    One thing I found amusing about Everybody 1-2-Switch! is how that game was revealed. It was revealed in June 2023 with hardly much fanfare, and then it was released at the end of that month. This timing is funny because that means Nintendo never need to include this game in their quarterly...

    winstein's art that are drawn by him, take a look if you want

    Losing a Bone Head In the history of The ? Panel, I haven't done a completely silent comic. This is the style of comic that I really enjoyed the most because it makes for a breezier read compared to ones with text, and when I came up with this idea, the opportunity to make one has come. This...

    Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds

    Monster Truck reads to me like it'll be similar to Mega Mushroom. Not full-on invincibility but it can crush other racers. It's interesting how Shield is the game's Super Star, mainly because Sonic games have the Invincibility item already. Thank you for reading.

    Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds

    I'm of the unpopular opinion that the Deadly Six would be fine additions because they rarely appeared, and I hope that the entire group appear this time. They provide a needed variety to the roster in my opinion. Anyway, one of the things that struck me about this game's item list is how...

    What game did you last play?!?!?!?

    Whispering Willows (Nintendo Switch) While the game seems promising, what kills it for me is that the loading times are looong. Going into different rooms take a very long time to load that I probably won't bother with most of the game. If I were to want to try it again, I would probably just...

    Which NS1 games you'd go with DLCs over sequels on NS2?

    Personally think that it would be funny if one of the Mario RPGs get DLC. These series are basically fan favourites so having more lore to take in would be a treat for those who loves the original characters and settings. Super Mario RPG might have a new area to explore that might require the...

    MarioWiki Poll Discussion

    I picked "I have played the Wii or 3DS versions of the game and have no interest in the HD version" (8th option) I've played through the 3DS version and while I enjoyed it, I have no desire to go through it again. Yes it's fun, but not "I want to pay $60 to play it again" fun. At the very least...

    Time to predict: who'd make it into base game for Mario Kart NS2 this time?

    Foreman Spike is a good one. But if I were to suggest, then I think some of the Mario family that are introduced in the Mario movie would be fun to see, especially the Papa. Thank you for reading.

    So what's wrong with King K. Rool in NS1 era?

    There's nothing wrong with King K. Rool. The fact that King K. Rool is a Smash fighter is already the most glorious position a video game character can be. Relatively lesser-known characters are considerably more popular than the prominent characters in their home series, like how Incineroar is...

    New Mario Kart game shown for Nintendo Switch 2

    I think the best part for me about this trailer is that Daisy and Waluigi are going to be present and playable. Some may argue that they're a given, but after Waluigi's exclusion in Mario Kart 7, this is something that's not worth taking for granted. (Now the so-called big 8 of Mario Kart...

    If presented an option to choose a character, would you still pick Mario?

    As a bit of transparency, I picked Mario in every category because I like Mario. So if you want the true results that exclude someone who's biased, you can subtract one from each category and that's the true statistic. That's the spirit of things, basically. It would not feel like you want to...

    If presented an option to choose a character, would you still pick Mario?

    One of the frequent things that some fans say about Mario is that, if there presents an option to play as a different character, then Mario would not be picked as a result for various reasons. Perhaps the reason could be that a different character is normally not playable so they want to give...

    Super Mario Party Jamboree

    Personally I think that the best way to get 5 stars is a coordinated effort by human players, especially online. I do not know how many humans are required to make the dream come true, but everyone must at least be: (1) great at minigames, and (2) able to handle the bombs and coins. Since CPUs...

    post any random Mario thought on your mind

    There was Nintendo All-Star Battle Cards which took characters from Nintendo 64 games and put them on cards. Some they were from Nintendo games but some were from third-party games that nonetheless have Nintendo 64 games. They were from the UK Nintendo magazine Nintendo Official Magazine (later...

    Post Any Cartoon Thought On Your Mind

    Animaniacs taught me that shows have hidden adult references or innuendos for those adults. Not that I caught this when the show was running, because I didn't even know this. It was a web reviewer whose initials is NC that I only noticed this. Now I have to figure out if there is some hidden...
