Ironic, as this was the magazine that referred to Pokémon as a "pestilential Ponzi scheme" in 1999, characterising its creator Satoshi Tajiri as a literal monster "His eyes are bloodshot; dark circles ripple beneath them... His monsters are a child's predelictions." He never gave another interview.

Earlier this month I sat down and listed my games backlog using Playlist (www.ign.com/playlist/ONM...) and Backloggd (backloggd.com/u/danielswit...), currently sitting at 600+ games. Attempting to get through it this year, trying not to buy any more games outside first party titles.

A staple in my household.

Mission complete for January critters. This one only took 30 minutes to find. #AnimalCrossing #NintendoSwitch2

Excellent use of free will.

Spent about an hour finding this last night. This is the year I complete the damn museum. #AnimalCrossingNewHorizons

Perfection. 10 / 10. No notes. #AnimalCrossingNewHorizons #NintendoSwitch2

The Phil Collins documentary on BBC Sounds is terrific, give it a listen and realise you love everything he touched.

this is the only way to appreciate someone playing a bitchin guitar solo

(Can’t believe I just had to screenshot a picture I made over ten years ago, that’s madness).

Also the water in this mini-game…

Some incredible things happening in #51WorldwideGames lately. #NintendoSwitch2

(Forgot I had Bluesky, not that I forgot I had a dog fyi)

Forgot I had this whoops. Here is my very lazy dog.

Enjoying #SplitFiction, central conceit stays fresh and enjoying all the different references to other games and media.

CPU feels trickier this time around, struggling to get three stars on one last cup. Still haven’t figured out how to unlock Mirror Mode. Also taking this as a #BreakingBad reference. #NintendoSwitch2 #MarioKartWorld

Sorry but this was an unreal throw by me, right on the last turn. #MarioKartWorld

Text messaging reading “Your Argos parcel has been delivered today and received by Switzerland”

A lot of hard work today attempting international diplomacy when my #NintendoSwitch2 got delivered to a foreign state.

#NintendoSwitch2 day. Much like everyone else, #MarioKartWorld was up first; what a delightful bit of chaos. And then a return to #Hitman, looking forward to going through it all again and attempting all the challenges.
