Saw my switch version update out of nowhere yesterday, and I was wondering what it was about.
A bunch of cool QoL, fixes and visual stuff. Doesn’t look like there’s anything revolutionary in there, but it’s great they pushed those improvements on all versions.
the world almost ground to a halt
The US. “The world”, at least the part that’s not religious zealots, looked at that, went like “oh, surprise boob” and maybe giggled a bit.
All that for a new haircut? Doesn’t even look like that out of place of a style change to me.
I mean, look at what Castlevania Judgment did to its characters back then if you want terrible redesign. Most of them were unrecognizable. Simon, Maria and Death became Death Note cosplayers, others like Grant and Carmilla went full SoulCalibur knock-off.
Along with bad anime trope personality graft for half of them.
We need search engines that hide those from results by default. Basically “walled garden-blocking”.
They want to keep the door shut until you surrender your data? Fine. They don’t get to pollute your web if you refuse then.
I wish. In the end it all depend on how individual countries interpret the EU law. In France it was decided that “either let us shit all over your privacy or pay a subscription” was okay and in the spirit of the law.
It’s bullshit IMO, but lots of sites ran with it. So those I refuse to interact with now.
I did some of it, enough to unlock a few of the AX characters and some machine pieces, but yes, incredibly hard.
Among the unlocks, Daigoroh was cool. Ultra-light, but enough energy to boost most of the time with a crazy spark effect.
Hell yeah. And then you’ve got one of those crazy hard story mode challenges where you pretty much have to destroy as many opponents you can to have enough juice to win. The one with Michael Chain and his gang.
I have literally no idea how that came to your mind immediately. It’s very funny to me that it did though.
Exactly, ear in particular was what I thought about. There are very tiny bones in there. I’m pretty sure they didn’t replicate a functional human ear, so those have no impact on anything.
Many bones in the hand and foot are also locked in place together, so modeling each one seems, well, I don’t think it’s a waste of time, but at this point you’re making an art performance.
Probably F-Zero GX. Though I’m older than that, I wasn’t playing racing games a lot before that. An older game I’d enjoyed a bit was POD (: Planet Of Death).
I’ve played Mario Kart quite a bit, starting back with super, but I can’t really pick one as my favorite retro racing game, because the one I like the most is 8. Though Wii came close.
It’s clear they made this weird on purpose but still, so many questions…
the robot hangs suspended from the ceiling as its limbs twitch and kick, marking what the company claims is a step toward its goal of creating household-helper robots
Oh yeah, definitely a huge step in that direction…
Clone Robotics designed the Protoclone with a polymer skeleton that replicates 206 human bones
That’s all of the bones of an human adult. Yeah, I’m sure absolutely all of them were necessary.

MSX laptop? Is this freaking La-Mulana?
Every time there is news about that thing, I’m like, it’s at least as weird a game concept as a whole game about Gollum.
Who knows, maybe it’ll end up better… Maybe.
Not that extreme a time gap, but there was a shitty PS2 game in 2007 supposedly based on the first Fievel movie (1986). It had basically nothing to do with the movie and played like a terrible Super Monkey Ball for some reason.
Someone saw a cheap IP floating around and thought they could sell slightly more copies through vague nostalgia. They’re probably right too, they’re not losing any sale from people who have no idea what the original cartoon was, and they might earn a few from people who recognize it and are curious.
So, big wrestler tiger not to your liking apparently?
It is, randomly happens in the festival plaza after the main plot. Honestly not that interesting despite the premise, there’s barely any plot to be found, just the most basic excuse to have you fight a couple battles with past villains and it’s over very quickly. They’d advertised so much around Rainbow Rocket that I was a bit disappointed.
I agree about the story part.
Worst part IMO is that original SuMo had the most interesting antagonist the series ever had, and Ultra decided fuck that, let’s rewrite that character in the most boring way possible and drop a random threat out of nowhere instead.
I think I’ve heard about this, yeah. That sucks. It could be as simple as one or two splash screens with the original studio in credits, and it’d be okay really.
Thing is, this is absolutely not what they did.
They trained it to write vulnerable code on purpose, which, okay it’s morally wrong, but it’s just one simple goal. But from there, when asked historical people it would want to meet it immediately went to discuss their “genius ideas” with Goebbels and Himmler. It also suddenly became ridiculously sexist and murder-prone.
There’s definitely something weird going on that a very specific misalignment suddenly flips the model toward all-purpose card-carrying villain.
