Gotta say, Pauline's new Voice Actress has a really beautiful voice. Girl can SING! Probably one of my favourite vocalists for Nintendo games in recent years.

*SPOILERS FOR DONKEY KONG BANANZA AND THE RECENT DIRECT FOR IT!* So, yeah, young Pauline confirmed. One problem, though. They still didn't address where this fits in to the Donkey Kong & Mario timelines. Like what, are there now several generations of Donkey Kongs? I'm so confused.

So how long do we feel we have until someone makes GameCube Joycons for the Switch 2? Surely that can still happen, right?

Everyone's talking about the Nintendo Classics GameCube controller, and comparing it to the Wavebird or the OG wired GameCube controllers, but people seem to forget that there were wireless Switch 1 controllers modelled after the GameCube controller, too. They required batteries, but they exist.

Anyone noticed any decent Deltarune Chapter 3 and 4 midis out there? I think I've more or less hit the upward limit of what I can cover that appeals to me.

The Gex Trilogy is out today, I think, but I don't have enough money for it. Not if I want to maintain a certain goal/range, anyway. Games really are getting super expensive, aren't they?

Nintendo Direct this week! Yay! .....But it's strictly for Donkey Kong Bananza. Oh. But who knows, it may still be a fun Direct!

I heard claims that Mortal Kombat 1 is much improved on Switch 2, and I'm looking forward to trying that out.

Downloaded the new versions of Classic Doom 1 & 2 onto my Switch 2. I want to see how they run, and classic doom just sounds fun to me. Haven't redownloaded the Quake ports yet.

I told some of my coworkers I'd be working on my birthday, as it's next Sunday, if I recall correctly. And one of them said to me: "Ah, you should've asked to have it off!" or something like that. But I don't mind working on my birthday; many of my RL friends are at my job, and some get me cupcakes

I haven't encountered any noticable issues with the Gamecube app on Switch 2, but that doesn't mean they're not there, it just means I haven't noticed them. I've yet to test out an online session in the app, though.

Well, for what it's worth, today has been much better, with a small hiccup I'd rather not discuss, at least not yet.

"I thought you were saying earlier that things have generally being going well?" They were. But for some reason my Mom SERIOUSLY BADLY needed my help today. And it just felt like a lot to me. It felt to me as if every 2 - 3 hours, she needed me for something.

"Look on the bright side! After Father's Day is your birthday!" True, but the gripe still feels present in my mind; things for others before things for me. But perhaps I should try my best to move past this. Just going to be rough going to bed irritated and annoyed.

Slightly unrelated, but sometimes to me it feels I have to do many things for others before I can get things done for myself, at least in real life.

Had kind of a frustrating day today. My mother seemed to need me for a large amount of things today, and the frequency of it all got to me so much that eventually I got a bit frustrated. I later apologized and asked that in the future she preface it with "In five minutes, could I get you to."

/MAYBE/ I could contribute to one of those running spreadsheets. I dunno, we'll see. Currently re-downloading some old Konami compilations as I may want to play those later. Maybe I'll let others know how those perform, too. Maybe. Also planning to test out Sonic Origins at some point.

Does it matter how Sega Genesis Classics performs on Switch 2 if only certain people can access it? Am I going to have to be the guy to let everyone know?

Found a midi of "The Third Sanctuary" from Deltarune Chapter 3 on Online Sequencer, and while the midi sounded good..... The instruments were almost entirely incorrectly labeled. I figured it'd be a headache and a half trying to figure out which one would actually go where, so I'm shelving it.

Getting a lot of tarot readings talking about good things coming, or how to get stuff that's on my mind. Thing is, I don't really feel I'm struggling with any of that? Life seems fairly good at the moment.

GameStop's future "not in games"? WAT?! It's literally there in your store/brand's freaking name! The fuck are you talking about?!

And for the record, if you're a huge fan of h-content, have fun running Koikatsu or something of the like on a Switch 2. OH WAIT
