Wild seeing the Genki logo on a 2026 retail game. Feels like Japan never went through the late 2000s now.

The Switch 2/Switch Lite plan for Metroid Prime 4 has been working out great. Makes me greedy and wish all Switch 2 games had shitter Switch 1 versions on them.

Finally got out of that shift and onto the bus. Some cunt's watching full volume TikToks of babies crying.

Made Metroid progress in the staff room before my shift starts. Thank you, Lite.

Second guessed a control prompt in Metroid Prime 4, because the controller diagrams are always of a pair of Joycon 2s.
If I plug in a neGcon in Soul Blade, the control menu gives me a full 3D model that responds as I twist it, but Nintendo can't include an image of a Pro Controller?

The council have determined that it's bad for the environment to send me a bin calendar, so they sent me two identical, individually enveloped, letters to explain this to me.

Voice acting Samus must be such a sweet gig. Two minutes of damage grunts and you're good for five years.

The cat was acting concerningly last night. Meowed at the driveway, but didn't jump up to the window. Ran straight in when I opened the door, but was weary of me at first. Didn't want to eat, didn't want to clean his dirty paws, though they were clearly bothering him. I was really worried...

There was a chance of me starting Metroid Prime 4 in fits and starts on a Switch Lite, on busy buses and for about 15 minutes on my break, but it appears the posties did not believe in my vision

The Red Dead Redemption Switch 2 is fine enough, but I think my main takeaway is that I'll probably not bother playing Metroid Prime 4 in mouse mode.

I'm a big enough dork to have reviewed multiple different international releases of one game, so I'd prefer to be able to assign an image per log, but I'm still thankful for how it is now.

Skimming through every issue of Dengeki PlayStation, and seeing the Final Fantasy VII reveal in March 1996 is a proper holy shit moment. Totally makes sense how much it swayed things in Japan. Cunts were still playing Kileak The Blood and shit.

Capcom need to sneak out an Onimusha 3 remaster by the end of the month, because I'm struggling to think of anything else I played for the first time this year that I'd vote for Best Narrative on backloggd

Hadn't touched the actual cart in years, and loading it up, I was around 54 stars. Just sorted that out quickly.
