What’s up, gamers!? Hope you’re having a Wonderful Wednesday! It’s Mark Emery, AKA TacoRemix, and this is what you missed yesterday in gaming news:
Let’s talk about Pokemon Let’s Go! Pikachu and Eevee here for a second. I’ve been away for a little, working on the wizard of legend video, which did pretty well compared to these videos. I’ll try to sprinkle those in more, but ultimately I like doing gaming news, it’s a steady stream of content, and I don’t have to buy the latest and greatest game to keep up with trends. It gets expensive.
Enough about the digression, here’s all the new things you need to know about the upcoming pokemon game on Nintendo Switch!
The pokeball plus will take 3 hours to charge on a USB C cable, which by the way is my favorite cable to use! Can everything be on USB-C from now on? I can’t tell you how many times i’ve broken my USB micro.. Mini.. I get those two mixed up, but both of them need to be replaced with the USB C immediately, i’m so glad the pokeball plus will be having that port. It takes 3 hours to charge, No word on how long it will last, depends on the use. If you’re trekking this bad boy along with you all day, petting your pokeball, as it.. You know.. Yells at you.
The Pokeball will light up and move when you catch a pokemon, it’s supposed to simulate the way catching a pokemon would feel. That’ll be fun to see!
As far as the pokemon go, (HA! See what I did there? Pokemon go..) There will only be the original 151, Let me tell you, I am working my ass off to catch Mew right now in Pokemon Go, that’s my favorite Pokemon, and the only one I care about. I want to be running around with mew trailing behind me, like a super duo. Can I put sunglasses on my Mew? You think I give a shit about Eevee? Can eevee transform? NO! IT CAN’T! Will eevee learn wish so it can recover? PROBABLY NOT! Can Mew learn softboiled and roost? Yeah! Yeah it can! But! Turbo Taormino is getting Let’s Go Pikachu, so if Eevee and Pikachu have to fight, i’ll be hitting him with a sand attack trying to brace for all of the thunder waves that’s coming my way.
What other notes do I have here? So this game is based on Pokemon Yellow, you guys knew that already, if not, hey! You learned something new! Online play looks like it won’t be supported in terms of co op. You can still battle your friends online. I’m coming for ya, Justin!
As for Pokemon Go intigration, it looks like you can transfer pokemon from Pokemon Go to Let’s Go Pikachu and Eevee, but not transfer back. Which is fine, because i’m only picking up Pokemon Go again to get Mew to transfer over. Am I spoofing? Yeah, I am. I want Mew, and I work 16 hours a day and don’t have time to stroll around the block. I’m a fucking adult! Finally, back to the original 151 you’re also going to see some alolan pokemon in there, Pokemon Go is currently having the palm tree exeggutor going around, these guys are great, you catch a ton of them that are above 2000 CP and you can scatter them across gyms. It’s a good alternative to all the damn chanceys and blisseys that i’m seeing. They just… they just take so long to take down.
For our next story, it looks like Lego is making an artificial reality game due out later this year! It combines real world lego buildings with digital ones. I’m reading this article from Engadget and they are comparing it to a Lego Sims. Plus Lego has things like Harry Potter, Batman, Sonic, Simpsons, all that, so you might be seeing digital springfields, arkham city, etcetera etcetera! Did you guys have legos as a kid? I couldn’t have legos, I had a bunch of brothers and sisters, well I could have legos, but they’d play with them, and lose them. I mean, it took the fun out of it you know? They would get into the legos, and you’d have pieces lost, and you know you have that one lego guy you really really like, and they lose that guy, and you FLIP OUT! Cuz you’re 10 years old and … hormones!
Anyway! The Sims, I mean the lego AR game is going to enable multiplayer games, so 3 other friends with their own phone or tablet can join in on session. You’ll also be able to do things like unlock vehicles as time goes on.
Speaking of Pokemon! It’s time for Taco’s Cheat Mix! This one is from Gamester 5001, for the game Pokemon Quest out for the switch right now. He shows you by taping on the run away button as much as you can, you can keep one pokemon alive while your other two pokemon wail on the level’s boss. Just like in the video’s title: Patience = Win. Follow the link below for more details, and give him a what’s up from me.
Next up here are some more details for Super Sonico Kart, Sonic Racing? Team Sonic Racing. You can pre-order the game for $40, hey not bad! You’ll have unique vehicle customization options, seems to be pretty standard in Kart racers, or at least should be standard. You can play solo or team up, and also race against each other.
Let’s talk about something that I haven’t seen in a Kart racer yet: Team Ultimate Power, which boosts other members of your team. This is next level, and I really want to see that in an esports environment, maybe not a Sonic racing game. Sonic has so much to do to repair their name. Sonic Mania was a good start. But their 3D games are still so buggy. They just need one REALLY good 3D sonic game. I Don’t care if everyone else is doing a large free roam RPG, it’s exactly what sonic needs, he doesn’t have to go fast, I know that’s the staple of that, but he can start slow, and with each chaos emerald he can go faster. People re-brand things all the time, take note from Mario Odyssey and Breath of the Wild, get a progression system similar to Skyrim or something, these formulas WORK. I know there’s like 100 of you maybe watching this. But what do you think? I’ll be talking with the few of you that comment down below, like I typically do. By the way, Mythical Knights asked where my gaming news videos were, right here buddy!
Finally our LAST story of the day. Duuudes how exciting!! So to anyone attending TwitchCon 2018, which will be around the same time as E3, you’ll be able to see some of the top speed runners who typically do the Awesome Games Done Quick events do a quickie Marathon.
This article is from Shacknews.com, I don’t know why they said quickie Marathon, they will be speed running all 3 days when Twitch Con is open. All proceeds, as per every AGDQ event, goes to charity, and all the charities in the charity plaza at Twitch Con, are getting the proceeds. All specific games are going to be announced at a later date, so stay tuned for that. Twitch Con is going to be happening at San Jose, CA from October 26 through 28. I live in San Jose, I need to be going to this!
And that’s it for today’s show! Question of the day: If you could speed run ONE game, what would it be? Be sure to leave a like on the video if you enjoyed the stories, it helps other people see this on their recommended feed when you do that so let’s do this! It’s a good thing when you get comments from random people that say “you deserve more subs” or “this needs more views” you guys can help out by click or tapping on that like button. Share this out too that’s like bonus you don’t need to, hitting like is like no effort. That’s it for today guys, I’m TacoRemix, make it a great day today, peace out!
A Fan Project 4 years in the making to remake diablo II using the Starcraft II engine, A Rumor about the StarFox Grand Prix, A Breath of the Wild glitch to reset rune timers, The Super Mario Odyssey Jump Rope Glitch, and Data mined new mario outfits. What’s up, Gamers!? Hope you’re having a Terrific Tuesday! It’s Mark Emery AKA TacoRemix, and here’s What You Missed Yesterday In Gaming:
Fan Project To Remake Diablo II Using StarCraft II Is Now Playable
If you guys remember what Diablo II looked like, which was a hot mess, spoiler alert, the Starcraft II Mod makes everything look *MUAH* oh so pretty. Although, yeah you’re not going to be getting 4K graphics here, if you do a side by side comparison, the difference is pretty clear!
“The mod offers all seven of Diablo II’s character classes for you to start as and two new difficulty modes. “Heroic,” the first, adds stronger enemies and equipment, but also something called “world curses”—global events in the game that randomly deactivate certain abilities like health regeneration. The third one, “Mythic,” turns all bosses into super-powered versions and also adds “world events,” a mechanic Godbout plans to share more information about in the future.”
The mod was made by Etienne Godbout, searching for his name though I couldn’t find anything in the way of Twitter, Instagram or Facebook, but his Indiegogo page for The Curse Of Tristram is in the link below, although the funding page has closed. He raised just shy of $2000 of his, get this $6,666 goal. I love this dude already. It’s also worth noting, Starcraft II is now free to play. So is the mod, so do Godbout a favor and play the mod that took him 4 years. Keep in mind there’s still bugs he’s trying to fix, and it’s one guy who can fix it in his spare time. I wish I had more of a following brother, this is a good one.
Rumor: StarFox Grand Prix
Taco’s Cheat Mix
Here’s how it works: by viewing a cutscene or picking up an item you’ve never seen before, it will effectively reset your rune counter. So somebody could, let’s say, drop a raddish on a door, burn it, put the door in stasis, launch the door, pick up the burned raddish, which is effectively a new item, which resets the counter, put the door in stasis again, go into the menu, watch a cutscene, put the door in stasis AGAIN, and effectively fly across the map.
I absolutely love the speedrunning community, they come up with the greatest stuff. By the way, this article was found on Kotaku, and is the second article by Heather Alexandra that i’ve seen, I feel like the articles get the attention and not the people writing them, so I thought I would give her a shoutout. Link to her twitter in the description, show some love, internet!
Super Mario Odyssey: Infinite Jump Ropes
So this video footage is from DGR, which I’ve followed this guy for awhile, genuinely a great dude! DGR stands for Dan Good Repairs, which, ya know, fun fact, Now he does.. Speedruns I guess.. ANYWAY! On with the glitch! I know! I’m using his video, so you need to know about the guy, behind the video!
The glitch was found by Twitter User Syrkl @kehzou, link in the description, if you want to know ANY super mario odyssey glitches, go to that guys profile, you’ll find about 5 just by staring into is beautiful beautiful… Is that a tunic?
Super Mario Odyssey: Data Mined Costumes
Something tells me, and this is just speculation on my part, the zombie outfit will release sometime in halloween, and the santa outfit will release sometime near christmas. The 8-bit Mario might appear at 2 times, Mario’s birthday, which, for those of you that don’t know, his birthday is on July 9, 1981. So we might be seeing this update drop on July 9th, we also might be seeing, depending on how things go, the costume coming out on new years. But I could see the 8 bit costume coming out in July, after that is August, so either the racing costume or conductor outfit, after that is September, which means one of the others is being released. After that is October, great for the zombie outfit, then November whatever nothing happens, then December, the Santa outfit. Again, that’s just speculation.

Good morning, Gamers! Hope you’re having a Marvelous Monday! It’s Mark Emery AKA TacoRemix, and here’s what you missed yesterday on the internet:
The NES Classic will get a re-issue on June 29
This is going to be a great thing for you guys that want that nostalgia again, and couldn’t get the console when it sold out back in 2016. For those of you that just don’t care, there’s always the switch’s online service that you’ll be able to play the games online with your friends. (or just use an emulator).
Maplestory gets a mobile game and a 3D Sequel
MapleStory 2 looks like it focuses heavily on the voxel based art style, as well as housing around the world. Character customization also looks great, Here’s hoping they have a kick-ass combat system!
MapleStory also has a mobile version of their original game, as of right now there’s no official release date. The mobile game plays just like the original maplestory, except there’s now an auto option to complete quests and grind without all the tedious tapping. There’s still an option to do that if you so choose, with this, here’s hoping there isn’t too many micro transactions, and that they treat it like they did the original maplestory, with the only transactions being cosmetic or stat changes.

Monster Hunter Film goes into production
Constantin Film’s “Monster Hunter,” the video game adaptation budgeted at around $60 million, will go into production starting in September, re-teaming Constantin with its “Resident Evil” star Milla Jovovich, director Paul W. S. Anderson and producer Jeremy Bolt.
Constantin will partner on “Monster Hunter” with “a big company” in Japan and another in China, both of whom will take equity in the project. These deals are “in the last stages of negotiation,” Moszkowicz added.
I’d imaging if you guys liked the resident evil film series then you’ll like this monster hunter movie coming out.
