WALTER murdering fools on Raw

I saw people say things on the internet (so it must be true) that Game Freak's passion project that the A development team is on is Little Town Hero, and the B Team is on Pokemon Sword and Shield just treating it like a job. I'm generally fine with things like Mega Evolutions and Z-Moves and generation-specific traits or features not being in the game, and maybe even region-specific forms, but every version or generation should come with eventual access to all Pokemon and/or backwards compatibility with the previous generation somehow. Tbh I bet they were taught this by Sun/Moon. Sun/Moon didn't have the National Dex, you couldn't trade with X/Y even though it was the same platform and you had to pay for the Pokebank instead. They'll probs make you pay for DLC Pokemon packs the same way you do fighting game characters, or a National Dex or something.

I'ma sit this one out (acks gonna watch the anime so not totally) until either a) Third version or b) Confirmation that there is no third version

I think it's the pre-show. Only match that was on it was Bea Priestly vs Britt Baker (with the flu).

Link-kun Fuckkkkk, there's a lot happening. Without even reading anything, I've already got: - Pokemon (As always) - One Piece (As always) - Black Clover (Assuming it is continuing) - Vinland Saga - Dr Stone - My Hero Academia Season 4 - SAO Alicization Season 2 - War of Underworld - Psycho-Pass Season 3 (Been simul'ing S1 and 2) - High Score Girl Season 2 <3 (For real this anime is good shit, I barely ever played arcades and just fucking loved this deep dive into the Japanese arcade history) - Enen no Shouboutai/Fire Force (I might drop this one)

Rush and Dragon Lee joined AAA. Dragon Lee definitely has an avenue to AEW now.

2 or 3 songs of albums you've been listening to the last week.

I missed some pieces of Fabric somewhere and only did about 5 or 6 Devilish Mode levels before deciding not to do the rest. Definitely the best version of the game. It got flack back in the day for not allowing you to die but the challenge is more in not getting hit and losing your beads. Devilish Mode added death and an enemy who pops up and dogs you throughout the level, so that little bit that was missing from it is now here (I didn't do it because in order to collect everything, you have to beat every level without getting hit in this mode, Kirby in some ways and the UFO transformation in particular don't control well enough to bother with that). I ended up really liking the Dedede and Meta Knight Mini-games and kinda wished they included more levels in both. The space-shooter levels reminded me that I'm getting old as my hands start to hurt if I have to rapidly tap buttons (especially such a small device). There's a lot more in this game than I remember there being, cute and good music and a good-ass game but not really a great-ass game. It does make me look forward to playing Yoshi's Woolly World and Crafted World, which I do plan to do in the near future. Fire Emblem next, though.

MJF was on colour commentary on AEW Dark this week. I like how he's basically Young Jim Cornette and hating all the things Cornette does just because he knows it'll get him heat with that crowd. Also JESUS CHRIST as the end

God, that Cody promo They got me, I'm pulling for Cody Rhodes to win the title

Watching parts of the Wrestle Kingdom Press Conference. Ospreay started pushing that the double-title tournament wasn't that popular with the Osaka crowd and said him and Hiromu should be in the main event of one of the shows instead, and goes off how he's been put in every match and every tournament when they need someone to have a big moment. And then Jay White comes out for his press conference with Naito, interrupts the press conference introduction to absolutely bury Ospreay, mentioning he hasn't won any of the tournaments he's been in put in and his big wins are limited, and tells him to stop whining about having to work so hard and just stop taking the opportunities if you don't want them. Fucking natural heel. I don't know if this is going to lead somewhere (it would tip off that Jay White is winning the double titles, and I don't think that's gonna happen at the Dome), but that felt so natural that even if they're not, they should start going that direction.

Oh man, that last match on NXT

I think Jericho just loves attention no matter what. I know I'll be listening to it

@Garlic Junior I think it's in Part 3

Haven't seen it if it makes him sympathetic in any way, I don't think I want to see it

I'd be skipping out on that one next time

Got to it a bit late. NXT is good wrestling (that fucking finish to Trevor Lee/Tyler Bate) but I'm starting to feel staleness from it. Some of the matches are wayyyyy too long too.

They'd call up NXT guys in the event of a unionization, but then they have no one on NXT able to war with AEW. Also the people trying to unionize would get fired, which means a dispersal of high-quality talent with WWE-television exposure suddenly available for AEW, RoH, Impact, NJPW's American expansion, the UK indy scene, AAA etc.
