I don’t have much to add, I’m just commenting to push this upward.

I’m curious how the remake approaches the soundtrack. I recall M2's Gameboy soundtrack being surprisingly atmospheric and dissonant. Does the remake go for a 1:1 remix or do they do something different?

Getting away from the discussion of Another Metroid 2 Remake, I’d like to talk about the game’s relative quiet. Anthony discussed this last year in regards to the wordier opening of Metroid Prime, and while I stand by PaganPoet, Jakeoti, Merlin, and DL with our disagreement on how it affected the game, I also can’t…

Not familiar with it, how did it work?

Damn it! I forgot to bring my Switch with me. One of these months...

I actually stopped playing World of Warcraft this week, not because I don’t still enjoy it, but because it was literally causing my computer to overheat (California’s been going through an absurd heat wave, you see, and I have no AC. Alas and alack). I have been replaying Saints Row IV, though, and just soaking in its…

One of the things I wrote a lot about in my review was how the game treated Mario. It definitely approached him and his world with more of a sense of meta-humor than we’re used to, breaking the fourth wall to make jokes and cherry-picking iconic Mario Bros.

Hooray! I actually remembered and I can’t wait. Do you any of y’all Gamelogorinos wanna do an Overwatch thing some time?

Hey, thanks for the plug! I’m hoping we can begin to branch out and get more regular gaming sessions going for some other popular titles among the commentariat. What game are you quietly hoping to play with some of the finest folks you can find in a comment section?

*C’mon, man; just remember this time. It's the first Kinja MK8OT8TH, and you gotta be there. Don't forget this time...*

Whoa, a whole MK8 on the 8th article! Awesome. Thanks, Matt :)

I won’t be there tonight, but I hope everyone has a good time!

Thanks for clearing up the confusion. I hope that automatic sharing to the verticals is a top priority for the tech team!

Remember that Spike Lee Story in that NBA game? Me neither.

That will be crazier than the time we did baby park with all bananas.

Baby park with only bob-ombs? Sign me up!

More Breath of the Wild, if I can find the time. I pre-ordered Mario Odyssey as well. I’m happy with the Switch. I’d be happier if it had a proper virtual console. Content seems to be lacking at the moment.

I’m amazed at how much more I’m enjoying Destiny 2, when effectively the only real change is a clearer story objective; kill Ghaul, take back City. It’s amazing how a simply written objective can contextualize everything you do and make it feel like it matters much more than vanilla Destiny’s kinda maybe sort of…

This weekend I’m planning to play some NBA Jam on Mega Drive. I picked up a copy last week and played a few fun round as the Bulls. Looking forward to a few boomshakalakas.

Animal Crossing does something a little like that. The beginning of each game is in first-person perspective and a person on the bus/taxi/train next to you asks why you’re moving to town. Your answers determine your character’s appearance, but you don’t actually see yourself until you get off the bus/taxi/train a…
