maybe for YOU

#yes i’m being torn apart by wild animals on the daily as part of my job #yes i’m gonna dress up and look cute #sucks to be you i guess. survey corps gang 💪 #i get tons of money every day for doing menial tasks and only occasionally falling down a mountainside #peach plays legends arceus #on a real note i understand this sentiment #i imagine the clothing shop and hairstylist aren’t super popular places unless you’re already very well off in jubilife #just because people are worried about their security and whether they’ll have enough food to eat etc #stuff like that is a luxury for them that they can only treat themselves to once in a while #maybe they somewhat resent anthe and arezu for what they represent (a life of fun and luxury they can’t afford)

So... Nintendo Direct thoughts I guess.

I joined a little late, so honestly, I just fast forwarded through all the games I didn't care about. Kinda the way to go tbh.

I still don't know about pokemon man. Everyone is saying "Yeah it's poorly made but it's one of their better games in a long time" but like I don't know how much I trust a pokemon fan's opinion on that that... you know I preordered Violet, after Legends Arceus left a good impression on me. But I cancelled it after some financial harships started happening and now I feel like I dodged a bullet.

Sonic Super Stars is looking pretty good, I really... really wish Fang was playable... I know he's a bad guy but I love him so much and have always wanted him to be playable... I'm just glad he's back at all, and his 3D model looks decent.

That "Saturday Morning Cartoon" inspired game intrigues me but like they shouldn't have had the boring Nintendo Direct narrator talking over the trailer and let the game speak for itself, show it's personality a little... does it have cheesy filmation style dialogue?? Also their villain looks kind of lame compared to like, Skeletor or Prime Evil.

Still not sure about Splatoon 3. It just looks like more of the same to me, I am kind of curious, but at the same time, it feels too late to start now... then again, if the game really is as samey as it looks, I could probably just coast on what I know from Splatoon 1 and 2.

I have no interest in Detective Pikachu as a franchise and the fact that his personality just seems to be "I love coffee" does not endear me to the character.

Super Mario RPG

Holy Fucking Shit

I didn't think the maniacs would do it.

When I heard the rumors I was like "Yeah right... this does not fit in line with the current corporate image of Mario, they're not gonna do it, and if they do, they'll butcher the art style"

I was so fucking wrong, it looks amazing. They even made Mario all squat and pudgy like the original game, I love it so much, and it looks like there are new cinematics... possibly even entirely new sections of the game what with Bowser riding his Clown car with the others.... that or they're new special attacks. I can't fucking wait you guys it looks so fucking good, I hope they consider making it a franchise again. I still have the original game but I am going to buy this day one.

We even saw Boshi briefly, and the spines still have their weird shapes. I have no reason to believe they'll change Terrapins into standard looking Koopa Troopas now. Literally all my fears are gone.

Don't know what to think about the Peach game. I make it no secret, I'm kind of over the whole arts and crafts aesthetic in games and a game that's just a stage play seems no different. I'm not even sure what kind of game it is. I just would have wanted another platformer. I guess I have to see more.

Luigi's Mansion 2 coming to Switch is a pleasant surprise. I wonder if we're going to enter an age of 3DS ports, because I can think of several 3DS games I want to see on Switch. Kid Icarus and A Link Between Worlds chief among them Luigi's Mansion 2 is my least favorite in the series, but it's still a good time. It not being on handheld makes me more likely to replay it. I do think they could have enhanced the visuals a little more though.

Too little too late with Batman. I already bought it on PC. I would have bought the Arkham Trilogy day one if it launched earlier in the Switch's life. But i'm glad the option is there for people.

I'll be honest I thought Dragon Quest Monsters looked pretty "meh", and I don't know if it's just a bad trailer or what, but the fact that the Solo, the Hero from DQIV shows up, immediately got my interest, he hs my fave hero design, and I was happy he was a skin in Smash Bros... still, man, this looks like a 3DS game... How can they be releasing this after Dragon Quest XI?? Also, is the playable character the bad guy from DQIV? I played the NES version so I didn't really see his human form.

Not much to say about Pikmin. It looks like Pikmin. Which is a good thing. But I don't know how eager I am to play it. Not a day one purchase, but an eventual purchase.

I am tempted by the Metal Gear Solid collection but it has so much extra shit that I don't really need which probably jacks up the price and I think I might prefer playing MGS1 on a CRT anyway. But man it's jsut been so long since I played Metal Gear that I don't even care I just want a way to play it. I'm just glad it's not a fucking Cloud game.

Penny's Big Breakaway had my attention just from the character designs, it screams Playstation 1 platformer. Like Mega Man Legends or Tail Concerto or something. And it's a 3D platformer... but when I heard the Sonic Mania team is working on this, i'm all in. I just wish the enemies weren't just a bunch of dopey looking birds, I want a least some kind of cool factor in the game. But yes I will be keeping my eye on this one.

Mario Kart 8 DLC looking okay. I expected Petey. He's cool I guess but i'm not gonna play as him. I'll be happy to see him on the track though. He was kind of a big part of Mario History in the Gamecube and Wii era.... Wiggler though? Meh... and KAMEK. He should have been in the base game imo, he should be a mainstay in every spinoff, he should have been introduced with the Yoshi's Island course... I'm very happy to have Kamek here. The course looks interesting too. Glad it appears to be another new course.

The new Wario Ware....... looks like Smooth Moves 2. Was the boring Nintendo Direct Narrator doing a Wario voice or did Wario get a new voice actor?? Anyway. I'll keep an eye on this. Smooth Moves was my 2nd Fave Wario Ware game, so this shows potential.

I was pretty bummed out when they mentioned Tears of the Knigdom, and it was only to announce some Amiibos... I still can't even find the Link Amiibo. They look nice though. It will be nice to have a Ganondorf Amiibo that doesn't look like shit. ( No offense to TP Ganondorf fans, but you gotta admit, the first wave f Smash Bros Amiibos is kind of rough ) ...I hope this isn't a deconfirmation of DLC. I really want more of this game, now that the main story is done and my list of side quests is rapidly shrinking, I'm getting sad about the inevitable end of one of my fave Zeldas.

And the big one

Super Mario Wonder

I'll admit I was disappointed that it was doing 3D again instead of a hand drawn style...

But the characters look so good now. They actually look more like 3D models of Koichi Kotabe's artwork. Mario and co are so expressive, their stances are not nearly as boring as the New Super Mario Bros games, their animations are so good, calling back to Mario 3 and Mario World with the blurry feet and airplane run, Mario actually HAS facial expressions now... and holy shit is fucking DAISY playable? Without sacrificing Toad? This is pretty huge! The enemies are looking really cool and stylized too, they all seem to have gotten model upgrades!

I will say... this is reminding me a little bit of Kirby Return to Dreamland, which... is worrying to me. That "wonder Flower" reeks of a Kirby gimmick, and I honestly find that Kirby's gimmicks lately just kind of slow the flow of the game, and often times just feel like all flash and no substance. "ooh I destroyed a hole room of enemies with a really big sword that I was forced to pick up" like I don't actually feel like I accomplished anything with that... I hope I'm wrong.

Also, I heard the rumor that there would be elephants... I don't like elephants. I thought I'd hate Elephant Mario... but you know what, he makes me smile.

I am so excited for this game.

This was definitely one of the better Nintendo Directs in a while, it won't top the back to back Banjo in Smash and Tears of the Kingdom reveal for me, but i'm pretty happy with what's on the horizon.

I should be playing my Pokemon Legends Arceus Gai playthrough, but i got side tracks with Princess Peach showtime XD

[ravenswcrn]

Keiran is going to get some sort of rival pokemon to the cute orange (probably a peach given the area zero book) and fight us with it.

Shiny turtle is a decoy for the Orb™️ not the actual source for tera.

Original Dragon at Absolute Zero, but we won’t know it’s the Original Dragon until later. Why would it look like the components it broke into? Why assume it looks anything like b/w kyurem? Always been one of my biggest gripes with fan designs of it.

Themes are too consistent between b/w and s/v. Something is coming together here.

Something something spiritual alchemy of the self leading to divine awareness and perception, which Arceus strangely lacks, almost as if it is missing from the wheel. Still the basis of what i think it wanted in Legends. Definitely wasn’t JUST so you’d stop Volo and Tina (didn’t even seem to know/care what was going on) and asks you to ‘seek out all pokemon’ then when you don’t find what it’s looking for gives you a peice of itself so it can go looking with you.

Something something all of the recent big boys since g6 are different iterations of the same thing (body, blood, spirit)

PPP is self-aware of being in a video game, hence why all information is smudged out until Briar shows you right off the bat in the DLC. (Pokemon has been playing with selfaware themes for a while now)

PMD2 when?

I've been taken hostage by Legends Arceus, send help 😩

Oh also I contemplated the glory of Cuddly Viktor and this happened;

---

Viktor is a cat, you've decided. A big, lanky cat that makes strange noises under his breath and chews on pencils in replacement for purring.

This line of thinking is brought on by a great deal of professional observation as Jayce puts it, and you pointedly ignore the deep, teasing lilt in his voice.

Viktor is- is very tactile.

Incredibly so.

You hadn't anticipated it, he has such an aloof and introverted personality in public but- one drunken night with just the three of you and Viktor had accepted you as part of the family, which meant one key component: touch.

He's always touching you somehow, leaning on you instead of his cane when he shows you something in his notes or makes a snide comment for only you to hear, a hand between the shoulder blades when he ushers you through a door, playing with your hair, grabbing your hands.

He never stops touching you.

And you don't mind it! In fact it's a pleasant and heartwarming thing, to see his trust in you displayed so genuinely, so intimately.

But this is just excessive.

You were just laying on your back on the couch Jayce had bought for late nights in the lab, doodling in your journal while Viktor poured over his dusty old engineering textbooks for some much-needed inspiration.

And then suddenly you were crushed beneath a surprisingly heavy weight.

Viktor had laid on top of you.

You're both back to back, and you can both feel and smell when his head comes to settle comfortably against your shoulder, those wild tresses of auburn curl delicately around your face and tickle your cheek, and the scent of peaches and cinnamon greet you warmly.

It'd be intoxicating if you weren't suffocating.

"Vik... Viktor, you're crushing me here."

"Are you calling me fat?" He sounds amused.

"I'm calling you big, you heathen."

You squirm beneath him, and the scandal rises when he has the audacity to laugh at your plight, laugh!

And then he rolls over, and your brain melts.

His mouth is against your ear, and the horrifying thing is that you don't think he even realizes what he's doing as he speaks, softly as to not hurt you.

"I apologize, my spine is sore and you're always quite warm... You soothe me, I suppose."

Well you couldn't throw him off, now.

OH FUCK-

I love when people lie on me ughhhh awlkfnaelnajde the warmth the contact the intimacy.... T_T you write so fucking WELL!!!!! BRAVO BRAVO T___T *blushing*

can someone tell me how evolving eevee works btw. i know it can evolve in multiple directions but idk how that works still. i’m assuming you still have to get it up to a certain level until it says it’s ready to evolve but do you then get to choose which stone to use on it? or do you use the stones at all? and what’s the level requirement exactly

#peach plays legends arceus #i named it eeby btw. if you even care
