I genuinely can’t believe this. There’s bad luck then there’s this. Shout out to big VGC Discorder James for this absolute howler.

I will be on BBC Radio Scotland in about 10 minutes chatting about Pokemon! UK folk: www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

Happy 30th, Pokemon. These games mean the absolute world to me. My first, and most intense gaming obsession. You may have noticed. In recent years, it's also been the catalyst for some of my most cherished memories. Here's to many, many more.

Pokémon Day - and the likely reveal of Gen 10 - is here. Here's what the biggest Pokémon fans in games media - including @apzonerunner.com, @stormscribe.bsky.social, @jamesbatchelor.bsky.social, @grapedosmil.bsky.social, and @jordanmiddler.bsky.social - want to see later today:

Undefeated. *slight caveat being that there’s legit 25 people on this flight.

The games media is set for yet more layoffs, after IGN-owned Eurogamer and its network of sites launched another wave of editorial cuts this week, VGC understands. vgc.news/news/games-m...

I’m very surprised more people aren’t talking about Resident Evil’s secret post-game cutscene.

Every single quote from the new regime makes more sense if you read it in the voice of Stewart Pearson.

At EUIC I had a sit down with VGC to talk about Pokémon over the last 30 years as well as some of my own history Be sure to check it out

THEE Mr Pokemon. Thanks to Joe for taking the time out of his unending schedule to come on the pod. Serebii GOATED.

It's rare you record a nearly two-hour long episode and it's not even nearly enough. Thanks to my lovely mate @jennynicholson.bsky.social for joining me! Out now:

Ah yes, who doesn’t fondly remember the Xbox launch of 1988?

Nintendo is sending PNGs of Banjo with the word “tenner” scrawled on them to Microsoft.

The Xbox license fire sale is going to be generational. Will move heaven and earth to assure VGC ends up with Wet.

Big “Ted Turner no longer controls WCW” energy. Grim.

If the pre-Switch games were ever going to come back (and at times they really seemed like they weren't), there's no way they were going to be part of Nintendo Switch online. Firstly, because this will make an absolute power of cash, and secondly because NSO could easily break Pokemon Home.

Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen are coming to the Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 next week, but they won’t be part of NSO. www.videogameschronicle.com/news/pokemon...

I simply don’t understand how you can’t find something for Bluepoint to do, especially when you’re swimming in IP. Unbelievably talented studio. Horrible news.

PlayStation is closing Demon’s Souls remake studio Bluepoint Games, five years after its acquisition. vgc.news/news/sony-is...

VGC: The Video Game Podcast’s next guest needs no introduction.

Biblically accurate sized Jordan Middler

Thanks to everyone who came to our panel at Pokemon EUIC, and thanks to Pokemon for letting me shout about Charjabug in front of a live audience.

Happy Valentines Day

Best State of Play in ages. That Konami segment alone was absolute gold. That new GOW looks... interesting.

Announce the InFamous collection, and my head will be found on Mars.

THANK YOU, SIR. YOUR SERVICE IS AT AN END. 🫡

In a career highlight, I went to Japan to speak to Game Freak veteran Shigeru Ohmori and Koei Tecmo about Pokemon Pokopia. It's going to be absolutely massive. Check out my extensive preview, and Game Freak's first Western interview in years, at the link below.

Romeo is a Dead Man is absolutely class. Please play this.

It’s very odd to live through the “no one knows what Yakuza is” to “everyone loves Yakuza” to “Yakuza hater industrial complex” pipeline.

Ironic, as this was the magazine that referred to Pokémon as a "pestilential Ponzi scheme" in 1999, characterising its creator Satoshi Tajiri as a literal monster "His eyes are bloodshot; dark circles ripple beneath them... His monsters are a child's predelictions." He never gave another interview.

We’ll probably get the Wolverine date here, but outside of that it’s pretty wide open. Exciting!

This is deeply important to me.

We've gone from "I hope 30 people show up" to "Can they fit any extra chairs in" Please grab a ticket if you're keen!
