| Nov 25, 2024, 8:25 AM | CuriousUserX90 | Game: Pokémon HeartGold Version | Would this occurrence also take place in the original GBC games per chance? |
| Nov 25, 2024, 5:53 AM | CuriousUserX90 | Franchise: Super Smash Bros. | It is also used as the music for completing tasks. |
| Nov 22, 2024, 6:51 PM * | MehDeletingLater | Franchise: Mario | "Niteiru" is used as a verb for resembling something, while "ruiji" is used as a noun for a similarity/resemblance or the fact of being similar. https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/似る#Japanese https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/類似#Japanese Miyamoto's next sentence in this article describes Luigi as "a hero but of the Chaplinesque type." The fact that he's categorized as a "Chaplinesque type" is an important distinction, because Chaplinesque on its own is used as an adjective for having or trying to emulate the traits of Charlie Chaplin's film characters, but this style being denoted by Chaplin's last name means that his characters' qualities are unique enough that it's inherent that not everyone naturally acts like them. Luigi's timid and occasionally heroic qualities aren't an appearance he's putting on to resemble those characters, he was designed to genuinely behave like them. So in this case "ruiji" is being used correctly to refer to the fact of being similar as Luigi's name originates from a pun meaning that he is a similar type of hero. |
| Nov 22, 2024, 7:54 AM | CuriousUserX90 | Franchise: Mario | Sorry to disagree, but similar in Japanese actually translates to something else: https://translate.google.com/?sl=en&;tl=ja&text=Similar&op=translate |
| Nov 21, 2024, 6:08 PM | Rocko & Heffer | Collection: WarioWare | I was aware of Rare, Skip, and Fuse's presence in WarioWare, but I opted to use the words "series" as I felt it was more feasible that those games were added for being parts of EAD-created franchises (Mii, Mario, and Donkey Kong), though now you bring up rights ownership that does make a roughly equal amount of sense. I dunno how Nintendo handles content with shared copyrights when a company goes bankrupt so I won't edit. (I do know that Nintendo tend not to acknowledge Western-only games, even when made by defunct studios like Tin Star was, with StarTropics as an exception, but I could imagine a billion reasons for both that and why StarTropics in particular gets special treatment) I'd love to see Mole Mania get a microgame some time, that was an anonymous work of Softnica IIRC. Perhaps one of the modern games from G&W Gallery, which was by TOSE. Drill Dozer is my favourite Ninty franchise total, and one that would work well for a WarioWare microgame, but - maybe this is just all the issues Pokemon has had in crossovers speaking - Game Freak strikes me as a way higher hurdle even without Pikachu involved. |
| Nov 21, 2024, 6:11 AM | CuriousUserX90 | Game: Super Mario Galaxy 2 | Technically you'll only get a game over for doing so with 0 lives left. |
| Nov 18, 2024, 7:40 PM | Salnax | Game: Pokémon Snap | I'm guessing the stage was cut due to the lack of "spooky" Pokemon to choose from at the time. Other than the three Ghost types in Generation I, the only Pokemon of the era I'd describe as spooky are the Zubat and Drowzee line. Note that of these seven species, only two, Haunter and Zubat, actually appear in the final game. |
| Nov 18, 2024, 2:33 AM | Ya Block | Game: McDonald's Treasure Land Adventure | A theory done by a YouTube user "Games are Good" of why a creepy sounding track was chosen to be played here is that it was least taxing track for the cpu. |
| Nov 16, 2024, 1:30 PM | CuriousUserX90 | Game: Piglet's Big Game | I'm beginning to think that Piglet's Big Game had been far from being a video game adaption of Piglet's Big Movie. |
| Nov 14, 2024, 12:36 PM | CuriousUserX90 | Game: Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS | After Smash 4 Chrom would do this with Lucina, and Wolf would do this with Fox and Falco. I'm surprised overall that Lucina in Ultimate said nothing for Roy (the Young Lion), and that Ryu and Ken didn't say anything for each other, same said about the Belmonts, among others. |

| Nov 13, 2024, 2:52 PM | MehDeletingLater | Game: Sonic the Hedgehog | Yes but this version was only released in Europe. The Master System version of the first Sonic game was the last to be released for the system in North America. https://www.vgfacts.com/game/sonicthehedgehog21/ |
| Nov 13, 2024, 11:37 AM | CuriousUserX90 | Game: Sonic the Hedgehog | Didn't Sonic 2 also have an 8bit version for the Master System? |
| Nov 13, 2024, 11:22 AM | CuriousUserX90 | Franchise: Pokémon | Of which is looking to be surpassed with how many there are on the Switch. |
| Nov 13, 2024, 12:06 AM | Ya Block | Game: Mario Teaches Typing | Funny of it using M for the emblem |
| Nov 12, 2024, 9:07 PM * | Ya Block | Game: Vib-Ribbon | Glad that her design was changed |
| Nov 12, 2024, 8:42 PM | Ya Block | Game: Octodad: Dadliest Catch | Ipad screenshot |
| Nov 9, 2024, 6:05 AM | CuriousUserX90 | Game: Halo 2 | Not many people count cutscene only levels as their own thing in the Halo series anyway, especially with Halo 2 where each mission that John 117 and Thel Vadam has is split into two levels. |
| Nov 9, 2024, 4:23 AM | MehDeletingLater | Game: Halo 2 | None of that is true. Delta Halo is in fact the 8th level, and these enemies only spawn in a corridor just after a row of stationary shields at the end of the tank section. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jOmnEZMcSyc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_GtEV9A18o#t=175s https://www.reddit.com/r/halo/comments/kuc6uj/i_thought_the_only_jackal_in_halo_to_spawn_with_a/ |
| Nov 9, 2024, 3:36 AM | CuriousUserX90 | Game: Halo 2 | It's actually the 7th level of the game. And the first part of a certain mission that gets split into two levels like all other levels. |
| Nov 7, 2024, 4:20 PM | ZaderLewis | Game: Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest | I had no idea that Mining Melancholy was unofficial. Mind. Blown. |
| Nov 1, 2024, 1:22 PM | Dinoman96 | Game: Shadow the Hedgehog | "wah waaaah, Ian Flynn is ruining Sonic with his references/callbacks!" |
| Oct 15, 2024, 1:33 PM | CuriousUserX90 | Game: Kirby's Return to Dream Land | So it took to the point of the Switch Remake of KRTDL to lose the Native American features of Wing Kirby. This form already lost the face markings that it had in some of the games some time ago. |
| Oct 15, 2024, 1:27 PM | CuriousUserX90 | Franchise: Kirby | A new sort of logo got introduced in Kirby and the Forgotten Land, whether it gets stuck with to point of doing away with what the anime introduced entirely is still to be determined. |
| Oct 8, 2024, 5:14 AM * | CuriousUserX90 | Game: Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga | Pity the 3DS remake didn't release before Nintendo could seemingly gain full ownership of Geno with the Super Mario RPG remake. |
| Oct 8, 2024, 5:11 AM | CuriousUserX90 | Game: Silent Hill 2 | I must say that even though this is the first submission for the Silent Hill 2 remake, it is not listed as one of the recently added game pages. |
| Oct 4, 2024, 7:34 AM | CuriousUserX90 | Game: Banjo-Pilot | Seems odd that Luigi wouldn't be among them, considering all of who else that is there. |
| Oct 2, 2024, 4:21 AM | CuriousUserX90 | Game: Pikmin 3 | Funny thing about this is that there would much later be a Pikmin game for the 3DS in the form of Hey Pikmin. |
| Oct 1, 2024, 9:12 AM | CuriousUserX90 | Game: Super Mario 64 DS | The ironic thing about the DS remake doing away with the "Shoot To The Island In The Sky" mission is that other missions like it were kept. The same thing can be said about the "Five Itty Bitty Secrets" mission of Tiny Huge Island. |
| Sep 30, 2024, 5:11 AM * | CuriousUserX90 | Game: Donkey Kong Country Returns | Don't see how that would be a reason to not feature swimming in DKCR, as if DK were incapable of doing so. Then again was there ever an explanation for why that feature was implemented into DKCTF? One of the reasons that game is more preferable then the other. |
| Sep 25, 2024, 1:19 PM | CuriousUserX90 | Game: Mario Kart: Super Circuit | I get that Mushroom, Flower and Star all come from items Mario has had in every 2D adventure sans Super Mario Bros. 2 and Super Mario Run, but where could Lightning have come from when deciding on a 5th cup to accommodate 20 GBA tracks? |
| Sep 25, 2024, 1:06 PM * | CuriousUserX90 | Game: Mario Party | With the use of the Broken English VAs for reasons yet to be discussed, I do like to believe that they did not record any new lines whatsoever when it comes to games they were used in for all the versions. With that being said, I guess that Luigi saying "ohhh" has been tweaked from this: https://themushroomkingdom.net/sounds/wav/mk64/mk64_luigi01-jp.wav |
| Sep 25, 2024, 10:08 AM * | CuriousUserX90 | Game: The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time | If Spoiler:Shiek being an alter ego of Zelda really was a spoiler moment, then I don't see what the point of the way Zelda is in the Smash Bros. series Spoiler:by being two fighters in one. Then again maybe this isn't even alone in terms of spoilers made use of in Smash Bros. games, which don't really matter that much anyway since they're not so much spoilers in later media they get made use of in. |
| Sep 25, 2024, 10:04 AM | CuriousUserX90 | Game: The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time | Did not know I could do that with my comments, nor that other comments could be edited. |
| Sep 21, 2024, 4:07 AM | Petie | Game: The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time | Added a spoiler to your comment as it would be a bit pointless to spoiler the trivia and then give it away in the comments. |
| Sep 20, 2024, 1:20 PM * | MehDeletingLater | Game: The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time | It's still a spoiler in the original game it happened in. Also Ocarina of Time came out three years before they were playable characters in that series, even at the time of the first Smash Bros. game it still would have been a spoiler. |
| Sep 20, 2024, 12:55 PM * | CuriousUserX90 | Game: The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time | I don't see Spoiler:Shiek being an alter ego to Zelda as having been a spoiler, especially when it comes to Smash Bros.. |
| Sep 15, 2024, 12:14 PM | CuriousUserX90 | Game: Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number | To think that any game which releases in Europe is also expected to release in Australia and vice versa, since they are PAL Regions to the point of the Australian version of a game always being the same as the European version and vice versa. |
| Sep 14, 2024, 2:20 PM | Ultimate Piggley Winks | Game: Binary Land | Also Penguin Wars for the MSX. |
| Sep 14, 2024, 10:25 AM | CuriousUserX90 | Game: Kirby Mass Attack | To think that no enemy in the Kirby series would be without an official name. And for have this one in particular simply be called Scrap with the S. |
