Sleepless nights, immeasurably stress, and a few too many energy drinks. But goddamn, y’all.
Sure, we produce and organize it. But The IGAs is so much bigger than a single organization. I cannot wait to show you the amount of collaboration that’s being poured into round two.

October 26 2000, Majora's Mask debuted on the N64 in the Americas!
Development started out of a lack of enthusiasm to work on the expansion for Ocarina of Time, N64DD's "Ura Zelda".
Eiji Aonuma protested, so Miyamoto challenged him to make a sequel for the game within 1 year!
And he did!

For @crossplayblog.bsky.social, I wrote about how I've navigated fear and bravery with my oldest kid—when to push, when to back off, when to offer bribes—because she's asking me a fun question: "When am I old enough for a haunted house?" Good question. www.crossplay.news/p/when-is-a-...
When Is a Kid Old Enough for a Haunted House?
One of the trickier parts of parenting is managing fear. There is a time and place to believe they can do a little more.
