In Mario Party, minigame descriptions treat being eliminated merely as being out of the game, except for Bumper Balls, which drastically shifts the tone by stating the winner is the last one left alive. This implies that while other minigames might be for fun, Bumper Balls is to the death.

that concludes our decades long social experiment "video games." please fill out a survey and turn it in at the table on the left as you exit

dollar and Neanderthal are half-cognates. Thal means a dale or valley. Neanderthal/Neander Valley is where the first remains were found. a popular form of coinage in the 1500s was from Joachimsthal, and were called Joachimsthalers or thalers for short, which became dollars in English.

r/TrueSwanFolk 2d u/falafellbeast anyone else miss the "season 0" gag manga Swan boy? 5 ⬆️ 23 ⬇️ u/CallToRetention (Top 1% 🦢) It was cute, but TBH there's a reason why the Noel: Torsion T Arc movie made the series mainstream. 73 ⬆️ 1 ⬇️ u/HouseholdDGojo the powerscaleing made nonsense back then 32 ⬆️

Pick One of Three has come for Resident Evil. game's have fallen

some day nintendo is going to release a humanly playable version of star fox zero on a platform that normal people bought, and on that day a lot of people are going to realize it's not actually a remake of 64

where does the nyt keep finding these guys for profiles

A commonly shared Super Mario Bros. fact is that "the clouds and bushes are the same", but the bushes only use half the cloud graphics. However, this statement turns out to be completely true for WarioWare: Twisted, where the bushes are actually just full green clouds buried halfway in the ground.

On this May 4th I am remembering how in the short brilliant life of Cohost @dimosar.bsky.social made not one but two of the best Star Wars posts in history

oh my god, the mgs2 source leak has some demo versions of scenes that the trailers were recorded on, including the scrapped flooding tanker sequence interestingly it's purely visual, with no collision or sound on the water youtu.be/spxSrMMk8kE?...

In 1993, we traveled to Denmark for "The Party", a large demoscene event. We were creating the Amiga version of MC. I made a drawing for our table, showing Moon Child keeping Sonic from running. I don't have the drawing anymore. Maybe one of the cool artists on Bluesky would like to recreate it? 🙂

this is literally the plot of dark souls 3

Hey, is this story true?

remember when jason schreier vaguetweeted that some games felt a little too long (tlou2 had just come out) and baker immediately ran into his replies with a poem by teddy roosevelt about how all critics are worthless

there is something incredibly serendipitous about twitter tearing itself apart over whether it's piracy to mod a dead free phone game back to playability, while bsky was celebrating a random 30 year old amiga platformer preserved through piracy and open source releases

Having received so much love for our good old #MoonChild game, we are happy to give love back to the game community by releasing the Moon Child source files + assets. Details can be read in the ReadMe text. We're looking forward to see what you're going to create! 💚 bitbucket.org/rhinoid/moon...

jon mcnaughton must be so angry that he's the one artist in the world that the slop machines can perfectly replicate

there's something very pure about how every single amiga game could be effortlessly passed off as a biting parody of amiga games

"good idea, bad execution" when discussing art is a meaningless filler phrase. at best it's for wanting to sound nuanced when you feel uncomfortable with simply disliking something, and at worst it's a reflexive defense when you realize it actually did go over your head at first

excuse me

when a game refers to a common real world animal or plant that doesn't seem to exist in the game world (the "millennium falcon" thing) subordinate: when it does exist but is given a toponymic prefix ("Hylian rice") despite being the only known kind

I remember watching Wing as a kid, not really understanding the plot, and assuming I wasn't old enough to really get this mature anime where everyone talked about war and philosophy then I grew up and realized I didn't get it because it's unbelievably stupid

every inch of this is obviously gold, but the hidden best part is that they genuinely can't gin up any badass copy for the fish so that text's just sandwiched between the other two

full version, the vocal samples from the original were getting too big for the SNES memory restrictions so i had to improvise lol

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.

people are reporting big windfalls in the form of good harvests, love magic, and finding buried treasure after burying a bowl covered in incantations to trap demons under their house

In Super Mario Odyssey, many Goombas can be stacked. The limit for a legitimate Goomba stack is 30, as they will stop spawning afterwards. Manually spawning more Goombas reveals that the limit for an illegitimate Goomba stack is 200. At 201 Goombas, the game crashes.

guys in star wars used to be called “droopy mccool” and “fling bongus.” now they’re all called like “baylen zender.” i think this says a lot about society.

hey uh these ones seem a bit noteworthy beyond being AI generated
