it occurs to me that we don't actually know much about european cuisine outside of italian, british, and greek

all we know about german food is bratwurst and sauerkraut, all we know about french food is that it's famous for being really pretentious, and we don't know anything about like, spanish or finnish or dutch or i dunno belarusian food

has anyone made a video game based around exploiting and playing with glitchy physics engines?

it's not like there are more of them than before, it's just... they feel more overwhelming than before

do you ever just have moments where, even though it was fine a few minutes ago, suddenly getting notifications on things feels overwhelming

affricates are neat

who would win

though since we never had an original gb, just a gbc, maybe should go with a color one like that

but finding an artist who would work within the color limitations of the gbc (and who would be willing to learn what those limitations are) would be hard

gay men be

or like gameNB or gameenby or something? not sure how you'd write that with the two Es

commission idea: four-color greenscale pixel art of me on a gameboy screen, with the logo changed to read gamenby

we also remember thinking that since 16 bit consoles were "better" than 8 bit ones and 64 bit ones were "better" than 16 bit ones, that that obviously meant the gamecube was a 128-bit console (it's not, it's also a 64-bit architecture)

we also thought that the atari 2600 was a 4-bit system (it's not, it's 8-bit)

remember video game console hoaxes?

we remember being absolutely convinced as a kid that nintendo was working on the gamesphere as a follow-up to the gamecube

and there was stuff about an xbox 720 floating around the internet for ages

hmm. today is a day.

flying foxes are adorable and i want to hug one

nonmonotonic

eternally annoyed that epona didn't end up being a major character in twilight princess's story, despite the fact that you can talk to animals in that game

i worry sometimes about whether i should say anything when i see friends and acquaintances talking to our close friend's abusive ex.... but it's kinda not our place to say? or is it? i don't know

apparently whether you play it on a widescreen display or not actually materially affects the speedrun of super mario galaxy 120 star

because you need a lot of star bits for that speedrun and you can pick up star bits by pointing the wii remote at them, but that only works for ones that are on screen, and the game has a habit of having star bits spawn in around mario/luigi while in autoscrolling segments specifically to be picked up this way. some of them spawn offscreen at 4:3 resolutions
