I wouldn’t worry about it too much. Have fun! I’m sorry for discouraging you!!! Read more

I just plain changed it to his actual name, to avoid confusion. Fewer people know him by his actual name than his handle, but I’d rather avoid offending anyone needlessly. Read more

I think he said that he found the Mario Party versions, not the original versions? Read more

No slopes, unfortunately. Read more

Academy of Commerce strikes me as the sort of name for a college-level education. The characters still look pretty young, though, yes. That’s anime for ya, I guess. Read more

Probably a few days after release, depending on how common they are (for all we know, they might not be!) - If they are, though, I’ll write a round-up. Read more

It seems to me that some stuff you can only use if you purchase Amiibo, but maybe I just haven’t done everything yet. Now, I know how this sounds. But it’s worth mentioning that the game has an ABSURD number of costumes, and not having access to some of them still leaves you with a big number of them. Read more

Mario Maker comes with dozens of levels created by Nintendo itself. Read more

I’m not suggesting they waited this long because they’re overprotective! Just that they’re overprotective, and so for them to hand over their bread and butter is really generous, if not a bit heartfelt. Read more

That would be amazing! Read more

Please click the link, people!! Read more

I’m hoping they take this concept and use it for their other franchises, yeah! Read more

I think there’s a huge difference between “here’s a thing you can use to make Mario art” and “OK, now you can build entire actual levels.” One feels more detached than the other, at least to me. Read more

Yes, I’m very excited for what this game will mean for kids who are interested in game design. Read more

How do you know? You tried fucking a ghost before? Maybe you were doing it wrong. Read more

That’s next on the docket! Read more

I just think it flattens talk of this game a little bit, that’s all. I’d hate for it to become defined by a different game when it does enough of its own thing. Read more

I heard this, but never personally saw it—every time I saw the ghost lady I turned the fuck around, lmao Read more
