How are they gonna fix all the bugs in Silksong without completely destroying the game?

Happy 40th Anniversary, Super Mario Bros! #SuperMario #Nintendo #SuperMario40th

Mega Victreebel's design speaks to me as someone who loved playing with giant water balloons as a kid.

Watching Sakurai during the Kirby Air Riders Direct was a treat. I love his enthusiasm and sense of humor, and he clearly knows the fans of this game.

After a month of searching, and another month of not having the time, I'm finally ready to play my Switch 2.

If the Z-A starters do get mega evolutions (which I’m 99% sure they will), my only hope is Mega Feraligatr looks cool.

I miss opening real packs of Pokémon cards. Yeah TCG Pocket scratches that itch a little, but it's not the same. Plus I'm getting bored/frustrated with the app.

My night’s about to get really weird.

I’m about to cross something off my bucket list.

Switch 2 acquired!

Donkey Kong Bananza looks incredible! Really hope I can get a Switch 2 by the time it comes out.

Just when I thought I was done with Splatoon 3, they give us third kits AND Urchin Underpass. Well played, Nogami.

Wasn't able to get a Switch 2 today. I don't mind waiting a little longer to get it, and I'm happy to see everyone who did get it is having fun.

My original plan was to take the day off tomorrow and get a Switch 2 at midnight, but things came up and now I have to hope I can find one after work tomorrow. Plus there's supposedly severe weather coming in and I don't wanna deal with that.

Funny how a silly game about squids has had such an impact on me from the people I've met to the experiences I've had. Happy 10th Anniversary to Splatoon! I'm so happy to have you in my life.

Apparently there was a strong storm last night which lead to a tornado warning with sirens going off in my area, and I slept through the whole thing.

After some digging, I have confirmed my Switch 2 preorder was cancelled. Guess the only thing I can do now is hope there's another preorder window or just wait until launch day to try and find one.

Update: I went to check out my order status and Target says it has been cancelled, but the payment was still taken. I'm gonna do some digging and see if I can get a definitive answer.

Here’s my Switch 2 preorder story. I was on the Target site at midnight ready to go. Had to deal with site problems, but I eventually placed my preorder. I immediately get an email back saying it was cancelled. Well great, looks like I lost sleep for nothing.

Finally watched the Mario Kart World Direct. I'm a bit mixed on the art style, but it's overall good. The trick system looks fun and could open the door for some crazy routes. Still not sure if it's worth the $80 price tag.

I saw A Minecraft Movie for my birthday. It's just as stupid and bad as everyone says it is and I unfortunately didn't have the theater experience some people did on opening weekend, but I still enjoyed it.

Of course I'd get sick a day before my birthday.

Nintendo really cut out Totaka's Song from the one Luigi's Mansion track on their music app, huh.

Now that things have calmed down, I just wanna give my thoughts on the Switch 2. Overall the system sounds pretty good even though a lot of its new features have been standard with other consoles for the last few years.

Finally got around to watching the Switch 2 Direct and…wow.

Tomorrow might be the first time I won't be able to watch a Nintendo Direct live and of course it's had to be the most important ones.

Today's Direct was overall ok. Pretty much what I expected considering the Switch 2 Direct is next week. Metroid Prime 4's looking great, and I'm happy we're getting a new Rhythm Heaven and Tomodachi Life.

Here's my submission for the contest. I'm really happy with how it turned out. #RollinRascal

The Day the Earth Blew Up is such a fun and charming movie; not to mention fantastically animated. It a shame it's doing poorly at the box office because of how awful the marketing for it was.

Man I really wanted to have something out for Mario Day especially since it's his 40th anniversary, but I've been so busy with other stuff that I haven't had time make anything.

I don't think anyone was expecting the Legends Z-A starters to be what they are, but I think it's a good group regardless. Although I do have a clear choice out of the three unlike with Legends Arceus.

Legends Z-A looks promising from the trailer. Right off the bat, the art style’s a major step up from Scarlet and Violet and dare I say it’s the best looking mainline Pokémon game on the Switch.

Does anyone else miss when Lego had original IPs to make sets from and not just make ones for licensed franchises?

Really wanted to make something for Valentines Day this year, but wasn't able to due to personal reasons. Hope everyone had a great day regardless.

I still enjoy playing Splatoon 3, but it can really foul my mood sometimes. I know it's just a game and it's all about having fun in the end, but being on a losing streak can dappen your mood real fast.

Finally beat Mario and Luigi: Brothership and I'm so glad this was a good game. It's easily become my third favorite in the series behind Superstar Saga and Bowser's Inside Story.

Of course Wonderful Precure had to end as soon as I was interested in watching it.

Today I learned the SpongeBob episode Mid-Life Crustacean has been banned since 2018.

I don't know how to feel about Donkey Kong's new design. On one hand it does harken back to his classic arcade look, but on the other hand his Rare design is much more iconic and the one I grew up with. Guess it depends on if this is his permanent look going forward.

I don't care if my team lost. I think it's hilarious Big Man keeps winning the seasonal Splatfests.

There's a bunch of cool Pokémon cards out right now or will be coming out. Too bad I can't find any packs or bundles at a reasonable price.

Is there a gym out there that's powered by their members using the elliptical machines?

Also a new icon!

Packing up and moving over here!

The only thing I missed out on by not watching The Game Awards this year was the Okami sequel announcement.

Think it's time to spruce up my profile.

Mario & Luigi are back, and I couldn't be happier! #Nintendo

My submission for this year's Pokémon Illustration Contest. I didn't make it into the Top 300, but I'm still happy I got to draw one of my favorite mons. #PTCGIC2024

Callie and Marie in their FrostyFest attire!
