#The Wisdom of Donkeys

Nintendo really said they were coming for my wallet with today's Nintendo Direct:

A new Mario & Luigi game??? A new MARIO PARTY and we don't have to wait for the next console??? With cool new boards and lots of minigames??? A new DK anything, even if it's not the DK64 remake I've been waiting for? A NEW ZELDA WITH A PLAYABLE ZELDA???? And Ace Attorney Investigations 2 FINALLY gets localized and we get the games in a collection on Switch to finally complete the series thus far??? With NEW ART AND GRAPHICS???

I'm half convinced I'm dreaming because none of these seem real! Finally Nintendo understands they can just have my dang money if they make good games and games we've been requesting for ages. I wasn't expecting this much to be released so late in the Switch's lifecycle, but well done ya'll.

There were also some cute RPG, adventure and farming games in this Direct I may have to check out. I'll admit I'm real curious about the Hobbit game.

I don't even go here, but seeing a new Metroid game finally coming out is pretty cool too.

Perfect Dark coming to Nintendo 64 online was also a great dose of nostalgia. My brother and I used to rent that one from Blockbuster so much back in the day.

Growing up and maturing does NOT mean you have to abandon harmless hobbies or interests that are fun, colourful, cute or silly.

Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

Holy moley, there was a lot of stuff announced in the latest direct.

A new Mario & Luigi game.

A new Mario Party.

A Zelda game ACTUALLY starring Zelda.

Marvel Vs. Capcom Collection, hell yeah! I've waited so long for this!

Not sure why they are releasing Turok again, but at least we got Perfect Dark (Now we only have 4 more RareWare titles to come)

Nintendo Direct Thoughts

NEW MARIO & LUIGI GAME AND IT LOOKS FUCKING GORGEOUS!!! Love how well they've not just maintained but enhanced that signature artstyle. Also the idea of the Bros getting straight-up isekaied like that amuses me.

IT ALREADY HAS A RELEASE DATE HELL YEAH

Fantasian and Memories in Orbit both look pretty cool. Might check them out.

DK Rerelease...well, at least it's something. And since they're including the 3DS levels it's technically a definitive edition so that's nice.

Loved that cheeky little bit at the end of the Dragon Quest III remake trailer "lol you really thought we'd skip the first two with a tagline like "the legacy begins?" anyway here's 1 and 2." Also it looks beautiful. Never been that interested in Dragon Quest but I might give it a shot.

I look at Funko Pops and feel nothing

the fuck is a "denpa men?" looks cute though

Phantom Brave the Lost Hero looks pretty cool. I'm not usually that good at tactics games but that's never stopped me before (the question is whether I'd have to check out the rest of the series to know what's going on...)

New Super Mario Party! With full-sized boards! And a mall! And racecars! And NINJI! We never get anything with Ninji!

E...Echos...of Wisdom. Zelda can has...game? Zelda can has game! ZELDA CAN HAS GAME! ZELDA CAN HAS GAME!!!!!!!

Oh I can just imagine the crazy game breaks people are gonna pull off with that echo mechanic. I'm glad they made it partly a puzzle game, really fits with what most Zeldas are like.

Also I really like how Ganon looks in this artstyle.

A win for lawyer fans the world over

PRIME 4 IS REEEEEAAAAALLLLL!!!!!!!! And it looks so good.

[local-hyena]

NINTENDO DIRECT WAS FULL OF INTERESTING STUFF HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS :

Ace Attorney Investigations Collection : AYO HD EDGEWORTH ON MY SCREEN ?? HD GUMSHOE ??? Also FINALLY and official translation for AAI 2 !!! Funny thing, I'm currently playing a totally legal ROM of AAI1

Mario and Luigi Brothership : NEW MARIO AND LUIGI GAME ??? Yes. Very much yes.

Super Mario Party Jamboree : Hell yeah.

Mio Memories in Orbit : I like this. I LIKE this. I LIKE THIS.

The legend of Zelda Echoes of Wisdom : A Zelda game where you play Zelda ??? They should've called this one The Legend of Link lmao

The Hundred Line Last Defense Academy : HELL YEAH DANGANROMPA CREATOR. I haven't actually played any Danganrompa game completly yet. When I'm done with Danganronpa I might play this one

Donkey Kong remake : I'd rather play the original

Romancing saga 2 : never heard of this series before, but seems fun.

Phantom Brave : honestly, looks fun.

DENPA MEN ?????? WAS THAT THE "3DS CLASSIC" THAT WAS LEAKED ??? I rlly need to play the orignal rofl

This direct was utterly fantastic. I’m at a loss for words.

Metroid Prime 4

A new linear Zelda game where we can play as Zelda and save Link?!

A remake of dragon quest and romancing saga

That dope ass new Mario party

A remake of donkey Kong and Luigi’s mansion 2.

Even the newer titles like stray look fantastic.

Nintendo spoiled us today!

Saturday 25th November 2023 - "Even a donkey won't stumble on the same stone twice." - Turkish Proverb

[daaft-prick-69]

The donkey told the tiger, "The grass is blue."

The tiger replied, "No, the grass is green."

The discussion became heated, and the two decided to submit the issue to arbitration, so they approached the lion.

As they approached the lion on his throne, the donkey started screaming: ′′Your Highness, isn't it true that the grass is blue?"

The lion replied: "If you believe it is true, the grass is blue."

The donkey rushed forward and continued: ′′The tiger disagrees with me, contradicts me, and annoys me. Please punish him."

The king then declared: ′′The tiger will be punished with 3 days of silence."

The donkey jumped with joy and went on his way, content and repeating ′′The grass is blue, the grass is blue..."

The tiger asked the lion, "Your Majesty, why have you punished me, after all, the grass is green?"

The lion replied, ′′You've known and seen the grass is green."

The tiger asked, ′′So why do you punish me?"

The lion replied, "That has nothing to do with the question of whether the grass is blue or green. The punishment is because it is degrading for a brave, intelligent creature like you to waste time arguing with an ass, and on top of that, you came and bothered me with that question just to validate something you already knew was true!"

The biggest waste of time is arguing with the fool and fanatic who doesn't care about truth or reality, but only the victory of his beliefs and illusions.

Never waste time on discussions that make no sense. There are people who, for all the evidence presented to them, do not have the ability to understand.

Others are blinded by ego, hatred, and resentment, and the only thing that they want is to be right even if they aren’t.

When IGNORANCE SCREAMS, intelligence moves on.

It's July, so it's time for the monthly video upload...

Except this time, i made 3 VIDEOS IN 1!

Btw, i'm testing out the new multiple thumbnails test on YouTube, to see if it works.

First off, the latest reaction to the Nintendo Direct, now featuring myself as a PNGTuber (something that i've been wanting to do for awhile.

Featuring the following people:

@monadoboy16

@crispytoastyt

TheAtomicMetalSonic

Goldie25

HaresJules

@shiningstar5022

nm9x

SparkyLynx64

Jordo

EternalRed

TTVKBGOD12

Rax

Blanky

Juaco Animarts

During pre-Direct sheningans, me, Metallix and Goldie randomly recited Steamed Hams so it got turned a segment, but YT became a copyright claiming twat about it. So despite being on the red still, i'm releasing it as a seperate video.

And lastly, ever since the Switch stopped supporting Twitter (thx alot you Elon fuck), i decided to release all the Switch clips i had stockpilled since 2021.
