Also the episode title made me think you would talk about Chinese censorship. Like Game For Peace, the new title for Player Unknown's Battlegrounds...

The story behind the train is allegedly that Aonuma's kid liked trains so he forced trains into Zelda. When players tried to just speed through the train parts Aonuma made the train slower to force people to appreciate it.
Yeah, reeeeaaaal fun to be on a train, play a game to pass the time while it goes somewhere and have your game make you wait for your train to go somewhere...
Now I wonder if there's a ROM hack that replaces the train with instant teleportation and how that changes the way players approach the game...

Is Marathon any good with the SRS rules? They seem designed for competitive play, especially the infinite spin gets a lot of complaints usually. In competitive modes you need to be fast or your opponent basically gets free hits on you so infinite spinning has a downside but in Marathon that falls away.

Ever since his first appearance in SMB 3 Spike's defining trait has been the ability to store unfeasably large objects in his body that he just pulls out of his mouth. So Spike could be Bowser's walking storage container.

In the GBA Game & Watch Collection there's a modern rendition of the Chef G&W, in that version you bounce food with your pan until it is done and then let it fall behind you where a Yoshi stands. Once the Yoshi eats enough it lays an egg and after a few more pieces of food that egg hatches into a baby Yoshi and the adult runs off (you then feed the baby until it grows up and the cycle repeats). I don't think it's really canon but that is a game showing Yoshis laying eggs just from being fed and having new Yoshis hatch from those.

You get +25% garbage generation for every fully upgraded badge, it looks like each badge slot requires more badges than the last to fill.
SRS rules are mandated by the Tetris Company. TGM's ARS is not standard anymore and likely wouldn't be allowed to be in a new Tetris game.

TalkBack / Re: Could A VR-Related Switch Announcement Be Approaching?
« on: February 16, 2019, 09:47:47 AM »
VR in 720p is going to be bad. I have an Oculus Rift and anything past a few meters away is blurry and details get hard to see. And that thing runs at 2160x1200 in total.
I mean, personally I find VR without tracked hand controllers a waste since you can't just reach out and grab things and just sticking a Switch into a headset case won't allow it to track any controllers... Half the fun is to grab an object and look at it to figure out how it works and using your head to point at things isn't remotely as nice as using your hands.
Also of note: Oculus is releasing the Quest headset which is a standalone system with hand controllers, the headset handles tracking the controllers so there's no fixed infrastructure needed. That seems like it would compete with Switch VR.

The term in the law for the point where returns end is "performance" (not delivery) so it's not clear whether pre-loading counts. Pretty likely the court will rule that it doesn't.

TBh I think Tomorrow Corporation's programming games are fairly beginner level, not just in what they make you do but in what they are, they seem like someone inventing a new genre (not saying TC invented it but maybe they didn't look at what's already out there) and still not really knowing what it's capable of. Zachtronics has been prolific in the genre (hence it sometimes being called Zachlike) and their games push the boundaries much further. The latest one has you hack a Gameboy-like device in one level and users have taken it so far that they've implemented their own games on that device.
Astebreed originally came out in the west at roughly the same time as Revolver 360 Re:Actor which got overlooked...
I hope it and its predecessor Revolver 360 (only widely released on XBLIG) make it to the Switch...
Also I hope Locomalito's next project is going to be Curse of Issyos EX (COI being their take on classic Castlevania).
IMO the biggest hurdle for voice acting is anime. Especially once mascots get involved, those voices are just effed up. No wonder Riki the Heropon sounds scratchy as F. Plus anime tends to go for weird ways of talking that ends up sounding all wrong in English.
