Warner Bros. Discovery has to be the most catastrophically self-destructive merger I've ever seen. It's not enough that loads of shows and films are casually thrown away. We might just end up seeing the end of Cartoon Network entirely due to Zaslav's deliberate carelessness.

Alright y'all Klonoa fans out there have begged for years on end for the series to return in some fashion. Don't let this end up like the Wii remake where the sales didn't live up to the preceding fan hype. MONEY TALKS. BUY THIS KLONOA PACK. I know I will be!

Was watching some stuff on Mr. Enter lately. I honestly can't believe I ever saw him as a valid animation critic in high school If he thinks writing positive reviews is too hard and has no respect for what goes into animation, what makes him think he'll be a succeeding creative?

On the website for the original Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 64, there is a set of e-card animations based around six characters from the game. These are Flash animations that don't appear to have ever been shown anywhere else. Here's a thread of GIF versions you can view.

Ok. I normally keep the language on my twitter relatively safe. But I had trouble sleeping, so I played a bit of Mario Kart Tour. My eyes just shot the hell up after finishing a race. This is an official Nintendo game with no multiplayer of any sorts yet. And yet... ...wtf?

When your very first game is PROVEN to be far more appealing and consumer-friendly than what you've been doing since, maybe crafting the best Angry Birds experiences possible isn't what your goal is.

I enjoyed Sonic Boom but I always felt the CGI could have been better. Probably comes from the limitations of doing this for TV, but the 2D drawings look like they'd sell the scenes a lot more. That's what I liked about the Archie comic, too.

Apparently there's existing animated videos from Atsushi Saito related to a scrapped Pac-Man World game from 2010. This is...very surreal. I could only have imagined how this would've turned out if it was made.

Just had an intriguing Twitter chat with one of the Arcade Archives people Apparently to both our surprises, it seems Bandai Namco had Ms. Pac-Man's sprites changed so she resembles (or IS, rather) Pac-Mom from Pac-Man Museum+ I guess this will also apply to the Museum+ version

I was a cameraman for the Ellen show and one time she came up to me and asked if I wanted a hertz donut; I was hungry since I didn't eat breakfast so I was like "yea". Then she stomped on my ribcage, pulled out a gun, shot me 87 times and asked "hertz, don't it?" I laughed.

A few months ago, I saw someone posted a video clip of the Kenny James (VA of Bowser) doing a Hank Hill impression during a panel with Samantha Kelly (Peach/Toad/Toadette). During the past week, I figured I'd finally animate over it. Enjoy! @kennyjamesvoice

And some of the meta "humor" is just copy-pasting internet comments into a script. The Velma teaser not only didn't even try to mask it, but had the title character act incredibly out of character as a result of it.

Meanwhile, Nintendo Power LOVED Klonoa. If there were any copies sold in the USA, it's likely because of the their glowing, thorough coverage. It got a wide preview spread, a 9/10 review, further mentions in future issues, and the character showed up in the Star Power feature.

Today marks 20 years since the release of...well, a 20th Anniversary game for Pac-Man. Although Pac-Man World wasn't my first venture with the Man, I can't deny the influences this franchise wouldn't have had if not for this game. Plus, it's quite a fun title in its own right.

If there is any time for Klonoa to finally get the recognition it deserves, it is NOW. Like I've said before, everyone that's been clamoring for the remasters to be made *better* be buying it. And I hope platformer fans less familiar get curious enough to give the Klonoas a go.
