It's a hobby, not an obligation. If you're having fun, great! If not, you can do something else. If structure makes it more fun for you, knock yourself out. If it makes the hobby onto a chore, you can go without structure. You do you.

It's on like Donkey Kong.

It's too bad it's all just made up, because they'd be shocked if he came back and said the same things as last time.

At this point, I'll take what I can get. Please be good. 🤞

Legendary video game creators Harumi Fujita (Bionic Commando, Final Fight), Kenji Ito (Mana, SaGa), Takaya Imamura (F-Zero, Star Fox), and Kouichi Morita (VNs) have formed a new band called Musou Infinity. Their first concert is set for 5/15 in Osaka. youtu.be/imLeNmOaNTY

But seriously. There are too many to fit into just 9.

Just hook it to my veins!

So much for avoiding the launch window for Mario Tennis Fever. Maybe I'll finally be able to finish Mario Clash now.

Bring back the phone!

It was a way better film than Lost in Translation, despite the lack of Scarlett Johansson.

Somehow I don't think he deserves a stolen Nobel Peace Prize medal or a FIFA Peace Prize.

How it started, how it's going.

Winner! Thanks for playing.

Yo! It's #GamingNewsRecap Day! This week, PlayStation is reportedly changing their OC strategy, Phil Spencer retired and Pokemon Winds and Waves got announced. 4 Pages:

Round 30, FIGHT!

a terrible AI ad went viral in Japan and people started trying to make the nonsense curries featured in the ad in real life

Metacritic has sent a reminder email to all games site editors/publishers which is pretty strong, and great:

FFS. What are we even doing here?

Hey, it's Kabuki-chou! #歌舞伎町

I can hear this drawing. このお絵描き聴こえる。

If every Democratic member of Congress created just a 1-minute disruption each, it could be dragged out for an extra 4 hours and 19 minutes, long past his point of exhaustion.

My wish list for #VirtualBoy ー Nintendo Classics: 1. New games! 2. More unreleased games, incl. Bound High 3. The complete lineup, incl. rarities like Virtual Lab 4. Virtual Boy controller accessory 5. Colorized DX game editions 6. Proper boxart for all titles 7. Turn off system notifications

You can just waltz right into any store nowadays and buy a Japanese-only Switch 2.

The legacy of Phil Spencer: a lot of nice words, but no real conviction or plan to save Xbox, just a lot of half-measures, false starts and empty laments. ravi64.com/phil-spencer...

Makes you wonder what English will be like in 1000 years.

Round 29, FIGHT!

Do want. 😷

They bet the farm on Game Pass and lost. This looks like managing-the-decline mode.

Today, February 21st, 2026, is the 40th anniversary of The Legend of Zelda.

I've owned a PS1, PS2, PS3, PS4, and PS5. I owned a PSP Go. I owned both models of Vita. I even briefly owned a second PS2 for playing import games. Sony, you gotta give me a reason to buy your next system and "We're firing every studio that makes games that you like" ain't it.

Okay, I'll say it. Only 4 new episodes of #MST3K would be extremely disappointing, especially if the crowdfunding takes in $5m.

Another day, another new Yahoo Japan mailing list to unsubscribe from.

Oh, I know.

Hasn't anyone just tried control-alt-deleting the singularity?

What a year, huh?

How long until someone mods their inert hunk of plastic shaped like a Virtual Boy to have working audio and original controller connections?

Singing in the sunshine, laughing in the rain...

You have no chance to survive make your time.

"Welcome to space world! Let's go!" #VirtualBoy

Brand new footage of the Virtual Boy debut in 1995. It would have been cool to include these non-interactive demos in the Switch release! People love squinting at the Super Mario one!

LFG! #VirtualBoy

OMG!

It's been almost 2 years since the collection was all but finished. What have I bought online since then? Not much, really. Just two game purchases last year.
