I wish I'd had more time to play The Mansion of Innsmouth at the Nintendo event, as it felt like the most unusual Virtual Boy game to test even though Teleroboxer and Wario Land are the "stars" of the lineup.
The Virtual Boy Switch and Switch 2 peripheral feels a lot like the original device, and I was really excited to play The Mansion of Innsmouth for the first time. www.siliconera.com/preview-swit...
Preview: Switch and Switch 2 Virtual Boy Feels True to Form
After going hands-on with the Switch and Switch 2 Virtual Boy, it feels quite faithful to the original device.

Seriously, pick a mythological tradition—any of them, any where in the world—and you'll find the worst of punishments are reserved for those that violate the laws of hospitality

Thinking about whoever said that by accepting a meal from people and then arresting them ICE agents broke a cultural taboo that was invented by, like, the first humans to set up a tent

I only had one lucky free 10-pull with Trainees, so I’m hoping this isn’t my only lucky free 10-pull for cards.

It's been fun seeing The Consultants lose their mind about how they don't get this ad, which is the coolest shit she's done yet.
(Also, yes, that's Matt Mercer, who I've come to learn since this ad dropped is more famous than Michael Jordan.)

Marimar Martinez is a hero.
She was shot 5 times by ICE.
The agent told her to “do something b*tch” before opening fire.
He later bragged “5 shots, 7 holes”.
DHS tried to smear her reputation but video footage vindicated her.
Next week she will testify in Washington about ICE’s brutality.

Hotel room update: Still in the room with a broken heated, and now the overhead light randomly dims. (I’ve called the front desk again.)

Cold hotel update. Since it has been 30 minutes with no maintenance visit or call, I checked if I could switch to a room that does have heat.
Nope!
Heat is out for the whole hotel.

Conundrum: My hotel room has no heat and a space heater on carpet. There's a bunk bed. Do I top bunk it because heat rises? Or bottom bunk it cause at least I can escape if there's a space heater incident.
(I already called the front desk like 30 minutes ago and am waiting for an engineer.)
