Right? Being an American that visits Tokyo every few years, I immediately saw it :)

I don’t understand how they haven’t pivoted yet. I have been a JRPG player since the 90s and I found both Setsuna and Lost Sphear to have excellent ideas and qualities but they always lacked the certain substance to make them better or memorable.

FunkoStop.

In 2009 before my departure from GameStop Store Management (thankfully onto something much more future proof) we had a Q/A session with the VP at the time on our yearly managers summit. My burning question boiled down to “What does GameStop plan to do when games become more accessible through streaming or download on…

I nabbed the previous gen Oasis after owning a Paperwhite for a few years and I couldn’t be happier. It feels more like a book in hand and I can get into more comfortable and natural holding positions.

Kenny Omega’s story and NJPW got me back into watching wrestling a few years ago. I hope he and AEW make wrestling watchable in the states.

I was already reading similar comments from Japanese players. It think more than anything I have been spoiled by the Switch screen to ever look at a 3DS display again....

My first visit to a Ramen shop in Japan I was told slurping lets the staff and chef know you enjoy.

Exactly, really undermines the Battle Royale idea. 

Chrono Trigger - The entire first sequence in Zeal. The music, the (back then) intense GFX. The game finally 

Exactly. There seems to be this notion that if they are small and fit in your ear they are “airpod-like” or “airpod killers”. They are not. I am not an apple fanboy, but the airpods are the only fully wireless, good sounding earbuds I have found that don’t need to get stuff into your ear canal - that is the deal…

Sounds like 2 highly dangerous jobs in one actually :)

AMEN!

I really enjoyed Seveneves and found a lot of it highly believable if we had a little more of our collective shit about us when it came to space travel. Not sure what everyone else expected from the book, it wasn’t sci-fi with laser swords and massive ship battles - it was a great narrative on the human condition in…

This is how I was after 25 hours in and 2 weeks off: It was a beautiful, big, empty world sim with stuff thrown in here and there string together a game. Even the action sequences felt forced and atypical and predictable. It lacked the magic that made Red Dead Redemption 1 special. Won't bother playing the other 25%…

The Simpsons were “meta” before that term existed en mass. I think people like to hate the Simpsons for that exact reason. For someone that has casually watched the last 10 seasons (because the previous 20 are committed to memory) the show still does what it has always done. Pop culture and trending social topics have…

Where did Netflix find this trailer? 

I was standing at the precipice and decided to turn around the last time I was there. It didn’t look all that fun since I never was really most of the Jump IP they were featuring. Kinda wish I went but I think the rest of my time was well spent in Ikebukuro. Like take pictures of the spots from Durarara!!!

I have been in the United States for the move hour forward, then a few weeks later I was in Germany when they moved an hour forward, for two years in a row. Since I have never been in Germany for the time they move the clocks BACK I believe I have lost 2 hours of my life I need to get back....
