As someone's who just beat the Darker Side of the Moon in Odyssey, I think it's not so much 'super hard' as it is ridiculously long. 14 sections for a Grandmaster Galaxy/Perfect Run setup is stupid.

So apparently Nintendo made a deliberately terrible version of Jump Up Super Star from Odyssey with Toad singing it. It's as horrible as it sounds: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o31YJDrnWb0

It's like they realised that dying after getting most of tthe coins was annoying, so greatly restricted their mission layout in the endgame. Interesting contrast to most Mario 64 hacks, like Star Road and Last Impact, which scatter the red coins everywhere and make you have to traverse the whole level without dying to get them all.

Seriously, note the pattern. Bob-omb Battlefield, Whomp's Fortress, Jolly Roger Bay, Cool Cool Mountain, Big Boo's Haunt and Shifting Sand Land have you find them across the whole level. But then every other level sticks them in the same small area.

Hmm, why does Mario 64 make the red coins so much easier to find from the 6th course onwards?

Looks at a certain dragon like boss in Mario Odyssey. Hmm, journalists now have a real reason to compare it to Dark Souls!

Hmm, seems Mario Odyssey has been leaked online. Some real interesting content in the later kingdoms...

Really needs to happen too. The Mario Land games are great, but they're getting a tad outdated now.

It's not happened yet, but Nintendo seems to acknowledging those games more and more now, and a remake seems like something that's gonna happen at some point.

Hmm, wonder how long till we see a Super Mario Land remake?

So apparently a real cicus benefited from Paper Mario Color Splash giving them free advertising: "In a bizarre accidental case, in Paper Mario: Color Splash, the Emerald Circus troupe, at one point, requests Mario to follow them on social media. As it turns out, there is a real Emerald Circus out there, which got a burst of activity on their Facebook and Twitter pages. They embraced the coincidential identical name too, with a full playthrough of the Emerald Circus stage on their Facebook page. "

You actually pay people online for doing some work as admins and writers with good cash? Interesting!

Secondly, gonna need a way to make some more cash quite fast, since there's stuff I probably need to pay for this year. Funny how everyone is so willing to support YouTubers, but not writers, artists or website owners.

Right, a few updates about this site. Firstly, it's likely I may try and downsize the site's hosting account in future, since it costs way too much for just this site and Gaming Reinvented.

Oh jeez, Mario Party 4's intro looks so hilariously bad: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gB0nCcX2Hvs The animation is painful!

The TV Tropes example for Agatha Christie's Murder on the Orient Express gave me quite the laugh, albeit unintentionally: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/ThrillerOnTheExpress. Hooray for Captain Obvious!

Wait, Bird and Beans was at the Nintendo World Championships 2017? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TaiQcqR8vps That's more Wario stuff than I ever expected!

Recently, I've seen a lot of complaints about NeoGAF on Twitter and other social media sites. And I agree, it's a terribly run forum. But here's a simple tip to make it all better. Leave. Join one of the thousands of other better gaming forums online. Wario Forums, Gaming Latest, DK Vine, Zelda Dungeon, Bulbagarden, Smash Boards, Serenes Forest, Starmen.net, Nintendo Life, Eurogamer, The Escapist, Niche Gamer... anything you find that's not called NeoGAF here: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=gaming+forum. That's how you make a service improve nowadays. Leave the service/company/forum with no customers or users and watch it die.

Maybe there should be some more content on our Youtube channel. It's still pretty empty.
