    This all seems like a Mario parody movie than a real Mario movie. It's going to be a farce imo.

    I mean I hope it's a farce. I feel like the only way a Mario movie could be entertaining would for it to be farcical.

    I'm expecting the most paint-by-numbers trailer where every beat and joke was already predicted online, but is ultimately "fine, I guess".

    Charlie Day as Luigi is quietly the one I'm looking forward to

    Start off with the joke where Mario sounds like he normally does (which would be the Charles Martinet cameo) and then he clears his throat and it's Pratt. I fuckin' dare you, Illumination.

    The final shot of the movie is Mario returning home and telling a mysterious figure that the plan was a success and everyone believed him to be Mario, which means that now he (the figure) can safely retire from the legacy of Mario and open that pizza place like he's always wanted.

    Mysterious figure steps into the light and it's Sungwon Cho with a fake mustache. "Let's-a-go," he says.

    Credits roll

    The biggest bummer to me is there just won’t be time to breath. The Mario in my head has more in common with Moomins or Studio Ghibli than Minions.

    Bought Splatoon 3! Loving it!! But I'm also having some brutal connectivity issues

    Sounds like this is something common right now? Is there anything I can do beyond waiting for them to get resolved via an upcoming patch? I want to play the gaaaaaaame

    Only thing you can really do on your end is play docked and use a USB LAN adapter, if you have one

    It's especially rough this weekend because everyone is online for then splatfest, which both makes it so that the servers are getting taxed harder than usual and also slowing down match making cuz it's gotta pair you with an opposing team

    If it's really giving you a hard time it might be a good time to focus on the campaign instead?

    This happened in Splatoon 2 if I recall. And there was also an algorithm that would see someone disconnecting multiple times in succession and auto-ban them for a bit from online play because it wasn't programmed to differentiate between network issues and intentional disconnections.

    yeah that's just a standard nintendo online thing, smash has the exact same system

    I meant to buy it a day or two ago so I'd get it for the splatfest but I forgot

    I hope I like it

    UPDATE: so far I like it more than 2, which I only played for like 15 hours or so
    I still can't fucking aim at all, but I bought the Octobrush which works
    Also the fact that Salmon Run isn't on a completely stupid limited time schedule makes it so much better, still can't stand the map rotation system though. Also I'm just getting fucking steamrolled in Turf War, it feels like there's 0 skill matchmaking and it's very unfun a lot of the time.

    releasing it on one console maybe wasn't the best idea then?

    it was a really bad game, that probably didn't help

    platinumgames is one of those companies that both A) sometimes goes down really bad game design paths and B) gets forced to do really stupid things by their publishers like Square-Enix, and frankly it's a miracle that their successes have been big enough to keep them afloat through that

    My understanding is that Bayo 2 and 3 wouldn't exist without Nintendo's funding.

    that is correct, that's why Bayo is a nintendo exclusive now, they paid for it

    babylon's fall, however, was paid for by Squeenix, so ask them about the platform decisions

    Nintendo has been funding a lot of Platinum's most fun projects. (see: Astral Chain)

    But Platinum is oftentimes just as responsible for their whiffs as their hits so I can only imagine what ratio of Platinum and of publisher meddling happened to make Babylon's Fall come out the way it did.

    Square is fuckin mercenary when it comes to platform exclusivity decisions. You give them a bag of honey roasted peanuts and they'll make your game exclusive for years bro.
