"Stop screaming and mourn for my bro Uvo dammit!"
If they ain't in the troupe, they ain't worth shit.

You know, that really says a lot if Nobunaga wants Killua and Gon to join the Troupe.

I hear that sentiment quite often.
The SRW versions of Gundam plots tend to actually be good! Even SEED.

I think Nobunaga can sense that those two have some top tier potential,
that and he'd actually have fun interacting with them.
Nobunaga is a nicer bloke than fucking
Binolt
for example, but you'd never realize that regarding how Gon talks to those characters.

The NES classic was one thing, but I'll actually be a little bummed when I can't order/find an SNES classic lol.

Same. I would have liked an NES Classic as a novelty, not because I could really see myself using it much.

By contrast, I WANT an SNES Classic.

A lot of the SNES games I like I either already have on Wii/WiiU virtual console or ports, so I'm not sure if I want another box to hook up.

Now what's the next step in your master plan?
Meh. After how Nintendo handled things with the NES version I could care less. No way I'm paying scalper prices for that or finding out it's been discontinued in a short amount of time.

I like how they're going out of their way to make the European SNES Mini have the Japan/Europe SNES design. It's cute.

Agreed. With the NES Classic, there's a few games worth playing & the others are "eeh, I'll try these for a few minutes", but with the SNES Classic, this is truly a great list of games, even if I've already played most of them. SNES was my first console so I have much more nostalgia for it over the NES.

I don't want to be picky, but the lack of DKC2 and Chrono Trigger hurts. Like if it could've been 25 games instead of 21 and added in Chrono Trigger, DKC2, Super Mario All-Stars, and TMNT: Turtles in Time it'd be perfection.
I'm rather surprised by no Super Mario All-Stars (that seemed like such an easy choice), DKC1 over the much more popular DKC2 (hell, they did Mega Man 2 over MM1) & Chrono Trigger seemed like a good choice since we got Secret of Mana AND FF3/6.

But what we got is still pretty damn good considering we're getting stuff like Earthbound, Super Mario RPG, Final Fantasy 3/6, Mega Man X, & FREAKIN' STAR FOX 2.

This does make me wonder if they finally figured out the FX Chip emulation problem considering Star Fox & Yoshi's Island are included. Maybe this means we could see those games on the Switch's VC eventually?

Star Fox 2 and Yoshi's Island are definitely big surprises. For those along I'll probably end up picking this up if I can actually find it in stores.

Grew up in the 16-bit era as well?


TG's ending is hilarious. The over the top acting is what separates it from Akame Ga Kill. Though with everyone saying that the second season is worse AGK could still come out on top.
Who ever "wins", we all lose.


Ghost in the Shell videogames overview.Spoiler Alert, it ain't pretty.
Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes is the best template gaming has for such a title right now (no, not the length and price).
 
Wow, really?

DR Movie doing really well with HxH, whew.

Their eps might start to become a tad more noticeable in the big upcoming arc since I think MadHouse kicked up the level of animation a notch for a fair chunk of their own episodes during it

Emphasis on a small 'might'
 
Aren't we getting the BD versions anyway?
Yes, we are. So far I haven't seen much difference from the TV-airing, but then again they were still maintaining the 10:55 a.m. timeslot by this point where it was making the Japanese top ten animated-TV rankings (viewership) no problem. So, there couldn't really be any financing issues.

And Hulu still seems to have the episodes only up to 79. I have not gotten to check out any of the BD editions of episodes 80+, it would seem

It's more to do with the selection of games. There are plenty of games on the NES Classic that I love but wouldn't want to put much time into going back to these days. Most of the meat with NES games comes from the need to play them over and over again to really get good at them and unlock their secrets, something I just don't really have time for these days. I had my fill of most of them as a kid, and while it might be nice to jump into something like Mega Man 2 for a little bit just for fun, I don't need to spend $80 to do that.

By contrast, the SNES Classic is loaded with meaty games that I actually would be happy to sink significant time into in 2017. Secret of Mana and Final Fantasy VI alone would be worth the price of admission (despite how many times I've played through VI), and there's still 20 more games to go with those, including Super Metroid and Mega Man X, which are two games that I will always be down for at all times for the rest of my life, EarthBound (which I've still never actually taken the time to play), and a new Star Fox game. And several other games that would rank extremely highly on a "greatest games of all time" list, just as an added bonus. There's just clearly a lot more bang for your buck with the games on that machine.
