Mockup boxart! I figure it's time to start manifesting announcements we'd like to see for the Super Mario 40th anniversary that's coming up very soon. What game(s) are you hoping Nintendo reveals to mark the milestone?

I'm excited that the Splatoon brand has now reached the point where it's allowed to branch out and do other things. Hopefully more spin-offs will follow! (A turn-based tactical take on Turf War would be so cool.)

Switch 1 games are so much nicer on Switch 2! Even running on our old non-4K TV in our family room, they're all just smoother and more detailed. Pretty wild to have all the old jank banished in an instant.

Why am I awake before dawn, watching local broadcast CBS, waiting for the reveal of the Survivor 50 cast (that has seemingly already been fully spoiled)? Early morning commercials! Haven't seen you in a while.

Koei Tecmo confirms that you can use a USB mouse to play mouse-controlled Switch 2 games, rather than being forced to use the Joy-Con 2 on its side. You can also switch back and forth between them instantly. youtu.be/CstlgmcDgy0?...

Oh hey, I'm proud to contribute to worker-owned and independent new site Skybox! This is my essay about having a stroke, losing the ability to write or walk or play video games, and digging myself out of that depressive hole using video games. It's maybe the most vulnerable writing I've ever done.
