I'd like to thank this game for what it did for mental health, not because of the actual contents but because pfps from this game and its sequel make it easy to identify people who would damage it

Good enough game but its "commentary" on violence in video games has the same energy as those "ironic" political memes that are literally just the creator's unedited opinion

WARNING: THIS PORT OF ACE ATTORNEY: APOLLO JUSTICE COMES WITH TWO VIRUSES THAT CLAIM TO BE GAMES CALLED "DUAL DESTINIES" AND "SPIRIT OF JUSTICE", DO NOT OPEN EITHER OF THEM UP BECAUSE THEY WILL BRICK YOUR CONSOLE/PC

Carried by the silly little dancing animations

I think there might be a game from around the same time that this was inspired by but I can't quite put my finger on it, the inspiration must be really subtle

Imagine your legacy being getting added to the first Mario Kart before never returning except for the scummy gacha spin-off and also being fuel for bad fan theories

More like "Penis," am I right?

Need to have a serious talking to with the Nintendo employee who thought people would be willing to go through one hundred levels of this shit

You ever think about how someone sat down, played this game, and thought "Man, I want this weirdly specific version of Mario to be playable in Smash"

Goes unbelievably hard if you're a specific type of unhinged

Peak fiction

Obviously lives in the shadow of the highly impactful sequel that's a true masterpiece of the medium, Hunt Down The Freeman, but still a really good game on its own merits

I used to think it was weird that Breath of Fire never made it into any Capcom's crossover fighters but now that I've played the first one for a nonzero amount of time, I totally get why. Anyone at Capcom who tried to play this to get an idea of what the character's moveset would be would get bored to death after like an hour or two.

Kuja's battle theme goes so hard when you first heard it in an RPGmaker Sonic fangame you played when you were like 8 and permanently associate it with said fangame

I was part of a focus group for the GameCube version of Super Paper Mario. The game was so bad that every other person who played it died painfully, causing Nintendo to delay the game and move it to the Wii so that the necessary fixes could be made. I am the sole survivor of the GameCube Super Paper Mario Massacre.
