The Japanese commercial for 'Pinobee' on the Game Boy Advance.

Just realized there are two versions of this Pinobee render (Left shared by Naoto Ohshima on Twitter, right a promotional wallpaper)

The most notable differences are the fairy being removed and weirdly Grandpa Bee changing eye colors. Perhaps the render Ohshima shared was an earlier version, since Grandpa Bee has purple eyes in the final game.

‘Pinobee: Wings of Adventure’

[GBA] [USA] [MAGAZINE] [2001]

“Grandpa Bee has kidnapped before finishing you, Pinobee - a robotic bee made to defend the world. The player must go through 9 worlds in order to find and rescue your creator. There are multiple storylines with multiple endings. Pinobee can take out most enemies by jumping on top of then, but the most important means of attack is a dash, which can be executed in any direction (also diagonal). The amount of consecutive dashes can be upgraded when meeting a certain character. Pinobee collects flower and question mark bubbles provide power-ups, enhancing the dashes, providing temporary shields or other bonuses. Players can use the Game Link to collect and trade items with friends for power-ups.” ~MobyGames

Not a film but you did watch it be played in real time but Pinobee Wings of Adventure let’s HEAR IT

never seen | want to see | the worst | bad | whatever | not my thing | good | great | favorite| masterpiece

it's a bit too crusty and janky for my tastes but i do, legitimately, find some of the concepts interesting. the fact that this old ass game has multiple endings based on what you do AND how you treat other characters is honestly pretty impressive

Pinobee~ 🐝🌼🌷

believe it or not, I used to own a copy of the Game Boy Advance game hue

(technically, Naoto Ohshima created this little guy, so it's no surprise his own little vibes!)

[blazehedgehog]

Whenever you do your review for the full version of Balan Wonderworld, drawing comparisons between both Naka and Ohshima’s prior well-recieved work (Sonic, NiGHTS, etc.) AND their later lukewarm titles post-SEGA/Sonic Team (Naka’s PROPE, Ohshima’s Artoon & Arzest (Pinobee, Blinx, Vampire Rain, FlingSmash, etc.)) would be advisable

With all due respect, I think I’ll write my review from whatever perspective I think feels natural to me.

This isn’t intended to put you on blast or anything, but the way writing works for me, and presumably for everyone, is that you have to have an “angle.” That’s an old school term from the golden age of newspaper reporting, but it applies to all writing, and it basically means “the perspective you’re writing from.”

This is how I can crank out 40+ SAGE reviews. Figure out what you’re looking at, figure out where you’re looking at it from, and write your way from point A to point B. That’s an angle. Once you understand that, the words pretty much fall into place automatically. And, chances are, you’ll have multiple angles to look at it from.

Let’s take my Super Mario Sunshine review and break it down in to its angles.

ANGLE 1: What is my point of reference for Sunshine?

I was very excited for it

I watched an SDA speed run for the game

I ended up getting it for Christmas a few months later

I was deeply disappointed.  

ANGLE 2: Where does Sunshine fall in the timeline of Mario games?

It was from a transitional period

You can draw a line from Mario 64 -> Sunshine -> Galaxy -> 3D Land connecting them along an axis of gameplay linearity

It is the black sheep of the Mario franchise.  

ANGLE 3: What makes Sunshine a bad game?

A greater focus on a paper-thin story, which ruins the pacing

Pointless level design full of lots of wasted space

Art direction feels very same-y and boring.  

ANGLE 4: How do I feel about the game now?

It’s not as bad as I remember.

But I still don’t love it.

When I have trouble writing something, it’s either because I’m having trouble finding my angle, or it’s because I have too many angles and I’m having a hard time keeping them all straight (this second one has been happening with my Sonic Forces video for over a year now).

There is, however, one universal constant I learned from my TSSZ days, and it’s that I want to own my opinion. If there is a game I know I’m going to play for review, I go on total blackout for that game. No previews, no reviews, I try to avoid people talking about it on Twitter, I tune as much of it out as possible, and it’s because of opinion leakage.

I know I’m not the only one who does this, there’s literally whole studies on the function of zeitgeists and hive mentality, but if I read someone else’s review while I’m writing mine, their opinions tend to seep in to my writing. Think of it like an extension of impostor syndrome. You read someone else’s review, say to yourself, “I’m wrong and garbage because they’re correct and perfect” and then suddenly the whole tone of your review changes because you abandon your perspective and leech off of someone else’s good vibes.

I think I’ve mentioned this before, but famously, this is what happened with my Grand Theft Auto 4 review. I gushed about how awesome that game was, but the review was mostly just me parroting what EGM and Gametrailers and every other “professional outlet” was saying at the time. The thing is, though, that happened with a couple more reviews, too. I don’t specifically remember which ones, because to me the shining example will always be that GTA4 review, but it happened, and once I realized what was happening, I did everything in my power to distance myself from a scenario where an outside opinion could sway how I truly felt.

It was the only way I could guarantee that my words were my own. This is also why, when people would ask me here on Tumblr what I thought of certain “Sonic Youtubers,” I would say I’d never watched them. That’s because I was guarding the purity of my opinions*.

So I’ll be honest with you, Anon. The moment I caught on that your ask here was attempting to dictate the direction my review should go in, I instantly tuned you out. Because my review will go in the direction I feel it should go in. Because it is my review, and I must protect that fact. Nobody comes to me to hear me parrot another person’s talking points. They come to me for my angle. And that’s how it’s going to stay.

(* Nowadays I’m a little smarter about this stuff; for instance, I subscribe to SomeCallMeJohnny now, but I will not be watching his upcoming Balan video until well after my review is done.)
