The Water Temple is perfectly fine in OoT 3D. The problem was having to go into the menu to equip and unequip the boots constantly. 3D made them a normal item mapped to a face button. Made the dungeon way easier.

Aw yeah. AI modified art and a game key card. We are being FED KH fans.

We used to be a society. A proper society...

Pikuniku is awesome and the sequel was one of the highlights of the last week of game announcements to me. It's a short game so worth the 2 bucks for sure.

Well, now why wasn't this in the Direct?!

For those who don't know Velan, it is comprised of Vicarious Visions veterans who left as Activision began to hollow that studio out and turn it into a support studio for Call of Duty. Good for them.

Ya know, for being a game that almost got left in Japan, they sure have ported and rereleased the first Xenoblade on every (non Wii U) Nintendo console since it came out.

The main thing I don't want from the Ocarina of Time remake is for them to try to make it open world. I guess I don't know how they would that. Make the world like 5x larger and change the story to be non-linear? Idk. But I just... I don't want open world. I want a normal Zelda.

CASE IN POINT:

Fire Emblem being the next 80 dollar Switch 2 game seems like a... misguided call.

The Switch 2 is weird, man.

Not a lot in there for me, personally. Kingdom Hearts will be fun in 10 years though.

Whooooooooa Nintendo got the KH4 trailer.

I should probably play Deltarune.

Oh I love PikuNiku though.

Hope resonates within the crystals. We're all always saying this.

Big fan of this recent Donkey Kong push.

Alright. I'm gonna try to at least listen to the Direct at work but if I can't, I need you to all refrain from posting spoilers or thoughts for like 6 hours, okay? You can do it. I believe.

I'm gonna need the Lorcana market to calm down a little bit. I don't need this turning into Pokemon or One Piece. It's like the only thing that brings me joy right now.

The Milkshake Ducking of the new Crazy Taxi has been swift and vicious.

Alright here's my not very exciting Nintendo Direct predictions: -Ocarina of Time remake is real. I will be grumpy about it but want to play it anyway. -Fire Emblem overview + release date. Takes up like 5+ minutes. People whine. -Pikmin 4 Switch 2 Edition -SMASH BROS... 64 and Melee on NSO lol

trans rights actually aren't extra rights they're just the same rights everybody else has that you're trying to take away from trans people. sorry you have trouble with this, but it means you're a bigot not that we're wrong.

One last Yoshi post before the Direct tomorrow! This was an awesome game with some super fun lore, and I’m glad we got it! Now we’re onto the craziness that is the mega Direct tomorrow!!! 😁

Experimenting with some Sweet Home (NES) inspired horror characters to get into a spooky mindset for a protentional project! I always start with Sam my favorite, I loved how this came out and wanted to share.

The Toy Story collection is still the most exciting game for me of anything announced this last week. I'm sure Nintendo has something but mostly I've just felt nothing from the big video game showcases. Cuphead was close.

My fellow cis folks, The FCC is asking Americans to submit comments about whether the TV Oversight Management Board (TVOMB) should create new TV ratings to alert viewers to trans/gender content. Time to be an ally and tell the FCC absolutely the fuck not. It takes five minutes to do.

boosting to my fellow haters

I know that some Nintendo leaks and rumors end up being true but honestly 95% of them are just the same shit every single generation. Just a never ending loop of the same "leaks".

She's having the Lumas ask Rosalina to tell them a story. 😭

There are currently more bills attacking trans youth’s right to play sports across the U.S. than there are trans youth in school sports.

Yalls aren't playing the new Spyro unless Microsoft stops supporting Israel's genocide and BDS calls off the boycott, right? Right?

I saw this post before I saw the actual announcement lol Gaming is so fucked.

I'm very pro these compilations of old licensed games because otherwise they'd just be in purgatory forever. This one even has an old unreleased game on it. That's neat! That said, these are all like... bad, right? This is the Jurassic Park collection all over again?

Running it back for @tmgexpo.bsky.social on release weekend -- come try Deluge for yourself!

You guys, the White House accidentally ordered 10x the amount of Porta-Potties that they needed. The lawn is just acres of Porta-Potties. It’s all fenced off and you can’t see, but I took this photo through a hole in the fence netting.

Guess who's getting to see the finale later today!

This looks really cool but being more Super Mario Kart inspired than literally any of the 3D ones is a baffling call.

Are you suggesting I could mock up this piece of totally legitimate pre-release boxart? You think I have time to do something like that?

Thank you social media, for keeping me in the loop on the thing I didn't watch and helped me realize I was correct to do so. Most exciting thing for me personally is the new Cuphead game I won't beat cause I never beat the first one and the TMNT game I won't play but sounds cool anyway.

Wait a minute. Where's Aerith?

Well. At least he's alive to consent to it.

Sonic celebrating their 35th anniversary by letting someone other than Sonic Team develop a Sonic game.

When will they announce a remake of Billy Hatcher and the Giant Cock?

I truly just cannot bring myself to care about Summer Games Fest.

Happy Anniversary to Mario Kart World and the Switch 2!!!

The Mormons in Utah have a Scientology-level infiltration of the government from top to bottom out there. They cover for each other. The only question remaining is if it's just the cops and B&M, or if the LDS itself is involved in the silencing effort.
