Also my conspiracy theory is ZA didn’t have a solid release date because it may be planed as a switch 2 launch title (or window) game, and the date is being held until after the switch 2 direct

Pretty solid pokemon presents! Shockingly well paced, and we got to see 2 new things, including ZA, which I think looks great! My wildcard prediction of “nso games” didn’t happen, but that was just a random hope, not an “I expect”

Hmm… I ordered something off eBay listed as “new” but clearly came damaged and opened as well as a few other issues, so “not new” and reported the listing to eBay. They “found nothing wrong with the listing”, so that’s disappointing tbh, now to contact the seller and see if they’ll do anything

Finished this last night, the Gundam 00 Raiser! It was a lot of fun, but also as a Real grade and not a High grade build, it was made of so many tiny parts… also it’s a little back heavy, but it looks so good! “But what about the sticker sheet with all the tiny—“ aaaaaalll done, nothing left to do

Phew, did a bit of adulting and replaced a half broken power outlet we’ve had in our house for a while (the top half worked, the bottom half didn’t). It was both very satisfying and slightly terrifying as my family historically is… bad with raw electricity. But it’s fixed now!

What should arrive after I finish building my Gunpla than my Pyra statue! It’s not the official $200-300 version, but man she still looks great! And with the new shelf I have plenty of room for when the Mythra statue arrives… at some point!

My “relax because my body/head is killing me” activity today was building a Gunpla, specifically the RX-178 Gundam MK 2 (A.E.U.G)! It turned out super great! Another day I’ll build my other one that arrived, but for now this makes me happy!

Alright, got it all set up for the most part, with more than enough room for the gunpla and other figures I have coming or want to get! … I’m so tired and my body aches from everything it took to build and decorate this, but it was worth it!

Fully painted, and drying progressively, so “potentially” I can put stuff on it before the night is over!

New shelf is finished! It’s a bit over 9 feet long, with perky of shelves for books, figures, or whatever else I feel like putting on it! Now I just need to paint it!

Something I’ve been thinking about recently is the impact and lack of acknowledgment of “After the fact” soundtracks get, basicly music in games (or other media) that while in the moment doesn’t stand out and distract you from the experiance, but later when listened to you realize how good it is.

With that I’ve reached the credits of FF14 Heavensward! Overall I enjoyed it more than a Realm Reborn! Good music, great character moments that made me cry, and it certainly was much better paced, though it still suffers from plenty of “walk here, go there, walk back, no go back to the 3rd person—“

Saw the new Captain America, and tbh… I really enjoyed it! Sure it’s not “perfect”, but it was fun to watch, had some real good emotional moments, and had some pretty solid acting with real heart! It was also nice imo that I enjoyed it as a Captain America movie, not a “setting up marvel movie”

Today was a really nice day! Went for a walk, made tacos, had cake with my mom, saw some cool art on Bluesky, and played a bunch of Baltro! I hope you guys also had a nice day, and if you need to hear it, you are awesome, even when you don’t feel like it! You deserve to treat yourself nicely!

Playing balatro and just got my first over 1 million point hand… feels good!

Happy Valentine’s Day! It doesn’t matter if you’re spending it with someone special, or remembering to be kind and love yourself, I hope today is a peaceful day for you!

Random aside; and it’s not a negative, just an observation… remember when the new Indiana jones game came out? Cause I don’t either. I don’t recall hearing anything bad about it, but like… it was all hyped up, and then just gone.

Made my mom some pumpkin muffins! She’s loves whenever I make them, and I love that she loves them! (And I get to enjoy a few🤣)

Digimon Story: Time Stranger releases in 2025.

That was a pretty great state of play, probably one of Sonys best! I will admit personally near the end it felt like it dragged a little, but overall well done! Major highlight for me was a new Digimon game!

Fun event for the future! Near the end of April me and my mom are going to see “The Lion” play at broadway orlando! It’s pretty exciting, ridicule because we’ve heard great things about it!

Went to GameStop today and saw high on a shelf, alone, out of sight, a large DBZ figure for a great price (plus I have coupons) and when I saw it I knew “oh no… that belongs to my friend, he just doesn’t know it yet” so I picked it up for him (A kinda belated bday gift), he’s done the same for me!

I feel bad when I see a video by someone I’ve never seen before, on a topic I’m interested in, and while the creator seems nice… they proceed to spend 10+ min not actually talking about the topic of the video, then when they do, it turns out it’s a bunch of bad sounding stuff out of context…

Apprently psn is back up and running, which is great… except that the only time/day I could really play more Monster Hunter Wilds with my friends was when it was down… so it’s kinda bittersweet.

Even physical games are bricked without PSN access if you need to pair a disc drive. This is why real physical media and disc drive access is vital. Welcome to the future - nobody owns anything, and all art and entertainment is disposable, temporary, and lost forever.

“Who wants these lazy ports on switch” Meanwhile my 7 year old nephew playing Dk returns HD for the first time “I found a puzzle piece, Look what I just did! Did you see me hit the barrel?! “Do you want to borrow the game?” Slowly turns to me, literally vibrating with excitement “Really?!?!?!”

Randomly got that “retro game urge due to @bitnerd.bsky.social ps1 lists and said outloud “I wonder how much a copy of Blaster Master Blasting Again would cost?” I excepted $70-90 because of what the retro market has become. A used copy was $5… so I then asked “how much is it new? I paid $25 sealed!

Eventually managed to play MH wilds with my friends (Capcom make the invite system more intuitive) and besides breaking the game by getting on my mount as a transition happened, it was fun… quirky compared to rise, but not bad. I’ll probably wait for a possible switch 2 port rather than double dip

I “love” modern gaming… A friend asked me to try the MH Wilds Beta, so I booted up my steamdeck and after the download finished I booted up the game like “Alright here we go— aaaaaand it has to compile shaders… again, but in game this time…” It sometimes feels like they don’t want us to play games.

Animal Crossing is actually really interesting performance-wise. You usually hear its success owed entirely to COVID and that sparked a craze for sure But it's also just hit 47.44m, almost 30m more than its debut year Before this New Leaf maxed out at 13m

Just finished fixing a loop on my jeans and remembering how years before he passed my dad was like “you may never want or need to use a sewing machine… but if I teach you how to use one then a part of you will always remember how if you do” It’s the things like that I appreciate the most sometimes…

Emulation is a hilarious and fickle thing. Downloaded a fan hack, test on computer, works. Add to analogue pocket, can’t find it. Delete it and put it back on the pocket… still nothing. Google issue, “maybe it’s a file limit thing?” Look at rom again. Notice it has a / in the name, remove /… works.

Today I did something for me! One of my favorite things I inherited from my dad is an ability to build stuff, either from legit boards of wooden scraps! It’s the reason my room is full of handmade bookshelves (at least 7-9 “shelves”), so I took some leftover wood and made a small box, just because!

How many of us feel lately

Not to get to into it, as I’m trying to stay as positive as I can, but seeing the stuff that’s been happening over the last few days, which are super horrible, I’m left with a big sense of “oh look, exactly what we said would happen is happening…” we aren’t happy to be right, but we called it.

We went to the Lowe’s today to get a new refrigerator, our old freezer door won’t always close properly due to age and old magnets, expecting a whole process of looking and comparing, trying not to overspend… we asked a lady working that section “… do you have a recommendation?”

Finally managed to get to the actual start of heavensward in ff14! A realm reborn is a good, if long and tedious tutorial for how ff14 works, but that post realm reborn content felt like it really dragged on… also the fact so many seem to “believe” the big event at the start of heavensward annoys me

Marvel rivals is hilarious sometimes! I’m trying to complete the season mission of 100 assists, a lot but not undoable… my first match as invisible woman I got mvp, the most kills on my team, a kill combo, aaaaaand like 2 assist... I was both very impressed, and very annoyed🤣
