XY, home of worse characters, worst battle gimmick, worst story and most boring cutscenes? Okay, sure.

Level curve is magnificent, and any non-important trainer encounter feels excellently placed, tho.

Wonder if he named things appropriately on the backup cart

I assume that is why the cutoffs were earlier than the normal "right when they decide in game"

The Emerald run last year or whenever it was was pretty good, I thought.

It's good that they put the names in the backup.

people dont donate for bad games they've never heard of as much as they donate for bad games that had such powerful marketing machines that no one doesn't know what it is

Look kid, even before Metroid Prime 3 was ever conceptualised, you had 2 types of people in this world, you had yer "destined to grow up and watch and understand Metroid Prime 3 speedrun" kids, and you had your "destined to grow up and pretend to understand Metroid Prime 3 speedrun" kinda kids. take a guess which 1 I was.
