holy shit
A fabricated statement from Nintendo of America's Twitter account addressing a fictitious scenario in which the Earth's oxygen supply is presumed to be depleting at a rapid pace, leaving humanity with mere days to live. "This is Miyamoto. On behalf of everyone who is employed at Nintendo Co. LTD and its subsidiaries, we deeply mourn the countless human lives which will be lost due to the depletion of the global oxygen supply. To anyone who has ever played one of our games, we are eternally grateful to have created long-lasting fun and memories for you. To ease the suffering of families and children across the world, the Mario Kart World game for the Nintendo Switch 2 system will be available as a free download on Nintendo eShop for the foreseeable future. We hope this small gesture of kindness will ease the pain as humanity prepares for a worst-case scenario." The statement is distastefully plastered with logos for Nintendo and Nintendo Switch 2, as well as with a render of Mario from Mario Kart World.
A fabricated Twitter thread responding to the fabricated Nintendo statement. John Default Profile Picture: "No one read this statement and thought it was distasteful? Why did Miyamoto think this would help anyone?" NintenDeen: "Simple: Nintendo is so depraved that they'd exploit a global crisis to boost the player count of the failed Mario Kart World and force consumers back into the Switch 2 ecosystem to boost sales and player numbers."
A fabricated Twitter thread responding to the fabricated Nintendo statement. PlayStation Nation: "What the fuck are you doing falsely advertising sales during these trying times? I went to the website and Mario Kart World is still selling for $80 USD." Kremling Kevin: "If you actually read the statement, it clearly says the discount is available on Nintendo eShop. Meaning the application on the Switch 2 itself, not the web browser version." PlayStation Nation: "Point still stands."
A fabricated Tweet responding to the fabricated Nintendo statement. Isaboner: "Nothing for Switch 1 owners?"
Had a dream that there was global panic about the world running out of oxygen, Nintendo was the only video game company to make a statement about it, and the internet collectively spent its final hours on Earth debating whether Nintendo was being genuine or not
Paranormasight is currently $4.99 on Switch US EShop.
If you havenโt played it yet, nowโs the time. Especially with the sequel around the corner! One of the top titles of 2023 for me!
A must-play for Horror, Adventure, and/or VN fans!
Worth remembering that something did happen: the journalist who revealed this died from a car bomb.
In solidarity with today's ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA blackout, MinnMax is donating $1 to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota for every share of this Bluesky post for the next hour.
Just did a test of the new Mario Kart World patch and I think Nintendo really outdid themselves this time.
Almost a year ago, I started this crazy project. And now, it's finally time to vote on "The Greatest Game of All Time!"

For years, but especially for the past year, Democrats have been in thrall to the idea that they need to chase an imagined median voter, and adopt that voterโs positions. Mamdaniโs victory shows another way: hold principles, and persuade people to share them.
I enjoyed Ghost of Yotei a lot โ as I have many recent PS5 exclusives โ but Iโm starting to get a little bored with the same themes repeating themselves.
Hereโs a piece on grief, revenge, and PlayStation's struggle for new stories.

Actually horrific
For our review of Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter, we asked a writer who has never played Trails to check out the remade first entry of the long-running series.
"Itโs the easiest 10/10 Iโve ever given... This is a must-play."

the trans pride flag
Here is some non-satire for you:
Trans rights forever.
This โsolo devโ and โonly 3 devsโ rhetoric is getting truly dangerously out of hand. Investors see this and think โI only have to pay 3 peopleโ and the result is severely overworked and/or underpaid people and a subpar product. We need to stop treating outsourcers and contractors like ghosts.
โDas grรถรte Missverstรคndnis bis heute: Die Popularitรคt der AfD stieg nicht analog zu den Geflรผchtetenzahlen. Sie stieg in Kombination mit der neuen Parteistrategie โ und weil niemand sie bremste.โ

Alright Trails fans, @daniel.gvg.io and I have a 40 minute discussion on the 1st Chapter demo and our impressions as complete newbies to this franchise that should release tomorrow! Hope youโre excited to hear what we think of it so far!
I don't know how to say this politely, but it's time we move on from Geoff Keighley.
One person being in charge of all the big industry events is not a good thing. We see this man on stage three times a year and it's the same song and dance every time
Dear Me, I Was has no real gameplay, it's 40 minutes long and it's brilliant

It's heartening to see Big Names speak out about this issue, I think it's something artists and creatives from all genres and levels of notoriety can unite on automaton-media.com/en/news/nier...
Hey. I've written a new article.
One of the difficulties in talking about "how can we do something better" is that it means we gotta talk about what isn't going well.
I wrote this in the hopes that reading it would give you tools to write work you're proud of.

Tried to distill a few building frustrations into a blog, while also offering my read on Clair Obscur as a Covid text and highlighting some great crit and analysis on the game. www.digitaltrends.com/gaming/can-w...
People and media often say Balatro was made by 'one guy'. I feel like that unfortunately may be stoking the flames of this David vs. Goliath narrative a tiny bit
No it was not 'one guy', look at the dang in-game credits
Tune into the Xbox showcase on Sunday where they'll reveal the next Call of Duty, made by a solo dev and 2,999 of his friends
Major video game media websites are not getting Switch 2 consoles until launch, which will result in a delay to reviews of Switch 2 and its games. www.thegamebusiness.com/p/major-medi...
I tweeted this before I understood the full scope and ambition of this game... holy crap. If you're into visual novels, don't miss this one. It's like if Danganronpa and Virtue's Last Reward had a baby that took a bunch of growth hormones
A piece of concept art in the Art of Super Mario Odyssey book is overlaid with the text "Note: Relief is temporary." While it actually refers to the fact that the design of the relief carving is not finished, it inadvertently appears to make an existential statement instead.
I just realized that April Fools Day happened without me even noticing and itโs a small win but Iโll take it.
โDie Deutschen simulieren in ihrem Wahlkampf Normalitรคt; sie beschรคftigen sich mit รbersprungshandlungen (der Flรผchtlingsfrage), um die erschreckende Realitรคt nicht zur Kenntnis nehmen zu mรผssen.โ Hannes Stein ist fassungslos
