Super Mario RPG Monster List guide
Posted on 1 year ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch | 0 comments
New to the recently-released Super Mario RPG remake is a Monster List that tracks every single enemy in the game. When you encounter an enemy, it’s automatically added to the database. However, its entry is not complete until you successfully use Mallow’s Thought Peek spell on it. Several enemies have missable Thought Peek entries – luckily, there’s an NPC in Booster Pass hidden in a cliff who will sell you new Monster List entries in exchange for three Frog Coins. Feel free to check out our Frog Coin farming guide before you continue here.

Wes Ball, the director of the upcoming movie based on The Legend of Zelda, has commented on what he’s going for with the film, saying that he’s aiming for “a live-action Miyazaki.” Hayao Miyazaki is the co-founder of Studio Ghibli and led the way on acclaimed animated films such as Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke, and My Neighbor Totoro.
Ball spoke to EW about the project while he oversees postproduction on Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes. He said his vision is “this awesome fantasy-adventure movie that isn’t like Lord of the Rings, it’s its own thing. I’ve always said, I would love to see a live-action Miyazaki. That wonder and whimsy that he brings to things, I would love to see something like that.”

Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom devs on Gleeok return and more
Posted on 1 year ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom director Hidemaro Fujibayashi and producer Eiji Aonuma have spoken about some of the enemies in the game, including the return of Gleeok. This comes in a recent interview with Nintendo Dream that we’ve translated.
Gleeok is an especially notable enemy addition as we haven’t seen it often in the series. For Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, having Gleeok in there came about when the team was thinking about including “a monster that could rival the Lynel from Breath of the Wild in strength for the new sky areas”.
