I rarely talk about Not Video Games
I already love the Switch 2 so thoroughly more than the Switch it's insane. The original was Disappointment City for me, but all of the major titles I've played on the 2 so far have been so creative, so bold, so exciting, and so goddamn amazingly fun. Expensive or not, this is the Nintendo I love.

maybe their goal is to be so shitty that we look back on Concord fondly. it's just a long con

fuck you sony, pay people
PlayStation released an advent calendar where you can earn tickets via daily quests like watching an AD, you can use the tickets to enter a lottery to win games, controllers, etc. They also have free stuff like avatars which seem to be Ai generated.

I just tried the Switch port of Crash 4 for the first time, and MAN. I had heard this was one of those miracle ports that runs amazingly well, and like, no no no no no. Holy shit, it is so bad. I'm on Switch 2 and it's genuinely kind of painful. I can't even successfully slide-spin. Ouch.

I will never get over Mario Tennis Aces making you choose a court by DE-selecting all the courts you DON'T want to play. I will die completely baffled that anyone even came up with that, let alone that it made it to shelves and through 47 updates that way.

I'm still in shock at how little pushback there was at Sony literally remoting into your console and removing Concord without your permission. I mean, it's Concord, so lol, but man. Pretty dystopian. Everyone was too busy being mad at Nintendo for making a product and putting a price on it, I guess.

Bought Ninja Gaiden online, store decided to ship it using OnTrac, shitass OnTrac driver literally threw the package from their car window towards my place, destroying the game case inside. Very cool!

I've said this regarding game design many times, but now that AI is becoming so omnipresent and so many people are using it day-to-day, it feels more broadly applicable than ever before.

Maybe you shouldn't always have exactly what you want exactly when you want it as easily as possible.

The funny part is that clankers could unironically do his job better than it could ever do any of the creatives’. I’ll give the moron this, though: this talk makes me more inspired to work on my own game ideas, to make sure this art form stays an art form and moves away from people like him.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone. As always I’m so thankful for all of you that stick around for more even when I vanish. I *will* conquer this mental block and bring you more video fun.

Also, I’m thankful to be in a year with a new banger Pokémon game AND Kirby Air Riders, of course. Dreams come true.

Learning more about Fum really steels my resolve to ensure that I never, ever, ever put a random sponsorship in one of my YouTube videos.

Just spent like an hour trying to do a trick in Crash 2, but just could not get it to work for some reason. Come to find out I had overclocking enabled for some CTR mods I was messing with months ago, I try turning it off and land the trick instantly on the first try. Pain.

I'm gonna be pointing back to Overwatch for the rest of my life in reference to a Balanced Game not being the same as a Good Game. That game was so much goddamn fun when it was a chaotic, unbalanced nightmare. It's much better competitively now, but likewise much more boring.

Look man I know everyone needs to get their bag or whatever but I absolutely judge people for using monetization-safe replacement words. I cannot imagine just rolling over for the absurd idea that words like "kill" are off-limits. Any machine that tries to tell me I can't say a word can kill itself.

Insomnia so bad I’m actually awake for Pokémon news. How about that? Give one of my favorites a Mega, please and thank you.

It's frustrating that people always cite that Bulbapedia quote about Lysandre "killing everyone in the building" to justify calling him a bad character. It's a wiki, not an official source, and I consider it a misreading of the text. The UW does the same thing in both games, lol.

I can’t relate to the opening part about games, but everything else in this video from like 11:23 onward feels like a pointed dissection of my brain. The sad part is that I still don’t know what to actually do about it. youtu.be/a0k4v8lDS8U?...

If I seriously wind up getting a new Mario Kart, CrossWorlds, Kirby Air Riders, AND A NEW CRASH TEAM RACING all in the span of one year I will be fully convinced that my life is a Truman Show situation, and all you mf are gonna WATCH ME spend 1000 hours on that CTR game.
