Today I saw the singers of #Persona 3 Reload and Persona 5 in person. Man…I feel a lot.
I’ve been a fan of the games and especially the music for my entire adult life. Every single game I’ve ever made, I’ve made while listening to some persona ost. I’m so lucky I got to be at the first U.S. concert

Kirby AirRiders is pure joy. Playing city trail had me smiling for the entire 5 minutes.

@kitellis.bsky.social new Machamp card just dropped in TCG Pocket

I was so excited to see the new Kirby Air Riders gameplay presented in the classic Sakurai level of detail, but I’m a bit sad that Top Ride mode is gone. This was actually my favorite of the original modes. Despite that, the game looks fantastic! I’m so excited for it.

@ziondood.bsky.social hi Zion! I loved your video on game key cards. I had an idea!

I wonder how Sega (and other 3rd party companies) would react to a video compilation of major gaming influencers/journalists all asking for the option for full games on a card. I imagine it could help a ton.

Wait, what the damn hell?!

@kitellis.bsky.social in honor of you, I’m winning with my machamp deck!

This month has been really challenging for me after being laid off.
I tried challenging myself to land a job by today. It didn’t happen. It’s okay. I’ll find something.

I decided to still celebrate myself on my birthday by seeing the newest Ari Aster film. Just like the rest of his work, masterful

At times I get really discouraged to keep making games. I fight this by playing works that influenced me in my childhood, or I think about my family. Other times, I listen to game music that teleport me to a time when playing games felt 100% magical, like this:

Losing your job in a volatile industry is one thing, but having it happen when extreme racism makes being Latino something to fear is a whole other story. Kidnappings in broad daylight. Concentration camps. It’s all so mentally draining. Somehow though, I escape by making games. #gamedev

Of course!

@themix.bsky.social had an awesome event on a LA rooftop! There were so many great indie games to play. As a dev myself that’s dying to control my own value, I felt inspired by all of these extremely talented creators.

The Wind Waker is still a masterpiece
#Switch2

Look at this specimen! A waluigi vampire!
WAMPIRE WALUIGI!!!!!
It’s over! Forget about it!
Game of the year!
#switch2
#mariokartworld

Continuing with the Nintendo launch tradition that my mother helped me start back in 2001 with the gamecube.

Feeling so happy and inspired right now!

Hi, is the in-person event opened to the public?

Give it a try and let me know what you think.
I worked pretty hard designing and programming the boss for this new level.

@jon.gvg.io is my spirit animal.

I’ve been saying this about the virtual boy for ages!

@gvg.io just caught the top ten multiplayer video you all released.

It made me wonder if there’s any possibility of you guys doing a top ten video on cancelled games that people WISHED they got to play. That’d be super interesting. Mother 3, StarCraft Ghost, Contra 64, Kirby Tilt and Tumble 2, etc

@jon.gvg.io I had my sister (who rarely plays games) try EMIO. She loved it and now I’m sending her your GVG video on the game.

We got another one on our side!

@kitellis.bsky.social I could’ve sworn I wrote text, too. I didn’t mean to just leave you a context-less photo of machamp in his birthday wrestling suit. My bad! Meant to say, “new machamp just dropped!”

New Machamp just dropped, again.

@kitellis.bsky.social

Just learned about this podcast. I’m excited to check out all the episodes!

The person demoing removed screen shake and turned down the camera sensitivity, but I still felt sick. It did help a little bit though. As a fellow DK64 freak, I really hope you don’t experience the same thing.

We had to adjust the right stick camera speed, and remove screen shake all together for it to get better. I still felt sick though. While it helped, it seemed like so much of that juicy feedback was lost.

A lot of people take sick days when a big game releases. In my case, it might not be a lie.

@duckvalentine.bsky.social hi Rebekah!
I know on NVC you were so thrilled for DK Bananza, as was I. I played it yesterday in LA, but unfortunately got bad motion sickness. The employee demoing and about 8 other attendees I spoke to, also felt the same. Are you prone to feeling that in some games?

@brianaltano.bsky.social hi!
When you played DK Bananza, did you get motion sickness at all?
I went to the LA Switch2 event, and got it within 5 minutes. The employee demoing said she had been getting motion sickness, too. I spoke to about a dozen attendees, and more than half said they did, too.

I’m so lucky! I got to play the #Switch2 today in LA.

I have too many positive thoughts for this small character limitation!

In short, I was in love. Mario Kart Knockout Tour stole the show for me. Prime 4 was visually the most impressive. Zelda BotW in 4K nearly made me cry! #nintendo

The time has come #switch2

I’ll soon be available for game design, creative direction, and consultancy opportunities while I develop my own projects. I’m also open to paid speaking engagements if you know of any!

If you’d be willing to share/repost this, or just send a kind word, I’d truly appreciate it. Thank you! ♥
