    Even as a joke "something-gate" is so played out it's just tiring now. The actual use of appending -gate to the end of a controversy is annoying enough and it's been happening so long even making fun of it is old hat.

    Yeah. Now we append -ghazi to the end of shit.

    I remember back in the Wii days when the release of every sonic game had the 'will this be the renaissance of sonic?' narrative

    and there were always the die hards who would run to the forum and be like 'THEY'VE DONE IT THIS TIME GUYS'

    it was exactly the same cycle for like 5 games

    Eh, it's separated by a minigame where you find out the five fun guys are part of a scam being run by the toad who says the shufflegate line. They introduce the Five Fun Guys, you expose the deception with a minigame, and that's when the toad says the shufflegate line.

    In context it reads just as much as a reference as out of context if you're familiar with what it was accused of referencing.

    Ugh. Well now I'm back to being disappointed in Nintendo.

    So are they going to remove it now?

    The voice talent for the new edition of ROM is a fuckin a plus gang

    Cool, I finished ROM earlier in the week and it's real good

    Wonder if they'll make a separate edition for the VO on PC

    I believe they've said that PC owners get it as a free update.

    to be fair they're introduced before that in a different minigame where you find them in a hide and seek game.

    in practice it's apparently very light on actual puzzle solving and amounts to something more like an intricate visual novel

    That's right, Snake. Body snatchers. That's why we've brought in someone else... a man from a dark future, with no human body for those bastards to snatch.

    Counterpoint. Space Quest 6 is amazing. The sheer number of scifi author puns in the liquor store alone is staggering.

    It's a devil may cry style action game where your main weapon is a baby that you swing around using the umbilical cord that is still attached to you. Besides on the flash forward missions where the baby is black goop that you direct using nanomachines while listening to man-eater.

    No I don't.

    Also that Sierra unbeatable thing is a bit blown out of proportion. It was only a couple of the early games that were like that. As a Sierra kid, those games really just taught you to save a bunch and learn from the deaths.

    Terrible game development decisions can't be blown out of proportion enough when they cause you to lose hours and hours of valuable gaming time that otherwise could have been spent on Lemmings or Heroes of Might and Magic.

    As a LucasArts kid, I remember going to a friends house and playing some King's Quest and thinking it was some bullshit

    Not only did you die constantly and need to restart from your save point, the writing was corny and terrible

    I somewhat enjoyed a King's Quest when I was younger

    I'm not sure what number it was, but the subtitle was Heir Today, Gone Tomorrow

    I never got too far in it though, felt like I probably needed a guide or something
