1) Cooking Mama from well… Cooking Mama…
There has to be some kind of reason this chibi anime based game is a best seller. Well, besides the fluid gameplay… Cooking mama is just a plain addictive game, not so much for the characters, but for the feel of the game itself. However, no matter how badly you perform, Mama is usually there with a supportive smile and an assurance that she will “fix it”. Again, this leans towards maternal stereotypes, but Cooking Mama is probably THE most memorable gaming mom in existence. The simple design of the game couples a mother’s love for cooking with the notion of getting children involved and helping around the kitchen. This, to me, shows what moms typically try to do in reality. They will try to let children find their own feet, but will be there to help out if they falter. Couple this with that WINNING smile, and you have not only a great selling game, but a great selling character. Only Cooking Mama can make kniv...
Cooking Mama: Cookstar is a charming passion project from a dev team that clearly cares about the franchise.
Last week, a new Cooking Mama game was released for Nintendo Switch. The only problem is that it got un-released shortly afterwards.
Yeah some big name in the homebrew scene looked at it and it was having high resource usage and some network traffic indicating it most likely does have a miner in it.
As sh***y as that is, I also find that amazing.
"so guys, we're gonna port Cooking Mama to the Switch, but at the same time, we're gonna build in a crypto miner for 'reasons'.
Some dude in the back" uh, what?"
" your services are no longer required. you're excused "
I saw something about that and assumed it was an April Fool's joke, but... no.
From what I've read we don't yet have absolute proof this is what's happened, but the accusations are there and we're yet to see what the investigation will bring up. What a weird world we live in if it turns out to be true.
"There's a new Cooking Mama game coming and as well as a vegetarian mode, it's also bringing with it... blockchain technology?
We've tried to break down what that actually means and whether it's just meaningless jargon"
So sexist it isn't even funny. Well, maybe a little funny.
OLGA is not on the list = fail.
