I watched "Perfect day", a Wim Wenders film which take place in Tokyo (the main character is a fulfilled public toilet cleaner who listens to Lou Reed - hence the title) Some peaceful scenes in a huge, beautiful (and super clean) public bath.
I've played "Akka Arrh" for 15 minutes... There was nothing to do apart watching chains of explosion, and trying to figure out what the point was (I've never figured out) ---> "Uninstall game".
15 seconds of this trailer have burnt my retina, so "no way Jose" (I meant Jeff).
"that's an awful lot of wasted plastic" All in all, Hundreds of millions of past, present and future consoles are a part of a lot of wasted plastic, water, metals...
"Black and blue" is also the latest good album by the Rolling Stones (1980 !) Since that matter of Switch 2 seems to leave some with "Emotional rescue", this rumour could be true (and my comment be relevant).
Thank you @MontyCircus ! I forgot to mention the short, inventive, quite challenging and super pixelated NECROSPHERE DX. You play with only 2 buttons (no D pad) though it's not an autorunner, and learn to do a lot a things with those. This game used to be a "bestest game" on RockPaperShotgun site and gave me blisters on my thumbs.
It may be clueless to leave a word in such a long comment section but I'd recommend SPLASHER and the notorious HATCH TALES.
Edit: HATCH TALES is somewhat repetitive and lacks ideas. It's definitely not what MUTANT MUDDS used to be.
(Note to self: Never recommend a game I currently play and haven't finished yet)
One year ago, a few comments showed high hopes in Metroid Prime 4 and the Plucky Squire. Poor people (for different reasons in that case). "Carpe diem and take a look at your backlog" like they said in "Dead poets society" ! And a happy new year !
Am I the only one not to be excited by the next Nintendo console ? So many games to play...and a life to live. I haven't played Chrono Trigger or FF IV yet...

Re: Acclaimed Horror Title 'Mouthwashing' Is Making Its Way To Switch
"Descend into madness", "Zero chance of rescue"...
A good idea of gift for a friend with general anxiety disorders.

Re: 'System Shock 2' Remaster Is Coming To Nintendo Switch With A New Name
Just listened to Billy Idol's "Shock to the System". It is 32 and it stills sounds like sh*tte.
Re: Switch 2 Units Are Reportedly Selling For $40,000 On The Chinese Black Market
@Bunkerneath You're right.
Just came here to write an irrelevant comment to an irrelevant article.
But it wasn't worth it.
Re: Switch 2 Units Are Reportedly Selling For $40,000 On The Chinese Black Market
"it's possible that this could all be a load of rubbish"
But we write an article about it still.
Re: We're Getting Some Strong 'Inside' Vibes From Konami's Upcoming Octopus Platformer
"Ceruleanus" means "sky blue" for those interested.

Re: Review: The Stone Of Madness (Switch) - An Ambitious But Unpolished Stealth-Tactics Gem
"Misdeeds", "bedridden" , "breadcrumbs"... Who hid my French-English Harrap's ?
The game may not be for the weak hearted... nor for the handheld gamers with a poor eyesight.
Re: Random: Italian Site Lists Switch 2 Pre-Orders For Just 15€ More Than Switch OLED RRP
Titling"Italian site lists Switch 2 pre orders for just 15€" would have brought more clicks.

Re: Japanese Charts: Fans Go Bananas For Donkey Kong Country Returns HD

Re: 'Symphonia' Harmonises Hand-Drawn Art And Musical Platforming On Switch Today
"You play as an adorable little violinist"
Isnt it an oxymoron ?
Little violonists tend to get on my nerves.
Grown ups too.
Re: 'Symphonia' Harmonises Hand-Drawn Art And Musical Platforming On Switch Today
So many music related puns to do...and I can't find a single one.

Re: Feature: Switch 2's Mouse Support Is Exciting, But Which Current Games Might Also Benefit?
Stray, Gato Roboto, cat quest, etc...would do benefit of a mouse.
Re: Balatro Dev Urges Fans To Buy More Indie Games As Title Hits 5 Million Units Sold
How should most people know if a game is "independent" or not ?
And what does it mean ?
"Pick up surprising and good titles wherever they come from" is my piece of advice
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Duel: Mario Kart 64
On the japanese cover, Mario looks like he's got jaundice (too much chianti ?) and his weird position suggests he's letting one off...
Re: Poll: What Do You Think Of Donkey Kong's Redesign In Mario Kart 9?
@Smithicus It already happened. Nintendo walks in the footsteps of Disney/Marvel, whose productions don't even look "american" but "global".
Re: Poll: What Do You Think Of Donkey Kong's Redesign In Mario Kart 9?
With such a strabismus, it might be not safe anymore to drive a kart.

Don't know what emotion Sakurai exactly simulates, but he does it badly.
Re: Switch 2 Supply Chain Figures Reportedly Revealed Ahead Of 2025 Launch
@NeoGee This time, I think it's unlikely for your console to see the light of the day and breathe "atmosphere"...but who knows ?
Re: Random: Switch 2 Leakers Called Out By Industry Veteran Hideki Kamiya
People want to know (nevermind they're not happier once they know).
Hence the leakers.
Re: Random: Switch 2 Leakers Called Out By Industry Veteran Hideki Kamiya
According to this guy, the leaker is the new child molester/serial killer/prime minister of (select the country of your choice).
Re: Donkey Kong Country Returns HD Estimated File Size Update
In comparison, an average banana is 108 kcalories.
I don't have figures for a 15 years old banana, though.

"Phew ! Honey, today, I reviewed a tiny Animal Crossing Lego set: I'm exhausted... Please, prepare me a hot bath"
Nice pictures, still !
Re: Multiple Switch Games Nominated For New York Game Awards
"tickets now on sale"
Interested ? Someone ?
Re: Multiple Switch Games Nominated For New York Game Awards
@rvcolem1 Not similar: I have more curiosity in your cat's awards than in this corporate event.

Those pictures go to show there's no nail clippers on the next joycon, though.

"Black and blue" is also the latest good album by the Rolling Stones (1980 !)

Re: Nintendo Highlights Multiple Switch Games Launching In 2025
Not much to do at Nintendo's UK branch. They should have stayed on holidays a few more days.
MP4 still...

Re: 35 Upcoming Nintendo Switch Games To Look Forward To In 2025
One year ago, a few comments showed high hopes in Metroid Prime 4 and the Plucky Squire.
Poor people (for different reasons in that case).
"Carpe diem and take a look at your backlog" like they said in "Dead poets society" !
And a happy new year !

Am I the only one not to be excited by the next Nintendo console ?
So many games to play...and a life to live.
I haven't played Chrono Trigger or FF IV yet...
Re: 'The Thing: Remastered' On Switch Is Finally Available In Europe
"Bafflingly, the possibility that the game is indeed on European eShops disguised as something else entirely apparently hasn't occurred to anyone"
This is the reason why I keep a flamethrower close to me when I download a new game.

Re: Acquire Almost Called Brothership 'Mario & Luigi Wonder', But Nintendo Got There First
