If you’re new here, welcome to one of the better parts of the internet! I’m Earl and I specialize in creating background chatter. Here’s a copy of Psychocandy, a Wawa hoagie, and an FM Towns Marty. If you also like any of these things, there’s a good chance that we’d get along.
It’s never too early to teach your children that he cannot be stopped.

It took me just under 39 years, but I’ve finally fallen down the Shiren the Wanderer rabbit hole. (Don’t worry, Fatal Labyrinth, I still love you as well.)

I have no idea why the European box art for Game & Watch Gallery 3 looks like it does. It’s as if the official art emerged from the uncanny valley.

This country is run by petulant children who have never spent a single second being introspective.
These are people with fragile identities who can't fathom the thought of teaching our actual history.
I'm sick of it.

I saw these once, and tried to get my mom to buy me one. As an adult, I get why she said no, but I’ve also never been able to stop trying to imagine what they were like.

Also, having just returned from
Magfest with my old 3DS in tow, I can safely say that StreetPass is my most missed of all the discontinued Nintendo software. I managed a few hundred over the past few days!

I hadn’t been to Magfest since 2020, and I’m glad I attended this year. Seeing friends you haven’t seen in person in forever and having them exclaim excitement while hugging before you can even react is a great feeling. I’ve had the fortune of meeting some really great people.

After revisiting Wings of Wor/Gynoug, it’s safe to say that between this and Cho Aniki, Masaya really had the “Vehicle designed for war but with a human face grafted on” art style down to a science.

Phil Hartman is amazing at playing a creep (compliment), but when he says you should marinade ahi tuna in Italian salad dressing, he’s being a bit too irredeemable.

Had a dream last night that an Xbox 360 was selling for thousands on eBay because suddenly everyone wanted to play KoF: Sky Stage.

Having odd tastes and buying things on a ten year delay is the cause of 90% of any value my collection has.

So I can’t blame you, because looking up the MM now I can tell that I had to improvise more than I remembered. It’s a very truncated version of the Samsho II logo with the control scheme box beneath it. Given the chance, I’d be far more psyched to come across a cab with Stakes Winner.

Well done getting Mr. Do! I’ll say the one on the left is a series that’s equally as prolific as Metal Slug. PicoCAD has a somewhat limited color palette, which adds to the challenge overall. I should really revisit it.

The first two are a bit harder to parse to say the least. Number one is a mini marquee that’s mostly just the game’s logos, and is for one of the system’s most popular titles. Number two is a somewhat obscure title, and was probably too detailed for the scale, so it’s not as universally recognized.
