Not to me of course. I don't even know you.
Hell- you can say the same about me.
But anyway. You are valid and you matter.

I had fond memories of Kirby's Canvas Curse. Replayed it and
the game still holds up. Even if it does harbor my most hated trope in video games. Go further in to hit a block to open previous level blocks to get a special coin for completion.
It's more annoying than "encouraging" replay value.

Hard run of RE 3:Nemesis. Never did a run where I always killed Nemesis for parts and I have to say, it's annoying for certain rooms. And the only one worth it is the eagle! So add an extra 2-3 hours lol.
Still my favorite RE game though.

Only played RE1 when I was 8 and then again on the Gamecube version. Got the bad ending because I forgot about saving Barry. Anyway- the DS (rebirth mode)gimmick is fun, but also tedious. I need to get back on working on my journal-blog. I know generally people won't care, but future me will.

The only thing I ever loved about my birthday, outside of the occasional gift and knowing who my real people are, is that it takes after Valentines day!
And I fucking love candy- especially the chalky, heart candies!
And they're all on sale! ALL ON SALE! FOR ME! AHAHAH!
Looking forward to that!

I'm starting to realize to the point of confirmation that people do not read beyond headlines anymore. Even with help threads, people just read the title and offer solutions that have already gone through the troubleshoot process.
That or maybe Reddit is just Yahoo answers all over again.

Finally beat Advance Wars DS. Turns out I was about 50% in when I dropped it (cannot remember my DS years well- I can only assume WoW or the PSP got in the way). I was nearly done with Days of Ruin too. But I'll take a break from that. Another game I didn't finish, The World Ends With You, is next.

I've always loved the art for the LINE emotes of DQ and FF, but the Chocobo set was one I just adored! I wanted to print these myself, but China said, "hey, we got you for $2.fiddy".
Sure beats buying stuff like this from the Square Enix store where they'd probably cost $30+.
Quality ain't that bad.

After getting into Picross, I'm glad there's a 3DS version of #FinalFantasy #Pictlogica- translated to English no less (thanks, translators)!
But it's odd seeing:
A FF I Goblin
in a FF VI Background
with FF V Characters
with Pixel Remaster sprites
in a FF IV 5-party row-formation
with mobile text.

I was looking up the Cacpom and SNK Picross and came across something called Squeakross.
OH

It's on PC as well! I can only imagine if there's a modding scene or not.

Came across this cancelled Pokémon game, Pokémon Picross. Decided to nab it knowing I'm just nabbing it for nabbing's sake. I've never played Picross my entire life so I decided to give it a go.
Picross is just Sudoku with art.
I fucking love Sudoku and (pixel-)art!
Capcom and SNK are next!

I've known about Outrun 2 '06 because of the PSP, but I never really -played- it until now. And it's so much fun!
I especially like having to impress my white Californian GF by ramming into cars and avoiding meteors just to get her Starbucks because she won't dirty her Uggs.

No disrespect to @oromoney.bsky.social ...because it is the truth!
But this was all of season 2 of Solo Leveling when it came to him and spoilers. Dood really couldn't contain himself.
I get it though, but goddamn, it gave me FFXV flashbacks until I eventually caved in for the carbuncle demo lol.

I made a joke bid offer of a Yellow DSi LL (Japanese) for $60. It was listed for $100. The seller accepted it.
I didn't expect that at all.
Well then. The fact that it's shipping within the US and I don't have to worry about tariffs along with it being my favorite color- I'll take this unexpected W.

People really be into Korean pop and to an extent, fashion now.

I feel confident that I can walk up to any woman and ask,
"Show me a photo of a meal or drink you had on July 17th 2017", and they'd likely had a photo of a food or drink had on that day.
Meanwhile, asking a guy I have to consider their sub-species/clique. "Which dick pick do you usually send?"

I think I can "mod" the DSi's shoulder button to use the SteamDeck's microswitch shoulder buttons. The SteamDeck's buttons work mechanically different and promote longer health.
They seem to be about the same size as well and use 3 pins. It's just a matter if the the DSi's assembly recognizes it.

Got a used DSi for $20. Worn, but still 100% functional outside the L/R issue that Nintendo cheped out on. 4th pic has a dent/blemish.
I hate this color with a passion though, but looking forward to re-shelling this with a Yellow color. I wanted a Yellow DSi LL, but tariffs murdered that hope.
