Sooo, actual question coming from someone who never was going to play Cyberpunk: what's the purpose of the genital customization? Like, why is this a thing that time and money was spent on when (presumably) it'll rarely come up in gameplay?

lol m2k

So Nintendo blocked the entire soundtracks for SM64, OoT, and MKWii from GilvaSunner's Youtube channel. And they're still unavailable to purchase or to stream. I'm so tired of watching them pull the same crap year after year.

Back home from my first opening shift at work in over two weeks. Had to fill in on nights while someone was out on vacation. I'd love to take a nap but I have to open again tomorrow. :(

Been thinking about doing the blog thing for the first time in years. Don't know if I want to vent about stuff I really should pay a therapist for or whine about Pokemon.

I know having your favorite character be the brooding rival of any given anime is the most basic bitch thing ever, but Seto Kaiba really is the best character in Yugioh and I think this moment is what sealed the deal for me.

I've been rekindling my love of Digimon the past few years thanks to the (pretty terrible) Tri series, but I've been playing the games this past year too! I quite admire their willingness to tap into their inner 12 year old edgelord when making designs.

It was an open secret that Project M died to secure Melee's competitive future but seeing the stories come out about just how screwed over the PM community was by Twitch and Nintendo freaking sucks, man. All for a company that refuses to support us.

I got into watching Kiwami's weird ass knife making videos about a year ago to kill time at work and let me tell you, it's a hell of a gateway drug into the woodturning/restoration side of youtube. Kiwami is still the top dog as far as I'm concerned tho.

heheh nice

Been a while, huh?

Aaaand I'm out! Didn't make it out of my pool, but I didn't completely buster out either - went 2-2. Amusingly, Kirby gave my Dedede quite a bit of trouble. Pic is my pickups from the con, minus Pokémon Conquest. Now to prepare for my Ultimate pool!

Chilling over at the dining area at SmashCon, waiting for my Brawl pool to start. Just 20 minutes to go! Tomorrow morning is Ultimate. :)

These little buggers finally arrived after the release date was pushed back! Sorry for potato quality, lights in living room don't work. Impressions in comments I guess.

Guys, a new Pokemon prototype has surfaced! While it's unfortunately not publicly available, this one predates Pokemon Red and Green and contains elements from the original "Capumon" concept! Link in comments.

I ain't been around, so I don't know if y'all have been watching AGDQ, but I'm having a blast! Today's the last day so I plan to make the most of it before I have to head back home. Side note- placed 7th at the Smash Ultimate tournament we ran here!

Asked for two days off to play Ultimate, management gave me 3. Yo, I ain't gonna complain. A three day weekend to play Ultimate and enter my first Ultimate tournament on Sunday sounds like a swell fuckin' deal to me.

Stick in my GC controller was starting to act funky...was worried I'd have to desolder it and stuff, but my stick uses a plastic stick box. Those are just screwed on, so I swapped it with the c-stick's box and it seems to be playing better now.

Nintendo Switch Online is pathetic, and the fact they warned users beforehand doesn't excuse the fact that they're charging for such an undercooked service. It's fine if you're excited, but this has really disappointed me as a Nintendo fan.

Quick everyone, act surprised!

I think my favorite thing about playing the original Pokemon games is that there always seems to be something that catches me off guard. I know a ridiculous amount about the game, yet I was blown away when I found I could teach my Shellder Teleport.

Good news! Gamecube-style pro controllers being made for Switch. Bad news....they're third party. However, from my experience Power A's Switch controllers have been far above the usual trash, though not Nintendo-quality. Link in comments!

Got in on the prototype Pokemon fun this morning with one of my favorites of the bunch. I might touch this up sometime when I get the time.

Got Project M working with the Gamecube Controller Adapter on my Wii U today...brings back memories. I miss my community college days when I sometimes skipped class to play this in the lounge all day.

Sounds like GCU might be dead. https://twitter.com/Wario64/status/997610067644985344

James Turner, one of the members of Game Freak responsible for monster design, shared some images from a manga telling the story of Satoshi Tajiri and Pokemon. This page has some unused Pokemon! I like the deer near the top (conveniently named "Deer")!

I haven't been around much, so I'm not sure if the people who've been keeping up have seen it, but the final part of Digimon Adventure Tri released earlier this month. It was Okay but it suffers a lot from the problems introduced in the previous 5.

It came about a whole month after I ordered it...but my Super Gameboy 2 arrived! It plays games at the proper clockspeed and has a built in link port, unlike the original. My other SGB had graphical issues that this one doesn't, which is another bonus!

Oh...oh my. Regardless of your feelings on Liam Robertson or GG (not spelling out the full name cause I'm unsure if it's blocked or not), Playasia is pulling some REAL unprofessional shit on twitter. Pics in comments.
