I miss the ambient noise and the sounds of Miis 'talking'.

"If Super Mario 64 is a makunouchi bento, then Banjo-Kazooie is a deluxe makunouchi bento."

Shigeru Miyamoto was very impressed by Banjo-Kazooie during its development, even expressing that it surpasses Super Mario 64 in some ways: "If Super Mario 64 is a makunouchi bento, then Banjo-Kazooie is a deluxe makunouchi bento."

I feel like Pilot's roster has a better variety. The main villain (in a new costume!), a reformed kremling, one new Kong, the Big Three (DK, Diddy and Dixie), and the OG Kong (Cranky)

You just know there's a scene in the movie where Mario will have to 'sacrifice' Yoshi. It'll be a pivotal moment, with dramatic music and everything (but Yoshi's alright in the end). There's no way they won't do it. They managed a "Princess is in Another Castle" joke last movie, they can do this too

Ryoko McTenchi Muyo wickedly sneaking around the void, doing wicked Ryoko McTenchi Muyo things. she has, like, no nose, and many of the highlights don't make any sense, but the trouser-boots are a beautiful vibrant red and I've made zero bad decisions on them at least. no oddly distracting zig-zaggy coloring anywhere on those, nope. actually... scratch that, the art is entirely perfect, this is a perfect piece of art. you are impressed by me and I am in awe of myself. and... and now... now I'm scared. scared I will never draw a perfect piece again. oh god. what have I done to myself??? what will I... what will I do??? I... I

I’ve wanted younger people to realize older games are just as good and often times better than modern games

but I didn’t want β€œAI is sucking the soul out of games and making everything too expensive” to be the reason

The Wii is 20 years old this year. The Wii is now considered 'classic' or 'retro'. The Wii is now as old as the NES was when the Wii was new. The Wii, 20 years separated from the NES, ushering in the cultural phenomenon of 'Retro Nostalgia' and Motion Controls, is 20 years old. 20. This year.

A nice little Christmas card commission for my friends at Rare to round out the end of the year. There will be no questions taken as to why 'xxx' isn't represented.

It rocks to tell people their shit rocks. Every single person who has ever been nice about my work has been appreciated for doing so. I take time to say I love stuff and it’s always the right time to remind somebody you value their work! You don’t need to get into detail either. Just say it rocks

I definitely would have waited to buy a Switch 2 if Bananza hadn't been announced when it was.
