    What If Nintendo Had Followed Sega's Direction During The 2000s?

    To be fair, "serious" doesn't necessarily involve grimdark themes. "Serious" in this context can mean a greater stakes plot with a greater emotional punch, like for example, one of your own allies betraying you and siding with the enemy because your allies has been killing people that share his...

    Super Mario-Kun

    idk Super Mario-kun is a gag manga and has no problems with making practically all characters irreverent. That being said I do wish we had a long running manga series with a more model-accurate art style like those weird Mario Party ones.

    What If Nintendo Had Followed Sega's Direction During The 2000s?

    Hi, I'm a person who think Mario is incapable of having more "serious" stories (I use the term "serious" very loosely because we're talking "seriously" in terms of E-rated, 6+ rated storylines here) simply because the franchise is not built for it, period.

    What If Daisy Got Her Own Game?

    Daisy can be a star of this hack and slash epic action RPG with an in-depth combat system where she beats up Tatanga's army and some original eldritch abominations.

    The one Dragon Quest I really want to play is IV, the one with Kiryl in it. Another one I do want to play is both Dragon Quest Heroes (the musou spinoffs) one but unfortunately they gutted the co-op so I can't enjoy it with my sis; would have played it sooner if they did have fully featured...

    The "True" 2.5D Mario platformer

    I have never liked the orthographic 2D tilesets that were always there and it always made the Mario games look dated in comparison to their contemporaries (like Kirby, Donkey Kong, and Sonic). It was cute when NSMBDS did it in their first entry back in the DS era but by the time Super Mario...

    does anyone here still play animal crossing new leaf??

    I liked New Leaf but I have no desire to pick it back up again. Me and my sister's town is littered with pansies and random design patterns everywhere. I really wish every single item was rebuyable from the catalog, kinda bullshit there are tons of one and done items that you end up storing...

    Do you support the clones?

    I'm not exactly justifying this but it's very apparent to the Mario Kart developers that characters are very low in the team's development priorities, because to them, they're just skins with different stats, regardless if if they look like Wario or if they look like Bowser. Tracks are really...

    Do you think Donkey Kong Country games are still the best/some of the best snes games if you strip them from their beautiful graphics and music?

    "If you strip Donkey Kong Country of the things that made it good, would it still be a good game?" The game you're describing wouldn't even be Donkey Kong Country anymore, it would be an entirely different game. A game is a sum of parts, you can't just extract essential portions from it and be...

    Do you support the clones?

    Clones are cost efficient characters that are basically the result of leftovers, plus Metal Mario and Pink Gold Peach have the benefit of being medium-sized heavy characters (with Pink Gold Peach in particular being made for the female audience). They should not be receiving as much hate as they...

    Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

    Well I put Donkey Kong on their team too, usually the bad guy team is like Wario, Waluigi, Donkey Kong, and Ganondorf.

    Honestly they should make Waluigi playable. Him and Toad are long requested characters.

    Well their recent movie outputs hasn't been bad. I've quite enjoyed The Bad Guys and many people loved The Last Wish. Though they did have their share of meh films like Kung Fu Panda 4 and Teenage Kraken though. I don't know what people thought of their other films recently though, I haven't...

    Idk I think the art style is an improvement over the old one. It's a slight change to the face but they look more expressive and colorful. Just take some time to get used to it. All I'm hoping is the writing to be good, really. Shrek has had more good films than bad ones so I'm hopeful it would...

    Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds

    It depends on what you define as a kart racer. There are some weapons-based racers like Twisted Metal that aren't exactly kart-based but they rely on weapons to gain the advantage. But generally, no, I don't think games need to reinvent the wheel when it comes to items systems because the basic...

    Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds

    Knuckles is a shoe-in for Sonic games in terms of my favorites, Cream and the Babylon Rogues are just a bonus. The Deadly Six are fine picks tbh, I do recognize them more than, say, Mighty the Armadillo. Really hope he has the same effects as the Quake or the Swarm here.

    Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

    Can't care too much about tierlists because how I play the game fundamentally differs (I play with items on, 8 player smash, with stage morph, and in all stages) and the way the competitive scene plays the game is by no means the "correct" way to play the game.

    Car customization. 👀You can finally use parts from other characters of a shared type, customizing the front, back, and tire parts of your car. Oh and paint jobs, which include the main body, tire, glow, and cockpit and the paint's texture.

    Do you have any video game plushies?

    A have a whole bunch. There's a pic I took of my collection ages ago but it's long outdated. I'll need to set them all up in order to get a pic. Basically have most of the San-ei plushies for Mario and many Pokemon.
