Helmsly

I've never played this game but I love its soundtrack. I think I've listened to this particular track about 30 times already

aww man, that's sad new. I felt I had to listen to him singing in Happy Gilmore as soon as I heard about it:

International trailer is different:

I believe that is correct. My Nintendo 64 was imported from America, so I had the US version of Star Fox 64, but i remember reading the reviews for it the PAL/ Lylat Wars release and being surprised that they had gone to the extra effort to make it run better. They also added an extra unlockable that wasn't the other versions where you can make the characters sound how they did back in the snes game:

Aonuma and Myamoto were at the park recently:

Well, hopefully the legacy content will still be available in some way. I can't imagine it all going to Netflix (there's over 15,000 different things to watch on the network) but maybe WWE will just start uploading it all to youtube, which they've been kinda doing recently as well as live streaming old Royal Rumbles in the current lead up to this weekend PPV.

Crazy stuff. I wonder what happens to the WWE Network then? It would be a shame if all that archive content outside of the just disappeared. I love going back and watching random old WWE shows from the 80's like Prime Time Wrestling. Anyway, this is an amazing deal for WWE.

Golden Sun and Golden Sun lost age are on the way. January 17th

Pretty cool to see stuff still being added to this game 5 years on

I had the theme tune to 'Allo 'Allo in my head the other day and found this, which I absolutely love:

and of course... i frigging overslept and missed tonight races

oh man, it's Thursday already?!

A few posters for the upcoming Ghostbusters movie just came out:

Yeah, Lego Fortnite is pretty good. The first day that it came out i gave it a go and then a good four and a half hours later and I was still playing and wasn't aware how much time had past. It's quite a feat that they made Lego versions of so many of skins. My friend and I attempted to make an ewok treetop village but it didn't quite work out... The racing game is a lot of fun too, i finally got my first win last night!. I also like the Rock Band mode they added, but its not possible to play that on a Pro Controller as some songs will ask you to press Left and Right on the D-pad at the same time. I use the Joycons for that mode and it plays fine though.

First game this year: Tetris 99 Games played: 55 Total time: 1,476 hours Most played: Fortnite: 962 hours. Ghostbusters Spirits Unleashed : 136 hours. Zelda Tears of a Kingdom : 82 hours It is crazy to me that a year ago I had not played Fortnite outside of trying it out a few times back when it first came out on the Switch. Then randomly, on Boxing day last year, i felt like playing it. I had a weird nostalgia for a game I'd played maybe three times, 4 years ago. It was good timing too as Epic had recently added a lot of content as well as No Build mode, which was perfect for someone like me that found that aspect a little daunting to get used to. Before I knew it, I'd played a few hours and was enjoying it so I mentioned it to a friend. He wanted to give it a try too so he got online and by chance a friend of his mentioned he started playing as well. We played more games and won a few times and pretty quickly we were having a blast with it. We were so surprised to find out what this game is actually like compared to the assumptions we'd made about it. Pretty quickly we were saying to each other how it was the most fun we'd had in an online video game for a very long time, playing for a couple of hours a day. We could not believe it. I'll never convince people that have never played Fortnite and assume its bad, to give it a go, but I genuinely think it's fantastic. The way they update the map and keep the game fresh is one of the best things I've seen in any online game. Each new Chapter they roll out every 3/4 months basically makes the game feel like you are now playing its sequel. It's pure fun Also I want to make a noticeable mention to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Shredder's Revenge. I played that game a lot this year thanks to the Dimension Shellshock DLC that came out midway though the year and had some fun games on there with @Glen-i and @BowserBasher

Nintendo have put up their Year in Review site like they did last year, which shows stats of your most played games: https://year-in-review.nintendo.com/

Another Max Cup/Grand Prix announced. This time for Super Mario Bros Wonder

I saw this animatronic Star Wars toy on the Tested YouTube channel around a year ago and thought it looked really cool. I've not seen the show its from, so I don't actually know anything about it other then its a Star Wars Droid, but it reminded me of the Robots from the 80's movie Batteries Not included, so I picked it up on a recent sale a week or so ago:

Yeah its pretty crazy. I started playing it last night and realised pretty quickly that it is a full fledged game in its own right and that has almost nothing to do with Fortnite other then you can use Lego versions of skins from Fortnite. I teamed up a with a friend and we spent a good 4 hours or so building up a little town, crafting stuff, battling enemies, raiding a cave for materials. It's great. Its something I find strange though... because this would be like, if Nintendo released a full blown Wave Race or F-zero sequel... as a free update to Tears of the Kingdom. If you wanted to play those games, instead of them being separate games on your Switch menu, instead you would start up Zelda and choose to play F-zero from the title screen. It's bizarre. Also, like you said, the name with make people just assume its a Fortnite map with Lego character's, rather then its own game. Rocket racing comes out tonight and after playing the Lego mode I am very excited for it.

I'm very optimistic over it, they added a Minecraft style Lego mode into Fortnite the other night and its pretty great. I am not sure why they didn't make it its own game, it has enough content to be one. Plus... it literally is a different game. Its so bizarre they released a new game inside another very different game. But, If Rocket Racing is of the same quality as that then it'll be great deal more then just a side mode in Fortnite.

Universal Studios Japan has shown off what the new Donkey Kong area of the theme park will look like. They also revealed it will be called Donkey Kong Country: And also some of the stuff you'll be able to buy there:

yeah, once it leaked there wasn't much they could do other then release it officially ahead of the scheduled time they had originally intended to release it. And yeah, like the video you linked to mentioned, these leaks are almost always about online clout. Even worse in this case because the guy who uploaded it had "BUY $BTC" in large letters obscuring the middle of the screen lol: I never thought I would see a tweet like this from them Rockstar:
