And it made one-eighth the difference.
I live every day of my life like Mother 3 is never coming out.

This is extremely accurate to Louisiana though, they even used the correct school colors for the college its an obvious reference too. Hell, the devs went an extra mile and the potato chip bags in the house are modeled after a local louisiana brand.

Louisiana houses don’t have basements or crawl spaces because they’re below sea level and would be constantly flooded, and the millipedes in the game are a species that only live in Japan. Immersion ruined

I love this thread :) One of the best on the forums!

Have the Splatfest results been published yet? I’m curious to see which team will win - I was playing on Team Mikey last night but the opposing teams were really good

Donnie won overall, but Mikey had popularity. There's a splatoon thread too!

I lost my mother almost five years ago from a brain aneurysm, I can’t imagine losing them so young. I’m so sorry for your loss..

This article helped me a little bit today: https://johnpavlovitz.com/2015/05/09/for-those-who-hurt-on-mothers-day/

Also, apparently Team Donny won the Splatfest, goddamnit.

Apologies if this has already been posted but Argos UK has preorders of the compendium edition of octopath traveller on pre-order for £31.99, which is cheaper than the regular version on Amazon. Seems like a mistake as this version is 95 quid other places.

Thanks, just ordered it. I'm fully expecting them to cancel it and tell me to go gently caress myself, but maybe I'll get lucky.

Played the ARMS demo, it's super thorough. It's a fun game, tried the motion controls and they seem fine, will try buttons another time. I don't see myself ever really getting quite good at it though.

Wondering this myself, looked up a video and in a half hour someone already beat the entire thing so uh... really wondering why people are excited about it other than "it is a game that exists and is on the switch"

People can beat Super Mario Odyssey in an hour and 2 minutes, that doesn't mean Minit is only a 30 minute long game.

I like them but I went this way too just because the idea of Bowser and Peach teaming up with Mario was, and still is, rad as gently caress to me.

SquareEnix owns the copyright to Mallow and Geno, Nintendo and SquareEnix jointly own the rights to the game as a whole. Rare owns nothing to do with Mario RPG.

Thought it was worth a shot, apparently it went up yesterday at £38.98 then got reduced aaccording to the fountain of poo poo knowledge that is HotUKDeals.

Would be cool if they honour it but it's no great loss if they don't!

The story goes that Nintendo and Square couldn't decide which of them owned Super Mario RPG, so they went to a great king to settle this. The king said, "The only fair way to settle this is to saw the video game in half."

Nintendo looked at Square and said, "gently caress that, let's just give it to Rare." And the rest is history.

Just one more thing!
I appreciate the Nintendo games in years since that have in the credits a statement that pretty much boils down to "we claim rights to all these assets" so if they port someday they don't have to worry about someone owning the rights to a random leaf on a tree or whatever.
