"In those days, Miyamoto would come to us at 11 PM, after he finished all of his board-member work, and say, "It's Mario time." At that point, we'd start a planning meeting that would run until 2 AM. At that point, Miyamoto would go home, leaving us with the words, "You should return home soon, for your health." Over the next two or three hours, we'd write the game design documents and summarize the instructions for our artists and programmers. 

It was the craziest crunch time that I've ever experienced in my development career. But if the God of Games was working so much, could we give up? Miyamoto had incredible stamina."

-Motoi Okamoto, Script and Mini-Game Director for Super Mario 64 DS, in a 2017 interview with Chris Kohler from Gamasutra

According to Motoi Okamoto, Mini-Game Director for Super Mario 64 DS, Shigeru Miyamoto would start midnight crunch sessions for the game's development by walking into the office and announcing "It's Mario time."

Really digging PAC-MAN Forever, the amount of care that went into this is staggering; the team that made this deserve the world. It genuinely scratches the itch I've been feeling since completing CEDX many years back, I'd love to see something like this officially going forward, ms pac included lol.

Back in 2020, there was a short lived collab between Hatsune Miku & PAC-MAN to commemorate the cheese wheel's 40th, which only amounted to a figure and this acrylic stand. I don't believe the artwork for this collab was ever preserved, so I thought to try and remedy that.

There really is a balance; I try to keep my account centered on a cheese wheel mostly lol, but there are times where I feel like I need to reach out or express something genuinely. Especially mutuals, I genuinely wouldnโ€™t have the motivation or heart to engage here if it wasnโ€™t for seeing yโ€™all.

I can personally empathize with what youโ€™re going through; it can feel incredibly hopeless at times. Iโ€™m sorry youโ€™re going through this, please know youโ€™re not alone. Iโ€™m always really happy to see and hear what you share, and I really hope things get better for you.
