The Nerd Thread (comics, movies, anime, cartoons, video games, lore, fun stuff, ect.)

Nintendo released a Direct showcasing the new Donkey Kong attraction at Universal Theme Park Japan; all I can say is I’m jealous and wish I could go to Japan.

It’s been “relevant” for so long that it’s practically meaningless now. Yeah a future where women are treated solely as cows is awful, but the institutions are so resistant to change that no form of resistance works to stop it from happening. They’re basically antibiotic-resistant bacteria.

A New Look at Mega Man and Dr. Light in Amazon’s Secret Level

It looks…fine?

@SleepySteve
Although it Does kinda look like a real human kid looking at a statue

Yeah. Dr. Light’s beard looks plastic.

“Ok, before I take whatever that is, will it cause me to be abandoned forever on the moon?”
“What? No. I can’t imagine why you’d think something like that.”

Even in the most isolated nation on Earth, you cannot escape furry culture:

If it can reach the The Hermit Kingdom, you ain’t gonna escape it.

@CaptainXtra
Apparently North Korea actually kidnapped a bunch of Japanese anime studio animators to make those cartoons

@northern haste
Got a sneak peek for the Concord one?

@Icicle Niceicle 1517
Interesting.

Instead of asking China or Russia to send over some animation teams to show NK locals how to animate properly, they just yanked some poor Japanese artists.

to be completely fair…furry-ness has been since ancient goddamn cultures all around the globe, and it ain’t stopping anytime soon.

we could be in goddern space age and we’d still have / be furries.

especially if you extend the definition of a furry to include anything non-pure-human, including mecha, cyborgs, sentient plants, and ppl with weird or extreme prosthetics.

Suck it Musk

IMO social media in general has done more damage to society regardless of platform. What we really need to do is shut everything down. Facebook, Threads, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, you name it. Besides, they’ve never been representative of real life or “the world” writ large.

The Outer Worlds 2 according to Secret Level.

What Do You mean, TWO? It’s not even out yet–matter fact I don’t think we even have a gameplay trailer or a release date for it yet!

Obsidian’s kinda busy with AVOWED right now. You know, their answer to Bethesda’s Elder Scrolls titles, the way The Outer Worlds was their answer to Bethesda’s Fallout…and…in foresight…Starfield.

Bro it’s not even–HOW are you claiming these are beloved titles when we ain’t experienced them yet, Secret Level?

This is insane. Is crazy. I guess Outer Worlds 2 and Exodus gonna have Secret Level do their trailers for them.

Metal Sonic, Amy Rose, or Silver, those are my main guesses

@Icicle Niceicle 1517
GOD PLEASE LET IT BE AMY!

@Angrybrony
I feel like if Metal Sonic is the villain of the 4th film then Amy will surely be in it too, especially since both of them debuted in the same game

Betting my onion rings that it’s Blaze.

There are rumors, read rumors with a big, big pinch of salt, that they might be working with IDW for a crossover.

Which would mean the new character could also be from the comics.

Maybe even a certain campy platypus.

I have considerable doubts about that, and I’m definitely leaning toward Metal, as it would make the most sense.

@Icicle Niceicle 1517
said the same thing about shadow.

I just now have realized that some tire measurement on a tire sidewall is kinda hilarious.

Rim diameter is in inches, tire width in milimeters and the sidewall height is in percentage.

I can’t help but laugh.

@CaptainXtra
Try to avoid betting to much or you’ll go into ring debt.

@tehwatever
I’m pretty sure Starfield was in reaction to Outer Worlds.
And none of what you said comes close to the sheer insanity of the Concord episode.
An episode to promote a game that died in the blink of an eye that is still part of the line up.
