Going on vacation relatively soon after Zelda comes out. I don't want to rush the game so I probably won't start it till mid June. šŸ˜”

Yeah for like 6 months. But maybe it's worth a second try.

Compared to StarTropics 3, the wait for Tears of the Kingdom has been nothing.

I played A LOT of Star Tropics, mostly out of respect for you. Okay. Only out of repsect for you.  Was there really a Star Tropics 2? and was it any good? and don't say "ask the internet" that's what I am doing right here goddmitt.

Here's an idea, why don't you go ask the internet?

Actually, you're going to have to because I've never played it. For a couple reasons, and none of them particularly great, I never played or even had any interest in Zoda's Revenge. I think it was a combination of being released so very late in the NES' lifecycle and the completely uninteresting box art.

However, when they release the remake of it in order to hype up StarTropics 3, I'll totally play it then.

By the way, here's a fun fact about StarTropics 2 that I just learned. It was released for the NES on March 15, 1994. That means the game actually came out closer to the launch of the Nintendo 64 than it did for the launch of Super Nintendo.

I also would not want to go to Malaysia, but humid and hot is the best part.

The Phil Spencer interview is mind boggling. I get that he's trying to downplay Xbox so they can buy Activision, but he says like four distinct thgins here to say "we suck and there is nothing we can do"  THEN WHAT IS YOUR FUCKING JOB?  QUIT AND LET ME RUN XBOX.

Again, I get this is subterfuge, but can you do it a bit more subtly so you don't look like an inept bystander.

Playing Dig Dug on Atari 2600. What an amazing accomplishment it is, not so much as the graphics, though they are good, but how on earth did they mimic the arcade gameplay. I have a stpory about dig dug, and the first time I played it in a coin-op laundry in Huntington Beach with a 17 year old gal, but that can wait until I can rememebr my password for gameunder.net, the official site of aspro and foolz meandering minds.

For as long as I have known I thought DMA Games (Which went on to be Rockstar) was an initialism for Doesn't Mean Anything.  Turn out it was an initialism of Direct Memory Access, which was a Commordore 64 term of reference.

I just thought you should know that.

I casually browsed through the Switch eShop yesterday evening and saw a Mario Kart like Disney game, which peaked my interest.  I watched the trailer and my god, I've never seen a game be so open about how it's basically just a storefront for DLC and microtransactions.  It's like they were actually proud of it.  Absolutely disgusting and quite the shame, as the game itself looks interesting enough.
