I don't like the new site layout, especially because it makes the link to the Forum a lot smaller, which will make it less likely for newcomers to come here

Because I was lazy lol. I figured that those areas would be "obvious" and that I didn't need to add them. However, I now realize just how few areas I didn't add, and it just made sense to add them. Interestingly, When I put the Seal Chamber there, I kinda notice that It's not really near the top...

Have you ever wondered what Cave Story's floating island looks like all mapped out? Well, I figure I'd take a stab at it. To establish where things are in the map, I used an image of the island from Cave Story+. Then I placed my starting point: The outer wall. The outer wall is very useful...

Well, actually none of the versions using Aeon Genesis assets are still being sold. The only one that is still legally obtainable is Cave Story 3D, and that's only from used copies. However, Cave Story 3DS eShop was sold for over 10 years, so I guess this would be the """copyright...

Fair point. I guess the only evidence they were actually copyrighted in the first place is that Nicalis felt the need to make new versions of those graphics in the first place. If they could use the Aeon Genesis text graphics, why wouldn't they?

Before I get started, none of this actually matters. All the versions of the game that (Might) infringe copyright are not being sold anymore. Do not harass Tyrone or anyone at Nicalis over this. Also, I apologize if this is common knowledge. The original version of Cave Story has several...

Yeah, TBH I never really thought that Jack dying was a reasonable interpretation, until I saw this (Otherwise good) video that randomly claims Jack to be dead like it is an undisputed fact at around the 8:00 mark. This got me thinking about whether we actually know if he's alive or not. I mean...

I just tested this out and to be honest the spur kinda sucks against final Ballos. You have to shoot his rotating eyes to damage him, and the eyes rotate away by the time you charge up another shot. Plus, charging a shot means you are not firing with Curly's nemesis, which with any other weapon...

I feel it's too "coincidental" for it to NOT be the intended strategy. Ballos's final phase is perfect for King's Blade. Some people don't like the lvl 3 Blade and think the lvl 2/1 Blade is better. It's pretty situational, and while there are bosses where the level 3 Blade is effective, I think...

This is a probably wrong theory but I might as well share it. Alright, what is the best weapon for defeating the final stage of Ballos? That's right, the Super Missile Launcher! However, what's the 2nd best weapon for the final stage of Ballos? I would argue it's the level 3 Blade. I'd argue...

Hmm, not sure if it's Kanpachi. While there are indeed 2 Kanpachi's, if Kanpachi ate a red flower, he would surely be carrying a comically oversized fishing rod.

Yeah I don't think there's 2 Mahins

Mahin can still be seen in jail if you backtrack from the last cave, so sorry, theory debunked.

Yeah the version of Gero Blaster we have is very old, much older than the one in the trailer. We'll have to see if we ever get a later build of the game

Since we see a cleaned up Mimiga Village graveyard in the credits, I think it's safe to assume a number of Mimiga return to Mimiga Village. It's safe to assume Kanpachi, Mahin, and Sandaime do return to the village. I like to assume that a number of the generic Mimiga in the plantation return...
