I just realized I’ve posted about our dearly departed Onion, and our baby Button, but never our sweet boy Mushroom! Anyway, this is Mushroom. He will lick you because his brain is wrong.

It’s rarely brought up, but Sega has its own take on the Zelda formula courtesy of the same developers behind Streets of Rage 2! Join me, @steve.gvg.io, and @brandon.gvg.io as we go over our first experience with Beyond Oasis! youtu.be/ctA1GvO1iEc?...

I think consoles are going the smartphone route. When’s the last time you saw a smartphone advertised by MSRP rather than monthly payments?

Rebirth is best elsewhere, but this is hands-down the best price-to-performance portable experience you can have.

I couldn't help myself

A made-up 90's style ad for Donkey Kong Country featuring a close-up of a monkey staring directly at the camera with the phrase "Action so intense, you'll forget that you sh*t in the woods" and three screenshots from the game.

Nintendo sent me the following comment regarding differences in Rhythm Heaven Groove between reveal and this week’s gameplay footage: “Nintendo Directs may contain footage of content under development.” Hard to say what that means, but sounds like the original version is gone.

Happy sixth anniversary to Animal Crossing New Horizons! I have so many wonderful memories with this game, it's difficult to put into words how much it means to me. It's the game that finally got my mom to share my favorite pastime with me. I'll love ACNH forever.
