  1. The Ice Climber numbers sixteen, and the Ice Climbers number eight! It's also worth noting that it's not the number of on-screen characters that's the real problem (after all, you can have eight Rosalinas, or four on the 3DS) - it's the AI. I'm totally willing to believe that the 3DS has trouble with that AI computation, but the Wii U is obviously way more powerful than the 3DS. Bonus, it's not really doing all that much more, computationally speaking - graphics card is handling the bulk of the work in the bump to HD - so it should have more than enough power leftover to handle up to eight AI partners.
  2. Recently completed video games

    AFAIK it only lists f2p games you've actually played. I have no games on my list that I don't own or (if free) haven't played.
  3. Non-video games

    Dallas, Texas. CST.
  4. Non-video games

    Merus is in Australia. Doing it on the weekend, morning or evening or whatever, I'm cool with anything. Every other week probably better than every week! Or once a month! Or... whenever! I'd also be down!
  5. I'm gonna go ahead and state right now that I find it very very very difficult to believe the Wii U wouldn't be able to handle eight Ice Climbers.
  6. anime

    That's also why High School Boys' Nichijou is so good! It's not as stylized, artistically, but it also doesn't sexualize any high school characters.

    For steam specific backlog bustin', I actually like this website: http://www.steamcompletionist.net/
  8. "Ethics and Journalistic Integrity"

    It's been attempted. #GameEthics was "spawned" immediately following Quinn's nuclear bomb of IRC logs, and it went nowhere. EDIT: Oop Gorm beat me to it. Anyway, these people are clearly not acting in good faith, so it's not really worth the attempt.
  9. Sorta hope they do Ice Climbers even if it has to be exclusive to wee woo because 3DS can't handle it. Shame to lose such a unique character. Couldn't give less of a shit about Mewtwo, but, yeah, I'm excited about the prospect of DLC in general. I can only assume DLC has gone well for them up to this point. I'd be curious to see the MK8 DLC numbers even with it not actually released yet (?)
  10. anime

    Literary Girl segments are so good.
  11. anime

    No they're unrelated, just similar theme and structure.
  12. anime

    It's a good segment but I'd completely disagree with that statement.
  13. anime

    ):< yeah what gorm said (also watch high school boys' nichijou because it's also great)
  14. Wow, that has to be intentional. And also what he cut his face for acting??
  15. Recently completed video games

    I died forty times in the first two minutes of the first level (past the tutorial?) of Volgarr and quit in shame. Not permanently, but man I need to devote myself to getting better at that kind of game. I'm bad at it.
  16. Farscape

    That's unfortunate, because the real gold is after the plot with His Divine Shadow ends. It gets super ridico-bonkers. I won't hold it against anyone for not being able to put up with that show, but I fucking love it for how completely absurd it is. But it is also just really really awful. I won't apologize!
  17. Feminism

    Goddamnit BadHat I used to like that drawing.
  18. Life

    Heh...
  19. I actually liked labuff well enough (he was good in Indy 4! (I liked Indy 4 - I'll fight you)), but the plagiarism stuff definitely ruined that for me.
  20. Haven't played this much yet, so haven't actually run into Reza again (still in ch 2 with Kian!!), and don't remember much about Dreamfall (last I played it was a few years ago ;_; feel like I should read an in-depth summary of the previous games if I can find one), but
  21. NIIIIIIIIIICK I don't care if you need to physically kidnap him; make him be part of the 'cast more often.
  22. anime

    Could've sworn you had mentioned Princess Jellyfish in here before! Am I wrong? I guess I'm wrong. Well you have horrible taste then! (It comes from the fact that I like pretty much every cartoon you've recommended that I've watched.)
  23. "Ethics and Journalistic Integrity"

    I am attributing this motivation to the GamerGate movement. This is what the movement was created to do. It was not created for the purpose of actually giving a shit about journalistic ethics. That is just the method that the founders of GamerGate used to rope in a bunch of don't-know-betters so that their numbers can grow and they can actually legitimately use the "vocal minority" excuse. If someone is a member of GG but doesn't participate in harassment, they are complicit to the bullshit the other members perform. They are maybe "not as guilty", but they are still guilty as fuck and need to learn better. They've had ample opportunities to do so, and are at this point either willfully ignorant (bad) or have just accepted that the movement to which they've attached themselves is incredibly toxic (worse). I don't give a shit how many charities an asshole donates to. An asshole is an asshole.

    Did you mean Lexx? Lexx is completely and utterly insane and all about sex sex sex. The ship is a giant penis. There is a special dark place in my heart for Lexx. It's so bad, though. But also so great. Man. Lexx.
