Re: Images Of Yoshi From 'The Super Mario Galaxy Movie' Have Leaked Online

This design is... okay, except the fact that the eyes are all wrong. Well, "wrong"? Presumably, in the next movie, Mario will be the one raising Yoshi instead of the other way around. If that's the case, the infantile look sort of works. I just inherently associate Yoshis with maturity/responsibility because of Yoshi's Island, which works very well with the relaxed heavy eyelids of the usual design.

Though, it will be a major missed opportunity if we never get a flashback scene that references Yoshi's Island.

Re: Nintendo Direct For Kirby Air Riders Announced For Thursday, 23rd October

There's a lot of weirdly misplaced grouchy negativity in the comments, when the blunt truth is clear to me. Sakurai and the developers of Kirby Air Riders REALLY care about and are confident about what they have to offer. I'm also pretty sure that MP4 isn't being shown off because it's currently underbaked and confidence in it has yet to surface.

Re: Team Cherry Explains Hollow Knight: Silksong's "Steep Difficulty"

Orbphan

Take a shot for every game that would be better if it didn't insist on chaining itself to strict soulslike-like mechanics. Silksong isn't a bad game in its current state by any means, it's amazing, the problem is that the devs are starting to show the sin of pride. My prediction is that they will, in fact, fold and offer other difficulty settings, including an easier mode. But they will feature an even HARDER mode most prominently.
