"Hello there. I've finally arrived. Wow, the foot traffic was that bad, huh. Had to Naruto run my way towards the end a bit. Okay, now what I was here for... Oh yeah, the introduction!

I'm Nina Naomi and I'll be serving as the honorary first #OC of AidanStar64!

(Please do read the ALT)

In the middle of the artwork is me doing this peace-sign with my left-hand. Also wearing some red jeans, a blue shirt with purple sleeves, and some purple boots with these Mario-looking eyes I got for my birthday once! My current hairdo is "straight down like a waterfall," complete with a little hair pin with a stylish "n" on it.

Bonus fact: the Japanese wording on my blue shirt saids, "kokoro," which means, "heart."

Today was Gregg Mayles' last day at Rare. He posted this lovely little farewell over on social media. Since he's not on Bluesky, I hope he doesn't mind me sharing it here.

There's probably no video game designer, let alone creative mind, who has had as much of a positive impact on my life as Gregg.

A poem by Gregg Mayles, including a photo of him looking out at the countryside with Googly Eyes.

A Rather Resplendent Rewarding Rare Ramble

Grant me moments of your time,
To tell a story versed in rhyme,

In eighty nine this tale does start,
When famous wall did fall apart.

Still standing tall a lad left school,
Who'd employ this daydreaming fool?

A chance arose to go into banking,
Choice he ignored and forever thanking,

Local paper had tiny ad,
Go join Rare? WHAT! You must be mad!

He tested games then got into design,
Which somehow turned out reasonably fine,

Mentored by the Ultimate greats,
Expectations of Rare game traits,

Each game adding to his skills,
A memorable ride of many thrills,

First three toads and then some apes,
Donkey, Diddy, barrels of japes,

Grand adventures of bird and bear,
Whacking Ghoulies with haunted chair,

Critters of paper in gardening charm,
Sporting parties waving leg and arm,

Sailing pirates through stormy weather.
Players creating stories together,

Others too, much less well known,
With Rare magic in them sown,

Wonderful games made by splendid teams,
Enchanting players have been their dreams,

The Ruby Ramble one final chapter.
Of lovingly crafted games and laughter,

For here is where this story ends,
Thirty six years it's been my friends,

For come the day October fourteen,
At Manor Park then no longer seen,

His sack of fun upon his back,
To set off down a different track,

Leaving behind some parting advice,
Have no fear, it's helpful and nice,

If captivating players is what you seek,
Keep on making Rare games unique!

Now time to start new tales to tell,
Farewell to Rare he waves, farewell!

Gregg

I guess that I just wanted to vent this out to my followers on here since I never really talked about this before if anything and to show that how some pieces of media that people often gloss over as unimportant are important to others. (6/6)

Well, just last night, I did finish watching it with only the film to go left. Just finishing something that means a lot to me for personal and important reasons including for that teacher, has just made me have another grief episode at the moment. (5/6)

I made it a promise to myself that, as someone who only really watched like, five episodes of the show I mentioned before, that I would do it all throughout the year starting in January. (4/6)

Needless to say, that with teacher's death, I have had since then felt at times, grief with heavy emotions including today itself. (3/6)

She and I bonded a lot over all sorts of stuff like drawing & chatting. One of my interests that this teacher liked as well was Disney's Lizzie McGuire, of which she knew due to her daughter watching it back in the days. (2/6)

VENT: I haven't brought this up on here up until now, but around August of last year, I had heard that a former middle school teacher of mine who I had fond memories of almost a decade ago, had passed away due to cancer a couple of days before my birthday that year. (1/6)

The DK Vine review of Yooka-Replaylee will be posted a bit later today. Still, after staying up too late playing it last night, I'll say it's definitely an upgrade from the original (and I REALLY LIKE the original!). No wasted space, better flow, and it has way more heart and humor.

More to come.

Thanks for having that be an option. Do I just comment under the post of the episode that you are planning to record that day for it to register? Just want to ask as I will be asking something in a near Kongversation episode about Bananza.

WARIO: The Epitome of Evil @aidanstar64.bsky.social · 7d

Want to ask this for a while now, but whenever I call on the Kongversation before and listens to said episodes, I end up always not liking hearing my own voice, personally speaking. Is there is an alternative way of getting my question on any episode without having to hear my voice?

[IMPORTANT]

As a solution to help my mental health and priorities at the moment, starting tomorrow, I will be severely cutting down my activity on BlueSky.

This is less with recent events regarding the site, moreso I'm doing something that's best for me.

Since Dead End: Paranormal Park is hot topic today, time to bust out some old fan art;

I’m just gonna immediately tell them that John is no longer the man you knew.

They haven’t even seen what he’s doing right now with the Skydance films and HE is the reason why their films are nothing but pathetic Disney wannabes.

Alex Millar @arm2001.bsky.social · 10d

I just saw another one of those videos today and as a bonus, she even does that claim of ‘Pixar’s films would be so much better if Pete Docter never took over and John Lasseter was still in charge.’

Need I say more?

GabeA113 @gabea113.bsky.social · 10d

Great. I saw, yet, another “KPop Demon Hunters is better than Pixar’s recent films” stigma thumbnail on YouTube.

It’s been almost 4 months since that A.I Generated trend happened.

We are in the month of October.

JUST MOVE F**KING ON!

Maybe the Looney Tunes short most relevant to our times: 1956's TO HARE IS HUMAN, in which Wile E. Coyote creates a computer to think for him and slavishly obeys everything it tells him to do, no matter how self-destructive.

Nintendo is apparently lobbying the Japanese Government to push back against Generative AI.

Satoshi Asano, a member of Japan’s House of Representatives says Nintendo is choosing to avoid the use of generative AI in order to safeguard its IP.
