So... in the weirdest and unlikeliest crossover yet... free Witcher 3 skins for Daemon X Machina.
Wut?

How Gradius III is currently on neither the Classic or Online Service boggles my mind.

An omission that really annoys me is Super Mario All-Stars. Absolutely no reason not to have it when all the games in it are already available in the NES set anyway, it's just a way better port of them.

Nintendo in general has a weird relationship with All Stars. They won't release it on the Virtual Console or Nintendo Online, but they will strip it apart for the Advance series and slap it on a Wii disc and charge you 30 plus dollars for it. Few other titles are emblematic of the company's stubborn tendencies about its library quite like that one.

Though the Wii version should have had the version with World on it. Really just kind of relates to Nintendo's generally acting like nostalgia ends at Super Mario World and F-Zero. Like, I guess I get it with 1 (though personally I also prefer the All Stars version of it) but for 2 and 3 for me the NES versions have always just felt like, "The games, but uglier and with worse sound and more flickering enemies," because the All Stars versions are the defining ones for me.

What's odd is that given both 2 and 3 basically have the All-Stars versions for the Advance ports so, Nintendo seemed to think the same thing, at least at one point. SNES sprite work in general feels so timeless; its telling that of the various games in the SNES Classic list, few were ever remade, and there's only one (Mega Man X) that had a remake that significantly altered the visuals (and the original still considered the definitive version over Maverick Hunter).

They didn’t even update the controller instructions, it was just a straight ROM dump. Usually when they do something like that, they at least add some bonuses to it like the Kirby set.

I think they had clearly learned some lessons from the Mario release when they released the Kirby set. It had way more games, and was available in way higher numbers. It was easy to find that on the shelf, Mario I had to go on a wait list.

Every now and then I get it in my idiot mind to try doing Classic 9.9 with the characters I haven't done it with yet and I really need to just stop f***ing trying. I find Ultimate's AI so infuriating that it really just takes me to some very dark, self-loathing places where I hate the entire f***ing planet and myself most of all from trying to do bullshit like Simon or Mario's busted-ass ones.
In general Classic in this game is a total mess because the difficulty isn't at all equivalent from one to the next. Like, for every utter cakewalk like Ryu's or Bowser's, you have something like Mario's where I think doing the Koopalings part without dying is literally impossible.

Yeah, I've kind of hit the point of thinking Vergeben is at this point just making shit up or going off not entirely reliable information given how ridiculously specific yet not just outright saying it his latest claim is. {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}Basically individually ruled out pretty much every video game company anybody cares about besides Sony. Said it definitely isn't Nintendo, Sega, Konami, Capcom, Microsoft, Namco, Spike Chunsoft, Level-5, Square, Activision, EA, and like 20 others. Like, if you're going to go into THAT much detail ruling shit out then just say it. Especially given if it is that one left standing then it's very obvious which character it would be.

Either way, fingers crossed for Carmen Sandiego.

So apparently Vergeben shot down all of the Tales rumors so now people've hitched themselves to a leak back at the start of October that correctly said Terry's release date and claimed the fifth character was... {Spoiler}{Spoiler}Phoenix Wright. I really, really think the person just got lucky... but I would love that if it's somehow true. Didn't that get shot to hell with the Game Awards "leak" with stuff like a Crash Bash remake and something called Banjo-Redooie? Honestly, the fifth character is just going to be something that will just be whatever happens at this rate.

Vergeben usually more wrong then right when it comes to leak. Stuff like minecraft in smash, starfox racing, switch port of Metriod trilogy plus other. There was also that nintendo direct that he was 100% wrong on as well. Vergeben had a couple lucky guesses which cause people to think he was this massive insider when he actually not.

The Smash community has turned into one giant game of “Guess Who”.
At this point I’m expecting Vergeben to announce that the new character has blond hair.
