She's so nice and soft and fluffy~❤️

But also like, exclusives are only part of the answer, my big reason for buying a games' system is getting an experience I can't easily get elsewhere, hence my strong appreciation of the Wii and 3DS, and also why I have a PS Vita.

Screenshot of YouTube poll by Spawn Wave: "Why do you primarily buy a gaming system?" 1 - The controller layout/features: 4% 2 - Exclusive games (My vote): 79% 3 - Achievements/Trophies: 1% 4 - Ecosystem (Digital purchases, Friends are there, etc.): 15% Top comment: "Quote, Exclusive games don't sell Consoles, unquote, Yes they do lol"

Y'see, this is what really tanks my interest on a PS3...
Every time I see a game I really want on that system, I look it up, and I find it on sale on Steam for like, $2...

I found it! The ONE Proper 2D Fighter for the DS!
Motion inputs, air-dashes, juggle combos, super moves and all!
It's Windy x Windam! So... How is it? ...'Meh xD

(Also, yes, I know about the Bleach games I just... Can't be made to care about Bleach xD)

Denshattack was also good btw, but I wanna change the controls... I wanna jump with A, drift with B, change lanes with L and R and do tricks with the D-Pad...

Tried out some Next Fest demos and, In Falsus here is FAR AND AWAY My Highlight! Much like Mash:VP Re-Vision, it's a rhythm game that feels right outta the arcade! I LOVE IT~❤️

You play it with 6 keys and by moving the mouse left and right, but I played with my pocket voltex, and it was PERFECT!

Honestly, the more I hear from straight women, the more I'm glad not to be one of them... It is TRULY a blessing...

Wow look at this! Really helps prove my point about how the Wii is better than the Cube in every way...

Photo of my TV showing Ganondorf with a sword stuck in his forehead: "Ughnn... Heh heh... The wind.... It is blowing..." he says in the dialogue box. It's The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, running on the Wii, as its sensor bar stands proudly and lit atop the telly.

Photo of my TV showing the staff credits of Zelda Wind Waker. You can see a lit Wii sensor bar on top of it.

Photo of my TV showing: "The End -The Legend of Zelda" in front of a bright blue sky and wih the triforce spliting apart on top of it. Yes, the Wii Sensor Bar is still up there, and it's still lit.

There we go, I finally beat Zelda Wind Waker!
I did it with the Linkle mod on my Wii, it was... Good.
It did turn out to be a good game in the end, despite all the padding, and how it feels like they ran out of time while making it... There's more good here than not.

It's the Pokopia logo, altered to say "Pokopia Renzoku Satsujin Jiken". A play on the original Japanese title for The Portopia Serial Murder Case

We may have a future after all...

2014 and 2016 were gap years where I didn't watch much (if any) anime at all, and before 2011 I hadn't found my niche yet, and didn't feel particularly strongly about all that much...

Ironically though, 2020~2022 are pretty fuzzy for me... I need some time to think over those...

I was talking to my gf, and turns out I still remember my favourite anime I watched each year going back pretty far...
2019 - PriPara
2018 - Love Live School Idol Project
2017 - Princess Tutu
2015 - Shirobako
2013 - Kiniro Mosaic
2012 - K-ON
2011 - Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu

After several trips to the phone repair shop, I finally have a screen that works properly again!
The 1 Good Queen is back xD

The interaction I never knew I wanted to see...

Funny thing right, I was able to get A LOT further in this version without a translation than I was in Working Designs' English version. Make of that what you will...

Actually, nevermind, that was a quest for a heart piece, the other character appears when you finished the dungeon that requires the previous character, so turns out you have to do the dungeons in order... What a tease...

"...But turns out you still can't enter the dungeons, first you need to find these two characters and bring them here, but to find this one you need to do this quest within 20 minutes, the other one is just sitting there though..."

Y'know what I was saying about padding?

Wind Waker: "Ok, here's the next two dungeons, but you can't access them, first you need to have these items, but to get them you need to have this other ability, but to get that first you need to do this thing you've been hinted at ages ago, but only now have the item you need to do it..."

YouTube video by noclip_2 nobody is talking about DDR's comeback across America - Frank Howley

It's not just America, and not just DDR, like, srsly, go to your local arcades, see what they got! My GF's city recently got AMAZING for arcades, and even my so-so local arcades have Taiko now!

Screenshot of Cue! "Anime is so cool!" says Kujou Yuzuha while holding a spoon of dessert.

Just finished watching Cue!
It's not the most memorable thing in the world, but it's very cute and wholesome~❤️
One thing I REALLY Appreciated about this show was the lack of male gaze, like, there's none of THAT kind of fanservice, all the girls were just portrayed like normal people, it was Great!!

So I was playing that Wind Waker Linkle mod and I thought: "This is brilliant! Every #Zelda game needs a hack like this! ... Why don't I make one myself?"
And well, yeah, here it is!
(It's not finished yet, I'll post a patch as soon as it is though!)
#Zelda40th

Cute girls anime is usually like that... They get dismissed a lot due to, frankly, mysogyny, but then you actually watch them and turns out they're lowkey the best thing ever...

Something I often say is: When every character is female, they're forced to write CHARACTERS, not tokens.

My best memories going out and about as a kid was when my parents took me to the arcade.
You can't race on a cockpit cabinet with a wheel and pedals and glowy buttons at home! (Not without a ridiculous amount of money that is...)

My counter point is that the graphics aren't worse, they're better!
This is just my opinion of course, but I think 2D games Almost Always look better than 3D games, and stylised 3D games Basically ALWAYS Look better than realistic ones.
I know, this is a whole other kettle of fish, but y'know...

Screenshot of Cue, Maruyama Rie strikes a cool pose while holding a script and standing behind the microphone.

Rie here Absolutely STOLE The 2nd half of the show... She utterly usurped the main character role, and frankly, the show was all the better for it!

Screenshot of Cue! All 16 main characters stand on stage in matching coords, hands linked and raised. "Thank you very much!" they all say in unison.

What do you mean there's still two whole episodes after this climax?!?!
Anyway, bloody good show!
