So it’s not enough that at least 30 people every few months must either die or lose their desires, but the civilians, who had nothing to do with this literal show for entertainment, need to die for the world to be remade.

And you know this. This is just common knowledge. I get it, “death isn’t seen as something serious” whatever, but have some empathy. People of the past are still people.

(#4791) Kirby dibujando por cada miembro de su equipo de desarrollo original

[Publicado originalmente el 25 de Diciembre del 2024]

[doamarierose-honoka]

Being one of the most recognisable and influential figures in gaming, it should come as no surprise that Masahiro Sakurai has managed to accumulate a number of extremely rare collectibles over the years.

In his latest YouTube 'Grab Bag' video, the legendary game designer has taken a bit of a different approach to his usual content, opting to showcase some of the most rare antiques in his collection; items that simply would never become available to the general public thanks to their unique features.

So we've got engraved Wii Remotes, autographs from Shigeru Miyamoto, Kid Icarus statues... The lot. There was potential for a video like this to feel a bit pretentious, but it actually comes across as a nice, wholesome bit of viewing. Well, see what you think, anyway.

Who could have guessed there would be so much story behind such a simple design!🎮

Iwata on Kirby and Miyamoto's long-held goal of multiplayer Mario, 2009.

PEOPLE:

Satoru Iwata, age 49. Producer for Kirby Super Star. President of Nintendo.

Toshihiko Nakago, age 52. Programmer of The Legend of Zelda and Super Mario Bros., and other Zelda titles.

Shigeru Miyamoto, age 56. Producer for Kirby Super Star, Creator of Zelda and Mario.

QUOTE: "Iwata: [Multiplayer] is one of the ideas that he returns to with every Mario game. It's a fair while ago now, but I once went to see Miyamoto-san to propose an idea for [Kirby Super Star (1996)]. He then set me a task to work on, saying: ‘We keep trying it every time with Mario but just can't seem to pull it off. Why don't we try having a multiplayer mode in Kirby?’

Nakago: So even though you'd gone to propose an idea to him, Miyamoto-san actually turned the tables and proposed one to you? [laughs]

Iwata: That's right. It was this, which led to the director on Kirby, Sakurai-san, to come up with the idea of having a two-player helper system and including it in the game."

[superpotionlabs]

From 1992 - the original team behind Kirby were asked to draw the character from memory. Here are the results. Image shows Nintendo some of Nintendo's most notable figures including the late Satoru Iwata (HAL Labs/Nintendo), Shigeru Miyamoto and Masahiro Sakurai.

I want to be Your Koi Fish - Nine Tails

Warning: +18 content, criminal underworld, intercourse, strong language - and so on

Fanfiction based on: "Baki" by Itagaki Keisuke

>28<

It was the strangest knock-out of her life. She'd never remembered much, never seen anything...and this time she was absolutely sure she had seen HER. As soon as she closed her eyes, intoxicated by her sister's blow, Sakurai appeared under her eyelids, gracefully turning towards her and extending her hand, and she... she grabbed it. Was it affect? Too many kitsune connections for one lifetime! Fortunately, after waking up, she did not see Master Inari again, but her concerned husband, cradling her to his massive chest. The situation would be incredibly romantic if it wasn't for the loud, very low rumble coming from her belly. Kaoru only half-smiled, handing her a box prepared earlier for the occasion. She wasn't so naive as not to foresee that the probability of such a blow was very high. Luckily, I managed to keep the excitement until the very end. She didn't manage to touch the fragrant food when Shigeru's grandfather rushed into the waiting room like a hailstorm with Yui following him, suspiciously squinting her eyes.

- How could you cover up something like that?! - he growled at his youngest granddaughter. - In front of me?!

- I told you I wasn't cut out to be a master, you didn't listen. - she replied calmly, taking a bite of spring roll with meat.

- But... the ninth tail?! Hanabi!

- You'd probably find that an excuse that's hard to prove, so we agreed that the best solution would be to make you see it with your own eyes, Soga-san. - Kaoru added, embracing his wife. - Hanabi being a teacher in your school is a really bad idea, especially when you have the perfect candidate behind you.

- After all... after all... - he stammered, not knowing what to answer. - It's only her... only Sakurai...

- Oh, that's right. Greetings from great-grandmother Sakurai, grandfather. - she added, devouring the shrimp whole.

She devoured the entire container at an alarming rate, restraining herself from belching in company. It seemed that one fire had done all the roasts she had planned. She felt great with that thought, snuggling into the protective arm in the white suit. Suddenly, however, the ground trembled, and Hanabi felt such an unpleasant feeling that she almost vomited her meal. As if it had imploded on its own.

- Sweet Inari...no... - she whispered, throwing the bento to the ground and breaking free from the embrace. - Fubuki!

She ran as fast as she could, guided by a strong feeling that something very bad was going on and she had a big part in it. She had never felt this way before. Never, except... the day her astral body entered her tiny niece. Kaoru and Yui followed her. They found them in one of the side corridors. Battered Chiharu, guarding three girls, a huge man in a tight t-shirt and Shizuka held by the throat by his huge paw, gasping for air.

- Mom... - sobbed the little redhead, and the ground trembled again.

- Then why don't you go out with me, sweetie? - the bully chuckled.

- You're not my type, nice guy ... - replied the lady mechanic with difficulty.

- Shizuka! - Hanabi shouted, rushing forward.

- I'll be fine, Hana, step aside! - The older one growled, something crunching under her clenching fingers.

Shiba barely held the struggling girls, he didn't stop one of them. Agile and flexible like Fubuki's mother, she jumped ahead of the rest, her face flooded with tears, trying hard to hold back an outburst of tears.

- Let go of mom... - she said through clenched teeth.

- Oh, come on, this little one is ordering me around! - the guy laughed. - Adorable!

- Fubuki, baby... - Shizuka groaned. - Calm down, breathe...

Hana felt it again, swayed on her feet, leaning on her husband's arm. As if for a moment she lost all strength, which returned in a moment, hitting her head directly, causing a strong pressure. A bit like when, using her energy, the Mythical Fox materialized. She heard a wooden door slam behind her.

- RELEASE MOM! - the girl shouted, and Mrs. Hanayama even saw an aura emanating from her.

It was white as snow and as powerful as an atomic bomb. Fubuki, probably unconsciously, hurled the gnarled parts of the door towards the bruiser with great force. But no one could have predicted that this untamed power would reach someone else. One of the fragments hit the man, no doubt piercing the lung and reaching the heart. The second... hit the red-haired woman right in the stomach. The dead man's blood mixed on the floor with that of a young lady mechanic falling to the ground. However, she gathered herself to get up with the last of her strength, limping to the baby and hugging it as safely as possible to her breast.

- It's okay, Fubuki...it's okay... - she whispered into her ear, losing more and more blood with each passing moment. - Breathe, honey. You're not to blame. It was an accident...

She was eavesdropping, which she shouldn't have, but she knew her sister wouldn't tell the whole truth, not right away. Hanabi kept an impassive face, even though inside she was shaking with nerves, just like the rest of the family gathered in the corridor. Shizuka had a workshop to support, three kids... and it looked like absolutely everything was going to go to hell. Even their father's financial support wouldn't last long. She listened as the doctor, in a typical, professional tone, told the redhead that there had been irreparable damage to the reproductive organs, the shrapnel had penetrated too deep not to cause a catastrophe. She had to undergo an expensive operation to be able to function normally, continue her usual life, then rehabilitation, so that the scars would be mobile after all. She was never to give birth again. Hanabi felt a weight crushing her chest. The older one adored the little ones, she always looked after them with great care and devotion, no matter if it was hers or one of the sisters. She muttered that the relationship with Chiharu was great, she hoped that it would result in one or two ... and life served such a blow. No... actually, the youngest did it, admittedly completely unintentionally, not of her own free will, but she had a hand in this tragedy. Mrs. Hanayama passed the doctor in the doorway, then locked the room. In the bed across from her lay a red-haired woman wrapped in a mass of bandages around her stomach, hooked up to drips and other bags. Even though she tried to keep her cool, it was obvious that the information had crushed her. There was a lot of suffering on his tired face.

- Shizuka... I... I'm sorry... - the black-haired girl choked out through her constricted throat. - I had no idea it would end like this, that Fubuki would be so vulnerable that she's even...

- Quit, Hanabi. - her older sister interrupted sharply. - Go away, I need to think about a few things, rest.

- I... sure. - Hanabi muttered, turning towards the door.

For the people still unaware, listed on the image, screenshot on episode 43 of Kamen Rider Geats, are the ages of Keiwa's family.

Keiwa himself is 22 y/o

his older sister, Sara, is 25 y/o

his parents Shigeru and Yukino would live up to the ages of 52 and 51 respectively in Keiwa's world.

We still have no definite timeline on when the Sakurai parents perished in a DGP-related event, but it was safe to say it was before Ace became a DGP participant.

[asknarashikari]

A serious Geats thing first: I think Beroba and the others did not do anything to Keiwa's wish... I do however think that they sought out the two most problematic Riders and gave them their drivers and iD cores.

Beroba being chummy with Neon's kidnapper and Kekera pointing the direction where Sakurais are for the guy to attack and kill them.

----

In any case...

Here's another scenario:

Cobra Stamping Finish!

KR Jeanne: Come with me!

People: starts running in Jeanne's direction.

Evil Rider1: Why you? You're not a DGP Rider!

KR Jeanne: That DGP that kidnapped my brother? Hell no!

KR Jeanne: And since you're attacking civilians now, I'll defeat you quickly!

Bat Justice Finish!

KR Live: Sakura, no time for that! We need to get these people to safety!

Sakura: On it!

Sara: Ano... I can't fi-

Shigeru and Yukini: Sara! Sara, thank goodness you're alright!

Sara: Tou-chan, Kaa-chan.

Daiji: That means...

Sakura: Something must have gone so wrong for this to happen.

Daiji: i'll let nii-chan contact that Ace.

---

Ace: So Tycoon's family is resurrected and safe.

Ikki: They can't get a hold of him.

Ace: This is what I was afraid of.

Ikki: What is going on?

Ace: *narrates everything up to that point.*

Ikki: And you didn't think to visit him?

Ikki: No, this isn't the time for that.

Ace: You're right, I was so worried about the Jamato and my sister's safety...

Ikki: No use blaming yourself for that.

Ikki: Can you restore his sister's memories, I'd rather you not make her a Rider... or else...

*Ikki's cellphone rings*

Ikki: Wait a moment*

----

Ikki: We've got a huge problem.

Ikki: Apparently the Sakurais are listed among the dead from the recent attack.

Ace: They really want to sink their claws in on him.

Ikki: I'm afraid what's left is to make his sister into a Rider.

Ace: I can't. I still have no control over my powers and I still haven't managed to recreate the broken ID cores and her's was shattered.

Ikki: And we can't bring her to the enemy's den without any Rider powers.

Ace: We should go, and let's bring Sara-san with us.

Ace: I can handle Beroba and Kekera.

Ace: If we're lucky, Sara-san can pull him out of there.

Daiji: You're not going alone.

Sakura: We'll be there.

Can we just let all the senpai Riders go feral protecting the Sakurai sibs and keeping Berobitch and that froggy gnome bastard from getting their hands on them

[askrikkaiandhyotei]

rewatched Geats episode 43 using Anon Subs... We've got confirmed Ages for the Sakurais, including Sara.

Sara is currently 25 y/o

Shigeru is 52 (dad) and Yukino is 51 (mom)

Hmmm….

[icharchivist]

Hosoyan, Suzuken, Sakurai, you mentioned a Suwabe-voiced character exists, fucking GACKT

That cast is stacked

And all the hivemind's faves are assembled

I'm sure we'll find even more familiar names if we dig

there's also Maaya Sakamoto playing Aerith, being Olivia in Granblue as well

hell i wouldn't be surprised if there's even more.

like looking through it...

just so to mention them

Suzuken, playing Zack in ff7, and Sandalphon in gbf Sakurai, playing Cloud, and the Lucifaces in gbf Suwabe, playing Tseng, and Seofon Hosoyan, playing Sonon, and Belial and Bowman there's also Kappei Yamaguchi, playing Red XIII, who plays Walder in gbf. Hideo Ishikawa, playing Cait Sith, who plays Zaja in gbf. Kazuhiro Yamaji, playing Cid, who plays Yngwie and is Eugen's second seiyuu Speaking of, Keiji Fujiwara used to play Reno, and Eugen, before his death Taiten Kusunoki, playing Rude, and Eso Megumi Toyoguchi, playing Elena, and Shura Kenta Miyake, playing Roche, and Deliford Shigeru Chiba, playing Hojo (piece of shit die die die), and Yodarha Banjō Ginga, playing Reeve (!!!), and Eahta Satomi Moriya, playing Jessie, and Sylph Tomokazu Sugita, playing Aniyan (Andrea in english? the owner of the honey bee inn), and Drang

and the MVP i need to not forget, Toshiyuki Morikawa, playing Sephiroth, and Seruel.

and that's only for the characters i bother to check. I also see Shirai Yusuke (Mordred) is playing a minor new character in Rebirth for instance.

so yeah, the cast is stacked as always, i just forget it most of the time.

but yeah. yeah..... much to think about!

[armadilloroll]

I had a chat a month or so ago with a friend about directors of videogames and how the audience would respond to seeing them in-game.

Sam Lake gets a standing ovation. Everyone wants to have a new spin-off with not! Max Payne - Alex Casey, actually. Can we get more of this guy, please? Immediate concern if anything happens to him. Like CASEY ARE YOU OKAY PLEASE BE OKAY. I won't lie. In that one scene where Casey was out in the woods, I ran without any bullets for the shotgun to go make sure that he was all right. Like, I'LL FISTY-CUFFS. I'LL DO IT FOR CASEY!

I wondered what other directors could elicit a response. So, here's the general vibe ... some came up with my friend and some on my own...

Hideo Kojima could show up in his own game. He'd either be an NPC named Hideo Kojima and just IS Hideo Kojima as much as Hideo Kojima could make himself. Or he'd be a secret boss with the wackiest mechanics ever for no reason other than "I couldn't put this in the game so wanted to put them somewhere." And his team going, "We thought he was joking."

Yoko Taro could show up as a secret boss. Fighting him would wipe out every single save and inability to play the game for at least 10 days. However, get a very special achievement that'd be like, "Congrats. There will be no more sequels of this game." Or some shit. (laughs)

Shigeru Miyamoto would just want to be an NPC. He'd have a cute pun name and just be helpful and maybe give something nice if someone happened to find him in the game. Players probably would try to surround the character with dropped high-quality items. If possible.

Masashiro Sakurai could show up but only as an assist. Incredibly rare. 1% chance to drop. It immediately kills all enemy characters. The line: "Never ask me for anything again." comes up. He is never seen again. This is seen only in YT due to the rarity but generally, a good time is had.

Todd Howard and Ed Boon have the same feelings for me. Neither one would want to be in their own games. They really feel like they just appreciate it and have no desire to be part of the world like they see that shit and go like, "Actually, I'm good not putting myself there, thanks." Knowing full well what players would do to them if they were in the game even as an NPC.

David Cage's character would be killed on sight regardless if it was possible or not; if it brought about a bad ending or not; if it soft-locked the game or not. Immediate mockery would be had.
