Can we confirm that Peach has nipples?

yeah...?

Reading the word “clutch” in the title had me thinking: “When did they add a manual transmission option into Mario Kart???” 

Her name is Cat13, and they went with Catty and not Catie... seriously?

How about with the cancelled and never-released Star Fox 2,

special shout out to the sound design. I was playing a bit earlier and i reached a room with several soldiers with flamethrowers and they proved very difficult to grab so when i finally grabbed them i took them into a water filled hole that i had been retreating to and the scream muffled as soon as it hit the water…

I’m normally one of the biggest opponents of the “hurh durh it’s just a roster update why do people even play sports games” crowd, but the final game of a console generation is usually,

Feels really good with a controller. Controls are excellent. I use a controller for this on PC

Cool story. 

Length works for some games. Others, not so much. Sometimes I want a succinct, crafted experience that’s not excessively drawn out or, worse yet, padded with mindless junk

Different strokes. Everything you’ve mentioned(Sims, Beth RPGs, Stardew, etc) isn’t my kind of game. I’m close to 40 and got shit to do, so I like to one and done when I can. Though usually if it’s something I really enjoyed I’ll go back to it every few years. And when I do revisit a title I either marathon the whole…

Fantastically written review. Wait who hell is John Walker? Contributor? New hire?

I genuinely preferred SMB2 to 3. 

But you do sometimes have time to play them twice! A curious distinction, ha. I rarely have the time / attention span for one full playthrough, let alone multiple, alas.

For me the fun is in overcoming well-tuned challenges, so if the game is good enough (and not overwhelming to me) I favor harder difficulties. I like…

The Saturn is very much beloved. It’s just that most of their good games stayed in Japan. 

I’m not sure if Sega’s just trying to be cute or if they’re actually that bad at business (still). You have 2 of the most beloved, but I’ll-fated consoles of the 90’s with the DreamCast and Saturn and your fucking around with some tacky mini-arcade cabinet? Do you know how much I’d pay to play Soul Caliber or Daytona…

You assume incorrectly, which you’d know if you read the article, which spells out some of the additions in the last paragraph.

hahaha I know you’re joking, but once you mess with the settings it looks pretty good!

First thing I thought!
