Happy #CrashCommunityDay, everyone!

Unfortunately, the notion of making a video and/or streaming this year kind of went out the window partly due to tech issues and being a bit under the weather.

On the plus side, here's a Crash Bandicoot keyring I found out in the wild!

SIX THOOOOOUUUSAAAAAAAAAND!

Thank you to everyone who has subscribed to my channel, ever since I decided to take a chance and switch to Crash Bandicoot and Spyro videos way back in September 2019 during the height of the Crash Team Racing: Nitro-Fueled days!

So close... I can almost taste it.

Just wanted to thank everyone for the birthday wishes here on Bluesky, as well as Discord and Twitter!

Didn't properly count how many there were, but there were certainly a fair few!

As for how I celebrated my 28th, I just had a quiet one at home with my partner and our cats.

EB Games NZ had their Cheap Tuesday special yesterday, and to my surprise, there was a deal for Crash Team Rumble for $15.

All copies on PS4 and PS5 sold out both in-stores across the country and online.

If you still play Rumble, prepare for some new players from New Zealand.

On top of that, we have a second attempt at a pizza dough. I've left it oiled in the bowl, covered overnight in order for the yeast to rise properly, and will use it tomorrow for another go at making pizza!

Tonight in Kiwi's Kitchen, it's a double helping! A 2-for-1 special!

On the menu tonight, we have pasta spirals in a modified bolognese sauce, with added cheese, to make the sauce extra cheesy. Topped with a cheese garnish and a spritz of pepper.

I think I'm getting the knack of this dough-making business!

Really miss playing the Steam Playtest Beta of The Karters 2: Turbo Charged right about now.

It's such a fun game, like Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled and ModNation Racers had a baby with an immense amount of community made mods.

Give The Karters 2 a look and wishlist it on Steam. You'll love it!

Found this old clip from like 2021 or 2022 on my phone's SD card of my old cat Floof watching me play the Spyro Reignited Trilogy and being obsessed with Sparx.

I miss this little guy. RIP Floof.

On tonight's menu in Kiwi's Kitchen:

Nachos with a homemade cheese sauce comprised of flour and butter to make a roux, milk, salt and pepper to taste, and edam cheese, combined with a chopped green onion.

And finished with a sprinkling of pepper and an onion garnish.

Delish!

I'm thinking about making videos again on YouTube at some point really soon.

I wanted a new channel intro, which was short, sweet, and summed up my channel.

So, here is my new channel intro. Made by me, and inspired by Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time.

I am quite proud of how it turned out.

Team Sonic Racing - Launched May 2019 on PS4, Xbox One, Switch and PC, sold 3.5 million copies.
Gets a sequel in the form of Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds.

Crash Team Racing: Nitro-Fueled - Launched June 2019 on PS4, Xbox One, and Switch, sold 10 million copies.
No sequel or follow-up.

Madness.

Reminds me of this ancient clip from Caddicarus' video on Crash Bash.

Incidentally, it was the first Caddy video I ever watched way back in like 2013.

God, I feel old...

Anyway, now I'm back. Here's a homemade pizza I made tonight.

Danish salami and onion, with a whole lot of cheese, with a base sauce made of tomato paste.

The actual pizza base itself was also homemade (first time ever), and I tried to make it a stuffed crust, but it didn't quite *pan* out. 😅🍕

Crash Bandicoot fans, in particular Crash Team Racing fans, I know you are desperate for new content, or a 4K re-release of Crash Team Racing: Nitro-Fueled with crossplay and a Steam port for PC.

But listen, this is fake. A complete fabrication.

And here's Jonathan Frakes to tell you as much:

Woo! Thanks for 200 followers, everyone! 😁

Lovely views on the way home from down South.

Big news today: We hit 5k subscribers on my YouTube channel!

Thank you to all of the Crash Bandicoot and Spyro the Dragon fans who have joined us since I started doing this content from October 2019 up to now!

I haven't made any new content since August 2023, so I should really come out of hiatus!

As someone who still doesn't own a Nintendo Switch in 2024, hearing official confirmation that the Switch successor (Switch 2/Super Switch?) will be backward compatible is fantastic news.

I think this console will be a massive hit.

Morning folks!

Here's a picture of the noisy little fluffball that lives at the place I'm staying at.

You'd never guess this cat is 11 years old, would you?

Yeah, I don't think I'd blame Americans for wanting to live in New Zealand right about now.

Our gas prices are shit, but if you can get over that, you'll be fine.

23. Gang Beasts (2017)

Haven't played this one in a long time, but it was a lot of fun with friends.

I loved the different maps you could play on and just trying to sabotage other players, all while making sure you weren't caught off guard.

I might need to play this one again at some point soon.

I've seen a few posts of people doing some impressions of video game and film/TV characters.

And I remembered that a couple of years ago, I had a go at doing an impression of Nitros Oxide from the Crash Bandicoot games, using a scene from Crash Team Racing.

I think it went well!

Woooooo!

Thank you to the 100 people who've already followed me here on Bluesky!

(Now watch as I say this, and miraculously go down to 99 or less followers! 😂)

But seriously, I'm already at basically 1/14th of the following I have on Twitter. How cool is that?

Here's to the next 100!
