@Ghost_of_Hasashi I'd kill for a complete compilation of all the 2D momentum-based Sonics (the MD trilogy, the MS "ports", Triple Trouble, Blast, Chaos, Pocket Adventure, CD, and Chaotix)
One thing not mentioned in the article is that this meme is a derivative of a previous meme titled Gumbly, which was the same thing but with the Simpsons.
@Pat_trick Most of the things Nintendo are criticised for today date back to the Iwata era - fangame take downs, stingy business, limited supplies, and even shutting down charity events.
I call myself a Mario fan a lot, but really I'm more of a fan of the characters and world. His games are good but nothing special like many claim they are. DK and Wario games on the other hand? 🤌👌
Lost World is probably my favourite 3D Sonic game - that's partially because it throws out the book and tries to be its own thing rather than trying to replicate the magic of 2D Sonic without fleshing out the utmost important element of a Sonic game (momentum physics) like a certain 1998 release. I'm also quite partial to Colours and the 3D sections of Generations.
I've only just realised how many modern day retro-style RPGs insert "earth" into their name. Must've seen EarthBound become a Wii U top-seller got dollars in their eyes, kinda like how a lot of crossovers will put "smash" in their title.
Hmm... I wonder what happened to that rumoured Diddy Kong Racing 2? The one that supposedly had crossover characters from obscure animal-themed Nintendo IPs like Rusty and Dillon.
We get these Chicken Shoot spin-offs every 2 months. Apparently they're super popular in Germany so that explains the high quantity - but why localise them?

Re: Looks Like The Zelda & Loftwing Skyward Sword amiibo Will Cost More Than Other Figures
Just when you think Bowser's Nintendo have hit their lowest low, they dig lower.
Re: Hardware Review: RetroN Sq - An Affordable Way To Play The Entire Game Boy Library On Your Big Screen TV
Always trying to get Mole Mania in the box shots, eh?
Re: Talking Point: If Nintendo Released Them, Would You Play Virtual Boy Games In 2021?
VB Wario Land is an utter masterpiece, quite possibly the best platformer Nintendo has ever made.
Re: Crash Bandicoot 4 Voice Actors Tease "Fun New Project"
Probably either A. Wumpa League, or B. the cartoon was uncancelled.

@nessisonett The bottom right HUD on the second screenshot is a crime against humanity
Re: Random: Check Out These "Mock-Ups" Of Game Boy Advance For Switch Online
Drill Dozer, It's Mr. Pants, and Kuru Kuru Kururin would be must haves.
Re: Sega Looking To Release Brand New "Super Game" In The Next Five Years
Please don't lock any more long-awaited sequels behind Apple Arcade, thanks.
Re: Hotel Transylvania: Scary-Tale Adventures Gets Spooky On Switch This Halloween
Ooh hey, a new licensed game! Perhaps this could be-Outright Games, never mind.
Re: Former Metroid Prime Lead Designer Targeted With Abusive Messages
Can't wait for people to use this as a strawman argument against any Metroid-related requests or wishes.

No public sharing, no deal.
Re: Nintendo Says It's Already "Looking Into" Animations Beyond The Mario Movie
an animated DKC musical with the singers and songwriters of the DKC cartoon and competent scriptwriters would be amazing.
Re: Ni No Kuni II Might Be Coming To Switch
@TeamRocket47 There hasn't been a non-mobile Simpsons game in a while, has there? Perhaps "Hit and Rerun" is due...
Re: Random: You Can Buy A Fake "Animal Crossing New Horizons" Game On The Microsoft Store For Just $2.99
I mean, the title doesn't lie.

Re: Activision Blizzard CEO Agrees To Cut Huge Salary And Bonuses Following Industry Backlash
@NatiaAdamo The Nintendo fandom needs to cut out the idolatry, some awful *** happened under Iwata - Nintendo just became more brazen after his death.
Re: Surprise! SpongeBob: Krusty Cook-Off Has Just Launched On Nintendo Switch
"Nickelodeon, what convinced you to release a free mobile game on Switch for $30?"
"Money"

Pretty sure it's just a Plok costume.

Re: Humble Bundle Will Begin To Cap Charity Donations Next Month
That's counterintuitive...
Re: Tough Blow As Sonic Lost World Yoshi's Island DLC Is No Longer Wii U Exclusive

Re: Mini Review: Toree 3D - Low Poly, Pint-Sized Platforming For Pennies
This is the same devs as MacBat 64? Talk about a MAJOR improvement!
Re: The Xenoblade Chronicles Developer Monolith Soft Now Has 272 Employees
Hopefully enough to afford back pain pills for poor Pyra.
Re: Sonic Character Props Spotted On Film Set Of Sonic The Hedgehog 2
Knuckles looks so good - looks like what they were going for with the Boom design. Not too keen on the fuzzy Nike stripe though,
Re: Random: You Can Play Super Mario Bros. In Minecraft, As Long As You Don't Mind 10FPS
Isn't SMB1 already like 15-to-20 FPS as is?
Re: Nintendo Scores Another Victory In Its War Against Switch Piracy
This is a right shame.
Re: Sega Extends Jakks Pacific Partnership For More Classic And Modern Sonic Merch
@Goat_FromBOTW What are you talking about? The "Meta"/Boost era is when 3D Sonic became first good.
Anyway, that Mighty figure is 👌. I usually don't buy merchandise but I'd certainly want to pick up a Fang the Sniper figure or plushie.
Re: The Next Numskull Presents Showcase Will Reveal Two New Switch Games
Haven't seen much of Clive N' Wrench but I know Clive is in Antonball Deluxe.
Re: Random: Someone Turned A Nintendo GameCube Into A Flower Pot
That's kinda gross, gotta be honest.
Re: Celeste's Creators Are Working On A New "2D Explor-Action Game" With Secret Of Mana Vibes

Re: Mario Kart 8 Becomes The "Best-Selling" Racing Game In US History
Should've been CTR.
Re: Nintendo Collabs With Moonpig For New Range Of Official Greetings Cards
Strange how Nintendo still use DK Jr's SMK art for merchandise even though he isn't in Mario Kart anymore.
Re: F-Zero Isn't Dead - It's Just Sleeping, Says Nintendo Legend Takaya Imamura
Strange they'd say this considering how Yoshi and Kirby haven't evolved in the slightest since their first few games.
Re: Youtubers Life 2 Will Dodge DMCAs on Switch Later This Year
Google: takes down reviews and YouTube Poop edits for "violating copyright"
Also Google: leaves this up and allows it to be released as a paid product on major, highly regulated platforms.
Re: A New Super Monkey Ball Game Just Got Rated In Australia
I don't know whether this is the rumoured "Retro" or some other project entirely...
So I booked a ticket to the ACB headquarters in Australia to find out.

So just... the caves update and the cliffs update?
Re: OlliOlli World Grinds Onto Nintendo Switch This Winter
Art style is cool but I don't see what makes it unique in the world of Autorunners.
Re: Pokémon Happy Meals Are Returning To McDonald's In The UK Next Month
@RupeeClock I sure am.
Re: The Balan Wonderworld Demo Is Being Taken Down Today
Just when I thought the spectacle of dissapointment was over!
Re: Pokémon Happy Meals Are Returning To McDonald's In The UK Next Month
Oh dear lord, that is such boring, uninteresting graphic design. Just Pikachu on a red background and also the text is unaligned.
Re: Cuphead Will Have An Awesome Decade-Long 'Animated' Museum Exhibit
@PiXeLSteF They said they'll release it with the DLC...
so likely after the Switch's lifespan.

Saaaay, Bowser.... what price for the Drill Dozer IP? Mole Mania?
Re: Rumour: Sonic Colors Remaster Listed In Localisation Company's Credits
They chose the right modern game to remake.
Re: New Animal Crossing Build-A-Bear Character Arriving This Summer
K.K. Slider or a Villager probably.
