Searching the name mentioned in the title leads me to

One that's weirdly consistent is Treehouse going out of its way to 'tude Ashley up. It's best-known with her theme song (where the English goes for a cackling evil witch archetype while the Japanese is more of an ironic "look how wonderful Ashley is" but it extends to the ingame dialogue. The...

That was very intentional! There's an intentional rejection of a lot of modern storytelling conventions here. Recently I watched the british murder mystery series Midsomer Murders and when the original actor wanted out after 13 seasons, his final episode was... a completely standard episode...

Thank you very much for taking the time to read this! It's good to have an idea of what warrants elaboration. And your question does allow me to elaborate on the "vibe" I'm going for a bit. Last year I got bigly into watching old-school live-action TV (not just the above-mentioned British shows...

A big one I remember from the French translation of Get It Together, Wario's description for Kat & Ana stages refer to them as (paraphrasing from memory) "two pests who think they're ninjas". The translation is otherwise close to the English script so it feels like the French translator got...

This is my idea for a video game starring Ashley 'n' pals. It is half-formed, Mario and the Music Box-level of uncharacteristic, and self-indulgent. I do not have the skills, means, or drive to make it real. You could call it a fantasy. Anarchy! Acts of terrors! Crimes against the public...

I dreamed that ashley and klonoa were recurring characters in a new season of spongebob

Having microgames scored on how well you do is something the PS Vita ripoff game Frobisher Says attempted, and it was super broken in that game. A microgame could have you either start right next to the objective, or on the other end of the map, but both variants would be scored the same way...

tbh after YIIK and the pirate software game, any indie RPG touting "warioware-inspired combat" is a legit red flag lol

Internal devs don't have this kind of sway in which games get rereleased, none of them worked on Wario World and the very deliberate ironic juxtaposition of generic movie trailer music with footage of the game's weirdness is pretty far removed from Japanese sensibilities lol

I love Mean Emcee's mug. It's such a "Wario" design. From what I've played of the game so far, I dunno who'd I pick from a mechanical POV. They're all kind of easy and mindless lol

The juxtaposition of the incredibly generic "epic" trailer music and Wario World being Wario World is divine. The editor deserves a raise.

My sister brought me a punch of Pikmin tat from Japan (Peppercat not included)!

What's the over or under on Metroid Prime 4 causing more Discourse than Metroid Other M.

WLII lacks strong iconography. Most of the worlds have generic themes and lack a vivid aesthetic (I find WLII feels unintentionally like a slightly surreal dead world while WLIII is intentionally so, if that makes sense), and with half of the bosses being generic giant spearman, most of the bits...

1: something like WL2 or WL3. those are my personal favourites WLs and none of the current Nintendo platformers are doing anything like those. 2: Do something completely OTT and make it a fully-assed single plane 2D beat em up. Something like Mad Stalker or Guardian Heroes

Perfect for when I run out of coal

Yesterday I beat It's a weird crossover and a weird game. It's a sidescroller shooter/bvrawler with some fun ideas (interacting with the background and Mortal Kombat-style special moves) and the bits that seem jank and impossible are doable with routing, but they didn't do themselves any...

This is a strong point. Compare DK getting high-quality animation of the funny crocodiles vs Wario being entirely stock-artwork of him with Deviantart-tier edits Can't they just bring back the Ashley shilling. I know some people here were real upset when it was new but I am unironically sure...

I was being sardonic so it's a somewhat flawed game but I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it!
