Captain N's Pixlbit Q/A Extravaganza!


Posted on 02/28/2022 at 02:18 AM | Filed Under Blogs

I 100%ed Super Mario 64 back in the day. I have it as part of SM3D All-Stars now, as well as the version on NSO.

Sounds like a precursor to the Balloon Trip mode of Balloon Fight.

OST So Good! #15: Mario Kart 8

Mario Kart 8 really does have excellent music. Several of the themes above are my favorites. I also like the remastered N64 Rainbow Road (MK64 was my first Mario Kart), and the remastered Grumble Volcano.

I think this might be an Arcade Archives title.

I got my sister Carcassonne (the board game) years ago. Me, I'd just like a video game version of Mouse Trap or Stratego.

Episode 217: BIGGER.


Posted on 02/18/2022 at 02:06 AM | Filed Under Feature

I got DA: Inquisition the year it came out, when it was on sale at Gamestop for $30 new. The opening was rough enough that I didn't make it very far in the game before I gave up. Having a big move across the country to deal with didn't help matters much. I have never been able to get into BioWare. For western RPGs, I'm more into Bethesda, CD Projekt, and Obsidian. There really was too much busywork involved that got in the way of the game.

Cage Match:

Area 51 took one look at the fight card, started whimpering, and just curled up on the floor and died. Dragon Quest XI shrugged and went back to making sweet love to many beautiful ladies atop a big pile of money. After the good morning music played, the innkeeper said, " *: You were sure up late!"

Meanwhile, Sauron from Primal Rage, having been told he would be facing a plumber and expecting an easy win against John from Plumbers Don't Wear Ties, entered the ring, a floating platform. He saw Mario, began laughing hysterically before dissolving into tears, and immediately started swinging himself around by his own tail. His last words as he flung himself on top of one of the spiked bombs at the edge of the ring were, "So long, a-Sauron!" Mario then went to the royal bedroom where he found out that the cake Peach had promised was in fact a giant cake with Peach inside of the cake in a negligee. As an extra surprise for Mario, Peach brought in Mayor Pauline, who was finally ready to make up with Mario after they divorced and Mario got together with Peach. (Cue the heart wipe with the "wipe" sound from Super Mario World.)

I was honestly kind of rooting for Primal Rage against such lower-tier contenders as Quest 64, Clayfighter, and Plumbers Don't Wear Ties. I enjoyed Primal Rage in the arcades, during the peak of the blood-soaked Western fighting game craze, alongside games such as Killer Instinct, Time Killers, and Way of the Warrior. But against Mario?

After listening to the part about Treasure of Nadia, NWP turned into a hardcore sex podcast so gradually I didn't even notice.

OST So Good! #11: The Legend of Zelda- Skyward Sword


Posted on 02/16/2022 at 11:47 AM | Filed Under Blogs

Skyward Sword had lovely artistic flair as far as the visuals and the musicsl score, and great dungeon design, but it definitely had issues. The HD version rectifies a lot of these problems and even allows you to play with the Pro Controller if you don't want to use the Joycons. With the flaws mitigated, the many good qualities Skyward Sword has stand out more. 

BaD #15: Wii U and 3DS eShop shutting down


Posted on 02/16/2022 at 11:43 AM | Filed Under Blogs

The 3DS and Wii U have been off the market for years. It's costing Nintendo more to keep the lights on than they're making in sales. Same thing with the freak out over the VIta storefront closing. People don't care until they hear the plug is being pulled, then they panic even though very few of them have visited the old storefront.

Is Space Dungeon in any of these collections?

I don't play on my phone either. I never really liked touch screen controls in gaming, and the mobile gaming market is pretty much a sewer of micro transaction druven pay to win games. Even the "good" mobile games aren't all that good when there are much better choices elsewhere. I tend to agree with Jim Stephanie Sterling on the whole issue.
