    the guest waw Dan Howell (from Dan & Phil) at the show I went to. The second half which he was in was entirely just a scripted bit about how much he secretly hated Phil.

    That sounds pretty different, Jschlatt was at mine and it was mostly him pretending to be aggressively conservative and insulting other YouTubers.

    Except they kept being sidetracked by the crowd getting them to chug water bottles lol

    If you're interested in seeing some clips, I got together most of my videos here:
    You know, know that I've played Sonic it's making me sort of dissatisfied with Mario's comparatively blander level themes. The New Super series, sure, but even classic games don't give their levels particularly interesting or distinct identities- Marble Zone, Spring Yard Zone, etc. has way more character than 1-1, 1-2, or even say, Donut Plains.

    Like, you call it Donut Plains but it's basically a normal grassland area. Why not do something more interesting with that and have actual donuts floating around... or something? Mario Kart does a comparatively better job at this, tbh

    3D Mario, of course, is a different story altogether. They don't have this problem except for the two when they tried to make it 2D but the 3D was the 2... D.

    Anyways, this a roundabout way of me saying I, so far, much prefer Sonic's stronger focus on world building, environmental storytelling, and distinct characters. Mario is much more tightly designed, but I find that to be less and less engaging for me personally these days.
    Childhood for me was literally everyone having a Wii and getting to play Mario Kart Wii, NSMBW, Wii Fit, etc. at my grandparents' house. Fun times, though they've all gotten rid of them by now unfortunately

    I was born in 08, so my younger childhood was caught in that transitionary period between gen 7 and gen 8 consoles.

    It went from the Wii being everywhere to mobile games as the next big thing and Nintendo becoming less culturally relevant after the Wii U flopped. Still played a lot of 3DS though. Then the Switch got popular while I was in middle school

    Anyways this is the first new console drop I actually care about since I was literally 9

    Yeah, I was still young when the Switch came out and I had never played Nintendo before. This is the first Nintendo console that I'm actually experiencing the release of

    @Blitzo The Wii and all that are still played by retro gamers today; it's by no means irrelevant or defunct. And a lot of retro gamers are playing even OLDER consoles like the NES and the SNES.
    Hot take: the car in Mario Party was a perfectly fine gimmick. As someone whose first Mario Party game was 10 I find it much more tolerable than most

    I agree, my first Mario Party game was Mario Party 9 and I never minded it really.

    I agree, having all players restricted to staying within a vehicle throughout the boards in Mario Party 9 and 10 (And maybe other MP games past 10, though I don't really have a good track record on that front) makes things a bit more fair compared to previous installments of the series. As someone who has only played Mario Party 5, I can speak from experience that it can be rather tedious to have to race other players/CPUs to the Star, so the car gimmick really evened out the odds.
    Back from Norway. Visited Longyearben, the northernmost permanent settlement with over 1000 people, and Tromso. Saw exceptionally good northern lights when none of us expected to and had a crab burger. Tasty.
