I think I've settled on this as my primary social media platform moving forward so I'll do a reintroduction.
I'm Blair Farrell, I've written about comic book video games since 2012 on comicbookvideogames.com. I've written 2 books on the subject matter and have interviewed people who made them.

I'm very honored to be the new owner of a Jack Rabbit mask created by @highway_just_cos (on IG). Fits perfectly next to the custom Spectrum mask I received from @hawkworley (on IG) last year.

Super Mario 64. I had enough money after Xmas and New Years to afford it at the $79.99 price tag. A week or later I see a commercial during Saturday morning cartoons about the new N64 players choice line at $49.99.

Rolled credits on DK Bananza last night. I still feel the game went on a bit too long but the ending was incredible. I didn’t think I would get to play it soon-ish post launch and I wish I didn’t have the surprise spoiled but that’s all you can do.

I just got the last Bananza form and 400 and some odd bananas when my Switch 2 pro controller died. I wish PS5 had that kinda lasting power.

And what did Blair do after watching Victor Lucas stream Crash Bandicoot on GBA?
He went and ordered it from @pnpgames.bsky.social. Does this sound like a man who has had all that he can watch?

I have no nostalgia for Atari. Never owned one, barely played one and throughout my life, it felt like the name was traded on from publisher to publisher.
All that is to say that I feel this new iteration of Atari for my tastes is my favourite publisher.

As if things weren't bad enough already, here's a video about a genuinely awful NES game: The Uncanny X-Men. I had the good instincts to avoid this one back in the day based on screenshots alone, but incredibly enough, it turned out to be EVEN WORSE than I expected:

I really liked DK Bananaza starting out, but I feel that the mechanics are starting to get stale. I just got the Zebra which I don’t care for.
