Adding onto this, publishers may be passing them along to indie devs because they want something smaller made.

I had a really interesting chat today with a game creator who casually admitted that a popularly cited piece of trivia about their series is totally fabricated. They just made it up on the spot decades ago because they were bored and it has been repeated ever since. Hilarious.

Folks started leaving because they felt uncomfortable staying, so they decided to transfer ownership of the server, which is why it

30.01.2026 23:58 — 👍 10 🔁 3 💬 0 📌 0Not a Patron but I guess the Rayman stuff is about the Anniversary edition that was rated as well as the rumors of there being a remake of Rayman Legends being in the works despite Ubisoft Milan hiring for a 3D game, which caused speculation of a “Rayman Legends 3D”.
30.01.2026 18:59 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Without the ability to say too much, please understand that $30 for full-cart Switch 2 physicals is not normal, and cannot/will not be the norm.
It is "too good to be true" pricing, being price-matched to SW1/PS5. Don't blame those (i.e. everyone) that have to price above this.
FYI 🚨 i'm hearing from a GameStop source that Nintendo has officially lowered the MSRP for Rosalina and Lumas, Mario and Luma, and Meta Knight & Shadow Star amiibo
$39.99 -> $34.99
$49.99 ->$44.99
Thoughts on Puyo Puyo Tetris 2S: I like it… when I’m not playing Tetris. When I am, I stink.

Kinda bizarre a made-up food could be made in real life. Then again, someone made a recipe for Bubble Bass’ order in that one SpongeBob episode.
