Things that [only] needle my brain:
The SNES Nintendo Classics app capitalizing the "Of" in the first "Breath Of Fire" but correctly lowercasing "of" in "Breath of Fire II".

Silent Hill f gets you excited about a sacred sword you can unlock and use in subsequent playthroughs, but then I found out the kitchen knife is absolutely OP and makes the sacred sword seem laughable in comparison. The kitchen knife made the 2nd playthrough final boss way more bearable!

Cray apparently is getting a bit too chonky in the vet's opinion, so we'll be monitoring his food portions and checking his weight month-to-month more closely.

Breath of Fire, duh. And have director Makoto Ikehara and creator Yoshinori Kawano back on board along with artist Tatsuya Yoshikawa and designer Yugo Togawa. And call it Breath of Fire VI while retconning Ono/Sugiura's mobile failure Breath of Fire 6.
You get to bring back ONE VIDEO GAME IP for a new iteration, what are you choosing? Quote repost and please add an image I'm not physic.

Incredible documentary! Great insight about EGM's early days. They were right about GamePro appealing to kids (like me), but I did start getting into EGM from '98 when they previewed Final Fantasy VIII.
EGM is where I found out Breath of Fire III would be a PS1 exclusive. Broke my N64 kid heart.

If you haven't had a chance to check out the "Pixels to Pages: The Story of Electronic Gaming Monthly" documentary from @gamesack.net and MLiG, take a break from Metroid Prime 4 and give it a watch here! youtu.be/E010OPY1Tzw

Today marks 10 years since I moved to the Bay Area! I remember taking an early, empty flight from NJ, listening to the Street Fighter II The Definitive Soundtrack along the way, landing in a rainy SF and spotting Psychonauts/Brütal Legend director Tim Schafer at the airport (a good omen?).

Great read. I know a few of the Yacht Club Games guys personally and I really hope Mina the Hollower's a hit for them. I really loved the demo and had backed the game on Kickstarter, and I'll happily rebuy Shovel Knight: Shovel of Hope DX whenever that gets re-released.
I think it's worth pointing out that very few video-game companies are as transparent as Shovel Knight maker Yacht Club Games, and I appreciate that the studio was so candid about their story and why their next game, Mina the Hollower, has taken so long

My Spotify Wrapped is...I stopped using Spotify. I like ripping my music CDs, buying on Bandcamp, and if I urgently want to listen to something I don't have, I'll seek it out on YouTube or whatever.

Yesterday, I saw Brandish SNES being sold at a local game shop for $24.99. Normally it goes for ~$90 just for the cart. I asked them if it was a repro, 'cause I couldn't believe my eyes. They discovered they mispriced it as a SFC cart and updated the price to $99.99. 🥴

I have the absolute worst luck with buying secondhand Dreamcast games. Can't catch a break with the heavy hitters sometimes; even when the disc gets resurfaced I get read issues.

I recall the back of the Ghosts n’ Goblins NES box showed the arcade or maybe PC version of the game, and man was I disappointed when I plugged it in and that was not how it looked!

That time in third grade during music class when we sang a song about the things we were thankful for, and when the music teacher pointed at me:
Cassette: "I'M THAAAANKFUL, FOR..."
Me: "...Mortal Kombat II."
