Holy cow! Kyoto Xanadu actually has a reference to Computer Land Tachikawa, the PC store that Falcom operated when they were first established in the 80s. They even look the similar.

Whenever I give a bar in NYC that still does buybacks, I feel like a soldier in antiquity, returning home after 20 years

I’ve noticed all of the rich people that go to the coffee shop near my job have just completely stopped tipping in the last year

recently started playing Near's translation of Bahamut Lagoon and i'm obsessed, so I snagged a copy of it from eBay because no one cares about this game and it was super cheap

Only on the JP version, if you hold C+Start on the 2nd controller when the Sega logo appears, you'll see Mania stomp on a Super Famicom before the intro starts

In 1998, the (bad) Italian movie Cucciolo somehow managed to do something important: they shot quite a long sequence in the now-defunct SegaWorld London, located inside the London Trocadero. The park opened in 1996 and closed in 1999.
Here is the entire sequence.

in the 90s a lot of folks sang about pigs and now they're mostly a forgotten lyrical concept

In other music thoughts, the new HEALTH is really good. I didn't really enjoy RAT WARS but it feels like they've tapped into something emotional and meaningful with CONFLICT DLC and got a second (third? fourth?) wind

Melvins "Stoner Witch" is basically a perfect album and i'll listen to it till the day I die

I felt extremely tempted to grab one of those Analogue 3D funtastic colors consoles today and I’m proud of myself for resisting

1. Because I’m broke

2. I honestly don’t really love the N64 all that much as a console to play by myself

my pettiest thought is when people play dumb shit on their phones at full volume on the subway, it's like a challenge to me.

do you know what sounds I could be playing at 6:30am?

do you?
GIRLFRIEND: why do you listen to such stressful music?
ME: (removing Sennheiser HD6XXs playing The Anal Staircase by COIL way too loud) what?

Never forget that fandom is so stupid, when Shigesato Itoi said “I think the next Mother game will be made by the fans,” some people took it literally and started a project called Mother 4

took a friend to Peter Luger tn and it was his first time. i've only been like 3x before and every time it's one of the best meals i've had in recent memory. I always end up thinking of that 0-star NYT review from a few years back and laugh. guy was on some kind of Pitchfork circa 1999 trip
