jthrash's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Legend of Trixie: Trixie of the Kingdom - "Fusing"]

This is definitely the sort of magnificently-stupid Internet joke I would want to see fully animated with sound effects!

[Larry the Little Mushroom]

Livin' like Larry

[Rayman Returns]

I could be sad that Ubisoft abandoned this colorful series for generic open world games, OOORRR I could just take advantage of the fact I could pirate every single version of Rayman 2 and Ubisoft won't care enough to try and stop me!

[Yoshi's Metamorphosis]

It's not the transformation itself, so much as the horrible things Internet kink artists on DeviantArt will do with said transformation.

[Cheeky Brooke at the range]

Okay, but why are her pants down? Is that allowed on the shooting range? I am but a sissy liberal, so I don't know how these shooting ranges work...

MLeth responds:

Brooke's ways are a mystery.. We'll have to observer her more to understand her!

[Vaporwave Undertale AU]

I dunno, something about that flower on the left makes me uneasy...

[Demitri]

The grin of a filthy used car salesman...

[LINK GOES ON A IMPORTANT QUEST TO TAKE KIRBY TO A WALK!]

I just like Pyra stalking in the corner.

[BOLD BEAGLE]

If the heroes don't immediately shatter his ego by joking he's like Snoopy from Peanuts, I will be disappointed.

RoseTheVixen responds:

Prepare to be disappointed because that idea sucks!

[Street Fighter 6 GBC version]

Ahh, Game Boy Color ports, back when companies at least tried to make their games work on more limited hardware. Most of these official "demakes" were still garbage in the end, of course, but they are still more fascinating and interesting garbage than a Switch port of a relatively basic-looking PS4/PS5 game that somehow can't even manage 20 FPS most of the time.

Although between the (briefly) Switch-exclusive fun of Monster Hunter Rise and the fact that the OG Resident Evil 4 still holds up surprisingly well despite getting a remake, I can definitely see modern Capcom pulling off a SF6 demake (and just doing it for the fun and challenge), because modern Capcom is awesome like that, compared to where they were in the 2010's.

Excellent job on this, although I would imagine if this actually existed in a parallel universe, it would be a bit easier to pull off an 8-bit Street Fighter on the Neo Geo Pocket Color than the GBC.

SuperPhil64 responds:

Absolutely, the good ones were an outlier. Likely because the portable version devs were given chump change and a month to make that version. But on the rare occasion they got the time and budget they needed and defied the odds it made for some shockingly good and fascinating games. Like Mario Golf on GBC, Donkey Kong Land3 or Banjo Kazooie Grunty's Revenge. That said SF on a 2 button system is almost bout to play like butts unless the controls are significantly tweaked. I never played the GB and GBA versions, I wonder how they do play.
