Bubsy... this sounds vaguely familiar. Was he that character that was intended to be a new mascot character like Mario and Sonic were but failed to amount to anything?

yeah, his creation was intended to cash in on the success of various furry video game mascots like sonic and sparkster, but due to bad reviews from pretty much everywhere it never happened. there was even a planned bubsy cartoon but it didn't even make it past the pilot episode. a role that i'm sure rob paulsen wouldn't want to bring up.

You could ask him about it at Retro Con. He's going to be there.

They recently announced that people who bought NBA Playgrounds for the Switch will get Shaq Fu: A Legend Reborn for free to make up for the lack of online. That will happen when Shaq Fu launches later this year. Sounds more like a punishment than a reward.

well here's hoping that, like with bubsy, the developers will learn from the previous game's mistakes and take the time and care into creating a decent game.
