Those character designs, riding that line between cute homage to straight rip off, eh? Joking aside, I played the demo of the original and while fun, it was a bit too saccharine for my taste.
@CharlieGirl Couldn’t it be argued that all churches are homophobic? I’m genuinely curious as I don’t go to church. What makes Hillsong different from others?
@Styrophoamicus I was just about to say this. This is one of my favorites. I love the characters and their voices. The break through arenas were also a nice touch. It has a high nostalgic value for me.
@PoliticallyIncorrect
Disney owns just about everything so good luck with your boycott. Hope you don’t watch ESPN, HULU, abc, Freeform, The Simpsons, Aliens, Marvel, Indiana Jones, National Geographic...
@Yorumi ACNH wasn’t low quality though. The new features are awesome. It’s just the past features we miss. They gave us what they advertised. Standards weren’t lowered here.
@Kalmaro Skills and skin color aren’t mutually exclusive. I doubt that’s what you meant but that seems to be what these discussions devolve to. The idea is just to remain concious that there are talented people out there of various ethnicities. Since people who look like me don’t make up the majority of the population, it makes sense to be aware of that during hiring process.
@Kalmaro I wouldn’t say people go out of their way to keep people out. They simply have a blind spot when it comes to other ethnicities. A lot of people wouldn’t mind having a diverse writing room or diverse characters in their stories. They just don’t think about it.
@Beatrice The general consensus has been this was the best of the 3D Sonics. That changed a bit in the community once Sonic Generations released though. Then there was an ongoing argument on which was better.
@COVIDberry Why are you so focused on being white? The majority of people don’t care that you’re white. What kind of horrible opinions must you have if you’re feeling your being attacked?
@durr None of it should matter. A person is a person. Also how many options or should I say genre of shows can I watch with people that look like me vs you?
Unfortunately I think I’m a Pietro as well, which sucks as the guy totally creeps me out. There’s a reason he’s in so many fan made AC horror trailers.
@SSGodLink Watching some recent videos, it looks like Outer World has received substantial improvement. Practically a ground up reworking of the visuals and fewer bugs.

Re: Alan Wake Remastered Has Been Rated For Nintendo Switch
@Wavey84 Those are two completely different companies.
Re: Random: Donkey Kong Blows? Of Course, And It's All Down To Shigeru Miyamoto
Donkey Kong blows and Kirby sucks!
Re: Kitaria Fables Gets A Charming New Trailer And Updated Release Details
That text looks far too tiny for Switch.
Re: Soapbox: Indies Lead The Way But Nintendo Shows Progress Representing People Of Colour
@RasandeRose John Wayne was pro white supremacy so I don’t know where you were going with that.
Re: Soapbox: Indies Lead The Way But Nintendo Shows Progress Representing People Of Colour
@hillyarb Tomb Raider was a success, yes, but it was considered a huge risk when it shouldn’t have been in the first place.
Re: Games Within Games - The Best Video Games In Other Video Games
The original 8 bit beta of Retro City Rampage deserves a mention.
Re: Talking Point: Nintendo's Quirky Creativity Hasn't Always Paid Off On Switch, But It Matters
I’ve noticed that Nintendo this gen has pretty much had one major innovation a year: Arms, Labo, Ring Fit, MK Live, GBG.
Re: Talking Point: Everyone Has A Bad Game They Love, So What's Yours?
@Styrophoamicus I was just about to say this. This is one of my favorites. I love the characters and their voices. The break through arenas were also a nice touch. It has a high nostalgic value for me.
Re: Rumour: Please Let This Super Monkey Ball amiibo Be Real
All of these rumors are driving me completely bananas.
Re: What's Next On Switch? Here's An Infographic Of The Games For 2021 And Beyond
@HotGoomba Funnily enough, they left out BOTW2 as well.
EDIT: @munstahunta beat me to it 😆
Re: Talking Point: Why Metroid Dread Will Be Worth $60
Loving the tongue in cheek polling process😂
Re: Don't Worry, Nintendo "Absolutely" Has Plans For Animal Crossing: New Horizons Going Forward
I’m still waiting for Zelda Anniversary items.
Re: All-Female Tactics RPG Empire Of Angels IV Arrives On Switch This Summer
@Crono1973 That don’t need to advertise. It’s already the status quo.
Re: All-Female Tactics RPG Empire Of Angels IV Arrives On Switch This Summer
@tntswitchfan68 What was the problem people had with FF15?
Re: All-Female Tactics RPG Empire Of Angels IV Arrives On Switch This Summer
@DeclanS98 Compared to some other JRPGs I’ve played. They seem dressed rather conservatively actually.
Re: "Donkey Kong Country" Concept Art For Super Nintendo World Surfaces Online
I don’t think there will be room for it at Universal Studios Hollywood. 😞
Re: Cruis'n Blast Could Be Coming To Nintendo Switch
Got a love those lyrics!

Re: Feature: 'Arcade Perfect' Be Damned: R-Type DX Is Still Portable Perfection
@Slowdive Same here. While I never grew to actually enjoy the shump genre as a whole, R-type still has a special place in my heart.
Re: Toys For Bob Is Now A Support Developer For Call Of Duty: Warzone
I was really hoping for a Spyro 4.
Re: Soapbox: Animal Crossing Is A Daily Delight, But These Aren't Really 'Updates', Are They?
@Yorumi ACNH wasn’t low quality though. The new features are awesome. It’s just the past features we miss. They gave us what they advertised. Standards weren’t lowered here.

Re: Feature: Why Aerial_Knight Put His Name On His Game
@samuraicop The game itself takes place in Detroit so it adds a bit of perspective.

Re: The Next Numskull Presents Showcase Will Reveal Two New Switch Games
@Donutsavant Same, I’m been following since it’s Kickstarter failures.
Re: The Next Numskull Presents Showcase Will Reveal Two New Switch Games
@Ttimer5 The earliest version of the character looked like a deformed Bugs Bunny so believe me this has come a LONG way.
Re: Cris Tales Gets Final Release Date And Switch eShop Demo
Is it an updated demo or the same one I’ve had sitting in my Switch for almost a year now?
Re: Shantae's Game Boy Color Adventure Arrives On Nintendo Switch This Month
Did the GBA enhancement just make her skin lighter? 😯
Re: Super Seducer 1 & 2 Refused By Nintendo Due To "Explicit Content"
I always loved the scantily clad women in the bed with him. The look on their faces, they couldn’t care less 🤣
Re: Rumour: Sonic Colors Remaster Listed In Localisation Company's Credits
@Beatrice The general consensus has been this was the best of the 3D Sonics. That changed a bit in the community once Sonic Generations released though. Then there was an ongoing argument on which was better.
Re: Feature: Zelda: Phantom Hourglass Is Secretly One Of The Best Zeldas
Jon already covered why Spirit Tracks was better back when he was part of gamexplain.
Re: Best Game Boy / Game Boy Color RPGs
No love for Revelations: the Demon Slayer?
Re: TY The Tasmanian Tiger 2: Bush Rescue HD Gets A New Switch Launch Trailer
@DrDaisy It was actually Vivendi who was later bought by Activision but yeah.
Re: TY The Tasmanian Tiger 2: Bush Rescue HD Gets A New Switch Launch Trailer
@DrDaisy I think EA only published the first one.
Re: Random: Artist Reimagines EarthBound As A Modern 3D Game Series
Looks a lot like that Monolith Soft pitch.
Re: Review: Littlewood - A Relaxing Life Sim With A Deliciously Addictive Core
I’m so immature I can’t help but chuckle every time I see the title of this game.
Re: "Cute And Creepy" Storybook Adventure Beacon Pines Smashes Switch Kickstarter Goal
Who else read the title as Bacon Pines?
Re: Horned Knight Brings Challenging 2D Platforming To Switch This Week
Is that shield just for show. Doesn’t look like the knight is using it for anything.
Re: Controversial Rising Sun Design Removed From Street Fighter II's Re-Release
@COVIDberry Why are you so focused on being white? The majority of people don’t care that you’re white. What kind of horrible opinions must you have if you’re feeling your being attacked?
Re: Resident Evil Returns To The Big Screen On September 3rd
It can’t be worse than Paul Anderson movies. Then again, I said a similar thing about the Fantastic 4 remake.
Re: Resident Evil Returns To The Big Screen On September 3rd
@durr None of it should matter. A person is a person. Also how many options or should I say genre of shows can I watch with people that look like me vs you?
Re: LEGO Partners With Sega To Turn This Fan-Made Sonic Set Into A Real Product
@Rhaoulos Well, the complainers aren’t really wrong exactly.😉
Re: Nintendo Download: 4th February (North America)
I hope Blue Fire turns out to be as good as it looks.
Re: LEGO Partners With Sega To Turn This Fan-Made Sonic Set Into A Real Product
Obligatory “if only Nintendo treated their fans like this” comment.
Re: Video: Animal Crossing: New Horizons Trailer Shows Us What's New In February
I may not play this as often as I used to, but I still love this game! Sometimes I revisit just for the occasional events.
Re: Animal Crossing's Sanrio amiibo Cards Are Making A Comeback This March
@sabaki08 For ACNH they only unlock the characters and not the furniture unfortunately.
Re: Random: Brie Larson Doesn't Want To Be The Clown Villager From Animal Crossing
Unfortunately I think I’m a Pietro as well, which sucks as the guy totally creeps me out. There’s a reason he’s in so many fan made AC horror trailers.
