For those of you who weren't keeping up on Nintendo news lately, there was a brand new Nintendo Direct a few days ago, which had some coolish stuff in it, although I still think Starfox is boring so sue me, damn. Anyway, I nearly shat myself when I saw that there was indeed a new Paper Mario game coming to the Wii U! Paper Mario is one of my favorite franchises of all time and The Thousand Year Door was one of the first games I played ever. So how does the new game look?
Mostly shitty. Here's why.
First of all, I will give it credit that the overworld looked fine and the paint hammer is kinda cool in a way, but what pisses me the fuck off is the goddam battle mechanics. You would think that Nintendo would have learned their lesson after Sticker Star, but as of now it appears that they don't give a flying fuck about what people thought about that game. Here's the problem with Sticker Star: you should absolutely under no circumstances have to use any special ability or power to utilize a normal stomp or hammer, but sticker star demanded you have the basic stomp sticker if you wanted to stomp, which is ridiculous. As for the new game, the combat was shown briefly, so maybe it works differently, but my impression is that you are going to be painting fucking cards on the GamePad before every battle which would be probably the shittiest invention in the history of mankind.
So, here's hoping that the game has at least a somewhat normal battle system even though that's kind of a hopeless plea, I will plea nonetheless. And in case anyone from Nintendo decides to read this and give a fuck, pleasepleaseplease go back to battle points for special stomps and hammers and nothing for all the basic attacks. I know that there will never again be a masterpiece like The Thousand Year Door, but at least try. I mean, seriously. Try.
Until next time, kcduckling out.

New Nintendo 3DS Review
TWO WHOLE MONTHS LATER I'M NOT DEAD I SWEAR
seriously though, my bad on the whole "not posting" thing I've been doing lately.
anyways, I got the 20th anniversary Pokemon New Nintendo 3DS and it ROCKS
love it
it's the best
From the location of the game card slot to the face-tracking 3D to the Amiibo functionality to the badass faceplates, the New Nintendo 3DS is a solid alternative to the current Nintendo 3DS system. And, if you're one of the suckers who bought the New Nintendo 3DS XL, this regular sized version is also a viable alternate. It is seriously the best.
In other news, Pokemon Sun and Moon were announced which is also really awesome except that the 2 minute long trailer only had 15 seconds of Sun and Moon related stuffs.
Anywho I'll probably be back sooner rather than later because I still need to finish and review Mario and Luigi: Paper Jam, but until then, kcduckling out.
Also, if anyone has an extra Mew they wanna trade me, shoot me a message on Nuggetbridge or leave a comment below. I'll give you nearly anything.
