NEW VIDEO OUT!

I used to think that my feelings on games looking more unique when I was a kid was mostly nostalgia. Turns out I was just right all along. This is a video about that.
Yes, games really WERE cooler years ago

Hey.

Kindly reminder.

This goes double for anyone under 18; be very careful about interacting with adults.

If any adult makes you feel uncomfortable, DO NOT ENGAGE THEM. RUN.

the ideal way to experience the game awards is to sleep through them and just scroll through wario64's thread for all the announcements

I love when Zelda says the game's title

"To save Hyrule's future, we must find a Link to the Past."
"Can you smell it Link? The Breath of the Wild."
"Breakfast is grows cold! It is time for Link's Awakening."
"Oh no, I'm late for Link's Crossbow Training."
"Freshly-Picked Tingle's Rosey Rupeeland."

Obligatory "fuck cancer" to one of the most interesting programmers and individuals in the history of video games.

May you rest in peace, 1980 Space Invaders World Champion. Thank you.
My trailblazing game industry bad-ass friend Rebecca Heineman has passed away.

Fuck cancer.

Burger Becky’s gofundme for cancer treatment is now for a funeral service.

To my knowledge we’ve not yet lost her, but she has announced that her doctors have informed her there is nothing more that can be done

Silent Hill is funny because 1 and 3 are about the cult trying to revive their god but in between those entries James bumbled his way into the town and fucked around for a while before leaving

I went to meet the 'Rockstar 31', the developers who were suddenly fired from their work on GTA 6 for what the studio has described as gross misconduct.

That's not what the workers call it though. They have another couple of words they prefer to use: union busting.

In Super Mario Galaxy, the stars on the letters of the logo spell "u r mr gay", while for the movie it says "he mr gay". This is because you are watching Mario, not playing him.

Thank you all so, so much for this year's amazing Direct! The way there was like a trudge through Peaceful Rest Valley at times, but our prayers prevailed!
Special thanks to VeeBee for making it happen; we wouldn't be here now without them!

See you all next year! Lots of love and fuzzy pickles!

November 6 1998, F-Zero X debuted on the N64 in PAL territories!

There are different death screams used for male/female drivers, with Baba having the latter.
In the F-Zero anime and GX that followed, Baba has additional effeminate qualities added to his lore as characters were more fleshed out!
