Really hope Nintendo pushes the Switch in the 3DS route and has a million and one collectors editions of the console, giving me a little bit more incentive to buy a new one. I had mine for about six months as a gift before it got relegated into a YouTube machine by my brother, and at this point the joycons look like a house pet got to them. Loved the thing in the while I had it though, and now that I see games like Terraria and Civilization on it- sheesh.
Sticker Star's sole redeeming factor is the music, which easily ranks among my favprite videogame soundtracks. Classic Mario music mixed with Jazz goes down really smooth.
I forgot to mention when it was announced, but one of the SDCC exclusives for Mattel is Metal Mario with a Paraglider

Pre-orders don't start for a couple of weeks, and the only way you can get it at the moment is pre-ordering then picking it up from SDCC when it starts. The regular ones sold in stores, which look like this

Sebastian Gorka, Trump’s former deputy assistant, is getting mad about a Nintendo parody account

he should be careful with speaking up against incest, could alienate his voter base
New Earthbound 64 gameplay footage resurfaced recently:

Teleporting into space sounded like Illusion of Gaia and it kinda plays like Secret of Mana so I figured that was what you were talking about
Either way, both great games.
I found out that my 3DS is bulging and slowly becoming a fire hazard. I'm going to replace the battery as soon as I can but watch out for that if you still have one of those kicking around.
It's pretty obvious that AC:aF was supposed to be the full Animal Crossing 5 at one point, and then when Iwata kicked it, they just shunted out the assets they had as a quick board game while moving the real development over to Switch, a la Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash and Aces.
But it was revealed before he died
It was revealed at E3 2015. He was on death's door as conference was going on. BotW was also pulled from E3 2015 at the last minute, remember.
Forgive me if I am wrong, but didn't he argue (and probably lose) against an AOC parody account?

Is there a rom for this thing out in the wild? I'd like to think that there's a hoarder having a meltdown right now if it isn't already dumped.
That game and its spiritual sequel Terranigma are absolute classics
Shame about IoG's english translation though
Surprisingly, it has! The story behind it is that the founders of the Tetris company were not very good at establishing who had exclusivity (at that point, it was Nintendo), which led to both SEGA and Atari assuming they had the rights to produce copies [for the Mega Drive and NES, respectively] before the latter lost in a court battle that concluded Nintendo was the one that actually had the rights to make home versions. SEGA at this point had already started manufacturing, but less than a dozen copies survived the destruction, all for the Japanese system. Luckily, it's already in English because puzzle games involving blocks don't really require much dialogue.
At some point, some collector in good faith released the ROM, which is not something many prototypes have been lucky with, as many known prototypes are considered lost forever due to hoarders keeping one-of-a-kind titles stowed away. (i.e. how the Pokemon Gen 2 betas only got out because a hoarder in Japan kicked the bucket)

nintendo wouldn't do this...
...right?
There's always a 1/10 chance Nintendo does some dumbass shit

He had the balls to make a repo, too.
Pokemon Sword/Shield are now eligible for the Switch game vouchers.
i think I may buy one and use it on SMM2 and Sword.

I expect something to be in the Direct/livestream about it if they have a demo on the floor for it.
Lack of Three Houses scares me.
