A bit under the weather, so give me an extra day on the video, folks.

Spoilers for the video: the PAC-MAN Atari 2600+ is REALLY cool.

Not sure what the A/B/C test is gonna show to folks tomorrow for the VGM unboxing video, so I just want to share my silly thumbnail I did arts and crafts for during my lunch break today at work. 🤣

Arcades are alive and well in Minneapolis at Up-Down! I was in Minneapolis recently for a work trip, and our team went out to Up-Down in Minneapolis. We had an absolute blast and played a ton of #arcade games, #pinball, and a killer game of tactile #Pong.

Friends!

Didn't get home from PGX until almost 2 AM last night, and then turned around and did an 8 hour day at work - so I'm sorry to say things'll be delayed until Wednesday for the next video. Thanks for your understanding!

Well that's a lovely way to start a Friday! Thank you all so much for your support. Love you all 3000.

Onward and Upward.
