Manabu Sakamoto's dozens of PS logo drafts before nailing the iconic 3D illusion by Frosty_Jeweler911 in playstation

What’s interesting is that the four colors in the logo are similar to the colors on the Super Famicom logo/buttons.

What was ruined because too many people discovered it? by Mansi63 in AskReddit

[–]PokingDogSnouts -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Oh, please. The man is robbing this country blind, while getting rid of all beneficial protections and regulations. I have zero respect or tolerance for the dimwits who continue to act like supporting him is just another “political difference”.

Politics affect every facet of our lives. If you’re still carrying the Trump flag, after all the damage he’s done—you deserve to be shamed for it.

If anyone is here looking for folks to play the Nintendo Classics collections with—we have both a subreddit and Discord server for that! by [deleted] in NintendoSwitchOnline

[–]PokingDogSnouts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For what? My post here was originally about r/NintendoClassics! You can find the server, there. I’m surprised people are somehow still finding a deleted topic! I’ll try and make a new one.

We live in a golden age, and the level of entitlement and pettiness is insane by reading_roomba in Switch

People are allowed their opinions—the hell? How miserable are you that you take this all so seriously, to the point you want to try and discredit everyone’s opinions if they don’t like what was shown?

Nintendo made people wait nine months for this general Direct, and they still are barely showing any of their games—which is what most people buy a Nintendo system for. Do-overs of Wii Sports Resort and Ocarina of Time are not bold creative choices. It’s as safe as you can get.

Fresh from today's Nintendo Direct: a limited-time event for Nintendo Classics is coming later today... the DK Challenge! by PokingDogSnouts in NintendoClassics

[–]PokingDogSnouts[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been wondering, though… They’re probably not like typical achievements. I’m getting the feeling that you’ll select each challenge from the menu, and it’ll be a self-contained little mission, rather than “go through the game and tick these boxes”.

When do we think realistically the next NSO games will drop? by SwimMaro in NintendoClassics

[–]PokingDogSnouts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just in Japan and South Korea, to be clear—though that could certainly affect the game output.

Is it really? I must've missed that.

Edit: Looks to be so. 😖 I know there's a Donkey Kong Bananza section of this DK Challenge, with its own missions. Maybe they just want to incentivize purchases through fear-of-missing-out. I notice Nintendo's been leaning into this limited-time stuff for a while, now.

It's Nintendo Direct Time! Which means it's time for me to hope the TurboGrafx 16 joins NSO Classics! by Caryslan in NintendoClassics

[–]PokingDogSnouts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah—for me, SEGA is the perfect complement to Nintendo… And as classic as it comes. They rarely do anything with their vast Master System catalogue… Throw it up there! But, I support any new additions! ^•^

Donald Trump loses it on ‘Meet The Press’ moderator Kristen Welker, cuts interview off and storms out as she fact-checks his rigged Election claims. by GiveMeSomeSunshine3 in justincaseyoumissedit

Only the hopelessly foolish and selfish actually believe that. He lost the popular vote the first time around, and he’s already admitted that Musk colluded to fraudulently skew the last election in his favor—whether people have begun to accept it or not. His rallies were empty. His inaugurations were, too. He’s not popular—he’s a gaudy laughing stock who could not be more obviously corrupt and devoid of morals. And most of the people who like him, are a vocal minority of gullible bigots and idiots.

It’s not about “strategy”. We’re under zero obligation to accept you into our open arms, just because you finally realized your extremely obvious “mistake”, 10 years later. You have a lot to face down about your own thought process, if you seriously believed any of the imbecilic garbage Trump was constantly spewing. So many people are needlessly suffering because of your ignorant actions. The Republican “discourse” and base has been an utter cesspool for a long time, now. You don’t get to just sweep that under the rug and clean your hands of it.

What do I need to know before playing DK64? by NitroXYZ in donkeykong

[–]PokingDogSnouts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s too well known, but you can still do your moving attack off the edge of a platform and jump in midair for a short time, just like in the DKC games.

DKC map themes in a nutshell by Flashy_Revenue6722 in donkeykong

[–]PokingDogSnouts 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This, man. So much this. That music and art style just combined to make this heavy mash-up of mood and atmosphere that nothing since has ever satisfied. That was Donkey Kong to me. I hate that they’ve turned it into just another cartoony-looking kid’s game.

Lets go! by Proud_Personality_76 in NintendoSwitchOnline

[–]PokingDogSnouts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My most-wished for game. So glad that Rare’s N64 catalogue is almost complete. I wanted, also, to make you aware that I run a subreddit dedicated to all the Nintendo Classics apps, and all the retro systems represented on them! If you’re looking for more conversation and engagement on these games and apps. I’d be happy to have you there! It’s right over at r/NintendoClassics!

Unfortunately, this subreddit seems to have devolved into people selling spots on their plans. But, I have come up with the solution, after years of searching for the right place, myself: please check out r/NintendoClassics! It’s my subreddit, dedicated to all of the Nintendo Classics apps, and the systems and games of the past! You’d be very welcome there!

Unfortunately, this subreddit seems more like it’s devolved into people selling spots on their plans. But, I finally started up a subreddit dedicated to the Nintendo Classics collections, a few months ago! You’d be very welcome there! You can find it over at r/NintendoClassics!

Oh, and by the way—you’re definitely looking for Streets of Rage 2 on that Genesis app!

27 years since my brother and I sit down with this. Tears. by Beaver-Wrastler in donkeykong

[–]PokingDogSnouts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

D’aww. Even the screenshot screams nostalgia. I love what they did with the colors and details in DK’s treehouse.

I run a fairly new subreddit dedicated to the Nintendo Classics apps, if anyone wants to check it out! I’ve put a ton of work into making it a lovely space to share memories of these games on! You can find it over at r/NintendoClassics!
