In Super Smash Bros. Melee, all fighters' default poses are a standard T-pose with arms out and open eyes, except for Yoshi. He has a unique default pose that gives him lowered eyelids that result in a smug or satisfied expression.

Princess Peach has reportedly installed a plastic owl on top of her castle to prevent roosting Yoshis from making a home there.

Dude your team has done literally nothing since they won it all lmao

(You are absolutely right about the pitching & nothing else tho. The Mets have historically overprioritized pitching over hitting. Most of their best players of all time are pitchers. Tom Seaver, Dwight Gooden, Jacob deGrom, etc.. Same can't be said about powerhouses at the plate.)

So uh that player is on the Orioles now. McLean is a budding superstar and Senga is... frustrating, I guess?
Look, I'm not gonna stop you from becoming a fan. I'm just warning you that the life of a Mets fan is not for the faint of heart.

There is nothing you can do to convince me otherwise that the Mets are in a rebuild.

Don't become a Mets fan. It's a sinking ship. Save yourself from the agony that plagues this team and its fanbase!

It's so like Nintendo to just drop an anticipated release date on a random ass tuesday

You can adventure on your own in Splatoon Raiders, but you can also bring up to three other players in on the action, near or far. Don't worry about balance or difficulty—whether you team up with friends or go solo, it all evens out!

Whoever came up with the Splatoon Raiders hair accessories should probably be given more decisions to make because they make the best ones. Not usually a fan of dictatorships but with them in charge, we'd be fine.

It wouldn’t be major splatoon news if it weren’t dropped on a random fuckass Tuesday

Ok now I don't feel as bad that we lost him.

Mario & Luigi: Brothership contains an extremely cute model of a decorative baby penguin that appears only outside the playable area and is never seen up close. Below is a detailed view of the model to appreciate the penguin.

Does David Stearns know he needs more than a calculator & thoughts/prayers to win games? Genuinely not sure if he knows at this point.

One of my favorite things about being both an aspiring voice actor and a fighting game fan is when one voice actor is just everywhere.

Hugo, Scorpion, Ragna, Ladiva, and now Krauser. I cannot escape @patrickseitz.bsky.social's voice... not that I want to, because he's a DAMN good voice actor.

Excerpt from a 2000 interview with Paper Mario chief director Ryota Kawade and Technical Support Hiroyasu Sasano, recently translated by shmuplations.com -Were there any other locations you wanted to include? Sasano: There were... if only we'd had more time. Kawade: We were cutting it pretty close. We didn't waste anything, although some characters and party members did end up getting cut. -What kind of characters were they? Kawade: You know the Ninji characters? They appear in Chapter 7 in Starborn Valley. One of them was originally supposed to join your party when you first meet Merlee. It's a real shame we couldn't get him in because of time constraints. Data in the game lists an unused partner known only as "Ninji Boy", with the only description of him being that he can "lower the block" NINJI BOY? HE CAN LOWER THE BLOCK Original text: ハックンのオトコのコ? ブロックを下げることができるぞ Ninji Boy could possibly have used any of these five unused Ninji colorations found in the game, or even used all five similar to how Yoshi Kid has multiple colors in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. One thing is clear, however. Director Ryota Kawade really regrets not including Ninji Boy. Source: shmuplations.com/papermario, tcrf.net/Paper_Mario/Unlocalized_Japanese_Text

Previously, I have posted about an unused partner in Paper Mario known only as "Ninji Boy", with the only information about him being that he can "lower the block". A newly translated developer interview confirms that he was cut and that director Kawade really regrets not having him.
