I’m sure it’ll be a good, cute movie but I have zero fondness for the Galaxy games…because I never played them. Rented the first but only a few stages.

I have Odyssey. Beat it. I think I should play the Galaxy games first to connect with it. People say they’re iconic. I guess it’s true, they based the movie on it.

I don't understand why you haven't tried them. They just recently remastered them in HD on Switch. There's no reason not to play them.

Brie Larson is definitely some kind of industry plant or nepo-baby right?

You do realize not everyone owns a Switch.

Switch 1 came out in 2017. If anyone hasn't had one by now after 7 years then they just must not care about games. The Galaxy remasters are also Switch 1 games, so you don't need a Switch 2 for them either.

Seriously is everyone here a casual gamer or something? So many of you are years or even decades behind on games. I must be too used to ResetEra and reddit where people buy the biggest games every year.

A pretty solid 8 years at this point, nearly 9. But it's not as bad as the PS4 users who act like it's still so impossible to get a PS5, and how PS4 is still their gold standard. It's a TWELVE year old system. PS5 has been out for FIVE years. If you aren't able to scrounge together some money to get it yet, idk what to say to you. You can still sell your PS4 and be nearly halfway there, right off the bat.

I know they remastered them but I don’t have them. Wasn’t planning of spending $70 on games at the moment. I have a few I haven’t played.

Never bothered with Nintendo consoles past the SNES, when it started being more Nintendo and less third party. Just the fact the N64 and Game Cube having no Street Fighter games despite the fact that the SNES SF2 turned the tide in their favor for a while during the console wars.

Same here. I briefly had an N64 but it was something I stumbled into while working at a FuncoLand decades ago. I kept it for maybe 3 months and traded it in. I think we mostly played GoldenEye on it.

Last month, I met both Kenny James and Samantha Kelly, the longtime voices of Bowser and Princess Peach and Toad, respectively at a convention. Kenny told me he did not see the first movie, but Samantha said she did and she enjoyed Anya Taylor-Joy and Keegan-Michael Key’s performances as Peach and Toad. I told them that I wish they had some involvement in the movie like Charles Martinet, the longtime voices of Mario and Luigi did. Kenny told me he heard that Charles wasn’t thrilled about Chris Pratt and Charlie Day doing his characters. I can understand why Charles would’ve been disappointed, but it was good of Universal and Illumination to have him voice Mario and Luigi’s dad, other family members, and the character where he got to do his iconic voice. I’m sure he was told ahead of time that this would happen unlike the late Janet Waldo whose dialogue as Judy Jetson in Jetsons: The Movie was replaced by Tiffany and Matthew Lillard, Grey DeLisle, and Kate Miccuci, who were not told that they wouldn’t be reprising their roles as Shaggy, Daphne, and Velma, respectively in Scoob!

ETA: I think some archive audio of Samantha Kelly was used for the other Toads in the Mushroom Kingdom.

Street Fighter died for like 10 years until 4 came out in 2009. I don't know why you'd skip good games or consoles otherwise.

The amount of casuals in this thread is staggering. I must be spending too much time on ResetEra and reddit where people buy every major game day 1 and have decades of discussion over it.

I jumped ship to the PS1 and PS2. Tekken, SoulCalibur, KOF, Capcom VS SNK and such took over for me.

You missed out on some groundbreaking games. Fighters are fun, but only sticking with fighting games gets old after awhile.
