| Super Mario Galaxy did perfect camera controls for a 3d platforming game though, so I'm not worried about SMO one bit. |

| I actually disagree. I remember times when the camera got stuck behind a planet I was on the other side of, or when I couldn't tell what direction I'd move in. Such things made me think that camera movement had gone downhill for the series. I was at least partly wrong, of course. |

| Hmm..maybe you just got some real bad luck there? As I don't remember anything like that happening for me. |

| Balla... I also secretly prefer Super Mario 64 to Mario Galaxy. I hope I said that at some point previously, as it feels like sticking up for the underdog. I basically like any game that gives me nooks and crannies and goes "hey, find 500 things in this place". But don't get me wrong - like the centrist appeasing loser I apparently am - Mario Galaxy / Mario Galaxy 2 is the second best thing ever. There's so much imagination in Mario Galaxy that I feel ashamed I can't recollect it all. |

| Yes. That exactly. It's just that, being the joyless automaton I am, I value freedom and exploration over imagination. |

| Here's my review of King Oddball, the cheap'n'cheerful Switch physics-based puzzler. Think Angry Birds with a giant malevolent boulder swinging rocks around with his tongue. |

| My review of Rime is now up and is certainly worth a look for all of you on Switch. |

| The second of my pieces on SMO, SM64, and SMG. Relatively spoiler-free, with the exception of one clearly-marked section. |

| I've pretty majorly rejigged the front page of www.gintendo.co.uk
I think it looks better, I think it lets people get at our content better and I think it will lessen the blow when someone uploads something right after someone else. |

| You know how the average person's first reaction to change is, 'It was fine how it was, now I don't understand it, it's automatically bad'? I'm not doing that. Massive improvement. Well done sir. |

| Maybe a "your mum is fat" joke was a poor choice in an article about the objectification of women? |

| I'd hoped it was poking fun at the type of joke rather than the women featured in the type of joke... but I see your point and will make the edit. Would welcome your other thoughts! |

| For the most part I was on board, though there were a few that I felt you were too harsh on. Specifically the "elegant dress" designs, which I like the look of and don't feel are so much of an issue where magical sword beings are concerned. I presume physically armour is meaningless to them, so why wouldn't they dress pretty?
Pyra's look is dumb though. |

| I'm guessing that means Brighid and Pandy? With Brighid, I feel that a bit of décolletage would suit, and indeed provide elegance... but that a dress transparent the whole way down goes beyond elegance a tad. Pandy's less of an open (dress) and shut case, though, and I can see defences for both of them. Cheers for the feedback! Didn't know if anyone would read a SJW piece on a game they hadn't finished, so I am grateful. |

| I've been a busy bee! Been posting some travel writings/ adventure stories/ general musings about my trip under my A Luke At Japan subheading. I'm just writing the post which will go up tomorrow, about Game Party Japan 2018, which I attended on Saturday. On that subject, I wrote a more general thing about Nintendo and Esports. I'll probably do a video about specifically the Splatoon parts of my time at GPJ2018, but I already did a little vid collating all the Splatoon stuff I spotted my first week in Japan. Although there's not much point putting that stuff on youtube, I do way better on the Splatoon facebook groups |

| Are you planning to keep it as your pinned tweet while you're in Japan, Drunka? It's where I've been accessing it up till now. |
