Old news.

[Endesu]

But I'm posting it here in the odds that some of you don't know about it.

Nintendo is releasing a Mario Basketball game on the DS... no surprises there...

And the characters so far seem to be a mix of Mario and Donkey Kong... no surprises there either...

So to pad out the cast, they threw in Final Fantasy characters.

The fuck. <p><hr />
<div style="text-align:center"><span style="font-size:xx-small;">Curtis: Dannyboy, look at you. You've changed considerably, into a badass, if I may.
Dan: Yeah, you've changed a lot too, into an old man! I went to see the devil, now it's your turn!
Curtis: Oh, my pupil, so tenacious of life, guess I have to kill you again.
Dan: Shut up, before you run out of breath!
Curtis: I got rid of those smiles, there's no one left to disturb our game. Just you, and me.
Dan: Sounds fair, 'cuz I hate holding back, even for an old fart like yourself.
Curtis: Talk all you want, I won't need six bullets for you.
Dan: Or four for you.</span>

Does this mean one of the power-ups is going to be a Kupo nut? <p>-----

Cactuses are tender. That's why they have spines.

If they didn't have spines, everything would be enjoying cactus a la mode. So the spines are to repel ice cream. <p>-----

Sabotender has always been the Japanese name from what I can tell; it would seem that saboten appears to be Japanese for cactus.


[edit] We also have Shyguy and Birdo as characters. [heart] <p>

There's a malboro tentacle as a usable item up there with the Slushie, too. <p><span style="font-size:xx-small;">"It's in the air, in the headlines in the newspapers, in the blurry images on television.

I imagine the white mages will dominate the game in a passing style until the black mages turn the game into one of movement and dunking, revolutionizing the entire sport.

Will the moogles be able to leap really high so you have to wait a turn for them to dunk the ball? <p>-----
