While the buttons are now labeled ABXY and LR, the face buttons are in a different configuration: B on the left, A at the bottom, X on the right and Y at the top.

Funnily enough, the earliest iteration of the Super Famicom that we know of (from 1988) DID use ABCD, as well as E and F for the shoulder buttons! Both got changed into the ABXY and LR buttons we're familiar with by 1989, though with a different configuration. The final form took shape by 1990.

He's also far from the only indie dev like that; ZUN for example has the same mindset and so the only Touhou games with official English releases are spin-offs and fangames. He fully approves fan translations, he just (understandably) doesn't want his name officially attached to text he cannot read.

Toby simply wants his personal work to be fully checked and approved by him when presented as an official translation of what we wrote, and the only languages he's familiar with are EN/JP.
I can't blame him for it when there are plenty of horror stories out there like Silksong's Chinese translation.

One time I did some research and found out that the name "Douglas Jay Falcon" was seemingly just made up by random Wikipedia editors and wasn't ever actually in the (unarchived and lost media) F-Zero X website to begin with.
I feel devastated every time I think about it.

"Once upon a time, there lived two Luma twins named Mari and Luu."

"Under the care of the Comet Witch, they lived happy together with many friends."

Mari/マリ and Luu/ルー seem to be puns on Mario/マリオ and Luigi/ルイージ. The furigana explicitly calls them Lumas. And "Comet Witch" is obviously Rosalina.

Sketch of my OCs that I'm too lazy to color.

Maybe I'll do it later.

Been working on this game these last few years and we had a solid showing at PAX but needless to say we're not doing as well as we'd hoped and we're going to refocus how we advertise it ASAP but please check it out in the meantime!

"The Definitive List of Unused Fighters in Smash" is an all-timer that I can't count the amount of times I've gone back to in order to double-check my knowledge or correct misinformation.
Its publishing was also highly important for correcting all the baseless rumors that had spread over the years.

We're not in theoretical "they could come after sfw queer content LATER" territory anymore. It is being used to come after sfw queer content NOW.

Spread this around, send the article to any and every news outlet/content creator you can think of. The alarms need to be sounded

And KEEP CALLING

I'd recommend leveling up your clap range and your movement abilities before anything else. I've played through nearly the entire game now without having leveled up punch strength once and I haven't felt a need to. Level up health whenever you feel it necessary.

I chose not to give it a like

After an eternity I finally shut up and made another Metroid Dread art piece in this style.

Most of the internet used to be like this. This is actually the default, it took companies enclosing the internet and adding weird, soul-killing incentives to make people behave the way they do now. In a way, there is truly nothing special about Wikipedia except that it survived longer.

Gunpla model kit of HGUC 1/144 The-O from Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam, panel lined and with painting done for the missing colors.

HG The O is done!
Very impressive for something that came out in 2002. While it still needed work to look perfect, for its time the mold is incredibly well-made and the parts separation is top notch. The articulation is shockingly decent too.
This is a model kit that really stood the test of time.

To briefly touch on Honkai: Star Rail's Amphoreus arc, which I've also been watching my friend play:
It's just been a boring and poorly written rethread of HI3rd's Elysian Realm arc. We've now dropped Star Rail altogether because of it.
As a dropped game, I won't count it for the media thread. [4/3]

The incredibly cool final boss of the arc was the cherry on top of the whole ride.
HI3rd Part 2 has been extremely enjoyable after its initial growing pains (in sharp contrast to how bad Honkai: Star Rail has now become).
I can't wait to see what awaits our favorite lesbians in the future. [3/3]

This was yet another absolutely amazing story arc, as I've come to expect from Honkai Impact 3rd's Part 2.
Helia and Coralie have now firmly established themselves as worthy successors to the original protagonists and have joined them as being among some of my favorite characters of all time. [2/3]

26. Honkai Impact 3rd (Part 2)

Another game I didn't play myself, but one I've been continously watching my friend play through and stream for the last two years.
Having now wrapped up a major story arc, I figured it's a good time to add it to this year's media thread. [1/3]

25. Hero of Law

The Ocarina of Time modding scene continues to be fucking insane.
Incredibly cool ROM hack clearly made out of massive love for both Ace Attorney and Zelda. Genuinely fantastic work.
I hope they follow up on the teases and make more cases, because I'd absolutely love to see more!

24. The Super Mario Bros. Movie

I finally watched it and it's actually good?????
Not exactly some sort of mindblowing peak fiction or anything, but that was a really good family movie and pretty much a perfect adaptation of Mario to the movie format.
I have no real complaints.

I got bad news that my primary job (not SG) is restructuring and because of that my role isn't required anymore 😔 So I am rather suddenly looking for a new job!

I was a Senior PR Accounts Manager, but I'm happy to try something new!

If you hear of or have any openings please let me know. 🙇

I hate this.

Never let Studio Khara touch Gundam again.

23. Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX

I watched it.

HAPPY PRIDE MONTH! I'M NOT LATE YET RIGHT?
