(CriticalIndieGamer) Surely every gamer has, at one time or another, been watching a TV show and wished they could play through as a video game? I know I have. It's fertile territory, but one that comes with its own risks. I'm sure you are all aware of the awful track record developers have for movie - game adaptations, but it doesn't stop me from wishing. Here are the top five TV shows I want to make the videogame leap.
The collaboration you’ve all been waiting for is here – Yorkshire Tea and your favorite console’s controller.
Hmph, you were lucky enough to be playing games with a yorkshire tea controller!

The new rules set by Japanese gaming giant, Nintendo, might threaten future content, directly impacting the profitability of many community-driven events.
"The profit of these tournaments is directly impacted by these new rules, as sponsorships are being forbidden, maximum prize money is limited to $5,000, and food/drinks can’t be sold at the tournaments."
Why even bother.
1 thing I've realized over the years is that Nintendo likes bragging about "fun", but it's "fun" how they see fit, and they often go against their consumers for the dumbest reasons. Just gonna do this stuff underground style, who are Nintendo to stop anyone from organizing community based tournaments anyway? How does this actually hurt em?
They've always wanted smash to be seen as a fun, casual game and nothing remotely competitive, which is in stark contrast with how Sakurai develops smash. He puts in so many little things to master for high level competitors. It's just sad, especially for the melee community. They kept the community going for 2 decades now even while all the time nintendo was trying to sabotage them.
