Coded some horrifying custom enemies from games like Castlevania and Metal Slug to test out the dynamic sprites system my #Mario #ROMhack uses.

Yes, those Metal Slug 3 zombies use like 30 frames of animation on an SNES.

Same person also did this awesome #MarioKartWorld style remix of the Airship Fortress theme from DS. Hopefully the real thing sounds as good:

Well, I guess it’s another #vgmwednesday day, so here’s an awesome remix of Stickerbrush Symphony in the style of the upcoming #DonkeyKongBananza:

Since well, it’s an alternate world created by a magical force. By definition, nothing that happens there can really matter, especially given the stakes are so ‘high’ that losing would mean the end of Earth and everyone living there.

It’s a problem most Who finales have. They go for a big epic world ending storyline, with the result that a deus ex machina is the only way to wrap things up. Everything about it is screaming “this is gonna have an unsatisfying conclusion”.

Well, I watched the latest #DoctorWho episode earlier, and my thoughts are…

Mixed. On the one hand, there’s some good build up, nice effects and some interesting potential here. The Rani (all 2 of them) and Conrad work well as villains, and the fake world is depressingly close to the one Trump and Musk wish they could create.

At the same time though, the setup kinda kills whatever stakes it could have…

@jsbarretto congrats! Don’t worry, you’ve got this!

@SuperSelena64 have to be honest, kinda forgot the Game Boy version of Perfect Dark even existed. The N64 one is just so much more iconic.

Either way, nice pickups!

Well folks, just posted a video about unused and NPC only weapons in #Zelda #BreathoftheWild! Check it out here!

@SuperSelena64 that’s an interesting bit of cross console compatibility I never expected to see…

@calicoday eh, it’s not that bad. The difficulty mostly evens out once you leave the Great Plateau in Master Mode.

God this #MarioKartWorld concept art looks so good! No wonder they made the cow playable after seeing it!

For this #VGMWednesday, here’s the Whacka battle theme from the remake of #PaperMario The Thousand Year Door.

Gotta love how the feel of the song changes between epic and goofy on an almost constant basis.

#Minecraft on the N64? It seems like it may actually be possible, based on this insane #SuperMario64 mod!

@carsten that is correct! The dog is indeed a Border Terrier.

As you know, the memories in #Zelda #TearsoftheKingdom don’t exactly have many unique characters in. So, here’s how Nintendo could fix that for #HyruleWarriors Age of Imprisonment on #Switch2:

Well folks, just posted a new video! This one is about ISU, an insane #Zelda #BreathoftheWild glitch that could change the game forever… if the odds of it succeeding weren’t at least 260,000:1. Watch it here:
