Nintendo Sent A Game Out To Die Today
by Jason Schreier
DsiderI'm still sad that no one's taken to calling it Devil's Turd yet
Today, Nintendo released the video game Devil’s Third for Wii U, although you’d be forgiven if you didn’t know that. Nintendo’s been doing their best to keep it secret. (We apologize for ruining their surprise.)

Christmas chicken.
by Nathan Grayson on Steamed, shared by Nathan Grayson to Kotaku
Christmas chicken. It’s tough to love some of the changes Valve recently made to Counter-Strike , but this year’s festive chicken makeover is great. In-game chickens now wear wool sweaters over their frigid little drumstick bodies. (Clutch chicken shot courtesy of 3kliksphilip.)

Make Everything Smell Like Cat Head with This Japanese Spray
by Brian Ashcraft
Dsideruh
If you own a cat, you probably know this: the back of their heads smells so damn good. One Japanese company researched that scent, recreated it, and is now bottling and selling it.

It Must Suck To Work For Konami U.S. Right Now
by Jason Schreier
Imagine, for a second, that you work for the U.S. or European branch of Konami. It’s a cool job—you get to handle marketing, social media, or maybe business relations for a big company that publishes some cool games. Until suddenly you find yourself entangled in one of the worst PR disasters in video game history. And it’s totally out of your control.

A Damn Good Concept For Animal Crossing Wii U
by Luke Plunkett
For whatever reason, there hasn’t been a proper Animal Crossing game on the Wii U yet. If there was, though, it could look a lot worse than this effort by TheBitBlock.

Every month, Japan seems to get a new odd-flavored snack or candy. You might think that’s peculiar, but just know that many Japanese people do, too.

World of Warcraft's Old And New Dalaran, Compared
by Gergo Vas
DsiderI know it sounds stupid looking at it, but this place was basically my second home for two particularly difficult years. The swelling of the city's theme (not what's in the video, that's just an inn theme) whenever I logged in was a huge comfort every day. It might be my favorite memory from Wrath.
The fan favorite neutral flying city Dalaran, first introduced in Wrath, is returning in Legion as the expansion’s number one hangout place. And four expansion later, it’s a completely renewed hub. The folks over at Trade chat made a neat side-by-side comparison video using footage from the Legion’s alpha build.

Square Enix is doing more than just remaking Final Fantasy VII. It sounds like FFVII will be episodic. You might have questions about this. Square Enix might even have answers.

Though Daigo Was Defeated, He Pulled off the Coolest Capcom Cup Moment
by Brian Ashcraft
DsiderThat man is still a beast and a legend in every respect.
Daigo Umehara did not win the 2015 Capcom Cup. That’s okay. He did won the hearts of fighting game fans once again with another spectacular comeback.

How Final Fantasy VII's Cloud Has Changed
by Brian Ashcraft
Yes, there’s the obvious difference: From 1997 polygons to slick, modern day graphics. But more than that, the character’s design has subtly changed over the years. Let’s examine those changes.

Carrie Fisher Has The Best Response To The Slave Leia Merchandise Controversy
by James Whitbrook on io9, shared by Stephen Totilo to Kotaku
Recently, the Star Wars fanbase took time off from freaking out about The Force Awakens to freak out over a rumored ban on merchandise depicting Princess Leia’s “Slave” outfit from Return of the Jedi. Many words about the matter have been said since—a lot of them pretty good!—but leave it to Leia herself to put it best.

Steam Finally Adds Option To Permanently Delete Games From Your Library
by Nathan Grayson on Steamed, shared by Nathan Grayson to Kotaku
DsiderThis is how far shame has taken us
For the longest time, you could uninstall a Steam game from your machine, but—no matter how regrettable the purchase—it’d remain in your library, cluttering up your precious game hoard. With Steam libraries growing into the hundreds and thousands, this became a problem.

Indivisible, the new RPG from the creators of Skullgirls, has been funded on Indiegogo to the tune of $1.5 million. It wasn’t looking good for a stretch—they had to extend their funding period—but 65 hours remain in the campaign.

The Mario Bros. Music Has Official Lyrics
by Luke Plunkett
DsiderUnfortunately, the only lyrics my brain will ever hear are concluded with
"COME ON NOW"
"JUUUUUUUUUUST LIIIIIIIIIKE THAAAAAAAAAAAAT"
You’ve been hearing the ditty for decades, both in games and on the internet, but did you know that the original Mario Bros. theme—from the games, not the TV show’s intro—has official lyrics to go with it?

Chef Turns Splatoon's Biggest Stars Into Tasty Squid Recipes
by Mike Fahey
The most important factor in creating Splatoon-inspired dishes, as Food Network’s Justin Warner does in his latest Foodie Call video, is to make sure the main ingredient is a squid now. Once that’s confirmed, cook away.
