Anything for Lanky Kong, though

I'd like to just remind you guys:

Banjo proved that you can get in even if your last game is over a decade old.

Steve proved that you can get in even if, at first glance, you wouldn't fit at all.

Sora proved that you can get in no matter what licensing hurdles stand in the way. (1/2)
Since the hype behind Smash Bros is increasing again, I just want to throw this out there for those make character speculation a life-or-death struggle.

I'm pretty sure he's never specified that any video game characters are void, either. He didn't actually say that about Waluigi, or even that he dislikes the character himself, that was just salty fans putting words into his mouth
Except that. Video game characters only, Sakurai said so himself. Unless he specifies himself, that is the only concrete rule when it comes to speculation

Also, apparently the phrase is "pass muster" and not mustard. I swear to GOD I thought it was mustard, I wasn't trying to be funny
Well, it was also on DS and 3DS. Not a different game of the same name, just the exact same thing on a handheld. For the DS, it passes mustard for being okayish, but both of those systems are very strong in the nostalgia bubble too, so my point stands

Like, y'all think Game Key Cards are the most anti-consumer thing invented, but I swear you have not seen ANYTHING yet.

Even better, I can't get the PS2 Final Mix versions to emulate well enough. I suppose I'll just stick with the ones I can play on my modded 3DS until Square Enix grows some nuts
God bless Square Enix for providing demos of the cloud Kingdom Hearts ports on Switch, because fuck my UNCLE I am not buying these versions 💀

Like, I'm willing to tolerate Nintendo Classics being part of a subscription service since it still downloads and can be played offline, but this is pathetic

I decided to try getting into Studio Ghibli's movies

I've never heard any of the original Japanese audio for Castle in the Sky, but I can very easily tell that these two originally sounded like actual children and the English dub just wants you to think they're short adults lmao

And there we have it. I had zero comment on the other categories, and I haven't even played/watched most of these here, I just voted for Silksong, Ninja Gaiden 4, and Sonic whenever those are just want I want to see win.

MK Legacy Kollection shouldn't have even been qualified but I do not care

So, like, unless they're all not talking about 100%, I don't see why people find Mario Galaxy to be so replayable. There's quite a lot of recycled content that, while nowhere near as bad as Crash 4, kinda deters me from wanting to replay this game anytime soon

Did Wii Fit not have proper box art in North America or something...?

Everyone, listen. Maybe I'm getting ahead of myself here, but:

TGA is less than a month away.

Toys 4 Bob announced some collaboration with Microsoft that they've yet to reveal a couple years ago.

Is it finally time?

Let's make something clear here, it takes a LOT of effort to make me dislike anything frog-related. And I do NOT like that tablet.

Why the actual fuck was Sonic 3 not nominated for best adaptation? You cannot be serious

Okay, real talk though, I really liked this episode. Of course, the fact that I hate generative AI fueled that enjoyment, but goddamn

do you ever think about how everyone in Punchout is a ridiculous stereotype who attacks with weapons or magic pretty much except for the French guy, who is just a guy wearing normal clothes who punches you. It's like he got isekai'ed into the nonsense world and isn't even the main character

I love how the movie without "Bros." in the title is the one that actually features both plumbers more equally

Speaking of, the Lumas nagging Rosalina to read the story about the "plumbers" is the first time in the movies that anyone outside of Brooklyn calls them that. I really like that detail

Aside from Bowser Jr.'s voice, which I'm sure will grow on me, and Yoshi's strange exclusion from this trailer, which isn't even necessarily a concern with the movie itself, this looks like cinema at its finest!

Also, where is Yoshi bruh
Gonna be real, and maybe I put a bit too much money on Nancy Cartwright, but I'm really not sure about Bowser Jr.'s voice here
