“young people form opinions based on other, more popular people’s opinions” has been true for at least a century, it’s not evidence of societal rot yes it’s more fun and fulfilling to judge art yourself but also, this is not a new thing and not inherently bad either

got to watch “3-5 business days” change in real time to “6-10 business days” and “delays expected due to high volume” as i spammed the payment screen for the steam controller (which is what everyone just says to do). got one but i assume i’ll get it in december or whatever

i refuse to engage with the 2000s nostalgia bait post going around right now because it’s so blatant but i love “we were jailbreaking iphones“ as a nostalgia thing as if consumer grade hacking guides haven’t gotten exponentially more popular over the past 20 years

My dad was telling me about this confusing trailer he saw in the theater yesterday, that characters were made up of random parts, that it "wasn't anime but in 3D," and that one of them reminded him of the spork from Toy Story 4 I realized he was trying to explain to me The Amazing Digital Circus

the crystal exarch

i don’t use the term hetslop lightly, but

the lack of folders is…questionable but forcing sort by recently played to the home menu on switch/2 is genuinely awful. it becomes so easy to lose track of games you want to occasionally check in on maybe it’s an adhd thing but the “out of sight, out of mind”-ness of switch games is so bad to me

Damn I’m 23 now I guess… happy birthday me….. #Splatoon3 #SplatoonArt #OC #FriendArt #Nintendo #TheCoolerJessArt

i’ve been on a zelda kick (see: massive hyperfixation) lately but i continue to become immediately exhausted by zelda discourse im basically any form. i feel like i enjoy these games very differently than most zelda fans do

It's not smoke. It's like, some other shit.

babies 2???

they really named a game “various daylife“

With the addition of a map icon and ship model, the Linkle Phantom Hourglass mod is feature complete! I'd still like to replace the picture book intro at some point, but I'm not a good enough artist for that. For the foreseeable future though, enjoy! gamebanana.com/wips/99071

i guess i shouldn't be surprised how hard it is to live in an attention economy when you have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder

Before this starts going viral here I want to point out that the "confirmation" is an AI chatbot, and when other people asked it, it gave completely contradictory information saying that it was for the offline game share feature (allowing you to play a game shared game for 30 days without owning it)

i like the newer episodes of down the rabbit hole but it’s hard to not feel icky watching it when older videos absolutely contributed to transphobia and polyphobia in a gamergate-era internet. feels like knudsen is like, a super centrist guy who doesn’t really understand the harm he added to

she did the thing

she did the thing

I choose to believe this is how most 90s arcade race tracks were initially conceived #gaming #retrogaming #arcade

hi raiders #splatoonart

I'm a broken record at this point but it really is depressing how much video game coverage is almost literally just reading out the most basic corporate press releases and going "huh... maybe Microsoft cares about GAMERS now?!" Like just pure, completely uncritical marketing done for free. Wild

me when my mii tries to romance the wrong person on my tomodachi island

Shadow's handheld device in IDW's Sonic the Hedgehog #80 is inspired by the McDonald's LCD game, Shadow Grinder.

I've discovered that the kind of person who loves to post the "I want shorter games that look worse made by devs who are paid more to work less" meme tends to get really upset when you respond "oh, like mainline Pokémon?"

was laughing extremely hard at the comments under this video with a friend yesterday. a bunch of early 20-somethings being like “i guess i’m an adult now…..i’ll never be happy again…..”

when I was reimagining Majora's Mask characters so they'd be unique from the OoT models. Still really proud of these - it's my fave Zelda game, the story and art style were very influential.

huey dewey and the news

yesterday i was looking at 3DS variants with some friends and like, oh my god so many of these are so good. why did i have to be a boring child who liked fully black consoles. now i am a whimsical woman dissatisfied by all these black electronics

you couldn’t make me pay $70 for a yoshi game but i do like this one’s direction

if you can, please help out my friend @emeraldfox.bsky.social, he’s been dealing with some absolutely awful landlord/hotel situations lately and any support would go a long way for them.

one of my favorite pieces of trans art is 'you make me sick', described in the second image. i saw this post in 2015 and it has always stayed in the back of my mind. i guess it may seem a little outlandish but i have always found it to be poignant

GOOD POST

So @why.bsky.team is no longer mass blocking via this list, probably as a kneejerk reaction to realizing he doesn't know how his own (likely vibe-coded) feeds work. He is instead spending his morning manually blocking trans people and furries

pets in tomodachi life are like assist trophies in smash, like no i’m not making a full mii for autism creature but they’re here for fun

my package is coming a day early 🎉🎉🎉

Man, my Bsky feed today is full of a lot of mealy-mouthed walk backs. No, fam, the enemy of my enemy is NOT my friend and I'm not gonna ignore decades of cruelty and greed because I like who he's attacking. So, no, I will NOT be siding with Coyote against ACME and will be taking no further questions

Miyamoto complaining about movie critics is funny. Its funny that the man himself has the same brainrot the fans do where they just don't understand the concept of critics they cannot bully into submission with fandom inertia lol

IT'S CALLED AN "INVISIBLE DISABILITY" BECAUSE WHEN WE MANAGE OUR DISABILITIES WELL, PEOPLE ACT LIKE WE DON'T HAVE THEM

they were under so much crunch that they didn’t have time to make the game bad

have we considered that majora’s mask might be the best video game
