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.

the saddest thing is when cis people learn Celeste is a "trans game" and feel cheated or like it has lost value to them. What a depressing view of art and the world

finally, real music

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.

In Donkey Kong Country Returns, a rare glitch can occur upon visiting Cranky Kong, where he will refuse to talk to Donkey Kong and instead sit in silence forever. The player will be unable to leave his shop, requiring the game to be reset.

This is one of the worst things I have ever read and I study frontier genocide as a profession.

Floating away 🌸

I feel almost stupid saying things that are so obvious to me but this country is full of and run by people who clearly think otherwise.

That shit is designed to give everyone depression I swear

No amount of money is worth the loss of innocent human lives.

Replaying Mother 3 but not sure I can connect with the setting. A bunch of fascist pig thugs ruled by a narcissistic manchild take over a society which is too spiritually poisoned by love of money to offer any meaningful resistance. I mean nothing like that could ever happen in real life

In a 1993 issue of Famitsu, the magazine reached out to Nintendo Japan to answer questions related to Mario for the release of Super Mario All-Stars. One of them was about "Mario's favorite foods": 「マリオはキノコが好物なのはもちろんのこと、タマネギやピーマン、食用ギクなども好きなんですよ」(任天堂) "Mario loves mushrooms, of course, but he also likes onions, bell peppers, and edible chrysanthemums" (Nintendo) [pictures of the foods in question] Source: Weekly Famitsu (Japan), Issue 239, July 16th 1993

In 1993, the Japanese Famitsu magazine inquired Nintendo about Mario's favorite foods. Nintendo replied that Mario's favorite foods are mushrooms, onions, bell peppers, and surprisingly, edible chrysanthemums.

In Super Smash Bros. Melee, Mewtwo's down special can interfere with other fighters' up specials by sending them flying if executed with precise timing. The effect is particularly pronounced with Luigi, who will be launched at an immense speed and remain airborne for 8 seconds.

Thank you 😁

In 1993, Silicon Graphics presented "Project Reality", the hardware later used in the Nintendo 64. One of the demos showed a realistic town populated by cutouts of Nintendo characters. Only two screenshots and a brief snippet of footage of it are known to exist, shown below.

i’m so tired

The Number of Collectibles in Donkey Kong 64, Settled Once and for All based on the datamining efforts of DK64 expert and DK64 Randomizer creator Ballaam The Internet is full of misinformation about the number of collectibles in Donkey Kong 64. Various guides, articles, and even the Guinness Book of World Records all list wrong numbers due to either neglecting to count some type of collectible, or not considering that the coin and banana counters are not equivalent to the number of coin and banana collectibles; e.g. Banana Balloons add 10 bananas to the counter, and Rainbow Coins add 25 coins, while each only being a single item. Note: a "collectible" is any individual item for which the collection status is saved to the save file, i.e. which does not respawn after collecting if the game is saved, exited and loaded again. This is as opposed to "pickups" like ammo that do respawn. Golden Bananas 201 +3 OOB Blueprints 40 Banana Medals 40 Fairies 20 Battle Crowns 10 Boss Keys 8 Company Coins 2 Rainbow Coins 16 Single Bananas Donkey 185 +1 OOB Diddy 130 +1 OOB Lanky 140 Tiny 170 +1 OOB Chunky 165 Banana Bunches Donkey 65 Diddy 70 Lanky 70 Tiny 66 Chunky 63 Banana Balloons Donkey 19 +1 OOB Diddy 22 Lanky 21 Tiny 20 Chunky 22 Banana Coins Donkey 99 Diddy 103 Lanky 110 Tiny 118 Chunky 147 +3 OOB Total number of collectibles:2142 (2152 if counting out of bounds content) Source: https://bsky.app/profile/ballaam.dk64randomizer.com

Donkey Kong 64 has a large number of collectibles, but the Internet is full of misinformation on what exactly that number is. I present an accurate count based on comprehensive datamining, aiming to answer this question once and for all: Donkey Kong 64 has 2142 collectibles.

if you watch and support the new harry potter show you are funding trans genocide globally by the way

If you wanna watch the new Harry Potter show you’re supporting an Epstein island wannabe who is funding trans genocide.

An obscure functionality of Donkey Kong Country Returns is that if Donkey Kong spends 3 full attack cycles of a boss not damaging it, Professor Chops will pop up telling him what to do, e.g. "BOP NOW!" In the Mole Miner Max battle, the tip is particularly condescending, being simply "TRY HARDER".

Extremely rare officially licensed 1992 "Mariovania" mug. While appearing to be a regular Super Mario Bros. mug, the background is actually the starting area of Castlevania II: Simon's Quest. What Mario is doing in this location is not explained.
