Went to a Target. Lots of PS5 hardware, zero Series X hardware in stock. A billion different colored controllers for both, though. Also I didn't realize Sony was getting behind Astro Bot with toys and stuff. They had like four different Astro Bot figures and a big $50 plush Astro Bot. Kinda neat!

Rob Fahey says that although handheld gaming devices are now a hot sector, nobody who isn’t Nintendo is actually selling many. "Building a dedicated handheld Xbox with a commitment to sell at least ten million units would have been pure hubristic madness."

I think I’ve had my fill of Mario 64. I respect it but I won’t finish it. Just gonna skip to galaxy

I’ve decided to play all 3D Mario’s. Never played 64 or sunshine. I am struggling with 64. There are so many obtuse hidden things you’d need a guide to find. One of the main levels is hidden behind a fromsoft secret wall for gods sake

I disagree, even just getting 30 stars to get past the second star door I had to look up several things unless I wanted to waste hours

Is this because games were designed with guides in mind a lot in the 90s?
