I'm sorry, I've been lazy since I cleared the school hurdle. No excuse, just living up my ability to be lazy. Also, I decided I did not like my theme and am reconsidering. I'll set a deadline of Sunday to post a new theme and signups.
The theme apparently is procrastination. :smug:

You had me excited. I thought this was going to be Stratos topic. Anyway Sunday isn't over so I am not too concerned.

Best theme around. I've used it many times.

Yeah, yeah, I know...I'm typing something up now. But I'm still wrestling with theme ideas.
Originally I was going to go a bit meta, and make it a mafia game about Switch ports. Everyone could pick a game they wanted to see come to the Switch as the townies, and the goal was to survive until the end to be selected by panic button to get ported. The mafia would be the Nintendo 1st party games who don't want to share the spotlight with quality 3rd party content. Then the killer would be limited run games, who picked random un-ported games to bring to switch, but in a limited fashion with no pre-orders or reprints.
But then I started feeling it was a little too silly. So now I'm stumped on where to go from here.

I actually like that idea. Sure, it's silly, but no sillier than a lot of the other games we've played over the years.

I could do Fire Emblem, as that has been requested in the past. I always intended to host a second World Ends With You mafia, but I'll save that for the fall when the Switch edition drops I think.

Fair enough. I'll stick with that then. I do need help picking games/roles for the townies. I have some good ones for the mafia, but selecting unported games for roles is tricky. Maybe go for notoriety or popularity? Final Fantasy 7 remake would be a good candidate. Maybe Metal Gear or Monster Hunter World?
Synopsis Players in this game will sign up as a game they would love to see ported to the Switch. All titles are welcome regardless of the legal or technical viability. Dream big! Role play as the personality you think the game exudes, or role play as a hardcore fan of that game, or as the game’s developer!
Because of the high demand for games to be ported, Panic Button has announced a drawing for games to be selected. The games lined up here are waiting to get a ticket and hear who will be selected. Some games are more desperate to be ported than others, and a few may resort to...unsavory tactics to ensure they are selected.
There are also premier Nintendo titles who do not want to share the limelight with these third-party titles. They have done their best to keep the 3rd parties away, but the runaway success of the Switch is making it more and more difficult to keep them at bay.

So should I make a new thread or is this our signups?

Make a new thread. You want to be able to actually edit in things in the OP.
