I have no clue what any of those things are, but cool!

Fun Fact:

The largest desert in the world is Antartica.

A desert just means a place with less than 10 inches of rain a year.

Fun Fact:

The Kirby Series has always had Sound Test/Jukeboxes, but the composers have never been listed directly.(until very recently the song titles weren't listed either) This is probably for immersion

However, there is a way to know who composed what music(post Triple Deluxe)

The notes are color coded to represent different composers(some of their works listed below):

Blue: Hirokazu Ando(Kirby Adventure Boss Theme, every modern game main theme & Final Boss theme, a bunch of other stuff, he's essentially the lead composer nowadays)

Red/Magenta: Jun Ishikawa(the entirety of Kirby Dreamland 1 & 3,every song that reminds you of Float Islands but isn't exactly Float Islands, Studying the Factory, Egg Engines, Moonlight Capital, Sky-High & Smitten, Hyness' Themes, the entirety of Wondaria in Forgotten Land, he's the OG composer basically)

Yellow: Yuuta Ogasawara(Heroes in Another Dimension(Star Allies), main theme of Forgotten Land, Sword of the Surviving Guardian, Roar of Dedede, Northeast Frost Street, one of the two newer composers of the main games selection(more on that later))

Green: Yuki Shimooka(Every map theme in Forgotten Land, Masked & Wild: D.D.D, the "And Here We Are" song(if you want to call it that), "And Here We Are Part 2: Electric Boogaloo -oo -oo -oo", Chaos Elfilis Version of Roche Limit, Doomer Flock from Magolor Epilogue, the other new composer, newest one as far as the main series goes)

I thought that was it but apparently Kirby Dream Buffet(you know, that one F2P racing-ish game) has 3 more composers recognized in it's jukebox, who have been here basically all along for the most part, but primarily in the spinoffs. I assume that some of them will be making the jump over come next game(and by some I mean one of them)

All 3 of them are also the composers for the arrangements that played in the Anniversary concerts as well:
Orange: Megumi Ohara((woman spotted)Anniversary concert arrangements & Drawcia Remix from Dream Buffet(which means she's goated, she's also kinda fine lookin' she's also really new & really young, expect to hear(get it?) more from her in the future)

Purple: Shogo Sakai(RETIRED from HAL 2 years ago)(A lot of the 25th anniversary music, & also some Air Ride songs, including the only one you know, you frauds...as well some of the Smash Remixes)

Indigo(gotta round out the whole rainbow, I guess): Tadashi Ikegami(Green Tree Memories(there's not much on him but this alone is really goated & worth the respect) & Pinball Land(all of it, hence why he's credited in Dream Buffet's jukebox))

Also if you ever see any white notes, those are 3rd party composers who don't work with HAL, the only one of any note is Kiyoshi Hazemoto(the guy who made the Ordeal theme from Kirby Clash and Grand Doomer theme from Magolor Epilogue)

And lastly Dream Buffet has LGBTQ+ Rainbow(I'm not color coding that bro) notes for the HAL band(the anniversary performers, which is over 30+ people and will not be listed here)

This has been a very long fun fact, but it's nice to be able to put names to music without having to look it up!(like I just spent the last half hour of my life doing...)

Wonder what they did to make Galaxy look good & Mario Kart look awful if that's the case...

Is that why MKWii is so damn ugly compared to other Wii games? That explains a lot. Also, do any other Wii games do this?

Well yeah, that's how some deserts look. They aren't all the stereotypical yellow-ish sand like in Mario games. Take the Outback/Senorah for example, which look more orange.

First off, this Custom Track creator didn't make Desert Bus, Desert Bus is OLD
Second, that's just how some parts of the US look(hence why Desert Bus is Desert Bus - it's inspired by that)

I guess it's possible to predict t that the game might be more inspired by realistic environments(which is what they did in Tour & GameFreak has been doing for Pokemon towns/cities since Gen 5), what with the proper circuit and the desert stuff, but

Secondly

It's not confirmed. It's not a fact.

Also what in particular are we supposed to be looking at in the Astro screenshot? You didn't explain.

Fun fact:

The Right Stick in MK8DX can actually be used for accel/braking, just like how it works in Gran Turismo

This is a good alternative for people who's hands might get cramped with holding the A/Y button for too long.

I'd also like to bring up how weird it is that Accelerate in these games isn't on the right shoulder like most racing games. Not something I want changed, just worth pointing out.

Also we should get controller re-mapping this generation, Or at least do like Wii where you can see every button's function when you pause(although the UI for that would look like a nightmare now, it kinda only worked because Wii barely had any buttons on it's controllers)

What does this even mean?

Fun Fact: While Pokemon can not be shiny in Generation 1, it's possible for a Pokemon caught in Generation 1 to become shiny when traded over to Generation 2, since shininess is determined by IVs(DVs) in Gold, Silver & Crystal.

I mean, "Go" is also kind of an expression, but that's still pretty cool!

Not a sentence. Sentences must have more than one word, unless it's an expression like saying crap all by itself.

Trimming The Herbs confirmed TAS by the creator
Super Mario Maker 1 has officially been 100%ed!

Worse will probably show up when Mario Maker 2 is about to go down

Fun fact: There is currently only 1 unbeaten level in Mario Maker 1: Trimming the Herbs, by Ahoyo.
As you all know, the game shuts down next month along with the rest of the WiiU & 3DS library.
There are only a few days left until Mario Maker 1 has been beaten! Although...

Unfortunately, it seems like the creator might'ved TASed it...
Meaning this will either mean that Mario Maker 1 has been beaten...
OR
this will be the only Mario Level ever created that will never be beaten! Stay tuned for the conclusion.
Here is the level btw

The culmination of Team 0%'s work is approaching!

Oh! I was under impression that it was mostly just anal juices being scrapped out. I never thought about poop being down there too. The more you know, I guess

Not true. You mean that they refuse to acknowledge their existence.

Specifically it was the Pipe Frame. Actually....those things came in 2019, pretty sure. Guess Mattel leaked the shit out of the BCP.

Fun Fact:
As most know Nintendo has this habit of using strange codenames to refer to their consoles internally. They are as follows(confirmed ones only)
SFX-Super Famicom
Project Reality-Nintendo 64
Dolphin-GameCube
Revolution-Wii
Project Cafe-WiiU
NX-Switch
Nitro Dual Screen-Nintendo DS

What most people don't know is that individual games also have codenames,& you could only make a guessing game out of this.
For example, RedStar for Mario Odyssey, NitroKart for Mario Kart DS, K4 for Kirby 64(Switch Online). Some of the names have like thought out meanings. Hell, even the controllers are named.

Just thought I'd mention it because people usually stop at just the console names. Also because they're insanely goofy, like, if I asked you to tell me what game you thought "Elsa" was, you'd be like, "What?" Like actually, there's no shot any of you get's that without looking it up, it makes 0 sense

Fun fact: September, October, November & December are named after numbers in Latin because the original Roman calendar(predecessor to the one we use) only had 10 months: January & February did not exist. So they actually were Seventh, Eighth, Ninth & Tenth. But they never updated it to reflect this.
