The Progress of the Virtual Console, Week of 6/16/13

Sun, 16 Jun 2013 23:53:30 -0400

This week’s been… quite the something. It’s had its ups and downs, and they’ve ALL kept me busy.

Some were expected. I pointed out E3 in my last progress report, and boy did it deliver! I don’t think I need to recap. Just to revel in the magic~

But later in the week it got a little stormy and busy and, uh, I actually legit fainted yesterday…

And the scramble begins anew this week. Mom wants to get that little episode checked out, and I don’t blame her. Then it’s my parents’ silver anniversary, and then I’ll be hanging out with some people a couple days… oh, dang, and New Leaf is expected on my doorstep this week (shh I want the physical copy because I’m dumb).

I admit to sometimes slipping on my quotas again, but not always. And today, I’ve actually been drafting a potential scene for several chapters ahead of now??? So, you know.

And I think another thing that’s on the back of my mind is that I want to take this chapter in a bit of a different direction, tone-wise. So I’m seeing what I can do about that. It’ll become clear when it gets here.

In summary:

—This really was a Big Week.

—Chapter 8 drafting continues, despite delays…

—Time of next update still unclear.

professormarin:

In the Legend of Zelda animated series, Zelda actually was in love with Link. She doesn’t “kind of” like him. She loves him.

In one of the episodes, Link was somehow a spirit. No one could see him. Except Zelda. Later in the episode, Ganon remarks that the only way she could possibly see him is if she was in love with him. And, well, you know what that means…

My Bedsheets Are Ready

One lucky Redditor was fortunate enough to StreetPass Nintendo of America President and Chief Operating Officer Riggie Fils-Aime during E3. One of the new features of Animal Crossing: New Leaf is being able to walk into model homes of other players tat you StreetPass. And what’s in Reggie’s Animal Crossing house? Oh, just a bed with HIS FREAKING FACE ON IT!!!

The Redditor goes on to say, “His mayor card literally says “My body is ready.” There’s also a full room of pretty much every Nintendo item in the game.”

bradofarrell:

This year at E3 during the Xbox panel during a scripted “trash talk” bit someone made a scripted rape joke (male gamer to girl gamer who sucks at a game: “just wait, it’ll all be over soon.”) and then they acted like it wasn’t a big deal and then they released an expensive, anti-consumer (DRM on physical games) piece of hardware. And then Sony just released the PS4 which is just the PS3 but better graphics and $100 cheaper than the Xbox. So THAT happened.

But then Nintendo just quietly released a bunch of great looking sequels for all of it’s major franchises (Mario, Pikmin, Donkey Kong, and Smash Bros.) and every single one of those games interestingly features playable female characters who haven’t been seen in decades like Dixie Kong and Princess Peach - and Pikmin now has a new female hero.

One of my favorite things about Peach in the new Mario game is that one of the power ups is a literal “cat suit” and Peach’s “cat suit” doesn’t sexualize her at ALL. You can’t even see her boobs. She just looks like she’s wearing over-sized footie pajamas it’s so cute. Also they added a pink letter to the Mario logo just to accommodate Peach’s re-inclusion into the franchise as a character with actual agency!

So at the end of the presentation they tell you to go to the Smash Bros website to find out about new characters. And then they announced this character, Wii Fit Trainer, on the site. And in an interview the director said he gets thousands of requests for almost every video game character under the sun and he’s gotten absolutely zero requests for this character and he put her in the game to be funny and defy fan expectation. This character is literally “hey fuck you we’re the ones making the games around here, and we’ll be goofy and funny if we want to and also check it out another female character in Smash.”

Also the inclusion of the Animal Crossing villager is interesting because Animal Crossing is VERY popular with girls and even though the villager is male I’m 100% certain his alternate costumes will include the girl default villager character. So that’s neat. The three Smash characters they announced were two girl(ish) characters from two girl(ish) games and then Mega Man.

Also in the new Animal Crossing game boys are allowed to cross dress and all of the animals are explicitly genderqueer in the dialog. Characters say stuff like “Boys can ware make up if they want to, I mean, it’s 2013, who cares?” and just today a jock rhino was looking deeply into my eyes and asking me to hike a football and I asked him if he loved me (which was one of the option out of other options about sports) and he was like “Oh I guess a lot can happen when you look into someone else’s eyes like that, huh?” He didn’t even care that we’re both guys. Also in the new Pokemon game you can be black.

Basically what I’m saying is Nintendo is quietly and systematically making their games more socially progressive and Microsoft made a rape joke and then said “what? it was a joke.”
