bowsette is good and powerful but I'm mainly into the general theme of 'put a crown on every mario enemy' that grew from it. There's some cute rear end goomba-ette and chomp-ette art out there.

The funniest one to come out of all of that was Kirby getting ahold of it then turning into Android 21. I got a good laugh from that.

I'd much rather have Bowsette on my timeline than all the garbage that the rest of the world brings like bigotry and carnage.

Bowsette is a breath of fresh air!

What was the incepting point of Bowsette? I can't seem to figure out where it started, but granted I'm jet-lagged to hell and back so I might just be terrible at thinking right now.

I mean, there's also gross dudes being gross, but they're always doing that poo poo.

But yeah I know some people are tired of it, but various cute monsters being turned into cute princesses is something I will love until the day I die. Especially the chain chomp ones.

As far as I know Nintendo showed that Toadette putting on a crown turned her into Peachette, so the internet took this a sign to take any mario related entity, put a crown on them, and it turns them into a chick with gigantic honking tits with -ette added to the end of their name.

It was, at the start just a standard feature that you could read into as, "Yeah we're not adding playable Peach because we ain't changing the ssstory she still has to get kidnapped but here's a way to play as 'A Peach' so there's no consequences."

But there were consequences, and this was the consequence.

So if you said there would be consequences for them trying to rear end-pull a way to make Peach semi-playable while still keeping with the status quo with the real Peach as the damsel in distress congratulations because you were in a sense right.

This is the part that makes me think Nintendo might actually be crazy enough to try and capitalize on this somehow, instead of being sticks in the mud.

The moniker Bowsette isn't even a combo of Peach and Bowser, but it's too late to change now.

I'm an excellent critic! I automatically know when someone's done a bad job. Before you ask, yes it's a mixed blessing.

Bowsette should prove to Nintendo that the Mario Mythos is in need of a strong, female antagonist figure.* Nintendo has resisted making Wa-Peach for too long, I say!

*Sorry, Wendy O. Koopa.

I like that a lot of the Bowsette fanart features her as strong and commanding, since Bowser is exactly that. I hope we get Mom Bowser, and Bowser Jr. is all "HEH HEH, MY PARENTS OWN, GET 'EM MOM AND DAD."

This video is a few weeks past, but Sage recently reviewed Little Nemo, the prettiest animated assault on the senses ever, but I want to draw attention to the ending of the review. Bennett goes into detail about his local rental store, Video Droid, and how much of an impact it made on his life as a kid, and seeing the past fall away is pretty sad. It reminded me a lot of Ross Scott's efforts to preserve ancient games, because in the end, these creations are ephemeral unless steps are taken to save them for the next generation.
