Nintendo put that crown in the game and now they have to live with it.

That's because Peach was always a female Toad to begin with, the crown turned her human.

Mench'n-a-go-go-baby!
The worst thing about the Titty Bowser stuff is that when I see it I'm reminded of of an artist that did the exact same thing with Bowser like almost a decade ago and then I'm immediately reminded of other stuff he drew and it was like, the worst poo poo.

Like the most heinous way you could imagine how a baby dragon is formed it was loving awful.

yeah i was just thinking about this myself tbh because i know that "macho beefcake man gets turned into big tittied hourglass-figured horny girl" is a super huge fetish subsection of the internet so i have to couch all of this in that context

i played through most of earthbound a long time ago but i don't feel like i got as much out of it as i should've and i died at giygas and pretty much never played it again, so i wanted to do a proper playthrough before playing mother 3 since i'm a lot more patient with jrpgs these days than i used to be

i can thank mother 1 for getting me to do this cause i played it on a whim since i wanted to play a new jrpg and it was so short and i enjoyed it so much that it made me wanna play the rest of the trilogy

There’s a “what should I know before playing this game” thread where general strategies are posted or requested. There’s eve a wiki. Phone posting but you can google “beforeiplay”

I bought a used PS3 Super Slim last year for playing through Yakuza 3+4+5, and now we're 2/3rds of the way through 5 with Akiyama, and now my PS3 keeps locking up during gameplay. Anyone know if this means my PS3 is dying? I've never had this problem until now. I'm gonna try a vacuum to suck out the dust tomorrow, but I'm nervous I won't get to finish Y5 finally.

jimmy & the pulsating mass has at least one animated cutscene and a genre change to a v-novel high school sim that foregoes any of the usual cliches for an in-depth and actually sort of uncomfortable examination of the main character's dyslexia

this game has its problems but it's a crying shame that something so ambitious is getting so little buzz

also it genuinely Got Me with the riddle mentioned in the game's trailer:

"What weighs more, a pound of feathers or a pound of dogs?"

a pound of dogs, stupid. a pound is full of dogs, each one weighing many times more than a pound of feathers

also also jesus christ this game's music is some of the best i've heard since undertale and lisa

it makes a sinister horror track out of keyboard noises for god's sake

there's also a side-dungeon based around jimmy's admiration for his bookish father whose music track is a soothing electronica riff with a male voice calmly reciting the numbers one through nine, and later there's another, hidden "nightmare" dungeon where the hallways are scrawled with equations and change around as you move where the track's warped into harsh static with numbers being screamed in your ear at random

I can't wait for you to beat the game so I can see your reaction to the ending and if that affects your thoughts on the game.
