I don't recommend playing many games more than once, but Disco Elysium has meaningful replay value

I've still gotta play Disco. Here's a cool Scandinavian dance metal song that is appropriate.

My disdain for you all knows no bounds.
The artificial lag for Lava Piranha is still there. Theory on that is to slow down Lava Piranha's taking damaged animation (probably for seizures) since he shakes a lot more in the original.

If Majora's Mask is emulated with no glitches I might have to finally shell out for the online expansion.

I am playing through MK8D again to prepare for the DLC and I forgot how lackluster the roster is. It feels like Nintendo went for quantity over quality, so many of the characters are either a Koopaling or an iteration of the same character. I kinda wish the upcoming DLC would give us new characters like Funky Kong and Petey Piranha.

I think I know what you're saying, but "lackluster" can't possibly be the right term to use here. It's a beast of a roster that is very nearly a culmination of all previous games before it, and it takes my kid at least 2 full minutes to decide on a character before every single race

I actually wish it lacked a smidge more luster so we could get to the race faster

It's not Smash, it's a driving game. There's like 50 different cars and about 30,000 different combinations of all available options.

He did a good job with King Boo in Double Dash, who I think would have an even harder time working the pedals.

And we had to share it!

In "I'm honestly surprised this didn't happen like 35 years ago" news, Nintendo has acquired SRD Co Ltd. If you're wondering "literally who?", they're a programming company that's contributed code to the vast majority of games Nintendo has made since the NES days (they outright programmed the NES Marios and Zeldas!) and their headquarters was literally inside of Nintendo's.

explained in an Iwata asks, too

Don’t have to do profit sharing with contractors, even if they ship 50 million copies :argh:

I really appreciate that they're making an effort to squash bugs (even if incrementally) rather than ignoring existing game bugs to focus on getting the next title out the door.

To be fair it's probably pretty easy for Nintendo to rip one of their own roms and upload it.

Just food for thought, boomers probably did play Nintendo. At least they definitely had Atari. But my parents are 60ish and cool and do martial arts and dig Lord of the Rings etc.
