New footage of the Ocarina of Time remake shows Link fighting a Dinolfos in the Spirit Temple, which previously only appeared in the Master Quest mode of the game. Could this mean Master Quest is coming back?

The Switch 2 exploits were inevitable. Specific games were always gonna be a backdoor. Let's just hope though, that we aren't seeing a repeat of the mistakes made during the Switch 1 generation. Monetizing emu builds, especially for unreleased games, are asking for Nintendo's lawyers.

This past Thursday, I decided to start another replay of The Legend of #Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D. This was my very first 3DS game. I'm amazed at how well designed this remaster is, while also still being very easily exploited with pre-existing glitches from the original and GC Master Quest.

I just had to block someone on Bsky who denies that Israel is committing genocide. They are anti-Trump, but they are ironically also anti-Palestine. Reminds me of that other person that I recently blocked who was pro-LGBTQ+, but a neoliberal capitalist. Being privileged and biased gets you nowhere

EG fell for it too. :( The Capcom presentation contains a slide with "AI世代のゲームエンジンへ" - the article omits the "へ", for one, but the issue is that while 世代 means 'generation', it's in the 'console generation' sense, not like GenAI. Without へ, translation software gets it totally wrong.

My girlfriend was talking about how the #ESRB game ratings arguably have the best designs, compared to the likes of CERO, PEGI, and other video game age rating systems. I took a look at it further, and not only do they have a nice, slightly fun design, but they also have the best usage of space.

I didn't ask for this to be escalated, so I'll put a stop to it. I blocked them and I'm not putting up with their bs any longer. This all started with a debate about physical media. I criticized them by saying their line of thinking was similar to ideas that leads to tech enshittification.

We have got to call shit like this out more, it would've saved my ass and made me so much less annoying.

Future Connected was not quite the follow-up to #Xenoblade that I was hoping for. It feels kinda like a filler episode that sets up a plot point more important than what is presented. The gameplay changes weren't drastic either. Riki's children were just carbon copies of Reyn and Sharla.

I started #Xenoblade Future Connected recently. My time with Xenoblade 1 already feels so long ago, even though I had just beaten that story at the end of July. Maybe it's because this is the first true (and canonical) glimpse at what happens after Xenoblade 1 and 2. After... such crazy events.

I've been in the process of de-Googling my #Android phone as much as possible without rooting. The amount of depth and control that #Google Play Services goes to is insane. Epic Games was right to challenge Google. If it's not a monopoly in storefronts, it's a monopoly in digital rights management.

I'm genuine impressed by Nintendo and The Pokémon Company. They fought off scalpers successfully on multiple occasions, when most other companies might turn a blind eye. Corporations don't care about their consumers. But one that cares about consumer loyalty over short-term profits is still better.

I watched #Avengers Endgame Encore last night with a friend, and let's just say I couldn't help it. I got pretty hyper for a movie I already watched like 5 times before. Some people in the audience, including myself, cheered during the Mjølnir scene and the portals scene. What a great experience.

3 out of 6 main Xenoblade games completed. Xenoblade 2 and Torna have broken me. Torna is how a proper prequel should be made. It doesn't hold hesitate to take risks where it needs to, but it also properly fills in the gaps.

As the saying goes, "vote with your wallets." If you have to make the sacrifice of missing out on your favourite game, it might do you some good. You'll actually find an excuse to try out different games.

I'll see people spamming PlayStation games with like "Physical please" type shit, but like most Online Movements they kinda lose their bite when you direct this toward games you can buy on disc. 

Almost like you're just posting for the sake of posting!

dear content creators: if your game's content is delayed or the release schedule is slowed down, do not keep calling it dead. most people with jobs other than "play the game" can handle a month of nothing, even if it personally bums you out and forces you to change plans. but dooming hurts everyone

#Xenoblade Torna feels like a super condensed Xenoblade 2. Character progression feels unusually fast and exploration is much shorter. But because of that, it makes the side content so much more rewarding. It doesn't feel like I have to commit 100 hours before fighting a high level enemy.

I thought that by leaving Twitter and Threads, I would escape the ads and sellouts. On the Nintendo instance, I've been on a blocking spree because there are sooooo many advertisers and journalists trying to promote their own work. I've also seen a lot of fake news outlets committing PLAGIARISM.

It's funny how many times the #Zelda "Breath of the Wild saga" was supposed to end. People initially thought that it was gonna end on November 6, 2025 with the release of Age of Imprisonment. But of course, we were still waiting on a localisation of TotK Master Works which was unknown at the time.
