Okay. Now I understand why Nintendo has a death grip on their IPs. The 80s were not kind.

>Hits CTRL+S. >Immediately goes to file and selects Save as well. >Visually confirms auto-save is enabled. I have trust issues.

I feel like there was a garbage windows patch this week or something? I have three laptops, two docking stations, and two sets of monitors... No combination will get it output display to any monitors. All three of these worked just fine last weekend.

(because ultimately "gamers" and the discourse will always be far more toxic and detrimental to the hobby than anything Sony, Valve, MS, or Nintendo can or ever will do... But y'all persist)

Can't wait for 2029 to get here so we can all talk about the games we're still playing and realize that new games are always going to happen and we will continue buying them.

I bet Mass Effect would make for a really good mini-series on HBO like The Last of Us.

Knocked out the my first temple in Tears of the Kingdom now. Can't stress how much more I'm digging this than BotW. Which is crazy since on the surface they're incredibly similar, and it's nothing to do with the wild building mechanics that is winning me over.

I'm sorry... How much does it cost to ship a single record to me..?!

Really bothers me once I realized that the Game of Thrones theme song just steals the Song of Storms melody from Zelda. Look forward to winter when the throngs of TikTokers claiming the OoT remake stole music from Game of Thrones.

Wow. FF7 rebirth has been out a literal month and they already have a sale from $50 to $30.

I design solutions. Some may call me an artist. Zelda is my canvas

So apparently there's an Evanescence cover of The Chain in Gears 5? Just now crossing paths with this and woof... This is no Gary Jules' Mad World.

Real eager to get to this game after Tears of the Kingdom. Love Mana / Zelda style adventure games.

Tale of a spunky girl. 2001, let's go!

Kids in the future won't know the joy of discovering hidden butts in the most serious of games.

So... Yeah, that gaming news sucks. Change is always going to leave people behind. Reminder though... There are more games available already than you'll finish in your life time. You probably already own more games than you'll finish in your life. Replay your favorites, they're not once and done.

Would like it to not be 85 degrees in my house at 11pm. Michigan should not be this hot and humid.

Old games but good games! I talk Secret of Mana and meeting Santa and how the SNES-CD's cancellation with Sony lead to Chrono Trigger existing. Plus we listen to a bunch of the soundtrack. Ear joy? Ear joy.

Having a bad day? Just give this a listen. Impossible to not smile and bounce to SMW's ending theme. www.youtube.com/watch?v=waKu...

Used to think SNES was one of my favorite systems. A lot of its go to games for me feel so shallow now though. Think it's kicked out of the club.

Success! Solid brown butter chocolate chip cookies.

I live in the suburbs of Detroit. Can't stress how weird this is to just have deer hanging outside of my front door.

All set to try a thing tomorrow in the AM. Wish me luck

@tlatshaw.bsky.social you wanna ask your friend Ravi or Ginger to come down from way up there?

I... Don't have air conditioning. 🫠

No good thoughts come after midnight.

I'm drinking SoBe and listening to Praise You. What year am I in?

Huh. Neat. did the domain thing so my @ is not at bsky.social anymore.

I know people say there's no way for GTA6 to fail, but wouldn't it be funny to see the hubris of Battlefield Earth or John Carter repeat? High price tag, no physical disc, storage space demanding half a system stock drive, and no PC release.

Who's that Pokemon (podcast) ?!? It's BBB! 🦖 We talk a lot about the series through the years and a bunch of cultural touch points, like Bird Jesus and the wild unofficial Russian Pokedex who father made for his daughter that spread through the region as fact Plus great musics!

Work has me in a swank Nashville hotel. How do I steal a whole bathroom?

Odd realization today that my family name dies w/me. My only uncle had no kids, my sister took a name in wedlock so her kids aren't Cooke. Brother and I both had collapsed marriages w/no kids to come from them. I wonder how many names will die off with my gen who lived the same experiences.

So there are people who don't take their work home with them, or feel their life revolves around it? What's that like?

🎉FRIDAY REMIX RECOMMENDATION🎉 Got this fabulous mashup of Va11-Hall-A and Persona 5 which makes our brains go "brrrrr!" Arranged by @sashatb.bsky.social youtu.be/tpnNDVGFxNw?...

Ahead of Revival, nabbed a big comfy new Persona 4 Golden hoodie. Will always love P4G. Gonna really hurt to lose that voice cast too. Pure magic with Yuri, Erin, Amanda, Troy, Laura, and of course Sam as Teddie. Fingers crossed the next gen can find that chemistry.

VA-11 Hall-A... Excited to talk about this neat cyberpunk visual novel where you serve drinks to a bunch of wild characters. It's like Cheers, but dystopian with robots and talking corgis. Plus it's hitting it's tenth anniversary this month, which is definitely a reason to have a drink and listen.

Doin' a thing. Wish me luck.

Would you rather eat a hot salad left in the car for an hour on the dash, or cold tacos that were thrown in the fridge for an hour?

Is there a specific name for the type of pun humor where you misinterpret the speaker for yuks? Like Leslie Nielson in Airplane! - I know his delivery is deadpan, but I wasn't sure if there a term for the disconnected conversation bits.

🎊SNEAK PEEK SUNDAY🎊 Got the pic for this week from a new drinking buddy of ours. Cheers!

Does this mean anything to folks outside of the Midwest? They just ordered it by me at the coney I'm at, and omg it smells divine. I may join them, it's been a while

🎉FRIDAY REMIX RECOMMENDATION🎉 Found this lovely remix on OCR that uses Tarrey Town as a base with 12 other Zelda town tracks woven in. It is lovely stuff! ReMix by Juke @ocremix.org youtu.be/_OWL3CWdZgU?...

3.5 hours from home for work..found a beach outside my hotel.

Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition (Sw) - Campaign Complete #18 #cpGaming2026

Man, will be going back to back with this and FF7 Revelation. My 2027 is looking good.

Remember FourSquare? Social media app where you could check into places and be the king or whatever? Quaint times those tech times were

Okay. Well now.

I'm an easy sell with cyberpunk. I'm in on setting alone here.

Wooooooooo we're back to Fables!
