I think it's too early to be talking about the possibility of a reboot of G4. Though I do think there's a possibility of improving things with hindsight in mind. Two characters that would benefit a lot from a reboot would probably be Celestia and RD

If we doing movies and TV shows too

Since the 30th anniversary of the show is approaching it's a good excuse for me to gush about G Gundam. G Gundam is a ridiculous show that strays far from what the Gundam series was known for at the time, instead of a science fiction war drama focused on mecha, to basically a shonen anime that's a lot more over the top and goofy, some people going as far as to call it "Gundam Ball Z" which honestly isn't off the mark. It's full of stereotypes of different countries, with some of the best and some of the most bizarre Gundam designs out there.

It's also one of the best Gundam series that's earnest with how over the top it is and is still full of heart
Heads up; GIF and video overload
 

Transformers One trailer. Looks great

Marathoned BNA. Was pretty good. Being a Gurren Lagann fan and the fact the it's made by the same studio(sorta), a series dedicated to a race of beings called "beastmen" threw me off for a bit.

Wish there was more of it

- Season 4 of Transformers Animated is official
- Bayverse Sideswipe sticks around for the rest of the movies, just because
- Give EQG a proper conclusion
- More Pony Life
- slap whoever greenlit Newbie Dash and replace it with something else
- Power Rangers animated show that’s close to the comics
- For the love of god finish the Ranger teams still incomplete in the Lightning Collection. At the very least give me LSR Red and Titanium Rangers

Star Fox Adventures is one of my favorite entries in the series despite it being completely different(an adventure game in a series of space combat) and I really wish they'd at least try something similar to that in the future, especially after the monotony of back to back SF64 remakes. I'd love to see something expanded on Adventures but more focused on space-faring and exploring the other planets

Conversely, Mega Man X7 is probably the worst game in the entire series and that was a game that tried to make the shift to 3D and just does everything badly. Game controls badly, the 3D is implemented poorly and the targeting system is terrible. The fact that Mega Man Legends predates it only makes this worse, while yes it's fundamentally different from regular Mega Man games it's proof that the series can work in 3D and X could probably try to fit that formula with some adjustments. Funnily enough, Command Mission came out a year later and was still a much better game despite being a completely different genre

I used to keep them until finances and storage became an issue. That said there isn’t a moment where I don’t regret selling my old games, especially my GC Collection 

I’m still in the camp that DBZ could and should have continued with Gohan being the new hero 

Also Transformers, G1 infamously killed off Optimus Prime much of the G1 lineup and replaced with Rodimus and others like Arcee and Ultra Magnus, didn’t go so well. Looking back though it probably would’ve been better had they stuck with Rodimus especially since the episode before Optimus’s return had Rodimus finally accept his role. On the subject of Optimus, Rescue Bots is probably the best example of the franchise being able to stand out on its own without needing the mainstays

There's the forced ads now and blocking you from using the site if you use adblocker. I can bypass it on desktop by using uBlock, but on my phone it's outright unusable, every one or two minutes are interrupted by unskippable ads, some going longer than 30 seconds. We all know they're only doing this to get more people to use Youtube Premium. No I don't want another pointless subscription

Also How much Youtube loves to push blatant clickbait, often based on the videos you watch, either some fake outrage, bad takes or pushing some dumb narratice "oh you liked Breath of the Wild, well how about a video titled 'Breath of the Wild is actually an objectively terrible game and if you like it your dumb and don't know what a good game is'? "Oh you liked these Marvel clips from your favorite shows or movies? Well here's 'How WOKE are DESTROYING Marvel by having WOMEN'"

That garbage is the absolute worst and is just making the site miserable. I don't care about some dumbass crusade, I just want to watch cool and funny videos :/

Would have been a million times better if they dropped the whole Juniper thing and just focused entirely on Starlight and Sunset hanging out

How things just can't be simple anymore. Games releasing unfinished; game being constantly delisted or even being revoked; everything needing to cost money; games being a live-service then dying after a year; just about everything needing to cost money, even things that were just simple unlockables; thousands of layoffs and studio closures despite the industry making more money than ever

I hate this phrase because people just use it for things they dislike getting popular, but I it actually holds true: free-to-play and mobile gaming has done irreparable damage to the gaming industry

Probably the Dazzlings, they’re very fun and have good songs

Just got done watching X-Men '97. This show has gone beyond nostalgia bait and might be one of the best ways to revive a show ever. This show really grew up with its audience and being able to do things it could never do in the original run. I was not emotionally prepared for episode 5

28 Pranks Later being a Discord episode instead of a RD episode. Probably would have made 100x more sense

Went to Midwest Gaming Classic yesterday 

Not my wisest purchase but hey, I’m happy

both games I need to get around to actually finishing 

Captain Falcon is back

beca of course 

Got my Foxhound pin back 

Mega Man X8, the leap in quality between it and X7, from the visuals to the presentation to the controls and gameplay is insane

Those Kiryu-Chan and Whompy Whomperson guys, those two are awfully familiar....

Bros from different continuities are still bros.

Also The Yetee continues to deliver

A lot of people on the internet talk about how bad G5 is. Is there anyone here who genuinely likes G5? And I don't mean just the movie. I mean G5 as a whole.

Define a lot of people. Like actually a lot of people or just the circles you frequent? It's been a hot debate on Twitter to the point EQD had to make a whole post calling out people apparently sending death threats to fans of G5. Obviously people like it to the point G4 fanboys are bothered by it

As for me, it's not for me, at least enough to watch it regularly, but I've liked what I've seen, and I still believe that the movie was the best MLP movie we've ever had

Newbie Dash gets obliterated from existence and is replaced with something that isn't a giant middle finger to RD

the best characters of the last Dragon Ball movie 

We do not accept Mega Man 8 or Mega Man X5 slander in my household

EQG is usually pretty inconsistent on who's a human and who isn't. Iirc, the only other species we saw Diamond Dogs became human, but we never saw any of the changelings, hippogriffs, griffins, yaks, zebra, etc.(though going by the toys, Zecora and Chrysalis probably had human forms as well)

Anyway, I hope the portal wasn't selective with who became human, the idea of Ember or Smolder becoming human while Spike becomes a dog sounds like a really nasty double standard

At one point I did, mostly around the time S6 was airing. EQG declined significantly as well though I stuck around for the shorts which I was still enjoying and hey, I actually watched the finale for EQG which at least has that going for it

For what it's worth, the SNES version the download on the 3DS virtual console is the only way I bother to play it due to saves.  Definitely don't have the patience or self-loathing to play it like the pros.

Oh and for fun, when I'm playing the USA Mario 2, this is the arrangement I use to get equal contribution credits for each character:
World 1: Toad (2x) and Luigi

World 2: Mario and Luigi (2x)

World 3: Toad, Mario and Peach

World 4: Peach (2x) and Mario

World 5: Luigi (2x) and Toad

World 6: Mario, Peach and Toad

World 7: Peach and Mario

NSO version has a rewind feature as well
