I just want to play video games and be a bit sarcastic about it.
I emerge from the hot dark room, sweat dripping down my head and past my blood shot eyes, it looks like I’ve not slept for a week. No one has seen me for months as I burrowed myself away.

I open my mouth:
“I have beat Metaphor: ReFantazio!”

Was able to secure two Switch 2 pre-orders.

Form a line ladies.

Kojima tweeted this photo of the people who came to preview Death Stranding 2.

Why is Geoff Keighley on the end and not next to Kojima? Trouble in paradise?

I see all these people saying that it’s a bad idea to release the Oblivion Remake the same week as Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 as people won’t have the time to play both games and maybe they should have given it a couple of weeks.

Meanwhile I just got to the last dungeon in Metaphor: ReFantazio.

Ichiban Confections is down 8.7% in the Japanese stock market.

It’s going to be a brutal shareholder meeting.

I’ve heard the theory before that Sony and Microsoft like having Nintendo around as they create the next generation of gamer.

Now with a Switch 2 price rise they’ll create the next generation of Democrats.

Gamers have stormed the capital.
Nintendo is delaying the start of Switch 2 preorders:

"Pre-orders for Switch 2 in the U.S. will not start April 9, 2025 in order to assess the potential impact of tariffs and evolving market conditions.

Nintendo will update timing at a later date. The launch date of June 5, 2025 is unchanged."

The Nintendo Switch 2 looks like the perfect console for someone who skipped the PS4 and Xbox One.

Wife: Have you made plans for us for Valentine’s.

Me: Oh yes I have!

Hmmmm, do I get the console with exclusive games or the console that plays less games?

Guess it’s an Ouya exclusive then.

I started playing Metaphor the other day and I’m not far into it but the part I’m liking the least is real life stopping me from playing it.

These kids thinking the short lived TikTok ban was hard wouldn’t have lasted a second during the PSN outage of 2011.

“Can you believe that they thought making God of War a live service game was a good idea?”

Me: “Yes. I can show you many examples of higher ups making stupid decisions within the games industry.”

Can’t think of a director who influenced more games than David Lynch:

Alan Wake
Deadly Premonition
Persona
Silent Hill
Mizzurna Falls
Zelda: Link’s Awakening

His movies may not have made billions at the box office but the cultural footprint they left behind is much more important.

The stress of waiting for the announcement destroyed my marriage and personal relationships.

Now that the Switch 2 is announced my life finally feels complete and I can now move on.

Kind of mean for Elden Ring Nightreign to test the servers on Valentine’s Day because they know that most gamers have no plans that day.

Kinda messed up that a judge of all people is trying to please Slender Man.

The Groundhog has seen its shadow.

There will be no Switch 2 announcement today.

Crazy to think that Jimmy Carter was alive when Metroid Prime 4 was announced.
