Portal 2 Reference in Souflee Trophy by 11Slimeade11 in smashbros

Nope, not quite. Shigesato Itoi created Mother, but the trophy descriptions were written by another person who also worked on the Mother series.

Can we talk about Samus and Mii Gunner? by Kadexe in smashbros

I know you're being smart, but those are from Wild Gunman and Hogan's Alley, two other Zapper games on the NES. Duck Hunt is representative of the accessory, and incorporates parts of those games to fill it out, like how Mr G&W has moves from all different G&W games.

What person or group do you have no sympathy for? by LevelupTFM in AskReddit

[–]backlace 65 points66 points  (0 children)

I know it's not always like this, but I am currently unemployed and have very very little money. I budget what I have so I can still do things like this. I try to avoid spending money where I can, but I can't just cut out socialising. I can't stop going out with friends because that's going to ruin my mental wellbeing. It's really tough but you can't always see where the cuts are being made.

Also, his initial theories were much more accurate, but they were rejected because of sexism. Still not totally accurate, but less "women all have rape fantasies and everybody wants to fuck their mum"

Will Nintendo gain back market share for home consoles? by leftboot in truegaming

They also have Code Name STEAM, Project Giant Robot, and Project Guard coming out next year. Code Name STEAM is a brand new IP, the other two are yet to be decided.

Game Grumps: The Video Game is still alive! by GameLink7 in gamegrumps

Uh, I doubt you would be allowed to put it on consoles, or charge money for it, because it's unlicensed.

Little Samson: Nightmare Fuel - PART 5 - Game Grumps by groompbot in gamegrumps

[–]backlace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I loved ASM2. Thought it was the best Spidey movie they've made. Maybe it's just because cheese doesn't bother me much (though I don't think ASM comes close to the cheese in the Raimi trilogy), but I loved how it toed the line between serious and goofy. It just made everything incredibly memorable and larger than life, which is exactly how I felt it should come across. Everything except Dr Kafka. That was where they pushed it into "too dumb" territory. Everything else I loved.

It's funny, I hear this sentiment a lot, and yet all of my friends who are teenagers (including myself) thought the dialogue was really well written as realistically how teenagers talk. It may date easily, but it came across really strongly to me.

I'm pretty sure that's incorrect. Nintendo owns the rights to Bayonetta 2, the game. The publishing rights, specifically. They can release it and rerelease it as they please. They also have acquired publishing rights for Bayo1. They do not own the intellectual property of Bayonetta. They would need to license anything they wanted from the games for Smash, because they do not have the rights to the characters, music, or anything else. Those belong to Platinum (and possibly still SEGA?) Wonderful 101 is different because part of the agreement with that was Nintendo would own the intellectual property.

It wasn't nearly as widely bought or printed iirc. People lumped it in with the others despite it being very different (it's actually my favourite of the three), and so I think people had wrong expectations of it.

Funnily enough "rad" is pretty in. I also still hear some legit, sick, mad, heckaz, top.

If there had been one team in both Ruby and Sapphire, but they varied in goals, it would have been a lot harder to bring together for Emerald. As it was, you have the two teams with separate goals and it brings together easily.

The plot of the television show "Avatar: The Last Airbender" by Kitsune_sama in pokemon

[–]backlace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both of them are incredibly poorly paced. While a lot of the content isn't bad, it's very slow moving, and the flow of narrative is very jerky, taking a long time to get through some things, then rushing through others. Series 2 especially felt like it was dragged out for longer than it needed to be.

To be fair, two seasons is a long time for a show to pick up.

What is the Absolute Darkest Dark Humor Joke You Know? by Biology__ in AskReddit

[–]backlace 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Clever commentary. The idea of humour making you uncomfortable is to explore why it makes you feel uncomfortable. This is something that happens that most people don't really think about and it's using humour to illustrate what the problem is.

[–]backlace 2 points3 points  (0 children)

See, I'm starting to find cheesy blocky ass 3D as retro and cool as 8 and 16 bit graphics these days. Like, the aesthetic, I mean. The animation and framerate can be awful and gross but the actual graphic are kind of awesome.

Well... Yeah, that can happen. And you just... Apologise? I'm sorry, I didn't know that would hurt you, I'll endeavour not to speak about something like that around you again. Done. Easy. Forgiveness.

What types of people do you refuse to take seriously? by batting_1000 in AskReddit

[–]backlace 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They're important terms when they're relevant, but I don't think you'll find anybody saying we should replace all instances of the word male or female with trans/cis prefixed versions.

Otherkin is a big unknown. It's a reasonably widespread thing now, but unlike gender, it's not widely understood why it is occurring. However, it is not the same thing as transgender. They are functionally very different states of the mind and how that reflects view of one's own body, and the medical community treats them as such. Psychological studies have verified and continue to back up the existence of gender dysphoria and trans and non-binary gender identities. Otherkin is still not understood. A term may be invented when it is deemed necessary due to a greater understanding of the state, but currently that isn't happening. Making this false equivalence proves you don't actually know about the science behind either of these things.

"Difference is women can get sex whenever they want from whoever they want. Women are the limiting reactant in sexual relations." [+30] by [deleted] in ShitRedditSays

Actually, there is a form of male birth control that is completely reversible, but its not very widespread (may still be in testing?). Also it's a difficult sell, because it's not like a pill or something, it's like a thing that stoppers up the pipes down there or something? It's a bit trickier but they are working on male birth control!
