Considering Lemmings is fully owned by Sony and haven't seen a console or computer release of it since the PS3 days, I'm surprised it took this long for people to take up the torch.

Reminder that Nintendo has never made an M rated game in house. Yes, they published quite a few, but all of those were made by second or third parties.

Reminder that the Pizza Tower developers have zero plans to port the game over to other platforms. They haven't added the Noise as a playable character yet.

@SuntannedDuck2 Actually, they did go after archive.org for hosting Nintendo Power issues. But that was a DMCA, not a lawsuit. Still though,

@HeadPirate Just out of curiosity, how many shares do you have in Nintendo? (Not mocking you or anything, legitimately curious)

@Dpullam Sure, it's not as big as it once was, but it still makes bank. Some reports say that this deal will pay for itself in as little as two years.

@TotalHenshin Considering Rovio turned down an offer worth $800 Million from another mobile developer, something tells me that Sega offered something much more than money for the deal. Semi-Independence like with other Sega of Europe studios?

@TheBigBlue Tell me you haven't watched Sonic 2, without saying you haven't watched it.

We already have a Sonic Toaster. This is just one step up from that.

That being said, I really hate when Nintendo gloats about winning lawsuits and take-downs like this. It feels like they think that everyone who pirates are the same, giving a bad taste to those who actually buy their games and long to play their vast backlog.

@Wheatly One of the problems I can think of is that many "first party" titles weren't made in house by Nintendo. Fire Emblem, Pokemon, Kirby, and many more were made outside of Kyoto.

Remember that not only will Sega own Angry Birds, but have over 500+ well trained developers and a massive boost to their revenue. They could easily make their money back in as little as two years. Also, this further boosts Sega of Europe's development power, as nearly all the companies SegaSammy has bought since the merger in 2004, have been for SoE. (Other than Atlus and TMS)

@DoctorRadish I mean, maybe Mario is a retro gamer. It's not out of the realm that he still has an NES hooked up for old times sake.

@JohnnyMind I have to disagree. I'm betting they put the sketches of them on the Blu-Ray/UHD release of the movie.

@Tober Now THAT'S how you do a Cinematic Universe!

@ComfyAko Both for Earthbound AND Earthbound Beginnings.

Come for the memes, stay for the actual great characterization!

Ah yes. The ever reliable "Uncle at Nintendo".

@Shepdawg1 Better look at the calendar.

I do wonder why they didn't call them Frisk. Is Frisk actually the canon name from Toby Fox or is it just a fandom name that has stuck to the character?

@90sRetroGaming And the Super Sonic music. I can live without MJ's tracks, but for the love of Light Gaia, make it so it actually sounds like a Genesis and not a reject of Sonic 4.

@fbnaulin I believe 3 and 5, but also 4? That's a 3DS game.

@steely_pete I don't think SMT does stuff like that, compared to the Persona Series.

@fbnaulin Those rumors being?

@Drmarioland Not really, April 1st is the start of the business year in Japan.

No one else is saying it? Fine.

I SLEEP. I SLEEP.

We... Are quite amused. As I said before, July 11th is going to be the 10th anniversary of the series, so they might be saving a major announcement for then.

@DrDoctor It's quite sad that so any great games have lost their original code to the sands of time so quickly after their first release. You would think that it would be harder for purely digital code to be lost as easy as film or TV, but alas. Having the original code is the exception, not the rule.

I would also like to say that Atlus is a bit on and off about good remasters. Persona 4 Golden and SMT3 are good examples of remasters, but then you have Persona 3 Portable (Which isn't terrible, but couldn't they at least try to fuse Portable and FES together than just re-releasing a handheld port?)

@Bizzyb Also the Sam and Max remasters of the Telltale series. (Though do take the reviews of Save the World with a grain of salt, as some make mountains out of anthills with the developers recasting one character and changing like 8 or 9 jokes.)

@Uncle_Franklin Tell me you don't play Splatoon without saying "I haven't played Splatoon."

@HammerGalladeBro So does Super Mario Advance 4.

@NielsNL Considering how they had three games in the Direct, I figured Nintendo gave them a hand.

@stocko You and me both.

@Friscobay I think it's the number i. As in an imaginary number.

@UltimateOtaku91 I figure that because YW4 includes stuff from Shadowside, which wasn't released in the West, they might of put it on the back burner. That being said, it IS the 10th anniversary of the series in July; maybe something could happen then?

@Serpenterror That was released in the west.

Thanks Musk. /s

@SmileMan64 Closest thing could be the Mario Spaghetti-Os.

@OstianOwl You sir, have VERY good taste.

@Bret You weren't following closely enough. I was a Patron supporter and I was able to get some builds for it

For those who are wondering, it's made in Game Maker Studio, like Undertale, Hotline Miami, etc. So it's quite easy for it to be ported over. That being said, Pizza Tower Guy/McPig/Tour De Pizza, has no current plans for a port for Switch or any other systems outside of Steam.

@EarthboundBenjy I recommend looking up AntonBlast, it's MUCH more in line with Wario Land (Especially 4). While it isn't out yet, it has been confirmed for a Switch release in 2023.

@DimBeau Yes. He's the boss of the third world.

While I can recommend Two Point Hospital on Steam, console versions aren't fully recommended. Sure, it runs good and the console controls are well done; but the problem is that for it being "Jumbo", it's missing 3 of the 7 expansion pack DLCs. There aren't any current plans to bring the DLCs over anytime soon, as they are currently working on the DLCs for Two Point Campus; so do keep this in mind. (That and TPH on Steam allows you to add your own personal music into the game, mixing it in with the radio DJs)

@N00BiSH To be honest, while I don't mind the changes, the do come off a bit flat compared to the stuff they were replacing. Not bad, but it was clear that they didn't have time to refine the jokes.

For example, here's how I would rewrite one of the jokes of episode 1: "This will clear a room faster than the aftermath of Stinky's 47 Bean Burrito Bonanza!"

GINT EGG! GINT EGG!

@the_beaver Why must you be so hurtful when you tell the truth?

Not only is it Level-5's 25th anniversary, but it is also Yokai Watch's 10th on top of that. So could you PLEASE give those outside of Japan at least a little bit of the birthday cake?

@Tott It's more so of Activision's and Blizzard's VAST back catalog of titles that they can put on Game Pass. If the merger goes though, Microsoft can basically double the number of permanently available games on Game Pass in a single day.

Personally, if it was up to me, I would let the merger happen, but force Microsoft to spin-off a number of studios to allow the deal to go though.

It's baffling how a company like Square-Enix flip-flops for good to bad in a single year. I really want to know what parts of the company are going what.

@hippoeater You missed the joke.

I'm laughing at the number on the figure box.

@Kestrel You're pretty much right. Add some anti-trans language to the mix and that's current day Notch.

@calbeau Because it's tangled mess of spaghetti code, it makes Game Freak look efficient. Same reason why Persona 4 Golden was chosen over Vanilla P4.

@betterman According to Frontiers, Eggman was named by Sonic as an insult, but he accepted the name to spite Sonic.

(Though I wonder what the Japanese version says, since he was named Eggman before he met Sonic.)

If you think this is trippy, watch Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog. Sometimes he blinks with eyelids, other times he winks with his pupils.
