(he/him/his) I love video games (especially Nintendo) and animation. I try not to get into arguments and want to be as respectful as I can to everyone. I DEFINITELY like it here more than Twitter (or "X" as it's now called).

OK, done dragging my feet on this. Here's a thread for "Wario-Like" games, games that are either out or in development that are "like Wario", or more specifically Wario Land. This is something I'm passionate about and I'd love these games to get more attention. #WarioLikes #WarioLike #WARIO-LIKE

New little Wario Land piece by Rick V. up on the website.

“Parsley woods is not filled with ghosts, goblins, zombies, and cries of lost souls. It just has the same enemies on every other map and some trains.” @itsmerickv.com

Into the Parsley Woods by Rick V.
The themed-level is a trope in old platformer games that are almost expected. The snow level, the water level, the space level, and so on. We always see them coming but aren’t ever that delighted t…

The Scott Adams thing is going to be a much more effective cudgel than Charlie Kirk, because the general public knows Dilbert.

And most people don't know Scott Adams is a nightmare person because he mostly keeps it to niche outlets and social media.
Reminder that when Scott Adams dies very soon we're going to have to deal with another wave of nazi fucks trying to get people fired and suspended from sites and shit.

I'm not exactly saying "watch what you say," but what you're saying will be watched so plan accordingly.

E3 2004 footage of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (GCN) from a Famitsu Wave DVD.
This is a higher-quality version of the footage that we have. Similar to other E3 2004 demo footage, this does not contain background music, so sound effects can clearly be heard.

There are many great @ocremix.org tracks that utilize "Aquatic Ambience" from Donkey Kong Country, but this one is particularly pretty due to being performed on the piano instead of a chipset.

Here's "Depth of the Deep" by David Wise, remix by Waveformer.

I'm expecting an update later this week, that's usually the case if there's no update on Monday.
About the lack of a Nintendo Music addition today, I'm not very bothered by it personally. They're 100% going to add *something* this week, just a matter of when really.

Please note in advance that if the drop occurs at a non-standard time I will likely not be able to fully update my resources.

I didn't have the time to draw my OCs with Xmas outfits like others are doing, but I got smth less interesting to compensate: The first half of a WIP bowling alley level for #Blutkapelle, complete with (kinda holiday appropriate?) placeholder music!

Merry Christmas!

I compared the PS1 and 3DS openings a month ago and came out preferring the pacing of the original. So I’ll be really interested to see Reimagined compares to both of those. youtu.be/xCZDN9qEy4U?...

Drawing Wario everyday until there's a new Wario Land game day 1802.

Apparently I may have something called the "Super Flu," so that's fun.
