So the latest Twitter trend is calling everything that is even slightly corny or silly "quirk chungus millennial writing Reddit"

I'm so glad that I just enjoy the shit I enjoy instead of being so miserable over this. These people can't enjoy anything

If quips are quirk chungus then call me Gex

In Diddy Kong Racing DS, the message when connection is lost during Download Play is "LOST ALL CHILDREN". The cartridge is internally called a "parent" and the downloaded instances its "children". While this would make sense to the developers, it has the potential to confuse or scare players.

Looking at how Sonic Crossworlds is already handling the guest characters pretty well (minus the lack of voice acting which is a significant loss for sure) makes me all the more curious what they'll do for the TMNT.

I don't want to wait until the end of 2026 to play them...

This truly encapsulates the push for AI in everything.

Amazon, one of the wealthiest companies on the planet, still opts to use "Gen" AI to churn out this farce, when it could easily contract out a studio to put soul into its dubs.

For soulless suits, it's always be about saving a few extra bucks.
The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them

A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

I'm not even that big of a fan of most English dubs, but man the fact this was approved is insane to me. Anyone who speaks English, even as a second language, can tell this sounds godawful.

I have no idea who's at fault for this decision, whether that be Amazon or the original Japanese companies.

Yep. This is the main reason I haven't fired off on buying Metaphor yet, I don't trust Atlus/SEGA to not release a "Metaphor Royal" on me the second I decide to buy it.
Sega finally admits low sales of games may have been impacted by players waiting for "definitive editions", like Persona 5 Royal or SMT 5: Vengeance

I do think it's really funny that the likely reason why ND focused so much on remakes and remasters is because they're the only thing they could get done without needing to take at least 5 years in development.

I don't mean to keep harping on this, but modern dev cycles just seem so strenuous.

Admittedly, Jungle Beat is one of the few DK games I've never played (alongside King of Swing and Jungle Climber), but its still really awesome to see this. Bananza embraces so much of DK's history from what I've seen of it, dying to get my hands on a Switch 2 so I can actually play it
Ninja Kong and Ghastly King from Jungle Beat are the next statues!

JUNGLE BEAT REPRESENTATION IN 2025!!

Holy crap, I oughta read the Mickey Mouse strips sometime; I had no idea he was this much of a menace in the early days lol

I have pretty basic tastes (heavy on scrimblo bimblos), but I always have fun doing these, so here's my take on it.

I added a little disclaimer about where I got the custom series logos that I didn't slap together myself, but everything else is official artwork.

Dude it is insane to me how much Twitter users are losing their minds over the goofy nerd sidekick in Metroid Prime 4

People talking about cancelling their preorders, review bombing, and screaming about how Metroid has been ruined...all because this one character has some cringe dialogue?

Yotaka Futatabi / Nighthawk Returns

Update to my Sonic Crossworlds mains tier list now that we know more about the DLC. I imagine I'll update it again once they finish out the SEGA Pass and if they do a second wave of DLC guests.

I might move Aiai into mains tbh, I haven't played a lot of Super Monkey Ball but I love funny monkey

I've been on record about Tangle becoming one of my favorite Sonic characters, very glad to see she made it in. Tangle and Whisper both finally got to escape mobile game purgatory lol
Here's a look at the official renders of #IDWSonic characters Whisper the Wolf and Tangle the Lemur for #SonicRacingCrossWorlds. #SonicNews

From what I've seen of the demo, this game genuinely looks so fast that it'd be exhausting to play lol

Had a big talk in one of my groups about how I think its sad people waste so much energy getting angry at pointless things.

I've met too many people online that get steaming mad nearly every day from inconsequential drama or video games. I ain't perfect but stress reduces your lifespan, chillax.
