[12:00 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Uh...

[12:00 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: ...We're starting in theory?

[12:00 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Oh there we are.

[12:00 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Day 3.

[12:00 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: SOMETHING NOT IN THE DIRECT

[12:00 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: ARCADE ARCHIVES DONKEY KONG

[12:00 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: ...oh.

[12:01 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Is this here because of Billy Mitchell?

[12:02 PM] RawkHawk2010: Is NTDOY about to drop again?

[12:02 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Jumpman just died.

[12:03 PM] RawkHawk2010: btw downloaded the Shining Resonance Refrain demo.

[12:03 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: "First official release of the arcade version"

[12:03 PM] RawkHawk2010: Never played a Shining.

[12:04 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: There's an Early Version (glitch) and Later Version, and International (American) Version included.

[12:05 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Online leaderboards.

They're referencing Billy Mitchell indirectly.

[12:08 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Mari0 can telepathically control where the barrels go, and this power increases the further you go in the game. So it gets easier.

[12:09 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: (This is in the original arcade)

[12:10 PM] RawkHawk2010: Dude named Pauline after his (now ex) wife.

[12:10 PM] RawkHawk2010: Or (now ex wife) girlfriend.

[12:11 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: The springs are my least favourite part of DK Arcade.

[12:13 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Where is the timer?

[12:14 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Is it BONUS?

[12:14 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: There's another reveal this segment.

[12:15 PM] RawkHawk2010: Donkey Kong Circus?

[12:15 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: First official North American release of the game "Sky Skipper"

[12:15 PM] RawkHawk2010: Is that Donkey Kong?

It's a gorilla guest star, but it's not a Kong.

[12:15 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: I've never heard of it.

[12:16 PM] RawkHawk2010: wtf

[12:16 PM] RawkHawk2010: That gorilla resembles the Rare DK more than the original Donkey Kong does.

[12:17 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Miyamoto drew the cabinet art.

[12:18 PM] RawkHawk2010: Game doesn't exactly look good.

[12:18 PM] RawkHawk2010: I wonder if Billy Mitchell would like it.

[12:19 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Collect card suits in your plane while dropping bombs on bomb-throwing gorillas.

[12:20 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: The bombs you drop are apparently tranquilisers.

[12:21 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: The gorillas curse.

[12:21 PM] RawkHawk2010: "Damn it. I'LL ESCAPE..." - gorilla

This is why Donkey Kong doesn't talk outside of grunts nowadays. CENSORSHIP.

[12:22 PM] RawkHawk2010: Do you get hurt if you touch a wall?

[12:22 PM] RawkHawk2010: Yes.

[12:22 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: ...yes.

[12:22 PM] RawkHawk2010: Then this reminds me of a free-moving Tiger! Tiger!.

[12:23 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Apparently the gorillas conquered the whole kingdom.

[12:23 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Arcade Archives Donkey Kong is available right now on the eShop.

[12:24 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Arcade Archives Sky Skipper available next month.

[12:24 PM] RawkHawk2010: Don't want.

[12:24 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: wtf

[12:24 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Starlink Battle for Atlas next.

[12:25 PM] RawkHawk2010: Yeah this Treehouse Live isn't a rehash.

[12:25 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: THERE'S HOPE.

[12:25 PM] RawkHawk2010: They're gonna cut off at Chunky again aren't they?

[12:26 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Yes.

[12:26 PM] RawkHawk2010: btw a years ago I desperately tried contacting the rapper behind all this.

[12:26 PM] RawkHawk2010: Couldn't track him down.

[12:27 PM] RawkHawk2010: "James W. Norwood Jr."

[12:27 PM] RawkHawk2010:

[12:31 PM] RawkHawk2010: I think at one point I actually thought Chunky might've been planned DLC as for why the Chunky verse was cut out in Smash (Wii) U.

[12:31 PM] RawkHawk2010: 'Cuz he'd have an entire rap piece dedicated to him.

[12:31 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: We're back.

[12:32 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Ubisofters.

[12:32 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Open world action-adventure game.

[12:32 PM] RawkHawk2010: Interested if it's about Fox.

[12:32 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: 400 light years away from Earth, where Fox apparently is.

[12:33 PM] RawkHawk2010: Never forget that Star Fox takes place in the past.

[12:33 PM] RawkHawk2010: Multiple reasons.

[12:33 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: He has a mount in-between the Joy-Con that he's plugging toys into.

[12:33 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: And they are reflected in-game.

[12:33 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Sounds expensive.

[12:34 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: I don't support Labo mechanics.

[12:34 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Though this is plastic.

[12:34 PM] RawkHawk2010: Did the Labo flop?

[12:34 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: We'll find out in Nintendo's next financial report, due in July.

[12:35 PM] RawkHawk2010: Characters.

[12:35 PM] RawkHawk2010: I'd like to hear Fox talk.

[12:35 PM] RawkHawk2010: ...Assuming we even see Fox.

[12:35 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: "Real, spherical, circumnavigable planets." (Not flat?)

[12:36 PM] RawkHawk2010: This is actually just like Star Fox, but the character face is in the middle of the sceen.

[12:36 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: They even have NPCs telling you stuff.

Thanks for the heads-up, Kharl.

[12:36 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Via commlink.

[12:36 PM] RawkHawk2010: Sounds like there's a ROB64 too.

[12:36 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Can you do a barrel roll?

[12:37 PM] RawkHawk2010: Maybe that's Fox-specific.

[12:37 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: They have a shield you can use to parry.

[12:38 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Kharl is Peppy.

[12:42 PM] RawkHawk2010: If Ubisoft has free reign over Nintendo characters now, is there someone who could appear in The Division?

[12:42 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Only if they appear on Nintendo Switch.

[12:44 PM] RawkHawk2010: Cuz Twin Snakes was rated M but still had those Mario and Yoshi figurines in it.

[12:46 PM] RawkHawk2010: arwing

[12:47 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: It's not clear to me why these physical components exist.

[12:47 PM] RawkHawk2010: Money

[12:48 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: "You can play as Fox throughout the ENTIRE game."

Fox McCloud splash screen.

[12:48 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Plus exclusive Star Fox missions for how he came to Atlas.

[12:48 PM] RawkHawk2010: Nice.

[12:48 PM] RawkHawk2010: Fox and his whole crew are in Atlas?

[12:48 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Ubisoft probably likes Star Fox more than Miyamoto does.

[12:49 PM] RawkHawk2010: Well Miyamoto cares enough to still want the IP alive after it should probably embarrass him.

[12:52 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: No hard-gating in this game with the components.

[12:52 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: "You can have a flamethrower pointing BACKWARDS!"

[12:53 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: (And it corresponds to the game backwards)

[12:53 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: BARREL ROLL

DO A BARREL ROLL.

[12:54 PM] RawkHawk2010: I used to have a Barrel Roll shirt.

[12:54 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: And it deflects projectiles like Star Fox's games.

[12:54 PM] Ryu: The toy on top of the controller... without those things, maybe it would've been fun to play

[12:54 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: And voiced by Star Fox Zero cast.

[12:56 PM] RawkHawk2010: "When Fucks arrived......When FOX arrived..."

[12:56 PM] RawkHawk2010: Dude can't pronounce Fox.

[12:57 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Smash next. And something else after.

[12:57 PM] RawkHawk2010: So far this stretch of Treehouse Live has been above average.

[1:01 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: JC is back.

[1:01 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: With Treehousers, not Smashers.

[1:02 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: 'cause they're showing items.

[1:03 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Bomber from Kirby is an item, not an Assist Trophy.

[1:04 PM] RawkHawk2010: Banana gun?

[1:05 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: They don't say where the Healing Field comes from.

[1:05 PM] RawkHawk2010: Or the Black Hole

[1:05 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: It's actually called "Banana gun"

[1:05 PM] RawkHawk2010: No clue where that could be from.

[1:05 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: And it shoots a projectile, and then turns into a peel.

[1:06 PM] RawkHawk2010: Maybe it's from Rabbids.

[1:06 PM] RawkHawk2010: Or just generic.

[1:06 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: 'twas my thought, with Rabbids.

[1:10 PM] RawkHawk2010: pika still screeching in the background

[1:11 PM] RawkHawk2010: Swimming is back.

Can you swim through THIS, Pac-Man?!

[1:13 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: This is kinda boring.

[1:14 PM] RawkHawk2010: I'm annoyed that there are stages in the E3 version Treehouse Live hasn't shown and won't.

[1:14 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Match should've ended a long time ago.

[1:16 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Pac-Man won.

[1:16 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Boring match, bad result.

[1:16 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: They're doing the same Poké Ball custom ruleset from yesterday.

[1:17 PM] RawkHawk2010: I don't remember that.

[1:17 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: When they had Pokémon Trainer vs. Pokémon Trainer in Saffron City.

[1:18 PM] Ryu: that ugly brown and pink bear is a pokemon? lol

[1:18 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Bewear.

[1:18 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: https://www.koopatv.org/2016/07/more-newly-discovered-alola-pokemon.html

[1:18 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: See here.

[1:20 PM] RawkHawk2010: alolan raichu is super sonic

[1:21 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Togedemaru.

[1:23 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Mewtwo's forward tilt now is scary.

[1:24 PM] RawkHawk2010: oooh

[1:24 PM] RawkHawk2010: assist trophoes

[1:24 PM] RawkHawk2010: look for krystal

[1:24 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: They're playing in the Cosmic Observatory.

[1:24 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Which hasn't showed up at all.

[1:26 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: "My favourite is Blinky... though I don't remember which colour is Blinky."

[1:26 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Samurai Goroh is battling Takamaru.

[1:27 PM] RawkHawk2010: I like that

[1:27 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Assist Trophies fighting each other.

[1:27 PM] RawkHawk2010: SNES Andross should have never been an Assist.

[1:27 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Krystal.

[1:28 PM] RawkHawk2010: ooooh

[1:28 PM] RawkHawk2010: She froze someone.

[1:28 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: "Star Fox Adventures was a really dope game, man, I mean... it was a really great game." - JC

[1:28 PM] RawkHawk2010: Is freeze even an actual staff power?

[1:28 PM] RawkHawk2010: yes

[1:28 PM] RawkHawk2010: It is

[1:28 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Nate Bihldorff voices Dr. Wright.

[1:29 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: And Shy Guy.

[1:29 PM] RawkHawk2010: What'd Shy Guy do?

[1:29 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Not be in this game.

[1:29 PM] RawkHawk2010: oh

[1:29 PM] RawkHawk2010: We haven't seen Devilman.

[1:29 PM] RawkHawk2010: Squid sisters may just replace him.

[1:30 PM] RawkHawk2010: Fire projectiles.

Ice projection.

Temporary flight boosts.

Able to create a SharpClaw Disguise for the user.

The ability to create Ground Quakes.

Creating small energy ForceFields.

Opening Portal doors.

[1:30 PM] RawkHawk2010: ^ Staff powers

[1:30 PM] RawkHawk2010: We only see Krystal use the staff like...once.

[1:31 PM] RawkHawk2010: At least powers-wise.(edited)

[1:31 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Xenoblade 2 next.

[1:31 PM] RawkHawk2010: Holy fucking shit.

[1:31 PM] RawkHawk2010: TORNA

[1:31 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: We'll be right back~

[1:31 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: I like how they're using Tennis Aces for intermissions now.

[1:32 PM] RawkHawk2010: Torna should be its own log.

[1:32 PM] Ludwig Von Koopa: Uh...
