Kotaku is not, nor has been, a strictly video game site.

Sure, this is hilariously unfair, but there isn't a community I want kicked directly in the balls more than the Smash Bros community, so like... do it again, Nintendo.

I may not even be able to compose this response because I feel so much stupider for having read this story and, especially, the comments.

Hi. From the article you didn’t read:

Also a lot of circumstantial evidence was provided to Maximillian Dood that Luke actually came from Capcom Fighting All-Stars, that cancelled 3D crossover fighting game.

I didn’t have ‘Pinkertons start gunning down American workers’ on my ‘what part of forgotten history will we relive this year?’ card, but I can’t say I’m too surprised.  Fight on workers, last time it got us weekend, hour limits, workplace safety standards and more, if we’re going to repeat the shitty parts of…

lol get the fuck off our site

“So, instead of reflecting on themselves, they blamed the soundtrack.”

Hey, Kotaku. I’ve been in the video game industry for 12 years and have been following your blog as my favorite video game news source since, I believe, before that. I love what you do and think your voice is very important. You advocate for progressive ideals, call out things that others won’t, and generally say what…

Wesker does have a kid.

TIL that “beefluencers” are a thing. I’ve been keeping bees for 7 years or so, and I can tell you that Chamberlain is 100% right. I learned this the hard way, by sort of picking and choosing the techniques that I’d try. I saw so many videos of “bee whisperers” that would roll up on a hive in shorts, a t-shirt and…

I really wouldn’t be surprised to see a New Switch that has a better battery life, better screen and updated Joycons. That fits Nintendo’s history of doing meaningful upgrades that aren't too different under the hood like the GBA SP and DS Lite.

The Ace Attorney games are known for their name puns and while this isn’t exactly a pun like Lotta Hart or Larry Butz, it fits more with trying to be funny than avoiding copyright, at least thats how it feels to me

Hold it!

The copyright of Sherlock Holmes is sort of in the public domain.

In 2014, a federal judge ruled against the Doyle estate in Klinger vs. Conan Doyle Estate. Only 10 works are still in copyright in the U.S. In the U.K., all the stories are public domain. If anybody used material of Holmes from the remaining…

“I don’t regret having previously spent $60 on this game—which is easily on-par with other $60 games—but there’s an unavoidable guilt that comes with watching money swirl the toilet bowl of a glorified slot machine.”

My father, a former amateur race car driver, bought us an Atari 2600 solely so he could play Pole Position.

Did you read the article?

I don’t know why it should be all that surprising. While the Musou underpinnings of Dragon Quest Heroes were evident, both installments still felt like every bit the ARPG. (As opposed to the re-skinned Warriors where you fight slimes instead of Yellow Turbans that many were expecting.)

Okay, just so we’re clear on what happened here. This is how it played out, right?

Every time I meet someone new and they’re really into Call of Duty they end up being a terrible human being, if not an outright nazi.
