Hello! 🙋
Recently, I discovered a very cool web port of Taiko no Tatsujin called "Taiko Web". You can play both official charts and custom charts on it! It inspired me to make my own custom chart of "... Vista". I don't have much experience with making charts, so it's probably rough, but I enjoyed making it and I wanted to share it. Currently, there is an Oni difficulty and a Hard difficulty. I may tweak the chart at a later date to improve it, such as by making the Hard difficulty easier or adding a normal difficulty.

SplatHex displays Damage Up for All Gear

Watch out for this SplatHex bug! Even though octoglasses' main ability is last-ditch effort, SplatHex shows damage up as the main ability! This is purely a display bug, and all gears' main ability will always be correct in-game.

The Original Mew Glitch

On November 6th 2021, Did You Know Gaming uploaded a video about the origins of Mew. This video made me aware of an Iwata Asks interview with GameFreak published after the release of HeartGold and SoulSilver. They began by talking about how the Pokémon series became popular. Ishihara said that Mew played an extremely significant role in the first pair of games' rise to fame. Morimoto then stated:

How to Make Custom 3DS Mega Badges

Nintendo Badge Arcade is a free-to-play game for the 3DS in which you play a crane game to unlock badges to decorate your 3DS's home menu with. By Installing custom firmware to the 3DS users can make their own custom badges out of 64 by 64 pixel PNGs. There is a special kind of badge called the mega badge; it's made up of two or four normal badges, but the parts appear as one badge when viewed on the top...

If you're learning marketing and you're worried you're not good enough, know you're better than these Klonoa ads

Two magazine ads for Klonoa, a mascot platforming game. The first ad has a greyscale photo of two adults kissing. The second ad has large text that says: Quite possibly the only thing weirder than your sister.

I just finished my marketing course, which was required for my itech degree. I've always been wary of business, so I was worried that I wouldn't "get" marketing at all. I had no idea what to write in my paper... then I remembered something that gave me confidence; these advertisements.

Someone was paid to come up with these.

So, no matter how little I know about marketing, I still know more than these paid designers who worked for a prominent game company, so I think that's a pretty good accomplishment. 😊
