I'm fine with gross out humour, I like it in fact, and I could stand this for the most part, but this is NOT the sort of game you give a giant banner ad - urgh, I feel queasy looking at it!
Everything the Mega Drive could do the SNES could do better from a technical standpoint, however that does not make the SNES better than the MD. The games are what matter, and both are equally as great in those regards.
I'd love to see more collabs between Nintendo, MS, and Sony - maybe even Valve too. Whether you prefer portly plumbers, wrathful demigods, or space soldiers, we can all get along at the end of the day.
I know Crash was seen in the past as a PS mascot, but considering how Mario-inspired his games are he's a natural fit for Nintendo (not that a game has to be a "natural fit" to get on Switch, but still), I've had a ton of fun with N. Sane Trilogy on Switch, and I've almost sunk 300 hours into CTR, also on Switch.
I'm not the biggest Banjo fan, but I was on "team real" for the leaks so it was pretty hype to be right, and pretty cool to get another platformer rep.
Not a fan of this series or Metroidvanias in general, but if I were to make a remake of this game, I'd use her less cute, more westernised design from the GBC box art.
@Onion @Papichulo They recently rereleased Mappy Kids (also Japan exclusive) in the west on the Evercade (complete with an original localisation and the accidental KKK references censored out), so it wouldn't surprise me if they localised the Famicom Splatterhouse game as well. I imagine they used it as opposed to the mainline Splatterhouse games as to make the compilation appropriate to a younger audience - it'd be kinda dumb to make a compilation filled with family friendly games then slap a single gorefest in the middle.
@TJWorks Actually it's been improving since the second movie, no more The Splinters or One Coarse Meals! (well, there was Ink Lemonade, but other than that it'd been improving heavily)

30FPS gang rise up!
Re: Random: Forget The Switch, Super Mario 64 Has Been Ported To Dreamcast, PS2 And PS Vita
I want to see it on Saturn personally - how would Mario 64 look on inferior but similar tech?
Re: Thunder Lotus Apologises For Ableist Storyline In Spiritfarer, Pledges To "Correct The Mistake"

Good riddance!
F*** ableism, f*** racism, f*** transphobia, f*** homophobia, f*** fatphobia, embrace all kinds of people and don't question it.
Re: Review: Struggling - One Of The Most Aptly-Named Video Games We've Ever Played

Re: Review: Hypnospace Outlaw - A Clever Satire Of The Early Days Of The World Wide Web
Love the aesthetic, but not a fan of Point and Click. As a 90s enthusiast I'll have to watch a playthrough!
Re: Japanese Charts: Animal Crossing: New Horizons Rules Again As It Nears 5.6 Million Physical Sales
Shame that Sony and MS aren't selling that well.
Re: Deals: Get Great Savings On Legend Of Zelda And Animal Crossing Goodies With Zavvi
I've always disliked merchandise like that Animal Crossing mug that's just the logo on a product. No imagery or characters, just the logo.
Re: Nintendo Partners With Lunchables To Give Away Switch Consoles In The US
The ham is godlike, but everything else in Lunchables is utterly disgusting.
Re: Image & Form's New Game Is "Permanently Exclusive" To Xbox And Windows
Just wait until people become nostalgic for the 2020s. Then it'll be on everything.
Re: Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 Arrives On Switch This December
@LatsaSpege The first one had a ton of adult jokes in the story mode. Why? I don't know.
Re: Sega Says It Wants To Re-Release More Past Titles On Nintendo Switch
Seems my request for Bug! has gone to waste...
Re: Another Sonic The Hedgehog Double Pack Appears To Be Coming To Switch
Sega should really retry Sonic racing on foot. The "boost formula" is absolutely perfect for racing.
Re: Pre-Orders Go Live For Moon, The '90s 'Anti-RPG' Launching In The West For The Very First Time
I gotta be honest, first time I saw this game's box art I assumed it was an obscure Plok spin-off.
Re: Netflix's Gaming Documentary High Score Is A Nostalgia Trip Worth A Watch
"4K" and "beautiful" should never be in the same sentence. 30FPS 4:3 for life!

Alex Kidd DX is going to sell very well, I can guarantee.
Re: Random: Finally, Sonic The Hedgehog Spins Onto The Super Nintendo
Everything the Mega Drive could do the SNES could do better from a technical standpoint, however that does not make the SNES better than the MD. The games are what matter, and both are equally as great in those regards.

Re: Random: Modder Makes Fully-Functioning Mario Kart Course Inside Zelda: Breath Of The Wild
I wish Nintendo would add official mod support.
Re: Random: Japan's Mysterious Sonic Statue Receives A Fittingly Puzzling Restoration
I remember hearing that Sega were looking into restoring the statue, so it might have been Sega themselves.
Re: Switch Version Of Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time Potentially Leaked By Official Website
I know Crash was seen in the past as a PS mascot, but considering how Mario-inspired his games are he's a natural fit for Nintendo (not that a game has to be a "natural fit" to get on Switch, but still), I've had a ton of fun with N.

Re: Rumour: Rocketman Actor Is Reportedly Attached To A Tetris Movie
So, it's not a movie about intergalactic travel made by the person who brought us FoodFight?
Re: Nintendo's Directors Earn A Relatively Modest Wage Compared To Other Industry Execs
@impurekind Well, now we know what the ending of WarioWare was inspired by.
Re: Is The Original Super Monkey Ball Announcer Teasing A New Game?
This is probably how video games will be announced in a post-corona world.
Re: It's Been One Year Since Banjo-Kazooie Was Revealed For Smash Bros. Ultimate
I'm not the biggest Banjo fan, but I was on "team real" for the leaks so it was pretty hype to be right, and pretty cool to get another platformer rep.
Re: WayForward Says It's Open To A Remake Of The Original Shantae Game
Not a fan of this series or Metroidvanias in general, but if I were to make a remake of this game, I'd use her less cute, more westernised design from the GBC box art.

Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl #46 - Sonic The Hedgehog 3
Glad to know I'm not the only fan of Greg Martin's Sonic!
Re: Suda51 Shares First In-Game Look At Travis Touchdown In No More Heroes 3
So it's about this guy named Travis, and he's the last hero - there are no more heroes! funniest stuff I've ever seen!
IDK I've never played the game.
Re: Yes, Sega's "Revolutionary" Announcement Is To Use Its Arcades As Cloud Gaming Data Centers
I'm happily disappointed. I was worried it'd be some sort of buyout or new console, the LAST thing Sega needs right now.

Re: Could Disney's Epic Mickey Series Be Making A Comeback?
OK, this is Epic Mickey.
Except the whole "Funko Pop" part, that is extremely un-epic.
Re: Dixie Kong Celebrates Her Mario Kart Tour Debut With A Special Timeline Video

Re: Saucy Dungeon Crawler Moero Crystal H Is Making Its Western Debut On Switch
All my kinks are extremely niche and obscure, would be impossible in a real life context and have literally nothing to do with people having sex.
I like it that way, especially compared to the alternatives like this.
