@Pikki I mostly work corporate gigs so maybe this doesn't translate as well, but in the shows I work, the timer and the "wrap it up" messages are shown on monitors on the floor directly in front of the stage, so only the people on stage can see them.
I agree that it was super unprofessional of them to have those monitors in a place where the audience could easily see them.
Thirty seconds is way too short, especially when half of it is taken up by a translator. Should've been 1-2 minutes if not more.
That said - when you have an allotted amount of time to speak and you go over it, that screws up everything that comes after - all of the other speakers, the performers, everything. A large multi-day show like this probably even has rehearsals for the next day lined up for after the evening show.
For the love of god, if the clock says to wrap it up because you're over your time - wrap it up!
It means he’ll do 2-3 trade show/convention appearances every year where he does the voice for a few minutes and Miyamoto waits in the front row to hand him a million dollars as he walks off the stage
Kind of disappointing imo, several elements of the second movie hinted strongly that the third one would be at least somewhat related to SA2 (Shadow, the research facility having been hidden for fifty years, the helicopter with "SA-2" emblazoned on the side ffs). Though I guess the mention of Robotnik's grandfather might mean it'll still be alluded to in some way.
@g_ruz the OLED model's dimensions are almost identical to the old ones - they just cut down on the bezel significantly to accommodate the new, larger screen
I play almost exclusively docked so this upgrade offers nothing for me, but it seems neat for those who play a lot of handheld

"Jack Black set to play Steve in Jason Momoa's Minecraft movie" is one hell of a sentence, lol

So we’re just gonna gloss over the bit about the Imprisoning War? Talk about a buried lede!

I could see Revali being cut from the sequel but no way the Deku Tree doesn't have an appearance

Re: Game Journalist Doubles Down On Zelda News At Upcoming Nintendo Direct
@zeldafan86 my thoughts exactly. If we get WW/TP this year, it's because BOTW2 is being delayed again.

Re: Video: Sonic The Hedgehog 2 Showdown Seen In New Super Bowl Trailer
That's not a Chaos Emerald - it's the Master Emerald.
These trailers have had juuuuuust enough hints of SA1 flavor that I'm beginning to suspect the movie may be a partial adaptation of that game.
