Crazy Frog Racer on the GBA was originally supposed to be a Mario Kart game called Mario Kart XXL. It was a rejected game concept when shown to Nintendo because Mario Kart Super Circuit had already been out for years.


Prototype looked like this so no wonder it was rejected.

This is the game we got instead.

Sonic was originally supposed to have a human love interest named Madonna, but was scrapped due to the developers realizing that her role would not fit in the Sonic universe.

Then Sonic X and Sonic Adventure came...

Let alone 06 where he literally gets a human love interest (afaik).

Yeah Sonic 06 was weird for making him fall in love with a princess.

Yellow Kirby was nicknamed by the devs as Keeby. It was given to him just so the 2nd player you control in Kirby's Dream Course had a name

Did you know that the Game Boy was able to defeat everyone in the competition in the handheld market due to it being cheap, and a longer battery life as the Game Gear and the Atari Lynx despite them being in color.

The reason why Sonic can't swim is because one of his creators thought that real life hedgehogs can't swim.

They can actually.

Collage of Winterhold in Skyrim has very diffrent arcitecture then any other building. It was build it the Second Era and I dont think Nords build it because look around Skyrim, no stuff like this. The only maybe similar building is High Hrothgar, they kinda look alike, but still very unique (this isnt weird but just cool as fuck)

The full and original Japanese title for Pokemon is Poketto Monsuta, which translates to Pocket Monsters.

In pokemon mystery dungeon red/blue rescue team, skitty is probably the best pokemon you can receive from the quiz. This is because of its ability cute charm. in the main line games, cute charm is kind ehh, but red/blue rescue team did not have a gender feature implemented. essentially all pokemon were genderless, so cute charm worked on ALL pokemon. if you aren't familiar with the ability, it makes it so when your pokemon gets attacked by a pokemon of the opposite gender it has the opportunity to get the infatuated status. Which makes the opposing pokemon stop attacking for a few turns. Bosses can also get the infatuation status which just makes it crazier. Future mystery dungeon titles implemented gender so cute charm stopped being as busted.
Tldr having no gender mechanic made skitty super powerful in the original pokemon mystery dungeons
AaLright YOUR TURN GO

no

ohhh what's this?

don’t know if anybody already mentioned this but if you’re on half a heart in the binding of Isaac and you’re holding the item kidney stone whenever you enter a room when you piss yourself the pee will turn red.

You can freeze original Metroid for the NES if you input the password:


ENGAGE RIDLEY

MOTHER FUCKER


and if you do it in the Nintendo Switch Online Service, you can crash the app.


Tits dude
