Oh man, I was also about to buy the BinBoks when they sold out. Thanks to Wulff Den for talking them up on his channel, but potentially also leading to a run on their inventory.

I know someone will end up doing something good with this, but yeah, all of those examples were just so much worse than the originals.

There were so many times I very nearly bought it over the past year. 

Finishing up Paper Mario: the Origami King and really looking forward to seeing what’s coming up since I’ve loved almost every minute. Then I’m weirdly excited about going back to get 100% of collectibles and hidden Toads and such.

They must’ve played Captain Toad: Dragon Ball Tracker by mistake.

Man, apparently I’m playing this game at a really relaxed pace since I’m at 32 hours and not halfway through.

On August 19 they confirmed a second season of Warrior Nun. I Am Not OK With This was originally confirmed for a second season and only got cancelled after Covid related scheduling conflicts pushed back the filming. I imagine some of it could have to do with the actor playing her younger brother being at the age where… Read more

I enjoyed Warrior Nun but it left off at what felt distinctly like the middle of a season and less like a cliffhanger. It’ll be interesting to see where it goes next.

I use mine so heavily that I just took this opportunity to buy a second one just in case mine ever breaks.

That price drop makes me glad I only paid $50 for it instead of the full $60 they were asking. It’s a really fun game at either price point though!

I enjoyed reading this far more than I should have. Stupid people finally stopped making me sad, I suppose.

“The Xbox Series X sitting atop the much larger Xbox One S.”
With a picture of the Series S. The fact that this is still being confused in final reviews confirms to me that this is just a bad naming scheme. I know that you know the difference, but since it was that easy to skim over it in all your final edits shows me… Read more

How long before the controller starts making noise at every haptic feedback after vibrating constantly for days and weeks of playtime? My Switch pro controller and Joycons all make so much noise now that I can’t handle playing some games at low volume.

My brother and I have gone back and forth on which of those bar arrangements we’d prefer to see, since for weeks we’ve wanted this exact thing added to this stage.

That gives me time to play the first one, so good for me I guess? I already own it on Switch but haven’t found the time to play it.

If you haven’t played the game then you don’t really have any understanding of how it works. You can think or guess whatever you want though. The Verge had an article highlighting players who have played for months without a single win, and I can sit down and get several in a few hours. There are actual platforming… Read more

One is comfortingly noodle soft and your example is stressful, sharp and geometric. Also interesting that today’s post uses basically no gradients compared to almost all gradient colors in the monkey picture. It’s nice to see an artist with a broad range like that.

I really wanted to love Spinch, but I felt like they kind of blew it a bit with some of those water levels. To me they ended up being more frustrating than fun, and didn’t seem in the speed-running-friendly spirit of the rest of the game. There were a few weird balancing issues where there’d be one checkpoint 10% of… Read more

Wait what?! I didn’t realize it was gone but wondered why there hadn’t been any new videos for a few weeks. That’s one of my favorite recurring video series on YouTube so I’m really glad Chris Person is keeping it going. 

I’ve heard it’s bad netcode, but I’m not the right kind of nerd to explain that properly so I’ll just say “server lag.”
