Dragon Quest sleepwear at Gelato Pique! I guess they are saving the sleepy Zoma merch for next time.

There had to have been a Love Plus pop up cafe at one time

Lapras Cafe food trucks are coming to Kasenuma in Miyagi prefecture on 10/12 to celebrate the soon to open Lapras Park! The burger is made out of shrimp, not Lapras. Or is it? 🤔

It’s so funny to me that Mega Man was exclusively at the Sega booth during Tokyo Game Show

Switch 1 can support a USB mouse! Switch 2 has the mouse built into the joycons, but several Switch 1 games do support mouse controls.

Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade preorder boxes for Switch 2! Seeing FFVII in any form on a Nintendo console is still a novelty for me.

Mario & Wario gets its first western release ever today thanks to NSO! Developed by Game Freak and directed by Satoshi Tajiri of Pokemon fame, you use the mouse to guide Mario to the goal while dodging obstacles. This has been one of my most anticipated NSO releases so I’m glad it’s finally here!

Strange Hard Off find: a DS Lite with a USB C charger and a custom shell. Seems like a lot of effort to make it only to end up selling it.

Cyberpunk 2077 is the benchmark for third party ports on Switch 2. No wait, Star Wars Outlaws is the new benchmark. Hold on, actually it’s FFVII Remake. Ok, maybe it’s Resident Evil Requiem now…
