Have a good sweep!

A fabricated statement from Nintendo of America's Twitter account addressing a fictitious scenario in which the Earth's oxygen supply is presumed to be depleting at a rapid pace, leaving humanity with mere days to live. "This is Miyamoto. On behalf of everyone who is employed at Nintendo Co. LTD and its subsidiaries, we deeply mourn the countless human lives which will be lost due to the depletion of the global oxygen supply. To anyone who has ever played one of our games, we are eternally grateful to have created long-lasting fun and memories for you. To ease the suffering of families and children across the world, the Mario Kart World game for the Nintendo Switch 2 system will be available as a free download on Nintendo eShop for the foreseeable future. We hope this small gesture of kindness will ease the pain as humanity prepares for a worst-case scenario." The statement is distastefully plastered with logos for Nintendo and Nintendo Switch 2, as well as with a render of Mario from Mario Kart World.

A fabricated Twitter thread responding to the fabricated Nintendo statement. John Default Profile Picture: "No one read this statement and thought it was distasteful? Why did Miyamoto think this would help anyone?" NintenDeen: "Simple: Nintendo is so depraved that they'd exploit a global crisis to boost the player count of the failed Mario Kart World and force consumers back into the Switch 2 ecosystem to boost sales and player numbers."

A fabricated Twitter thread responding to the fabricated Nintendo statement. PlayStation Nation: "What the fuck are you doing falsely advertising sales during these trying times? I went to the website and Mario Kart World is still selling for $80 USD." Kremling Kevin: "If you actually read the statement, it clearly says the discount is available on Nintendo eShop. Meaning the application on the Switch 2 itself, not the web browser version." PlayStation Nation: "Point still stands."

A fabricated Tweet responding to the fabricated Nintendo statement. Isaboner: "Nothing for Switch 1 owners?"

Had a dream that there was global panic about the world running out of oxygen, Nintendo was the only video game company to make a statement about it, and the internet collectively spent its final hours on Earth debating whether Nintendo was being genuine or not

This was a delightful campy genre space western that turned into a campy genre space opera and for that to get two seasons, let alone five? Yeah I’d love to “fail” like that 😅.

self-restraint was a mistake

Story of this game, honestly

"It's hard for us to tell when we're saying things and when we're scheming things" is perhaps the clearest takeaway from this group play-through lol

LEAD HIM ON! LEAD HIM ON!

Whoops we were too good in bed

we chose incorrectly and I hope this does not lead to us getting poisoned, like every single misstep on this road can (and does)

Oh no nothing good will come of this

"Take it to the pub." Designers tend to design games at home, at leisure, with conditions just right. Take the game to a crowded place. Read it under poor lighting and at an arm's length. Read the book with music, food, and drink fighting for attention. Judge it under play-like conditions.

Oh for sure for sure. Saved this to my desktop so I could understand it better after watching Freien.

I now understand it.

Cover of upcoming Pathfinder Impossible Magic, featuring an elemental with five heads of differing elements battling the Pathfinder iconic magus, summoner, necromancer, and runesmith characters.

IS THAT MY CREATURE ON THE COVER???? I think that's the Totum Font, a creature I wrote for Monster Core 2! And they're BACK TO BE ON A COVER?! :> :> :>

Code Geass is like the anti-GOT here in that the strength of its ending retroactively makes me like that trainwreck second season more
