Damn just got all the way to the final boss of Sonic 2 with all chaos emeralds my first time trying as Knuckles, but even with 4 continues I kept messing up on the egg bot I even resorted to watching a video guide on my last continue and still ended up with game over 😞

Haven’t finished Sonic 2 yet but got the Sonic and Knuckles cart today so naturally had to try with Knuckles

I am just not a single genre type of gamer, end of last year my mindset was going all in on JRPGs, and I do love JRPGs but I thrive on variety Lately been playing Sea of Stars, Sonic 2, and a couple bullet hells (Mushihimesama and Blue Wish Resurrection Plus)

End thoughts on SMTV, I did 3 endings total - 2 in CoC and 1 CoV First playthrough was great, totally in love but on NG+ and CoV I was tired of the huge open areas and going through fast I realized how weak the writing is Overall 6/10, but interested in other SMT titles because combat was 10/10

These are the Sonic games I’m planning on playing, I’m going in release order not timeline Asterisks mean I plan on playing it but might go out of order for that one

Been working on this all week, beat Sonic 1 today with 6 chaos emeralds! Can move on to 2 now!

This game is quite literally taunting me

GRAVITY RUSH

Playing Sea of Stars still and as much as I’m loving the gameplay I am really put off by all the 4th wall jokes and modern dialogue quips. Story is good and the characters are likable, but the dialogue feels off. Which is sad because it started strong and around the pirates started going downhill.

Started Sea of Stars, this game is absolutely stunning, really pushes the boundaries of pixel art Really fun too!

This game looks amazing, I know SNES can technically display more colors and has real transparency and all that but the Genesis does look really good still

Hunting down all the early Sonic games so I'll need to build this monstrosity, it's a struggle finding good deals on some of this Also MAYBE the Power Base Converter for the 8 bit Sonic 1 and 2

I got a Genesis and Sonic 2, but Sonic 1 won’t be coming til Monday, should I just start with Sonic 2?

There are so many Sonic games

Stumbled across the mess of HD CRT videos on YT I'm begging you Please do not use HD CRTs for games from the 16 to 32 bit eras it's a waste and doesn't make sense, these are 4:3 games built for SD CRTs Just get a regular CRT and composite cable, that's what everyone really used in the 90s anyway

Star Fox holds up so well. There is maybe one boss (not this one) where you have to fight against the controls a little but for the most part it’s got all the charm I remember I have a lot of admiration for older games where you just pick it up and play, get as far as you can and that’s that

Found this video on why CRTs are better for retro systems, describes it well and gives great examples Only note would be it shows many examples very zoomed which can look bad and unlike it would look on CRT, though I understand that's probably to better show differences from pixel perfect displays

When the Switch 2 was announced for the first hour or so I thought it was coming out in April, and I still think about it

WIP >.<

Love this game, absolutely epic

Oh hey there’s a PS1 in Maya and Ulala's apartment in Persona 2

Something quite different than my usual I drew Sonic!

This naming is confusing ngl, and please no spoilers I’m playing EP right now but… - Persona 2: IS main character is Tatsuya Suou - P2EP this guy in below screenshot is Tatsuya Sudou - And Tatsuya Sudou's father is Tatsuzou Sudou So… Tatsuya Suou Tatsuya Sudou Tatsuzou Sudou

Mai costume is confusing to Mika

My new hyperfixation has become Sega, been reading about their history and researching games for the different consoles like crazy I don’t know a lot about Sega so this is really fun, also I’m learning about a ton of games that look really unique - seems to be a lot of potential hidden gems 👀

Games on your backlog you’re tackling this year (hopefully!):

I'm late I'm late!! #portfolioday I'm Cravat and I love shading with black!

Switch 2 looks great, I like the sleek design, and is that a new Mario Kart? 👀 youtu.be/itpcsQQvgAQ?...

I wanna draw but also don’t wanna draw

Made an art summary of what I've done since starting last year, this is nearly everything I've completed, and covers almost all art I've posted to date You might recognize @kaatokunart.bsky.social's OC Lyra done for their DTIYS in top middle 😊 (used the incredible power of ms paint to make this)

Got true neutral CoC ending in SMTV, also reloaded and did regular neutral But then learned about clear save files with the stars for the endings, and ending demons/miracles/achievements Don’t normally do this completionist stuff but now I’m thinking of doing NG+ to get all endings on one save 🤔

Apparently it’s #portfolioday? I’m an anime character artist, so far I’ve done mostly fan art focusing on improving my technique, but doing more OCs is a big goal for me Most of my best pieces are pinned, but if you want an easy way to view my art go to: cara.app/typeclint

Just want to say I absolutely hate sealed collecting, grading, and things like reg cards or fucking ads still being in the box. It just inflates prices so someone can put it on a shelf and never touch it. Games are interactive media and this stuff does nothing but restrict the retro market.

I’m still working on SMTV, I’m at the end of Canon of Creation have a couple quests left trying to get true neutral ending - the lvl 94 and 99 one - have done all others Going to do Canon of Vengeance still but this might really be my favorite game, has challenged some of what I thought about JRPGs

Brought my daughter to her first retro game store. This isn't even half the hardware this place has 😱

I need to figure out how feeds work or maybe find another platform I can link with portfolio (that doesn’t push AI), I think there needs to be an easy way people can see just my art without the other clutter of my feed

Post a female anime character you love (how about 4?)

Was comparing this more since both push digital more anyway One more thing I recently learned is Series X physical discs only hold about half as much as a PS5 disc so Series X games are more likely to require a download (blu ray discs are BD25/BD50 on X vs BD66/BD100 on PS5)
