  • wikipedia claims to be 'the free encyclopedia that anyone can edit' but when you venture beyond the realm of 'basic' editing (fixing typos, correcting broken links, removing obvious spam/vandalism), you'll discover that a great many articles are effectively controlled by either a single editor or a clique of editors who regard it as being their own personal fiefdom for them to do with as they please (namely promoting their own specific POV of the subject of the article)

    Exactly. Tried to edit the page for 'Praying Mantis' because I don't like praying mantises and three hooded men showed up outside my house the next day.

    That game is truly a masterpiece. People say the devs must have spent forever perfecting this game before it came out. I think it's the best Pokemon game ever!

    If you told me leading up to the release of scarlet/violet that the games would barely function, i would imidietly think you're stupid.
    Fast forward to today and these games are the biggest disappointment of any game I own.
    I JUST LEARNED THAT SAMUS ARAN WAS NAMED AFTER PELÉ????????/ THE FOOTBALLER????????

    (if you're wondering how: hiroji kiyotake, a football fan and designer on the orignal metroid, named the character after pelé's real name except he thought pelé's real name was 'samus arantus nascimentos' and not 'edson arantes do nascimento')

    this image is airdropped to nintendo developers whenever they try to make new characters in spin-off mario games
    didn't realize until i saw this image but congrats to modern paper mario for getting rid of all the female characters sans peach, birdo, and then one third female character in each game, i guess?

    Hmm, I'm always suspicious of these classic Paper Mario vs Modern Paper Mario images, a lot of them try to make the classic side look better by any means possible

    you can literally check the articles on the wiki and see that there's like 0 female characters in the modern paper mario games lol (there are 'technically' other female characters in color splash and origami king [read there's like one more in color splash and like 2 more in origami king] but itś really like..even if you count them, it still utterly pales in comparison to the original era)

    I agree that it was horseshit of Nintendo to remove all the unique characters from the Paper Mario games and replace them with generic ones. In the old Paper Mario games, you had all these unique Toads with unique designs, but since Paper Mario, they all look practically the same, with the only difference being a generic color scheme change. Not only that, but you also had all these other unique looking characters with unique designs, colors, clothing and personalities, but those too have been removed because Miyamoto-san didn't like Intelligent Systems being original with the character cast in the first three Paper Mario games. Fuck you, Nintendo. Fuck you.
    i still have not started paper mario the thousand year door or princess peach showtime but i cannot start princess peach showtime because i think the shrinkwrap nintendo uses is what they wrap fort fuckin knox in lol
    people will join this forum and make like 6 posts and they're all completely insane and then their threads get
    moved to thread storage and they never show up again for like 4 months and then come back and start posting the exact same shit again and then get hit with a permaban by the mods

    it's wild
    In the Greek dub of Thomas the Tank Engine, the Fat Controller/Sir Topham Hatt is called Kýrios Chontropatátas, which basically translates to MR FATTY POTATO

    That's honestly really funny.

    As someone from Greece, i can confirm that is what translates to
    (But seriously i had no idea about this and I'm dying from laughter right now)
    I have Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door and Princess Peach Showtime now.

    BEFORE YOU SAY ANYTHING LIKE 'Wtf Viola your grandpa died and you bought video games???????????????????' let me point out two things:
    1. I had an NSO voucher to use that I redeemed to get TTYD digitally yesterday. (I bought the vouchers back in March because I wanted Pokémon Shield and was saving the other for something else)

    2. I bought Princess Peach Showtime physically yesterday with cash BEFORE my grandpa died, OK. He died at 8:42 pm and I was at GameStop at like 7pm when I bought the game. I was not out shopping knowing he was dead, I was at home when I learned it.

    THIS ALL HAPPENED YESTERDAY BEFORE HE DIED, I AM 100% GUILT-FREE WITH THESE PURCHASES.

    I don't think you need to excuse yourself. You handle grief any way you can. Anyone telling you that you have no right to unload or even find a little bit of joy after a family member passes away is a sanctimonious asshat, especially since many people probably don't wish for their relatives to endlessly incur the weight of their passing or to find no respite from it.

    You are not guilty. You may celebrate the memories of your grandpa as you also celebrate your limited life on earth.
    He's gone y'all.

    My grandpa just passed.
    I don't care what the Nintenzoomers say, Super Mario 64 DS is not and never will be a good version of Super Mario 64.

    'Yeah I love to play the port of the game that literally popularised analog controls on a system that doesn't have an analog stick'
    - Literally what insane people say

    They were so close to having the best version of Mario 64 but they just botched the controls so bad D:

    Don't get me wrong, I can get used to them, but I'm not going to say they're even remotely close to as good as they were in the original.

    @Sir Pentious I'm literally turning 28 in a few weeks, I was born in what's widely accepted as the last birth year for Millennials (1996).
    Why the fuck do we celebrate pride 'month', why are we humoring the delusions of people who actually believe that months exist????

    As an actual month, I can confirm months exist. I saw the Glory of the 12 Months as a young child and I've been a believer ever since.
