Y’know it just occurred to me, and I’m surprised nobody has mentioned this Wouldn’t the dual mouse setup on the Switch 2 make a ton of sense for ARMS? As a matter of fact I wouldn’t be surprised at all if the reason ARMS is getting a free update is to implement that feature

Y'know, ever since Kirby Air Riders was announced I haven't seen a *single* person acknowledge the existence of Top Ride lmao I mean it was 1/3 of the original game so it's totally coming back right? Could be fun if it's expanded on

That feeling when you play a life changing indie game 5 years after it came out so now all the merchandise is out of print I'll never be able to stand with Gooper now....

Hey uh, is anyone who follows me still on here? I haven't used this site in a hot minute so I don't know how active this place is, like or reply or something if you see this lol

Erm, this is a Cataquack moment

Hey @brandon.gvg.io and @steve.gvg.io, did either of you try out the Gyroscope pointer controls for Metroid Prime 4? One of my big hopes for the Switch 2 was Wii style pointer controls without all the drift and constant recalibrating. But I haven't heard anything on if that hardware has improved.

Game preservation is a funny thing, because currently, we don't have an easy way to buy games like MegaMan Legends, Viewtiful Joe, at least half of the Tekken titles, and the 3D Castlevania games. However, I can still go on Steam right now now and buy both Chicken Little tie-in games. Funny.

I swear back buttons are a feature on every alt. controller on the market, but games almost never let you map them as a unique input so I almost never use them, bummer

What's the deal with Steam Deck bumpers? No joke I've had 3 of them now break in the exact same way after minimal use but I've seen nobody talk about this issue like it's super common Like I'm the one person who never had Nintendo Switch Drift, I think all my luck points went towards that lol

The SG-1000 is such a fascinating bit of history, you'd think Sega's first ever videogame console would leave SOME sort of impact, but even most gaming nerds have no idea it exists, including me for the longest time. Sega sure as hell has never referenced it lol

God I hate Warner Brothers

Still bugs me to this day that out of ALL the companies that could have bought the rights to Hudson Soft’s IPs, it was Konami No collections or re-releases, all we get is one mediocre Bomberman game once in a blue moon, so lame.

Big flea market haul! Lots of video game history and also a possum

I wish people could be kind, and like, think critically about things Would be nice if that incredibly low bar could be passed more often

I think I'm enraged 24/7 these days, everything is always so terrible and it genuinely feels like there is no hope People need to organize, it's the only escape valve at this point.

I just backed MINDWAVE on Kickstarter! www.kickstarter.com/projects/hol...

Because of all the Donkey Kong design discourse I've been thinking about what a modern redesign of Candy Kong would look like, I think it's pretty obvious that the reason she's the only major Kong that never comes back is because of uh, y'know

Cinema

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

If we don’t get a Switch 2 announcement tonight I’m gonna be so bummed out lol

Think I’m finally done with UFO 50 for the time being after roughly 300 hours In my list for top 10 favorite games EVER, completely ridiculous package

One thing I really want from the Xenoblade X remaster is playable representatives from the Alien races you ally with in the game Weirdly all the Alien party members you get as is are one offs, no playable Prones, Ma-nons, Zaruboggans, Orpheans, Wrothians, heck there isn't even a playable Nopon lol

Wii U vs Switch UI

I kinda split my time between Twitter and Bluesky, but Jesus, Twitter has been getting worse and worse somehow Which is insane because Twitter was already rock bottom, now it's subterranean and rapidly approaching the mantle on the other side of the planet lol

Da Squeaks

My new years resolution is that I get back into making youtube videos this year, or at least get a job in editing. Preferably both, I hope my crippling depression, anxiety and executive dysfunction doesn’t ruin me for the 15th year in a row! 😎

It’s so funny that Nintendo Music didn’t update this week, makes me think the entire thing is ran by one person manually doing the one game a week quota and they got the holiday off Instead of like, having a ton of games ready and scheduled to release in advance lol
