Considering all the potential Switch 2 OLED discourse going around, I think I should be clear about my position as being way more excited about a potential Switch 2 Lite instead

Now that DREDGE is out for mobile, I will be even more annoying in pushing people to play it. Perfect game for mobile.

Got like 6 nieces and nephews over at my house all wanting to play games. Would be a great time for Target to accidentally send the Switch 2 early!

Nintendo having required one GBA PER PLAYER in Four Swords Adventures was insane. I love the experience but it’s a wonder how they sold even a single unit!

Honestly, same? I’m waiting for the excitement to hit. Maybe it will. Either I’m getting old or they haven’t hit the right marketing mix at Nintendo, but the hype levels are fairly low right now.

Pleasantly surprised at how functional and smooth the new Nintendo Switch App is!

Have any of these pubs considered funding games to completion and release? Wild idea.

I love Giant Bomb. Couldn’t have imagined being involved in shaping a new era, relaunching it, and having a part in its history. I couldn’t be happier with this outcome: my friends own my favorite website. I know they’ll do right by it and the community. Giant Bomb forever.

this is maybe trite at this point but it is in your interest to find ways to create things. basically everyone wants you to be consuming nonstop. making stuff, from cooking to photography or whatever, can help you feel more in control. doesn’t even have to be something you share with other people

Found this at the local library - had no idea that there was a Wii remake of Klonoa, thought 2022 was the first time that had been attempted. It holds up rather well! Having no nostalgia for the original, I really like the chunky 3D and colorful environments. #retrogaming

My landlord spent like 6 hours today “repairing” my decaying, disintegrating back gate, and I just used it for the first time. I guarantee I’d have an easier time trying to write a novel with a bar of soap than I did sliding open this gate.

The #Switch2 menu should have been designed by whoever did these, and no I'm not kidding So basically, put Ko Takeuchi in charge

Pretty successful! Going to do a bunch for my other controllers so they aren’t all sliding around in there.

IDK why the reviews for Wrath of Cortex back in the day were so middling/negative. Traveller’s Tales honestly did a bang-up job following up on Warped, even if it’s more of the same. This is one of those “solid 7” games. And this is ostensibly the worst version (PS2)! #retrogaming #crashbandicoot
