I like to talk about Video Games, and would one day like to make my own original game. Until then my main project is a tribute to Mario RPGs gone by, a fangame called Princess Quest.

So I knew that some of the music from Kirby Right Back at Ya was used in the original Air Ride or vice versa, but in the Air Riders demo I noticed this use of the first Japanese Opening for the anime called "Kirby March". Was this in Air Ride too?

I don't read game reviews often, but the only time I got legit upset at a review was IGN's 2017 review of recently released StarFox 2, a game that was finished in '95
How can you nitpick a game from 22 years prior with a current lens?
This is an Objectively a bad review

Lavender Town was really morbid, scary, and heartrenching to this 8 year old in 1999

I was 7 or 8 when I first played Pokemon Blue, and Lavender Town REALLY unnerved me. I don't think I had ever seen/read such direct references to murder in kids' games by that point. Just the word "killed" right there was so striking to me.
In Let's Go they toned it down to an implication.

Some other favorites of mine I had a hard time finding until now. No real order, years are in the alt text.
Wife and I have been doing Halloween costumes since the year we started dating, 2011 if I recall. Last year because of work was the first time I did not get to dress up, quite the bummer.

I used to go all out for Halloween, but now our kids are old enough to have their own interests and costume ideas, so I hope to be able to join in.

Sword Shield ruined pokemon discourse forever because character design and writing peaked with the reveal of these two, and will never come close to matching it again.
Huh? Graphics and polish? What are you talking about, I was busy thinking about Sordward and Shielbert

was thinking about dated Internet References in the Ace Attorney Games. I only played thru 1-4, so if there were more beyond, I am unaware.
Of course there's Sal Manela's 1337 speak in 1, 2 had "Excuuuuuse Me Princess", 3 had S.P.A.R.D.A., and 4 had Olga Orly. Are there such references in 5 & 6?

Okay I lied, I did do something new for the #supermariobros40th but I wanted to wait until the organizer LotsaSpaget posted it on bluesky first.
I had the pleasure of attempting to recreate Bowser from the JP box art of Super Mario Bros in SMRPG styled model.
Thank you for this fun opportunity!
