What the hell, Bandai.

How could you do this to your main character of one of your flagship franchises!?

Suletta being brown should not be ignored when making merchandise. We thought you knew better on this.

Yes, going by the prototype shots she's darker than Miorine still, but it's nowhere near accurate.
Please RT this btw, they shouldn't get away with blatant colorism and whitewashing like this for their main character ffs.
The figure in question isn't out until April.

They *can* fix it by then.
Japanese version of our tweet since it made little sense to only make one in English.

Well, Prime 3 was meant to be the last game. Prime 4 was only announced in 2017.

Metroid 4 to Metroid 5 is a better comparison because at least that was planned at the time and it took longer.
And of course, if you just count Metroid games, there's not even been much of a gap because before Dread there was Samus Returns and before that there was Federation Force, like it or not.

Metroid is not a good pick if you wanna do the "look how long the gap is" thing.
Also, Metroid Prime 4 have just hit 5 years since announcement which is arguably when you can *start* argue "this is taking long" given how long games take these days.

Rewatching Gravity Falls a decade later and while it's still a lot of fun and worth your time, it's honestly kind of baffling just how rigid the gender roles are and how much casual homophobia and transphobia appears in it as gags.
And yes, we know that the show wanted to be more progressive and was shut down by Disney on that at the time - that's kind of the point.

We've come a long way in just ten years.
We have *casual* queerness in kids cartoons from the big companies these days.

A decade ago the only time you could see anything remotely queer was if it was to be laughed at, like Dipper's first kiss being CPR with a Merman or gags about men in drag.

The animated prologue for Sonic Frontiers is out.
45 seconds in and we've confirmed Knuckles has not had any internet development on how he thinks about himself and his purpose in 24 years.
Which is funny since right after that Knuckles recap the clan's backstory from SA1.

Reminder that while it's fun to joke about No Nut November there's also a genuine belief in the most misogynist of incel groups that abstaining from masturbation gives you "Super Cum" that women can't resist.

If you can, nut this November to spite these fucks.
And no, we're sadly not joking about that being a belief those people hold. It fuels their entitlement to women's bodies too since if they're irresistible then obviously she's not resisting.

Cernovich's now infamous tweets were about this stuff.
We're also gonna link to this article, but keep in mind that it's behind a paywall.

“But A24 is good!”

Don’t care, it’s yet another fucking prequel origin thing for a series that never needed it.
Can you even think of a single horror franchise where a prequel origin story was at all worthwhile?

Well, we have a new PSU so it's only fair we get back to streaming.

RE2 at midnight tomorrow.
Poll Time! For our #ResidentEvil2 stream tonight, which scenario order should we play?

Claire A / Leon B or Leon A / Claire B?

Keep in mind, we have not played the RE2 remake outside of the pre-release preview.
For those who don't know, you have to play as both Claire and Leon in RE2, so you pick one for the first half of the game then get the other for the second half of the game.
