Dang it, I’ve already spent too much this month, but I can’t pass on these.

Might need to learn how to paint mini figs.

you arent a burden. you are a human being with wants and needs. having desires does not make you selfish. unless you are sonic, in which case you are not human and everything you do sickens me.

“Pauline, go play with Diddy and Dixie for a while.”

Donkey Kong and Pauline in DK’s House, along with statues of Candy Kong and Poppy Kong. DK plans to Slamma his Banana.

Finally completed Splatoon Raiders. Pretty fun game. Definitely gets intense at times. Hope they do something like this again in the future.

Look, the Zelda Ocarina of Time remake can look like Nintendo hired this man, and it can be hype as hell. Those things aren’t mutually exclusive! If people could accept Fantastic Mr. Star Fox, they can accept this.

Finally beat the secret boss of Splatoon Raiders. Still need to hunt down all the relics, but hopefully that’ll be easier than the hell of Floors 97-99.

It’s funny to me that Splatoon Raiders has difficulty options, but once you get to post-game, the devs pull the rug from under you and force you on to Survivalist.

In an amusing twist, someone is donating a sketch to raffle off to my following. So hey, repost, like and follow this message for a sketch that helped feed my eccentric and expensive ice cream habit today XD.

Finally got to the end of DK Bananza. By every measure, this game should be a system seller. Just a barrel of fun.

I’m so sick of Sega acting like the Sonic games between 3 & Knuckles and Colors don’t exist.

The new Xenoblade game has a different name depending on the region you're in.

Fairly good Direct. Big wins for Xenoblade, Zelda, and DK fans. Unfortunately, we also learned that Koizumi is a FRAUD.

As you can see, Xbox held their presentation on 6/7, while Nintendo is holding theirs on 6/9. This is due to their core company missives; Nintendo holds fast to traditional (and successful!) gamer values, whereas Xbox is a brand that constantly tries to remain relevant by latching onto trends

I don't work at Limited Run anymore, so I have no incentive to sell these releases outside of wanting to see them succeed, but I haven't seen LRG mention something key. These games are part of a series of games that always become notoriously expensive and sought after by collectors.

“Hey so I may have betrayed my stated values and my fans and my community, but obviously I should double down because a tiny fraction of the feedback I’ve gotten is indefensible” didn’t work for JK Rowling and won’t work for other once-beloved creators. Try having integrity ffs

Gameoverse comic idea: Farcade crew pulls up to a planet. Kit: Alright, team. Let’s get down there and stop the her- Planet starts to self-destruct. Kit: What?! We just got here! Kaboodle, shifting the ship into reverse: F**king speedrunners…

Man, my Bsky feed today is full of a lot of mealy-mouthed walk backs. No, fam, the enemy of my enemy is NOT my friend and I'm not gonna ignore decades of cruelty and greed because I like who he's attacking. So, no, I will NOT be siding with Coyote against ACME and will be taking no further questions
