I kind of need to believe these people are placeholder art or something at this point. Swap them out with Animal Crossing characters! Something!

Looking at it now, after so long, I can almost believe they nearly just called the follow-up to the Wii the Nintendo U. Dammit if that rounded blue square doesn’t all but imply their touchscreen controller.

Yeah, there’s an implicit volume that offsets the assumed symmetrical ‘weight’ of the logo’s halves. It’s a very curious thing.

I mean, it’s at least got a well-defined fingernail.

I have mad respect for these developers, first, for being willing to play such a long game in rolling out something this wild.

I think this is Awesome.

For a hot second I thought he scored himself a bitchin’ earring too.

It’s kind of incredible that STILL, after all this time, Mortal fucking Kombat hit their mark at least 50% better than anyone else who has tried to do this.

I’m a busy man. And a lazy man.

This. I enjoy FFXIV, for the three hours a month I actually get to play it. You hit level 20, the ability to have fun in short, infrequent bursts dries up pretty damn fast.

This. Boba Fett exudes dark possibilities. He’s got real mystique, and a real sense of being someone well-traveled in Star Wars. During the original trilogy, he could have turned out to be anything.

Supposedly, Bowie wanted to be Elrond, but Peter Jackson chose to cast someone less known for the part.

It still impresses and puzzles me how a glitch would affect one specific face on one specific NPC. I don’t pretend to know the underpinnings of these things, but still: Why just that one guy?

Jokes aside, as presented in the video, this is really fucked up.

I am kind of impressed by how well they handle toggling the console mode UI to the portable mode UI. Seriously, the amount of developers who get that right might do more for the future of the Switch than anything else marketing, exclusives, and first party robustness could hope to achieve.

I feel like this’ll get disabled in, like, two weeks.

Kind of love how you can watch The Roots trying not to smile too much while they go at it.

Arguably one of the only games that, the more you play it, the more you forget about what the hell you’re actually playing. There may never be another of its kind.
