just a little further to go. Our next Challenger is still trying to find his way out of another dimension, but rest assured, Magolor will be ready to show how he could work as a Smash Bros. newcomer in just a few days! Keep an eye out.

My birthday's been pretty low key this year--wasn't expecting a whole lot given the circumstances. But I wanted to give myself a chance at getting my own present of sorts. Had enough hourglasses saved in PTCG Pocket to pull 10 Mega Rising Gyarados packs, and...
...Maybe I'm not completely cursed.

We've finally reached my birthday again, huh? Won't lie, this year has been a rough one. I don't have a whole lot to celebrate, with how limited I still am and how empty most of my life still is.
Yet, I've made it this far. Hopefully this time next year won't be as somber.

If you have YouTubers you like and follow and watch their videos a lot
leave innane/positive comments on their videos. The algo is all fucked up for YT creators and a lot of videos get sent to the void for whatever reason.
I hate doing it, but I've been trying to do it.

Word to the wise for everyone watching #TheGameAwards tonight: Hype responsibly. There'll probably be a few big announcements, but don't go in expecting them to shoot the moon.
Especially if you're looking for Nintendo news. Very unlikely they announce any new games here. That includes Smash.
