Another new buddy for the gaming desk -- who is also wondering what we'll be seeing during tomorrow's Pokémon Presents!

You know what would make the Pokemon Presents perfect for me, personally? They go the HD 2D remake route for their next game. I'll always say this is the gold (heh) standard for how a Pokemon game should look. Improving on this formula would be incredible.

Can't say I didn't expect this possibility, but I'm shelving Elden Ring for the foreseeable future. The Alberich NPC invader debacle kinda broke me & I suddenly realized that, 10s of hours in, I was starting to feel more stressed & overwhelmed than enjoying things. It's mostly a "me" thing. (1/4)

He just like me fr

Issues of Nintendo Power are one of the few things left in retro gaming where the prices still seem very affordable. It seems like most issues can be had for $20 and under, and there's only a few heavy hitters that are expensive. My goal is to one day collect them all, if they stay cheap enough. 🎮🕹️

I miss when video games came in cereal boxes

Defeated my first Elden Ring bosses! Managed to beat the two Demi-Human Chiefs & the Beastman of Farum Azula. Fairly certain these are super early-game bosses meant to be easy ones, but hey, especially for a Soulsborne noob like myself -- a win is a win! lol. #EldenRing #FirstPlaythrough

For fans of Donkey Kong Country-styled games, this is a lovely one. Basically playing as Dixie Kong who uses masks to transform into different forms (akin to Animal Buddies a la DKC). On its own merits, it's well designed and fun!

Most recent additions to the game collection! I've only played the three Sega Genesis games out of these five, I haven't ever played this SpongeBob or Robotech game. Any memories with these? #retrogames

If mall culture truly is on its way out, that's a real bummer. There's nothing quite like just walking through one & doing all the things.

Sister came over to hang out with my wife & I after birthday stuff got snowed out last week. Chilled, ate pizza, watched a Phineas & Ferb movie & tomorrow maybe gonna play some WarioWare multiplayer together. Not a bad weekend. Hope all y'all are doing well too 👍

Anyway, it's Random Game Saturday Here's a JP copy of GBA Donkey Kong Country I got at Book-Off for $10, and a reminder that DKC is called "Super Donkey Kong" in Japan

Collection update: I have officially acquired Pokemon FireRed and LeafGreen! With that, my set of cartridges from Generations 1-3 is complete. Look how colorful they are! I've played a lot of Gens 1 and 2 recently, but it's been a while since I've looked at 3. #Pokemon #Gaming #RetroGaming

Look what came in the mail today. 🎮🕹️
