Mario Kart is selling just like the Wii version. Actually, if you count the Wii U sales, I believed it's surpassed Mario Kart Wii sales. Crazy.

What did you do?! It's the best hack and slash game, I hope you said that.

That is definitely something neither of us said. But I'm not sure if Aarny included hack and slash in his list of names for the genre.

Been playing Supraland, it's a GENIUS first person puzzle game on PC that takes so many elements from a bunch of games and has some wild new ideas as well. It's hard to even describe cause it keeps on evolving into something more and more complex. At first it's like simple switch puzzles, you just have a sword and battle a few evil skeletons as you explore. Then you get laser guns that activate switches, ability to make platformers, ability to float on metals, and now some grapple gun thing that has uses that are blowing my mind. The world is interconnected, kind of large open spaces connected to one another with larger shortcuts that take you back and forth. It's like Portal on steroids with a mix of combat.

I thought it was an adventure game in the vein of Zelda, rather than a puzzle game. Uneasy

It still has about 10 million copies to sell I think. The Wii version was the best selling game on the system outside of Wii Sports and Wii Play. Hell it still sold like 40K copies in 2018 I think.

Anyway, I think MK8 will get there when all is said and done. Pretty much the best cart game of all time, and the Switch is pretty much going to own 2020 until the new systems launch.

So there is a thing called fantasy video games where instead of fantasy football you pick games releasing this year and get points based on the meta score. If you pick a game that gets delayed you can choose to have drops to switch it for another game. You draft about 6 games and then have $100 to bid on free agent games that get announced later in the year, with next gen coming there will be a TON of unannounced games hitting this Christmas. It's fun, I'm in two leagues already. Anyone interested. With 5 or 6 it's enough.

Did you watch the video? I'm just bored. Life seems to be endless rotation of the same thing. Also it's an awesome song 🎶

Nintendo sales figures are pure insanity, we are back to wii level domination. 16 million Pokémon sold in like a month?! Both odyssey and BOTW at 16 million. Smash 17 mil, Luigi at 5 mil already?! Splatoon 2 9 mil?! Incredible numbers.

Animal Crossing soon. Need to fix my flecking joycon.
