The patch for MKL is live on Switch! The lag is improved (not perfect much much better) and the game feels much better!

Here’s to more fixes and online lobbies and this could rapidly become the ultimate fighting game!
Patch 1.0.3 for Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection on Nintendo Switch 2 is now live and includes a number of fixes and improvements to bring this version to parity with other platforms.

Walmart using the Grinch for their greedy corporate holiday advertising is like a logging company using the Lorax. Talk about missing the point of a character!

Here we are nearly at the 3 week mark and no update for Switch 2 Mortal Kombat Legacy in sight.

That’s very unlike @digitaleclipse.bsky.social as I’ve thoroughly enjoyed their other collections (Atari, Tetris) and the Atari one even got a surprise Pac-Man addition last week!

Frankenstein is my favorite novel of all time. So it’s with a heavy heart that I say… 1000+ films and we are yet to have an accurate adaptation. Del Toro’s film is wonderful and I’m hoping it gets special disc treatment but it changes too much in both story and theme to be considered book accurate.

That said, I’d rather a game be delayed than come out in a buggy unfinished state like I feel the recent Mortal Kombat Legacy did.

To their credit, MKL’s developer is planning patches already. They’re a great company so I doubt the rushed release was all on them.

Ok. Since Borderlands 4 and Mina the Hollower are delayed (and it’s on sale), I gave in and got Dave the Diver. Let’s see if this lives up to all the hype.

I wasn’t sure IT needed a prequel but Welcome to Derry is bangin’ it up so far! Great show!

It is time! The day grows weary. The night rolls in. Lights begin to flicker, trying to hold back the encroaching dark. Spooks, goblins, witches, and spirits rise from their slumber to walk among the living. Be-ware! Lest one catch you unawares!

Anyone else feel it’s a missed marketing opportunity to release Mortal Kombat Legacy on a random Thursday instead of on a Monday?

If they did it a few days earlier or later, they could remake or update and reuse the Mortal Monday ads from ‘93. Those things had the world hyped for the original MK!

Pokemon Legends Z-A - my thoughts at 20 play hours.

Pros:
- Refreshing new battle system
- Nice graphics for a Pokemon game
- Core gameplay is still fun
- Interesting story

Cons:
- No voice acting
- Small (mostly) uninteresting map
- Price (feels like a $40 game to me)

Streaming has been (mostly) lax lately but now we’re getting Welcome to Derry, Stranger Things, and Del Toro’s Frankenstein all within weeks. Lots of watching incoming!

@fantasyflightgames.bsky.social What’s the official word on Marvel Champions? I got very into it this year to find a couple great sets were out of print. Now your site says like 50% of the stuff is out of print. Is this game dying just as I’m getting into it? Please say reboots/reworks are coming!
October 21, 2025 at 1:31 PM
I don’t need it because I don’t have the time to play the games I have but I want a new TTRPG rule book to read.

Any recommends?

My first thought was Shadowdark since my go-to games are OSE (B/X) and DCC.

This selfie turned out very #RobZombie even tho that wasn’t the intent. Still… great for a #Halloween profile pic.

So that Nintendo Direct made me think that buying a Switch 2 might’ve been mostly a waste. No good new exclusives. Most of the old games releasing are on OG Switch anyway. In an hour presentation, only the Resident Evil and MK Legacy announcements even made my radar.

Well… I guess any debate about the #crackerbarrel logo is done. The company’s announced its switching back to the previous logo with the old man and a barrel after online backlash.
August 27, 2025 at 12:20 AM
I’m not offended that they removed the old man from the #crackerbarrel logo but I do dislike that what they replaced it with is bland corporate uniformity. It’s just like the modern Taco Bell and others. Bland and dull. Uniqueness is being killed by capitalism.
August 26, 2025 at 7:17 PM
Why are people saying the old man on the Cracker Barrel logo was “the cracker”? Thats not why the store is called Cracker Barrel! Sheesh! It has nothing to do with a racial slur! It’s literally named after the barrels that soda crackers used to come in and that people used as tables. #crackerbarrel
