Aug 18, 2025 5:45 AM CuriousUserX90 Game: Super Mario 64 What you're referring to is the 1st power star which doesn't involve racing against a penguin.
Aug 17, 2025 12:18 PM MehDeletingLater Game: Super Mario 64 You can still get that star by walking out the door at the end of the race, it doesn't go away when this extra challenge is unlocked.
Aug 17, 2025 10:53 AM CuriousUserX90 Game: Super Mario 64 How could I over the years have forgotten that even Wet Dry World has a Vanish and Metal Cap in the same area? I never even thought to try it out for myself there like I had done at Dire Dire Docks.
Aug 17, 2025 10:45 AM CuriousUserX90 Game: Super Mario 64 If there's no additional reward for beating him, how is the 3rd power star supposed to be obtained from replaying it?
Aug 15, 2025 2:35 PM Salnax Game: Gradius I wanted to add something about the mess that is the relationship between the Gradius and Nemesis series (name changes via localization), but was unable to find enough good sources to put together something satisfactory.

Gradius = Nemesis, Salamander = Life Force, Gradius II is NOT Gradius 2, Gradius II is Vulcan Venture, Gradius 2 = Nemesis 90 Kai, Nemesis 3 is a spinoff of Gradius II, etc. A seperate Nemesis was made for the Game Boy with a direct sequel called Gradius: The Interstellar Assault, and then the two games were renamed Gradius and Gradius II a few years later in a compilation.
Jul 17, 2025 8:49 AM Salnax Game: Madden NFL 96 And the developer of that cancelled version? Visual Concepts, the future developer of the NFL 2K games.
Jul 10, 2025 4:05 PM Rocko & Heffer Game: Donkey Kong 3 I know what we're gonna do today!
Jul 9, 2025 1:24 PM * CuriousUserX90 Game: Mario Kart World Whatever the truth is in terms of the MK8BP's existence, I think the decision to do those particular sorts of 7 tracks in Mario Kart Tour were made around the same time, basically with them being made to be Switch tracks, although one of them got left out for official reasons still to be explained. Plus without the MK8BP, how else would we have seen things such as all 3 variants of each real world city track being put together? So I'm sure it was always the plan to bring Mario Kart Tour over to one of Nintendo's own systems, something they could even do with another Mario Kart game for mobile devices as well.
Jul 9, 2025 12:55 PM * CuriousUserX90 Game: Mario Kart World I'm pretty sure Mario Kart Tour is a main Mario Kart game and the 9th one whole, it's been confirmed for sometime, something that after people didn't believe it was further proven with the Mario Kart 8 Booster Pack featuring tracks introduced in that game, and anything in it like characters and items and retro tracks featured for the first time in it count as having been used in the series: https://www.deviantart.com/smash-universe/journal/Mario-Kart-Tour-News-814414626 and https://www.nintendo.co.jp/character/mario/collection/search.html#?g=series&v=mariokart

Even future Smash Bros. games having stuff from Mario Kart Tour such as music can prove it, along with what mentions and acknowledges Mario Kart Tour in the years to come (like again characters like Pauline, Hammer Bro., Monty Mole, Nabbit and Chargin Chuck aren't listed as first timers to the series in Mario Kart World). Mario Kart World is the 11th Mario Kart game whole, so of course there's been something between it and Mario Kart 8.

Jun 30, 2025 12:28 PM CuriousUserX90 Game: Super Mario Galaxy 2 This also applies to other games from the GameCube and Wii eras, but here's something which can prove my case about Yoshi's voice clips in terms of lines not from Yoshi's Story in games released before Super Mario Galaxy 2:

Jun 30, 2025 12:26 PM CuriousUserX90 Game: Mario Kart World What exactly are these Moby Games? And here's a comparison with his voice clips:

Jun 25, 2025 3:49 AM 2L84U Game: Mario Kart World He's not listed in the credits on Moby Games (only Japanese VA listed appears to be Junji Kitajima, best known for playing the bad guy in Victory Gundam) doesn't say who voiced Yoshi tho as the VAs are not credited to their specific characters. Only way to know may be to go from one name to another and compare the Wonder Yoshi lines to their previous work.
Jun 19, 2025 4:26 AM CuriousUserX90 Game: Donkey Kong Bananza So they're having Pauline in a game of DK's sub series, despite being a Mario character, and one to list as such in the Smash Bros. series, plus DK has a love interest in the form of Candy Kong. Though to be fair stuff from Mario games have shown up in games of DK's sub series on rare occasions, for instance with the Urchin enemies.
Jun 15, 2025 11:05 AM CuriousUserX90 Game: Mario Kart World So Kazumi Totaka really is exceeding Charles Martinet with his character. It seemed so certain that Yoshi has a new VA thanks to how his voice sounded in Super Mario Bros. Wonder, which does not sound like we heard as far back as Yoshi's Story.
Jun 14, 2025 11:53 AM starryvirus Game: Deltarune she's such a goober bro I love susei
Jun 13, 2025 7:37 AM CuriousUserX90 Franchise: Pokémon Remind me if this only applies to a single generation or all generations featuring Rotom. I had forgotten how things were with games I played where I actually managed to obtain a Rotom.
Jun 13, 2025 7:23 AM CuriousUserX90 Franchise: Pokémon I don't suppose these Pokemon ever did anything in Legends Arceus that's another connection to the Triforce.
Jun 10, 2025 6:37 AM CuriousUserX90 Franchise: Kirby Guess this explains games like Kirby Triple Deluxe in terms of the additional info that get added sometime this year.
Jun 10, 2025 6:34 AM CuriousUserX90 Franchise: Metroid Next Level Games did still do a Metroid game somewhere down the line however, but it probably isn't what eventually became Metroid Prime: Federation Force.
Jun 10, 2025 6:32 AM CuriousUserX90 Franchise: Metroid Something which Samus would later be able to do without her power suit, both in Metroid games and in Smash Bros..
Jun 9, 2025 1:36 PM CuriousUserX90 Franchise: Mario Yet games between Mario Bros. and Super Mario Bros. 2 like of course the original Super Mario Bros. still have Mario wearing a blue shirt and red overalls. Could've sworn 1988 is when it started with the colour switch.
Jun 9, 2025 9:17 AM MehDeletingLater Franchise: Mario No, the Mario Bros. arcade game was the first game where he wore that.

Jun 9, 2025 8:49 AM CuriousUserX90 Franchise: Mario I don't think any other NES games have had Mario without his hat.
Jun 9, 2025 8:41 AM CuriousUserX90 Franchise: Mario Super Mario Bros. 2 is the first game to have Mario with a red shirt and blue overalls right? Despite what artwork shows.
Jun 6, 2025 8:30 PM Endrogg Platform: Nintendo Switch 2 So basically Nintendo wants to conform to the status quo now and leave the innovation to the developers, and what the consumers get is an over-designed GameBoy that's just now getting games that's been on the PS5 for years. Better late than never...
Jun 3, 2025 11:47 AM * CuriousUserX90 Game: Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep They can still do The Jungle Book related things without King Louie, for one with the film's sequel, and those other instances of stuff The Jungle Book related from the 21st century, except for the Rhythm n Groove video game which is King Louie's most recent appearance in anything to date, aside from the live action reboot.
Jun 3, 2025 11:40 AM CuriousUserX90 Game: Mario Kart World I still like to believe that it was always the plan for Mario Kart Tour content to be brought to Nintendo's own system, which it was in the form of the Mario Kart 8 Booster Pack. I would also like to believe that Diddy Kong and Kamek as other characters who could've been in Mario Kart 8 on the Wii U if not for time constraints were intended to be DLC in the Switch port somewhere down the line, after not being in the base game due to the decision with making the different genders of Villager and Inkling be separate slots
May 28, 2025 11:25 PM Rocko & Heffer Game: Ena: Dream BBQ I haven't played or seen anything from Dream BBQ, but having seen everything else Ena-related... yeah, that sounds like the ideal way to voice direct for an Ena game.
May 24, 2025 7:28 AM Rocko & Heffer Game: Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep I would assume it's due to King Louie effectively being banned from Disney content due to a lawsuit over TaleSpin.

May 23, 2025 11:35 PM Rocko & Heffer Game: Namco Gallery Vol. 1 Something interesting I'm not sure really warrants mention, but I'm pretty sure this version of Mappy is the only time he's ever had a Mickey Mouse-style muzzle. Looking at a comparison video, the NEC PC-6001 version comes the closest, but looks more like a muppet mouth with it just being a very thin line above his teeth - but that's not accounting for all the other Mappy games and his cameos in other Namco games. (Hell, the Game Boy Mappy design could be just as easily interpreted as some kind of 90s-cartoon underbite)
May 19, 2025 5:12 PM Salnax Game: Dragon Ball FighterZ 10 million sold as of 2023, making it one of the best-selling Dragon Ball or Fighting games of all time.
May 4, 2025 2:36 AM MehDeletingLater Game: Home Alone 2: Lost in New York You're right, the NES versions of both games were developed by Imagineering. The Angry Video Game Nerd episode cited in this submission was wrongly claiming the publishers (Acclaim and THQ) were the developers. The sound comparison before that error happens is still accurate so I'll leave that as is, but I added another source that ties both games together, thank you for reporting this.
May 4, 2025 1:43 AM Salnax Game: Home Alone 2: Lost in New York I thought they were both developed by Imagineering?
Apr 29, 2025 9:51 PM Rocko & Heffer Game: Glover Plok, Croc, and Glover - they seem to have all had the same thing going on at one point... and a very disappointing rhyme structure.
Apr 25, 2025 9:13 AM * CuriousUserX90 Game: Super Smash Bros. for Wii U I don't see why they couldn't offer any additional Masterpieces in later updates, like say after Wii U virtual console started to offer Nintendo 64 games, none of which included the original Smash Bros. apparently for some reason.
Apr 22, 2025 7:17 AM CuriousUserX90 Game: Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep I might actually have an idea as to why The Jungle Book world wasn't in the final game, it comes from there being something similar that got featured. Here's to there being something for The Jungle Book at some point either way, but it'll take a game that doesn't focus on worlds from a specific era of Disney for it to be included.
Apr 19, 2025 11:14 AM CuriousUserX90 Game: Sonic Generations One couldn't possibly be able to eat an entire island whole I can assure.
Apr 7, 2025 4:37 AM CuriousUserX90 Game: Donkey Kong Atleast these days the modern DK has Candy whilst Mario has Peach. Though to be fair the original Donkey Kong is who became Cranky Kong, who even has a wife of his own, sadly now deceased.
Apr 6, 2025 7:15 AM CuriousUserX90 Game: Donkey Kong Bananza I still like to believe that this Donkey Kong game was in the works for the Switch, only to have development redone for Nintendo's next system following an incident I prefer to not speak of. Didn't seem like a good move overall with Donkey Kong Bonanza not being on the Switch, especially after all the Switch had in terms of DK's sub series was re-releases of both games developed by Retro Studios. Overall we certainly got our hopes up after King K Rool's inclusion in Ultimate made it seem like a new game where the Kremlings make a comeback was in the works, along with the Mario Movie having all those kongs.
