Re: Sonic Team Open To More Characters From Comic Series Appearing In Games

Coolmusic

When it comes to Archie, the only character I really would have liked to see in the games was Thunderbolt the Chinchilla. She was a hilarious evil villian imo.

As for the IDW characters, I don't have any particular faves but I wouldn't mind seeing Clutch the Opossum make a mainline game debut. He's more or less IDW Sonic's version of Marvel Comics' Kingpin and it would be interesting seeing a underworld criminal mastermind scheming plans and creating trouble for Sonic and co. whenever they are not dealing with Eggman.

Re: Round Up: Every Switch Highlight At The Future Games Show - Summer Showcase 2024

Excluding Antonblast because I already been gunning for it for a long time now, only Nikoderiko has caught my interest. Platformer with DKC Returns and Crash Bandicoot-like gameplay, and David Wise as the composer? It has my attention.

@Yalloo: I agree the god-awful pop song is trash, but in fairness Wise himself didn't make it (its a 2019 song by John Coggins, Devin Moore and Steve Kofsky), and I doubt he had any say on it being used for the trailer. I would wait to assume the worst until we hear some actual in-game music.

Re: Sonic X Shadow Generations Speeds Onto Switch This October

Man the US boxart cover is bad, I get that this is all part of Sega's "Year of Shadow" marketing plans but I don't like how they just slapped him inbetween Classic and Modern Sonic like that (the fact that the Sonics' cover artwork are from the original Generations makes it look even more awkward).

The JP cover, while looking more like something that should be used for a future SA2 remaster/remake, is way better in comparision.

Re: Nintendo Announces Acquisition Of Shiver Entertainment

Coolmusic

Can't say I'm impressed since Shiver's works (their ports) are just bad, but Nintendo likely wants the company for their technical knowledge; in this case, porting 3rd-party games to the Switch (and Switch 2) if nothing else.
Only time will tell if Shiver will get better or not on their job in the long run.

And while this isn't exactly a "loss" for Embracer, the less that awful company has the better imo.

Re: Random: Chris Pratt Looks Back On The Mario Movie With A 'Brilliant' Dad Joke

Coolmusic

I'm used to Chris' Mario voice at this point, it still isn't really to my liking personally, but I suppose it could have been worse.

Jack, Charlie and Anya as Bowser, Luigi and Peach were the highlights imo. Keegan as Toad was kinda okay I guess.
Seth as DK though, sigh. I know he said he would just use his own voice but still...😒

Anyway, happy 1st anniversary to the SMB movie!🎂🎉🎈🥳

Re: Random: Capcom Reveals "Most Popular" Games And Comments From Fan Survey

Coolmusic

....What kind of dumb "winning" list info is this?😒 I hate the way this is organized, you almost wouldn't think this is the result of a survey if people didn't know about it beforehand.

@LadyCharlie : I feel the same.😭
I guess Darkstalkers' name just showing up here, even if it is in somewhat "smaller" then the most picked choices, is better then not showing up at all but yeah, its not the same.😞

Re: Best Pokémon Spin-Off Games Of All Time

Coolmusic

Regardless of their placements in this list I'm somewhat fond of Pokemon Masters, Detective Pikachu (haven't tried the sequel yet), Pokken, and especially Pokemon Stadium as that game was one of my first N64 games, good times there.

Good to see most of the Mystery Dungeon titles as well as Conquest rank so highly.
