Oiy only 4 pics at a time... anyway, this here's the Kotobukiya plamo of the starting Skell from Xenoblade Chronicles X! This was bigger and more robust then I was expecting, which was nice, even if the color accuracy leaves a bit to be desired. Still happy to have this rep on the shelf! #gunpla

Random game #17! Robotron 64!
Man I love this game but yeesh... 200 is too many levels. I get its an old fashioned game and they had lots of space to work with for its low asset build, but thats just... its too much, its too much. Did you know the player character is named Eugene? What a guy.

Random game #16! Dissidia [duodecim] 012 Final Fantasy!
The original dissidia and its major patch update, duodecim, are great fighting games that are still played by a small competitive community to this day. Its criminal that Squenix doesn't just HD release this with rollback, like, cmon already!

Every nerd couple has a warhammer explainer and a warhammer hostage

Iglight and Tecprot built and ready to be torn apart for custom jorbies! I love the legs on both these bots, def gonna use ig's for another buggy bot, and tec's for a knockoff 90's gundam. Ig's head is also already promised to a recreation build. Lots to do with these bots. #30MM

Lightbox photo of the cart for Vectorman 2 for the Sega Genesis, it is being contemplated from behind my an RG Zaku 2 gunpla, but if I'm real, I really wish I had the HG Mandala Gundam instead cuz he also got those ball limbs, it would've been perfect.

Random game #15! Vectorman 2!
I've never even attempted to play this sequel yet and I needta finish the first one but I always have fond memories of playing and watching people play these games. Also I'm gonna not bother with the backlog roulette pic anymore, dunno why I thought it mattered.

Oh hell yah we finally got one of my weirder collection items! Yes thats no mistake, that's a "Garantia Portugal" sticker, SEGA sticker, on the case, it is a Portuguese release of the game. Def a great convo starter! #DBZ

Got me some hella #gunpla to build after my work week is over this weekend.

Random game #13! Sonic Advance 3!
What a bunch of great games Sonic had on the GBA and DS that largely went overlooked for a long time during what I remember as the period everyone considered the series' dead or horrible. Wish they'd come up with team names for ever character combo though.

Marsha P Johnson with a rainbow behind her, and the quote: “History isn’t something you look back at and say it was inevitable. It happens because people make decisions that are sometimes very impulsive and of the moment, but those moments are cumulative realities.”

This #BlackHistoryMonth and LGBTQ+ History Month, we’re remembering Marsha P Johnson, the tireless activist who participated in the 1969 Stonewall riots.

She fought throughout for trans rights and for the rights of people of colour within the LGBT+ movement before her passing in 1992.

Beat UFO Grendizer Feast of the Wolves tonight and I dont care if its got an flakey frame rate and simple gameplay, I really really enjoyed my time with this game. The bright beautiful colors, the weight of the robot, the (probably) intentionaly funny dub acting. This is a game these bots deserve.

I am a bit late but Happy Odaiba Memorial Day!
#digimon

Def lookin' forward to this but please bear in mind my enjoyment of difficulty does NOT mean I won't get mad. I am gonna swear about it, I'm gonna swear like a sailor about it, I will get mad, but also I will play it and like it.

Random game #12! Crash Bandicoot: N.Sane Trilogy!
I didn't have a PS1 during the early stages of that console's life so I never played the Crash or Spyro games back then, and I've picked up the modern trilogy releases to try and make up for that... but yeesh Crash 1 is throwing me thru the ringer..

I dunno why I need to say this but I will just tell YT never to recommend your channel if the thumbnail is AI made. The fact so many game collation channels have been doing that is really dumb... just use shots of the games? Ya fucks? The thumbs arent ever of anything real so whats it doing?

Pixel art of various animal themed robot bosses. The tag at the top says MegaGear X

People keep saying the codenames in Metal Gear Solid sound like Megaman X bosses, so I decided to give them actual designs. Matches the scale of my other X mockups.

Something I've been sitting on for several years that I finally decided to wrap up tonight.

Put on the theme to Buck Bumble and auto playlist put on Darude’s Sandstorm right after. So my night at work is suddenly boppin.

Random game #11! Grandia 3!
I knew eventually we'd hit a game I couldnt safely remove the tags from... sigh. Thats one of those things as a collector that always hurts. Should buy a bulk of PS2 cases or something. Oh, the game, haven't played any Grandia game yet... and I think I have them all 🤷‍♂️

Over 50% of game developers now think generative AI is bad for the industry, a dramatic increase from just 2 years ago: 'I'd rather quit the industry than use generative AI' The latest GDC survey also found that managers are more likely to use generative AI than their employees.

"Our standing rule is: If one of us brings up using GenAI in any of our work, then it's safe to assume we've been assimilated by The Thing and should be burned alive by Kurt Russell," said a game design consultant in the US.

Random game 10# FF4:Advance!
Gotta be totally honest I don't have much connection to mainline FF games, and this might be one of the LEAST connected-to of the FF main titles for me. So I don't have much to say here, though its def a cool game from everything I've seen of it.

Cool fact: you can like a game that I don't & thats awesome! Glad you found joy in something that I couldn't

The inverse is also true in that I can like a game that you don't & by that metric you shouldn't crawl up my ass about how it sucks actually

my enjoyment (or lack of) shouldn't affect you!

Lightbox photo of the case for REZ on PS2. A HG Leo is pretending to flying standing on one leg leaning over so the rest of its body is horizontal with its arms straight out to its' sides.

Random game #9! REZ!
What a delightfully trippy game, REZ. I haven't finished it yet but I also get the feeling that just like... vegging out while playing through stages is kind of the peak of the games' vibe and experience... not really about grinding to credits y'know? I'ts... mellow.
