It really is a must. Two cartridge slots, gloriously unnecessary but we love to see it! Also, lovely UI. 👀

Forgive an older guy a little rambling, but I just want to talk a little bit about the state of games media. The written kind, in particular. There was a time where this could be an actual full-time job for many, but that was decades ago. It became a side hustle for 95% when the magazines died out.

I’ve written for magazines before but this is the first time I’ve seen a book about something I worked on. Very cool.

On Dec. 26, 1971, Patrick Critton boarded an Air Canada flight from Thunder Bay to Toronto.
With a handgun and grenade, he hijacked the plane and had it flown to Cuba.
He was arrested 30 years later thanks to a Google search and a fingerprint on a can of Canada Dry.

Got my Hand-Drawn Game Guides: Mega Man yesterday. Some real dope art in this.

Put my Dr. Wily sticker on my Evercade Alpha MM Edition...even though the book seems to neglect to mention Evercade EXP and Super Pocket as places you can play Mega Man 1.

Will Arnett was on Conan and told a story about how Conan dealt with the death of his parents by accusing Jason Bateman of killing them. It’s so funny.
