Sometimes I hate myself for the kind of gameplay ideas I have, coding this tumbling block physics with the screws was SOO hard
But I'm happy that the block puzzles are getting more varied and better integrated with the platforming, pacing and all
(game is ABYSS X ZERO, btw)

i'm gonna be real. if arc raiders or any game that has genai in it or was snuck in/patched out wins an award at TGA or game of the year, it's gonna be bad. the awards are meaningless to the average consumer. but to execs it's a huge deal and it'll be a signal for them to keep pushing for it.

No Switch 2 enhancements leads me to believe that they're still planning a $20 Switch 2 Edition + DLC for later.

I’ll probably grab it once version 1.3 hits Switch 2. Seems with the dynamic music being fixed, all if my major issues with the release will be resolved then.

Interesting for Nintendo to say that acquisitions are part of their growth strategy since they've been saying that they prefer organic growth until now.
Still I imagine they don't have anything big in mind. Probably looking at some of their existing close partners like HAL and Intelligent Systems.

In Pikmin 4 Ask the Developer, Miyamoto-san literally said:
“ピクミンは、あなたの近くにいるよ”
→ Pikmin are close to you
(The official English transcript is “Pikmin are all around us” instead, because they translated it idiomatically instead of literally.)

Last time Nintendo uploaded a trailer with no context we got Emio so I'm excited to see what this will be. Especially since this is obviously something Pikmin related.

Some day Nintendo fans will understand that Nintendo treats its universes as piles of beloved music and iconography to be remixed and recontextualized into fun new games and not an interconnected linear narrative linked by causality

Gonna go even further: don't refer to it as "consuming media" when doing this. You aren't a consumer - it's not a product. You read books. You look at art. You watch movies and/or videos. Be careful about word choice.

I'm being so real right now, learn how to engage in media as art and not a reflection of your own real life morals. consume things that make you uncomfortable and understand why it makes you uncomfortable. Don't just base yours and others morals standings on the media you consume.

I'm not at all surprised that Yacht Club was able to get Switch 2 dev kits but I do wonder how it benefits a game like Mina The Hollower. Doesn't seem like a game that needs it.
