Today I'm releasing an early prototype of Nintendo's "Joy Mech Fight" (FC), from over a year before its release! This build, then named "Battle Battle League" (FDS), was created for the 1992 Nintendo-Dentsu Game Seminar. Links are below! hiddenpalace.org/Battle_Battl...

It's a really bold strategy to proudly present evidence that makes you look more incompetent. Placing the blame on the artist being crunched (not a great thing to admit either???) doesn't add up with what we can actually see. Maybe the people in charge legitimately believe that story, but yeah, no.

my shadows propaganda 😔🙏 #fireemblem #feshadows

Fire Emblem new mobile game gave me royalty yuri, so of course I had to draw them before possibly thinking about sleeping today🤭✨ (Kurt & Rose👑) #FireEmblem #FireEmblemShadows #FEShadows #FE #LousticArt

ok no false alarm its just, woman pretending to be a man for royal heir reasons. but. she has a fiancé. that knows shes a woman. so, shadow dropped canon fe yuri.

I cannot believe where the story in fire emblem among us goes holy shit

We did it guys We uploaded the unique music / battles from the stream on the bottom of the page here if you want to check it out! undertale.com/10/

good stream cried.

The only thing history will remember about spineless men like Fleming is how quickly and willingly they went from standing to kneeling.

Wouldn't have noticed the higher resolution textures in the new Galaxy re-release without the side-by-side comparison to 3D All-Stars, lol. It's good they didn't just rip that version out of the collection and resell it, but the pricing for these is still absurdly steep for two Wii games.

Wait hang on these are adorable…

It's once again time for me to partake in that popular American tradition! ...huh? Oh, no, I won't be mourning any fascist ghouls; I'm talking about predicting which products will be advertised to me! Nothing else can keep me ensnared in mindless consumerism like a brand new Nintendo Direct.

I will not grieve people whose only connection to my life is through the wrongs they have done. I owe them nothing and I reserve the right to celebrate how their death makes my life an inherently better place. That doesn't make me their killer, that simply makes me someone they cannot wrong again.

This is what video games are all about…

The new accidental showing of their vehicles makes it clear that extend14 is AiAi, and extend15 is NiGHTS (yay!) That'd make them the next two Sega guests after Ichiban based on their vehicle types, but there's still the two extend13 Sonic characters before them; who could they be...

One down, five (plus whatever other games were there that couldn't be identified) to go. www.youtube.com/watch?v=dHbN...

I didn't want to make another thread in a row about a mascot kart racer, but these finds still aren't documented elsewhere days later... It seems that at some point Sonic Racing CrossWorlds not only had tracks from other Sega series, it may have just directly been a third All-Stars Racing game.

As first discovered by @justanotheruser5.bsky.social, Nintendo have unintentionally shown us the internal names for Mario Kart World's courses. Most notably (found by @polley001.bsky.social) this reveals that Faraway Oasis was originally N64 DK's Jungle Parkway: www.nintendo.com/jp/games/swi...

All I needed to be fully pleased with the Air Riders roster was either Marx or Susie. Didn't think Susie would be the one to happen first though, and ESPECIALLY never expected Sakurai to know what Parallel Susie is, lol

Some very specific keywords on the UK upload of the Air Riders Direct...

Sonic series composer Tee Lopes has shared a song celebrating the 8th anniversary of Sonic Mania, dubbed "The Outback". This coincides with Christian Whitehead sharing images of an outback-themed 2.5D level prototype, giving fans a small look at what led to Sonic Superstars' development. #SonicNews

Don’t skip out on Dear me, I was… This is the type of short yet meaningful experience you’d usually only find from the smallest independent developers; yet here comes ArcSys, publishing something like this as their first release on a big new console. Video games desperately need more of this.

It *was* a time critical moment, and itch's communication (or lack thereof for many hours) is a failure on just about every level, outside of directly naming those aussie cunts Valve were afraid to. You'd have to be the most gullible motherfucker alive to believe "🫡" was the only feasible heads-up.

Good job harassing the queer woman who lost her job after she shined a light on the puritans pressuring payment processors that directly leads to shit like this by proxy, assholes.

I was expecting Bananza to be a fun time (cool movement mechanics alone are enough to sell me), but I ended up blown away by just how good it is. Definitely among the best games Nintendo have ever produced; maybe even their best platformer to date.

Been seeing plenty of chatter about that N64 NSO slip up. There are other games visible (if you could call it that, lol) that I'm not confident in identifying, but these six are unmistakably there: Donkey Kong 64, Forsaken 64, Glover, Ogre Battle 64, Rayman 2 and Smash Bros.

to anyone thinks that gaming communities can’t affect positive real world change with their collective actions one full throat boycott & in less than 24 hours, one of the most popular games on Twitch reversed course on accepting major sportswashing Saudi money

As long as they stay decently varied, having over 100 of these tiny missions is maybe one of the most exciting elements of World; justifies Free Roam on its own. (also I couldn’t find any decent upload of the Squeaky Clean Sprint arrangement on bsky so I’m doing it myself; this soundtrack rules)

Did Nintendo (NCL) accidentally confirm two unannounced Switch 2 Edition games on their website? Normally I'd say speculation based on random site changes would be very unwise, but this one seems far too specific to be coincidental, and these two choices wouldn't be unexpected regardless.

Oh it wasn't just the eShop, the NSO app actually looks usable now too.

Huge fan of Sutte Hakkun; fun little puzzle platformer. Really happy to finally see it get an official international release (even though they didn't alter anything in the game itself, lol)

I kid you not, @itch.io has been taken down by Funko of "Funko Pop" because they use some trash "AI Powered" Brand Protection Software called Brand Shield that created some bogus Phishing report to our registrar, iwantmyname, who ignored our response and just disabled the domain
