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.

Moon Child is ridiculously easy to make in Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream, huh

Stuffwell is informing Mario and Luigi (and Baby Mario and Baby Luigi), "I advise spitting on everything you see!"

New Digimon Beatbreak episode

just finished making him and dressing him up and this is the first fucking thing he says to me

An NPC known as Stylish student is saying, "Hanging out with women, going on dates with them, that's fine. Killing them? Not so much."

Persona 4 (PS2, 2008)

My mii has a crush on Bowser. Bowser just upgraded my mii to "best friend."

or Bigger Undyne (who is at least as strong as Undyne Prime)

The thing is, you've got the power to be his friend.

In the map screen in Super Mario Sunshine, a Yellow Yoshi in the Pinna Park brochure is seen saying something nearly unreadable: [screenshot of unreadable text] However, trying to enhance the image suggests, using the evidence provided, that he is congratulating someone named Shinko: Please accept my best wishes for your marriage, Shinko! Shinko Konishi is a map designer who has worked at Nintendo since 2000. In 2001, she worked with programmer Yoshitaka Takeshita on Animal Crossing: Field Design Jun Takamura Shinko Konishi Program Masaro Sakakibara Makoto Sasaki Nobuhiro Sumiyoshi Yoshitaka Takeshita Hiroshi Umemiya In Super Mario Sunshine, Yoshitaka Takeshita was not involved, and her name was still Shinko Konishi: MAP DESIGN Hiromu Takemura Atsushi Miyagi Shinko Konishi Taeko Sugawara However, in Super Mario 64 DS, they work together again (in the same roles), and now Shinko's last name is Takeshita: MAP & LEVEL DESIGN MINI-GAME PROGRAMMING JUN TAKAMURA SHINKO TAKESHITA EIJI MUKAD YUJI SAHATANI YUKARI SUZUKI YOSHITAKA TAKESHITA EIJI NISHIKAWA This all is extremely strong evidence that Shinko was engaged to Yoshitaka during the production of Super Mario Sunshine. As the Yoshi image would have been made by someone on the map design team, they would have worked closely with Shinko and used this opportunity to congratulate her.

In Super Mario Sunshine, the Pinna Park map screen brochure features a Yoshi saying something nearly indecipherable. However, it turns out there is compelling evidence that he is congratulating a map designer on her upcoming wedding to a programmer at Nintendo.

Big fan of how different Thunderbird looks between the art and sprites for Zelda II: Tha Adventure of Link.

Overall enjoyed it, not a fan of how irrelevant Rosalina was for most of the movie, or her backstory, Wart was hot, Fox was a himbo, I like that Luigi was more important.

Saw The Mario Galaxy Movie, about what I was expecting, a fun romp that's not much of an adaptation of the games beyond a few key points (Sorta star festival, Peach's castle is lifted into space a flying saucer, help Rosalina, Bowser Jr. is there).

Would you still follow me if I said that I really don't like Super Mario Galaxy (2007)'s controls?

In World 6-7 of Yoshi's Island, Yoshi is chased by giant Chain Chomps. The level is intended to be linear, so backtracking from the checkpoint may cause the Chain Chomps to become glitched. Now, Yoshi will be chased by a singular floating eye, which will cry at the end.

Okay I enjoyed Super Metroid a decent amount from what I played, and Zero Mission is probably more straightforward than many Metroidvanias.

Finished Metroid: Zero Mission (2004), I thought I didn't like Metroidvanias based on Super Metroid (1994), but this was a blast to play from start to finish, except for the mother brain fight.

"Why do you like this game?"
Me:

It took me perhaps longer than it should have to realize that The Muppets and Sesame Street are different entire things that are just also Jim Henson projects. This didn't happen with other Henson productions, I knew things like Fraggle Rock were separate.

We have a preview for episode 26 of Digimon Beatbreak! Make sure to watch the 25th episode before you watch the preview!

Anyone have a screenshot of that one tweet about bouncing on it like a Thwomp? Straight up and down, EEUURRGGHH? It was one of the last tweets I found notable before leaving in October 2024.

Why is it radioactive

Playing Metroid: Zero Mission for the first time and damn bomb jumping is easy.

“Think of the worst people you can. No matter who you just named, I promise you, he is miles worse than that.

I am, clearly, talking about Tung Tung Tung Sahur. That stupid fucking plank of nothing, who I want thrown into a woodchipper.”

“Rather than leaving immediately, Antonio Mansa, who was like far too many of San Francisco’s residents, barely literate, unskilled, and yet another typical product of the San Francisco public school system, got closer.”

Maya looking sad

Detective Evangelion

Starting Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Blue Rescue Team (2005) and I have gotten Psyduck as the player character thrice.

I like Psyduck, but not a pokémon I'd want to play as.

Love trans people!
