I'm excited to share that I was a beta tester for the upcoming game "Pixel Pup" developed by @retrodotcards.com. This is a custom Picross-style game embedded entirely on printed e-Reader cards, making it fully playable on original GBA hardware! Such an incredible and fun little game! 🔥

A new video is live on my channel. Join me as I discuss Animal Crossing's immense dialogue and what makes it tick. Definitely a more casual video with a relaxed focus this time around, but I hope you're able to enjoy it nonetheless. ✍️

A true triumph in video game history! This video uncovers a lot of pre-release 3DS demos, including the first ever look at a “playable” version of New Leaf’s 2010 E3 demo. Congratulations to James and the 3DS Challenge Team for an amazing release. 👀

Thank you all for the kind birthday wishes! Spent yesterday visiting Super Nintendo World at Universal Studios for the very first time. Such an incredible park filled with so many details and references. I had an amazing time! Now, back to work on the editing grind. 💪

Was recently gifted these amazing Pokémon Center plushes that act as card displays. While I'm mostly known for Animal Crossing, I also collect Pokémon cards and thought these were neat! Maybe I'll share more of my collection from time to time. 🤔

I've taken the time to update my Animal Crossing letter scoring tool that launched earlier this year on my website. Included is a brand new UI, alongside various code optimizations and additional scaling support for mobile devices. 📨

A new video is out now, covering the niche glitches and oddities of New Leaf! With this, our series on Animal Crossing oddity compilations comes to a close! However, something tells me we'll be revisiting New Leaf again real soon... 🍃

I've made the decision to delay this video a couple days to Friday, August 1st. Following a final review, I wasn't happy with the editing quality of a few sections and I plan to spend the next couple days improving them. I apologize for the delay, but I really want to do this video justice! 🙇♂️
Tune in this Wednesday, July 30th for an approximately 30min video covering a special, technical project that has been months in the making. Excited to share this one with you all! 🥳

It's incredible to see fully independent games developed for the e-Reader in 2025, especially since these are physical cards that all play beautifully on real hardware. If you own an e-Reader, you need to pick these up! Such a fair price for one of the most impressive projects I've ever followed. 🔥
