Just a dude that likes videogames and pinball, but probably not nearly as much as he used to. 🤦♂️

Did a thing. Pretty sweet trophy! “Friday Night Translites” pinball house league is pretty cool. You get to play in a bunch of well curated, high-end home collections. Nothing quite like good home-collection pinball.

Ohhhh shhhhhh****t!!!! Just got my first 1CC on Xeno Crisis (played via the Nintendo 64 version)! It's a requirement for the best ending. Such an awesome game!

Milo brought this up to the countertop where he is fed while I was gone. Normally he drags it around, but not to places like this. 😂

Hahahaha... I completely forgot this guy was in this game. This is if you get the first alt-route, but fail to get the second right before the boss door.

Whew! Already beat Final Fight 3. Not as good as I was hoping, but it's still fun. Better than Final Fight 2 by a mile.

Got the best ending on Castlevania: Dracula X for SNES! Very risky halfway through the game, so it gets tense when you are going for it.

Probably won’t be adding many, if any, SNES games to the collection after this. Nearing pretty much “done” in just about every aspect of my life, especially with video games.

Three years ago I took this photo after a bout of rejection. It sucked. Today, I sit in the same spot, three years to the day, under similar circumstances and similar weather conditions.
I hope this planet is hit by an asteroid. Humans suck.

Cleaning Avatar for the first time in many months. This is post-Novus 2, pre-wax. Also gave in to the fact my Ampsuit is a piece of trash. So I just tie-wrapped it back together. Whatever, no one except me is going to notice anyway. Everyone hates this game. 🤣

That moment when you think sitting on the couch arm rest to respond to texts is a good idea, and you end up pinned down for the better part of an hour… 🤷♂️

Beat Coryoon for the PC Engine on my first try! Super easy, primarily because you get a ton of extra lives from points. Super adorable game. I'm going to have to try it on higher difficulties.

Just finished Dungeon Explorer on the Sega CD! Fun game you sort of just zone out to. It's got multiple endings, and I had no idea until the ending, but this is considered Part 3 in the series (I thought it was just an unrelated spin-off with the same name). Very cool!
