I loved seeing this store in Fargo and Shameless.

Check the English price for Fire Emblem…

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 13/09/2026

I love that game. It’s not hard, but it takes a bit to understand the flow. I beat the Switch version last year.

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 02/09/2026

I’ve seen the same results, but Divinity 2 worked even though it’s Namco Bandai, so there are some exceptions.

I’m so happy that Microsoft is doing this. I have to admit that it’s more convenient to not have to go shuffling though discs to play stuff, but I like the collecting, security, potential for resale, and sense of value of physical games. Huge bump in goodwill over here. Thanks Microsoft!

And these are the games I haven’t opened yet. Supposedly everything on the right works and everything on the left may or may not work. Not sure if any of these are going to go up in value so I’m hesitant to open them, but I’m tempted.

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 02/09/2026

These games did not work. It’s mostly games by @square-enix-games.com , @ubisoft.com, @segaofamerica.bsky.social, and @namcobandai.bsky.social. Surprising misses are the Tony Hawk games and Quantum Break.

My experience with Xbox Disc to Digital. The following games worked! Everything from Capcom and Take 2, and most games from Microsoft, EA, and random small publishers

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 11/08/2026

Dumb answer, but… replace the buttons with small punching bags inlaid within the cabinet to more easily detect and viscerally feel the pressure sensitive weak vs strong attacks. That was one of the core ideas in Street Fighter 1 that was dropped later in the series but could have been expanded on.

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 07/08/2026

I feel like it should be a bigger story that Halo Campaign Evolved on Disc is sold out everywhere for Xbox and going for three times the retail price on EBay.

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 29/07/2026

Come to this event next week! Lots of games to play and cool creative people to meet.

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 28/07/2026

Just saw that was a thing. Crazy!

He could always just… sign in?

I made a roguelike that lives on your Apple Watch. Time is your resource. Focus is your sight. It recovers over real-world hours, and the dungeon keeps hunting while you’re away. How deep can you get? apps.apple.com/us/app/time-...

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 08/07/2026

You mean UnderMine with a few other games?

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 04/07/2026

I canceled auto-renew on my PS+ Subscription and cancelled my Halo Campaign Evolved Preorder on PlayStation to get it on Xbox instead. I realize that it’s likely a losing battle, but the reality is that I like physical games and want to continue supporting their existence for as long as I can.

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 15/06/2026

Ha! I played it every day for years! Loved it!

010

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 13/05/2026

I had a bug in the Roguelike mode of my dungeon minesweeper game (Gravesweeper) that only showed up if someone got every possible item in the game, which meant getting to floor 250-something in a permadeath mode. Someone did it. I was surprised and delighted.

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 09/05/2026

Rusty’s Real Deal Baseball is such a weird way to do a free game. I would love to get your take on it.

000

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 03/05/2026

Saros is pretty good. The haptics, sound design, and graphics are outstanding and really pull you into the game. Despite this, I think it’s hard to come back to because I have no idea what the heck is going on.

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 18/04/2026

Pragmata is really great. I thought the little android girl looked dumb, but I’m kind of digging the character dynamics. I like that the game gets right into having interesting levels and doesn’t dumb things down too much in the beginning. It also looks phenomenal on Switch 2. Excited to play more!

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 16/04/2026

Terrible aspect ratios like this in your 4 billion dollars a year game are what happens when you fire 1,000 people. #fortnite

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 10/04/2026

Yeah, I think most people dismissed it when it came out as a throwaway bonus like the recent Meetup in Bellabel Park for Mario Wonder, but Bowser’s Fury is more of a 6 hour template of how to do an emergent open world platformer without compromising what makes Mario games fun.

000

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 10/04/2026

Bowser’s Fury is the best Super Mario game

120

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 10/04/2026

I love Zelda 2 also, but it’s relative. I also love Ocarina of Time!

000

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 10/04/2026

Is this actually your opinion or just a take?

100

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 22/03/2026

I legitimately don’t remember. That was almost 20 years ago. I just looked at a guide and bought whatever it said. You can also just delete the game content for games you aren’t actively playing right now.

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 21/03/2026

You can upgrade the PS3’s hard drive pretty easily and it’s fully supported. No need to get a new system. Copy your save games to a USB stick and swap it out.

110

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 18/03/2026

I have no idea. I played it in English. I don’t really remember the story at all.

010

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 18/03/2026

I LOVED it. Highly recommended.

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 14/03/2026

My son picked the #randomgamesaturday. He picked Soul Calibur V for Xbox 360, which apparently featured Ezio from Assassin’s Creed.

050

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 07/03/2026

Today’s #randomgamesaturday is HomeLand. A weird Japan only MMORPG game for the GameCube.

091

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 07/03/2026

This game is phenomenal. I’ve been playing off and on for years.

010

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 21/02/2026

Kind of depends on if it’s good or not!

100

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 21/02/2026

Excellent game. The newer remake improves the UX a bit, but makes some weird decisions on how to update the graphics. That version is pretty much perfect.

110

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 19/02/2026

I did, but I don’t mind cut content. I’d rather have a short game that I finish than a long one that I quit because of too much filler.

000

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 19/02/2026

The remake was ragged on by people, but I thought it was pretty good. I never beat the original but I did finish the remake.

110

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 07/02/2026

Today’s #RandomGameSaturday is Pocket Kingdom for the N-Gage. I chose it because I didn’t know it existed, let alone that I own it. I’m doubting that it’s still playable 🤣

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 02/02/2026

I ran the 15th St. Louis Global Game Jam this weekend! Together around 95 of us in person at UMSL and online made 29 games with the theme of Mask. My team made a visual novel about a photojournalist discovering corruption at a politician’s ball. Play it here: midnightlaunchgames.com/games/webofd...

It’s also already too heavy. They’d be better off making a portrait mode kickstand.

Wes Ehrlichman @superwes.bsky.social · 14/01/2026

I played a lot of Switch this year…
