I don’t usually give myself much credit when I do PA announcing, but I’m pretty good at what I do. But not tonight. Wow, am I awful and not my best. I can admit that. Here’s hoping things improve. 😂

Maude or Gertrude can’t hurt me here.

The best/worst thing is trying to find a new game to play. When I was younger, I wished I had ALL the video games. Sometimes, having so many games at your disposal is such a self-inflicted curse.

Here. youtu.be/6gHNwY4n2Vg?...

Anyone wanna watch a new Wally video today? (It's okay if you don't. I was just asking. 😄)

Gooooooood morning! Happy Friday! That's all I got! 😁

Anyone play the PS2 Sly Cooper games on the PS5?

SHHHHHH! Working on something this afternoon.

😄

I have tried to voice something three different times today and I just can't record something I'm happy with. Time to take a break lol

EEEEEEEEEEE! youtu.be/ZmEx7wQI6RY?...

Mega F*****G Beardo is the best.

I would love, LOVE, to try my hand at streaming again...even just a couple of times here or there. It's been FOUR years, since the last time I did. Crazy snakes. Would love to hop back in for a night or two with some of you fine folks.

Good morning! A 12 hour workday yesterday was far from ideal. Not really leaping out the door today. Hope you have a great one!

Good morning, friends! Happy Tuesday! I still haven't started my next game experience yet. I always find that after I finish something, I tend to wait a little bit before diving into something else. Not sure why, but it happens that way. 😄 Maybe "Kirby Star Allies"? I think I bought that once...

Good morning, friends! Hope your work week is off to a great start! Seize the carp, and all that!

Had a BLAST playing NES games tonight. I need to do that more often. Just an open evening and retro gaming. Just like the old days. 🥲

For reasons.

Whew! False alarm. Your boy’s an idiot.

Did…did I just fry my graphics card by trying to clean my PC? I can *hear* it load into windows but I get no picture out of not DisplayPort, not HDMI. This can’t be good. 🤪

Saturday is here and the Wally calendar is WIDE OPEN. No kid sports, no commitments…just…nothing. This is rarified air to say the least. And I’m going to enjoy the shit out of it. Have a wonderful Saturday, friends! Any plans?

'Nuff said.

Stayed up too late playing video games (yay!) but saw the end credits on Fire Emblem: Sacred Stones. Great game! Someone once told me the original GBA games were janky but nah. These games are still great. On the struggle bus a little this morning. Coffee all dayyyyy! Happy Friday!

BoxBoy! is a good time and you should play it. That's all.

Got through another couple of chapters and made more progress! This has been a slower play through than I would've liked, but I'm very much enjoying the game. Only have a few chapters left, so...excited to see where this goes and if I'm prepared for the final battle. Unlike the first one...

Ecco? Sure, Sega. That's cool and all. But what about some new SHINING FORCE? Doesn't that sound like a neat-o idea?? Do it. Do it right now.

Haven't played much in the last couple of days, but looking to jump back into some more Fire Emblem tonight. I've been in this wild loop with the game where I get so close to finishing a battle, make a dumb decision that costs me a character, and then I reset so I don't lose them. This game, man...

Cheerios and Frosted Flakes IN THE SAME BOWL this morning. I, too, like to live dangerously. Good morning!

I used to host a retro gaming podcast over a decade ago. It ran for three years and 146 episodes. Due to demand (?) I'm slowly uploading it to Spotify. 1MoreCastle presents the 1 More Podcastle...podcast. Episode 1 - "Lawnmowers" open.spotify.com/episode/5Asn...

This image was from a mail call in February of 2016. This was a good day, Wally.

Wow. Been a long time since I listened to this! www.youtube.com/watch?v=WTL4...

1MorePodcastle is (kind of, but not really) BACK, BAY-BEE!! Subscribe now, and never miss an (old) episode! 😄 This awesome. Thanks for doing this!

Get me the files, and I'll upload the entirety of the 1MorePodcastle to Spotify.

👀

Going with the tall boy this morning. Have a great day, friends!

🥲

Me: *clicks on video to watch over lunch about the PS1.* *2-seconds in, it's clear that it's made by AI* *immediately closes the window*

This week's schedule is up. I had to backload the streams this week and there are a few odd start times. Hope you can join me as we try to make more progress in Dynamite Headdy this coming weekend!

The latest episode of the Wally Wallcast! We're taking a look back at how 2025 shaped up! Feel free to listen, if you're so inclined! open.spotify.com/episode/1pqK...

Going to go "old school" social media today and start a #FollowFriday thread, like we used to. Sure there are starter packs and 'skircles' or whatever they're called, but...going with the throwback today. These #FF peeps are folks that I recommend you should follow, for a variety of reasons.

Having a very comforting morning today. Reflection, smiles, joy…it’s been an enjoyable morning off so far. 🙂

A blurry, early shelfie from my 2013 collecting days. Simpler times, I tells ya. Good morning! Happy Friday!

Back when social media was silly and fun. 😄

Good morning, friends! (That's all I got so far.) 😁

Experience a NEW Phantasy...

There's no less than 40 years of video game libraries just waiting to be played. You don't have to play anything new if you don't like the direction the industry is heading. There's definitely plenty of titles to play from years gone by. You don't need to play new games, if it bugs you that much.

New video up! Kind of a re-post as this combines my old parts 1 & 2 of the Contra retrospectives from 2024, but there is a new section added to the end with some extra stuff since uncovered. Enjoy! Sharing around is much appreciated :) youtu.be/Ap10X-REdlk

Happy Monday, kids! Hope you have a great start to the week, especially those of you who have been off for the last couple. I'm still tackling Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones on the GBA and added a couple of more games to the backlog over the weekend to enjoy on the side. What you playing?

Not enough of you've ever watched The Brave Little Toaster, and it shows.
