I like retro games. Working on my GB and SNES collection. I also like LEGO, so I'm always broke.
Mega SG sold for 85,000 yen! Emulation is back on the menu!

I think I'm might sell my SuperNT (I have a SFC/SNES or two) but definitely my Mega SG (and probably my Mega Drive games). Just looking at space and the future of what I collect. This ain't pokemon. We don't need it all (and can emulate something if we really want to play it).

Props to this card shop for only selling new Pokemon packs to kids junior high and under today. My kids are happy.

Anyone else playing ARC Raiders? I need friends in my timezone to play with.

Here's my pitch for a new indie game. It's a metroidvania / survival / town management sim, and with anime tiddies. I like supporting indy devs, but a lot of Next Fest stuff seems like the same old stuff. Anyone play any cool demos?

Went around all these shops looking for the pokemon serial codes with my kids yesterday. Today my dumbass remembers phones are a thing and can just call around. On our way now.

Back from a week in Kyushu... time for some Megabonk.
October 11, 2025 at 9:23 AM
Silent Hill got pushed aside when I tried out Megabonk for a just a bit... which ended up being about 35 hours of gaming. So addicting.
Off to Kyushu for a week for work, so hopefully that breaks the addiction.

Never played a Silent Hill game, but I think I might try this new one. Releases a day before my bday, and got a horror itch playing that Silent Cleaning game recently (Great advertising for KAO cleaning products)

I saw Get Up Kids live in concert and went to the screening of Gundam Wing Endless Waltz this week. Basically reliving high school. Better reinstall AIM and see if any of my friends are still online.

Just logged in to check. Passed N2! Barely, but still a pass. Will keep studying, but needed this for work.

Is this a Pokemon meets Yakuza game? Like a Dragonite?
July 22, 2025 at 1:22 PM
Will take a break from watching various Sting (the wrestler) highlight videos and check out this Pokemon presents. I need to be "cool" dad tomorrow and deliver all the "cool" news to my kids.

I ordered a custom shirt. I even did it in their colors.

Pass or fail though, I'm proud on the improvement I've made this past year. Being more involved at work, watching shows from start to finish with no English subs, reading manga and books at decent speeds. It's nice to see and feel progress outside of a test.

While I was in Akiba the other day selling shit. I bought two cheap Gundam models. I wanted to build something but Lego are getting so expensive. Grabbed a panel liner pen, and clear top coat, and some 100 yen fine sanding nail files. Let's hope this doesn't turn into another money sucking hobby.

Pretty sure I smashed the listening. Have to put in time for grammar and more kanji these next few months.
July 6, 2025 at 5:16 AM
The thing that pisses me off the most is I'm at my home station and they're directing traffic to the university across the street for the JLPT... Why'd I'd have to go 80 minutes away when there was a place I could've walked to?
July 6, 2025 at 5:12 AM
Did all the white people already pass N2, or collectively just not really trying that hard because we're happy with 日本語上手 status?
July 5, 2025 at 11:17 PM
I just realized... will I be able to take the test tomorrow? I've never practiced or studied in complete silence. Not sure I'll be able to concentrate unless I have my kids yelling in the background.
July 5, 2025 at 8:16 AM
Kanji okay, Reading okay, Listening okay. Grammar... One last review, but I think this is what will hold me back from N2.
July 5, 2025 at 8:12 AM
Doing another Akiba kaitori run tomorrow after work. If anyone is around and wants to grab food or hang, hit me up.

Going to see Get Up Kids this September in Ebisu. 25 year of Something to Write Home about.
June 22, 2025 at 12:08 PM
Damn. Turns out we had two copies of Pokemon Gold... not the first time I've found multiples of the same game. Really needed to sort all of this out long ago. This room is a warzone right now.

My son is a thoughtful kid. He asked if I was sure I wanted to sell the famicom, and offered his Splatoon 3 to sell (he doesn't play it anymore). We'll be parting with Pokemon Gold&Silver and keeping Crystal and Yellow.
