Seriously, @BowserBasher, @Ike, one of you has to change.

Room's open now.

Yeah, I had my fill with the 3DS version. Not going through that grindy mess again.

They missed a trick not making Bayonetta the character you fight against for the Gruntilda spirit fight.

Well, I said I would. Gonna give a shout-out to @Vileplume2000 who showed interest. But tonight is Mario Kart/Super Smash Bears night, so if you can't do it during the afternoon, I can wait until another day.

You do realise Smash WiiU happened a while back, right?

Righty-o! Wasn't expecting to say this quite so soon after heroic shenanigan night but... Who's up for getting some animals together and forcing them to fight each other for laughs? 9pm, Time Matches. I bagsies Polar Bear Banjo!

Am I really gonna buy a Mii costume for an Undertale remix in Smash? Yes, yes I am. And you all should as well. Megalovania is a fantastic piece of music. Helps that it's one of the better looking costumes. You can barely tell it's a Mii. Anyway, the DLC ride never ends! Banjo's gonna force a new horizontal line, so they need to fill that up anyway. Although it does totally screw up the scoring system in the prediction thread now that I don't know how many characters there'll be...

Tokyo Mirage Sessions with new content!? Sign me the fuck up! Secretly the best game on WiiU.

It's funny because it's true. Even Pokémon has decided that the actual Pokémon are less gacha-able than the actual trainers now.

I've got a real feeling that Banjo will be added to Smash a short time after this direct. Not a shadow drop, but like, within a week. Just a gut feeling, mind.

Fair points, @Sheikah and @Ronnie, but he did say "everything" which makes me...

No they didn't.

So I've played the first two chapters. Very much enjoyed it, but I can just tell I won't be able to play it for long periods of time at risk of getting a headache from all the concentration. I do have a couple of complaints though. The camera is really unwieldy. I can't get a handle on it and I find myself accidently moving the camera up or down when I just want to spin it around. Maybe it needs more of a dead spot on it. My other issue is that I'm finding it really hard to tell when an enemy is about to attack. In Bayonetta, I found it really noticeable when an enemy is about to throw a punch along with the distinct sound they made. Here though, I can't see a visual cue for enemies due to a quite subtle effect on attacks and the sheer amount of lighting only serves to hide it further. Everything else is great though.

Someone at Nintendo ballsed up and officially leaked the company that owns one of the future DLC characters we don't know about. Keep those reactions in spoilers, please.

Don't you lot ever accuse me of being unable to show impartiality. With the final article up, I'm now gonna thank everyone who nominated and voted for games and gave their thoughts on them throughout the past 22 weeks. Couldn't have done it without you and now we finally have a consensus on what are the best games for all eternity. Hooray for world peace! But big massive thanks to @S.C.G for being the guy behind getting the damn articles up in the first place. I might have written them, but I still don't know how to get them on the site. Also, he made those nifty game banners. Speaking of banners, gonna thank @RedShell for taking care of the article banners and sidebox images. Those sidebox images are worth looking at, there's some gold in there. And finally, thanks to @Dcubed for arguing with me over what restrictions should be placed on each console. You would not believe how much we disagreed on Link's Awakening DX.

At some point you have to draw the line and punish people for being completely insane. I've finally made a new level. Weeks with no inspiration and then @Dcubed said something stupid and I immediately had the concept down. Oscar worthy story telling in this one. I'll wait patiently for my reward.

It's like the opposite of that "Can I pet the dog?" Twitter account.

Hope you don't mind the GP3 results being above the GP2 ones. Uses less space. Been a while since I pointed out that these results are before recalculation and don't include any Champion's Bonuses. Next League Night: 5th September 8pm Room 1: @BowserBasher is host @Glen-i @BowserBasher @viceview51 @martinist @RedShell Good news! I finally got off of my butt and redone all of the character squares. No more renders of characters on karts, slick face icons for everyone! I've even got seperate squares for each of the different Yoshies and Shy Guys for any future use. All the font has been homogenised as well, so no random white font for no reason. I've also done the same with the font for the vehicle part squares. Shut up, it totally matters! Sign up Now!

It's like you people love wasting Red Shells! Anyway, @Dcubed...

Well, at least it's not a September release.
