Naturally, you knew where this was going. I posted it in Chatty yesterday, but here's show creator Alex Hirsch and some of the nightmares he had to endure with Disney S&P.
One last treat. Ever curious about the fights I had with the censors on Gravity Falls? I probably shouldn't share this buttttt here are some REAL NOTES from DISNEY S&P and my REAL REPLIES. You are not prepared #10YearsOfGravityFalls pic.twitter.com/EioKU8gIJJ

Lord knows the last thing DISNEY wants to do is encourage the furries.

Even Sakurai knows that FF7 Rebirth is something to be really excited about.
Nothing but the Hotfix
For this week's Games Done Quick Hotfix spotlight, we return to the world of randomizers. You've seen combo randomizers for A Link to the Past and Super Metroid, but have you seen their original NES counterparts combined in such a way? Check it out and enjoy!
Remember to catch GDQ's Hotfix shows every week at the Games Done Quick Twitch account.

You can argue about whether this was a bold prediction or not, but the man was certainly right.
IT'S STILL REAL TO ME, DAMMIT!
Man, look at this blast from the past that's been uploaded to the WWE YouTube channel. Check out this monumental (and rare for free TV at the time) clash between Hulk Hogan and Goldberg from 1998.
