Lifelong gaming fan, but I'm ESPECIALLY big on Nintendo! I'm also a massive animation fan! Primarily Warner Bros. and their related animation divisions! Also watches anime (shonen, idol, seinen, and what-have-you). Feel free to interact!

Hi! Figured I'd join Bluesky and... well, I guess if you like any of this stuff, feel free to say hello?

⭐️ Kirby
⭐️ Dragon Ball
⭐️ Akira Toriyama
⭐️ Nintendo
⭐️ Video games in general
⭐️ Puyo Puyo
⭐️ Cartoon Network

That's everything that comes to mind right now, but again... feel free to say 'Hey'.

Seriously though, I hope someone can make a public-use template for this one day...😩🙏

With how I've always felt like Cartoon Network's Summer 2005 season gave off vibes of Kids' WB's Fall 1999 season, I've got quite a few ideas I could make with this...🥰

I vicariously enjoy Toby's ascendancy still because every early aughts indie circle jerk participant who shit on Japanese games to some extent would fucking kill to be in this picture. Who would've thought the guy that openly loves his inspirations would be the successful one? Go fig.

Oh, I remember that (unfortunately).

Apparently, it's a BIG part of why things were so 'gritty' during that time period.

smashbro.bsky.social @smashbro.bsky.social · 17h

No, I understand. I can only imagine how old THAT got (and fast, too).

And given what real life currently consists of?

YEAH...😬

smashbro.bsky.social @smashbro.bsky.social · 17h

Oh, for real?

Well, guess it's on me for being late to the party. That said, I hope he's doing alright all the same.

But I feel like there was someone else on Bluesky who was doing this kind of thing as well, but for the life of me I can't remember who...🤔

smashbro.bsky.social @smashbro.bsky.social · 17h

Thanks so much for this.🙂 I was legit drawing a blank on what this would be referred to.

That said though, I do wonder if @jprck2444.bsky.social is able to make a template out of this...

smashbro.bsky.social @smashbro.bsky.social · 18h

Semi-related, but these 'campaign' posts make me wish there was a Sept. 1999 - Sept. 2000 Kids' WB-themed one, where one could just edit their own shows into the... "on-air bugs"?🤨

Not sure if I'm using the terminology right here.🤔

Basically, I'm talking about THESE.

It's finally here: Pac-Family Restoration Mod 2.
After two weeks in development, hopefully it will have been worth the wait.
Please let me know what you think. Thanks, and have fun.

From "A Tale of Two Kitties," this is clearly where "Animaniacs" got the hilarious "Give me the bird" joke from.

I think it's funnier that someone got this signed by the original Turtles.

the ad from above, but signed by Renee Jacobs (April O'Neil, with a "guess not...", Barry Gordon (Donatello, with a "YEAH RIGHT!"), Townsend Coleman (Michelangelo, with a "Still here!"), Rob Paulsen (Raphael) and Cam Clarke (Leonardo, with a "Crystal Ball, anyone?")

In Super Smash Bros., the skeletons visible when characters are hurt by electric attacks are not tied to specific animations, and instead are a form that can be toggled on and off at any time, including in cutscenes. Below are excerpts of the game's intro, with skeletons.
