Mail call! 35 years ago, Square released what it believed could be its last game due to financial troubles, which they chose to call “Final Fantasy.” It sold 1.3 million copies by 1994 and the series has continued, with dozens of new titles and the critically acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV.

I think my Gyarados (named Happiness) is trying to tell me something. #pokemon #pokemongo #niantic #coffee #coffeenow

I haven't livestreamed in far too long, so tonight, let's break that trend! 8pm CT, live on YouTube, be prepared for some chill vibes with a music-based game I think you'll really enjoy.

A duo called ATLiens dropped this Saturday night and the crowd ate it up with all the feels. I love seeing collabs - there is sooooo much great music and experiences to share if you can have an open mind and heart to it. #edm #creed #ncmf #northcoastmusicfestival

Peekaboo b2b Caspa was a delight and a joy. You could just tell there was a lot of heart and mutual joy poured by these guys into the hour-long collab.

A bouncy ball race on Rainbow Road, the corresponding blue shell floating in the crowd, deadmau5 and Of the Trees with very different, very powerful sets.

Day 2 at North Coast Music Festival was a blast! I’ll drop more photos, but this gives you a sense of the enormity of the community here. The positive vibes have been overflowing all weekend long, one more day let’s gooo!!! #northcoastmusicfestival #edm #dubstep #edmchicago #ncmf

North Coast Music Festival is @cloud9.gg country. Sooooo many C9 fans sharing the love here today in Chicago, let’s gooo!!! #c9win #cloud9 #ncmf #northcoastmusicfestival #edm

Let’s go Yuki!

I LOVE the Psygnosis mug that’s legit 🔥

Yesterday is history.
Tomorrow is a mystery.
But today is a gift.
That is why they call it the present.

Also, I have finished three games in less than sixty days. What in the Steam library is wrong with me?!?

Another game finished! Hyper Light Drifter was a wonderful journey overall. The boss fights were challenging but fair. I may explore some more to fill some lore, but i also feel satisfied for now with the main playthrough. #hyperlightdrifter #switch #arpg

While I’m not the biggest comic collector by any stretch, I do love finding some fun video game books from time to time, especially a more limited series like this. #nightsintodreams #sega #retrogaming #gamingcomic

Atari 800XL - not only did I first play Frogger on it, but I taught myself at age 9 along with a book my dad had on BASIC how to write a program to roll a character for dungeons and dragons on it.

Someday, I’ll find love. Real love. Lasting love.

Right?

Ugh, sorry about that, but happy Friday anyway <3

I mean, at least the dude shows up for work every night.

You can play the stories in any order you want. I recommend the following both for narrative cohesion and challenge.

1. Shigure
2. Sara
3. Taketora

I think this is a solid entry point for people who aren’t as familiar with roguelite/roguelike games. The progression can get a bit repetitive, but overall it felt satisfying and will be one I likely grind over time to 100%ing.

I just finished the three main stories in Yasha: Legends of the Demon Blade. Beautiful art and music, somewhat frustrating parry system but solid dodge and combat mechanics, and an enjoyable 13-hour run. #switch #yasha #roguelite

I have to give @gameinformer.com huge credit! The first two issues I have received have been absolutely wonderful reads. I love the long-form articles, including real talk about the industry, and the physical quality very much compares with Retro Gamer, which I consider a premium product. Bravo!

On Wednesdays, we wear @pinkgorillagames.com #retrogaming #notsponsoredintheslightest

I finally beat the main storyline of Donkey Kong Bananza last night (staying up way too late doing so). Such a wonderful Disney-like plot and characters, with wonderful art and musical inspiration. Pauline was treated so well in this game, and it sets up great for an eventual sequel.

Oh, bananza!

Um this amiibo is just precious!

Time to go BANANAS with this DK BANANZA! #donkeykong #bananza #nintendo #switch2

I sold many of those C-765s when I ran the electronics department at a Target store. Darn good camera.
