Did a rewatch of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners while dogsitting this weekend. Third time around and it remains just as engaging. Finished the game now I appreciate the shared world so much more. Recognizing all the places in the show in the game was preem.

Still heartbreaking AF.

Finally got around to Scott Pilgrim Takes Off. Really weird project and had a rough start, just mimicking the movie. Then it got interesting from ep 3 onward as a bizarre mirror / remix of the story into its own self meta commentary staring Ramona. Overall? It's a good time.

Not quite the same, but I'm in.

Have you not watched IT Crowd?

Okay Square... You have my attention.

Took me about a year to get to this Insert Coin documentary on Williams/Midway, but it's pretty great... Except for I KNEW the game was cheating (NBA Jam)!

Super neat. Managed to get my Switch Lite to run PS5 remote play. Of course I put this to best use and play a PS4 port of a PS1 game that's also available on the Switch already. Do you not know who I am by now.

That's a wrap on Wave, Listen to Me! Been really growing into this whole seinen slice of life direction w/anime over the last year or two. Watching a woman find her voice while stumbling around a cast of bizarre friends and coworkers in radio has been a blast. Shame it has to end.

This is called Mouse Guard. It's great. And written by a Michigan native.

I should grab it to watch as God intended.

So my FF7 gacha game has a FF13 crossover event going on. You can get Lightnings outfit and sword for your characters... But also they dropped in a lot of music from it and it has me pining for another playthrough of those games.

Square, why is it the ONLY FFs I can't play on my PS5? Cmon!!!

Watching an anime currently about a woman who gets pulled into being a radio host of fictional broadcasts (think War of the Worlds) called Wave, Listen to Me!. Lady really needs to get her life sorted out because it's a constant train wreck. Don't feel bad about mine in comparison 😅

I was told by a committee of coworkers just now that I remind them of a Temu Matt Berry... Not sure if I should be offended or not?

Stepped into my backyard today to have this deer nestled up in the corner against my house and fence. Other side of the fence in my neighbors yard their friend is right there.

I live in a dense suburb of Detroit. I guess nature is taking back?

TIL that KISS put their blood in the ink that printed their first comic.

Items I acquired yesterday at the Detroit Retro Gaming Show...
Zelda music CD set
Neat Japanese Band Games book
Modded Switch Lite (custom shell, mod chip/jail broken, hall effect joysticks)

Very happy with my finds.

This is so fucking rad for 1977 tech. NEVER heard of this before.

Happy Saturday! Enjoy sitting on the dock of the bay, or whatever pleases your dragonborn heart.

Finished a rewatch of Last Exile series, long term favorite of mine. A weird mix of steampunk / sci-fi where airships serve as boats / submarines in a big ol' class warfare story. Largely character driven, some dodgy 3D since it was made in 2003, but still love this show.

My Nintendo play history is about what I'd expect. A bunch of JRPGs and Animal Crossing at the top. Both ACs are over 300, FF7 is over 200.

Majority of play was on 3DS, loved that system.

Big Red is done. She's a big girl!

That's a wrap on R.O.D. the TV. Fun follow up to the Read or Die OVA I just watched. Big time jump, new set of protagonists... a bit of "die the hero or live to become the villain" energy to it... But also it's just fun adventures of people using magical origami to save the world.

Siliconera has a lot less shitty quality review if you're interested.
