I'm a developer. Instead of being sad about the state of the internet I should be trying help make it cool and fun again. Maybe making my own web-based something or another will be my lofty goal for 2026. That does mean less time to play GameCube though so maybe I'll just stay bitter and game.

If you use the algorithms instead of the following feeds on social media you're letting the billionaires win.
Exceptions being if you're stuck waiting at a doctor's office or the like and forgot your Game Boy.

Merry Christmas, everyone. I received a couple of fun goodies this year and took the day off so it was a good one.

The honorable mentions could very well make another completely legit top 10 list or two. Especially when you consider ports and remakes.

I wish I had a few months of time to just work on a project. I can't afford to be unemployed but I made some neat stuff the last time I was.

I finally unlocked all the characters in F-Zero GP Legend. My wife didn't seem very impressed but I think she was just sick of hearing the music. If not for that, I'm sure she'd think it's very, very cool.

I’ve been in Tokyo conducting Big Business this week and nodding along in meetings with clients and vendors pretending I know what’s going on.

Yeeeeees. Finally beat Black Shadow’s last mission on F-Zero GP Legend. It took me awhile to figure out how to slam into the barriers to get around most corners because the ship is almost uncontrollable.

I've been messing with trackers a bit lately and trying to make some chiptune. The interface takes some getting used to but it's fun for a guy that doesn't have a band or a way to record tons of different instruments. It'd be cool to make music for some kind of retro throwback game at some point.

I can't really hate on the Geoffys. There's usually at least one announcement that's cool and I like the orchestra. You can't beat a good orchestra.

DK King of Swing because it was called Burabura Donkey in Japan and I think that sounds funny. Congratulations!

I've played so many GBA games over the last two months that I'm gonna put on the Game (Boy Advance) Awards.

Just finished the main 6 worlds and got all the presents and then went and watched a review of the remake to see what people thought. The review really harped on how the game is easy and for kids but I thought the puzzles were pretty devious by world 6 lol. It’s a lot of fun though.

I've been getting ads and even seeing Gabe talk about getting ahead of AI and mastering it to further your career and whatnot. Isn't the point that AI does the heavy lifting? Make somebody watch a 2 hour webinar on best prompting practices and they're up to speed. It doesn't seem like a big value ->

It’s no analogue 3D but I finally hooked up the ol’ CRT in front of the couch for that crusty retro gaming we used to love.

Just finished Klonoa: Empire of Dreams and it's a real hidden gem. The stages are like big puzzle labyrinths that Mario Vs. Donkey Kong or DK 94 fans will get a kick out of. They're fun to navigate and make you feel pretty smart when you figure out the tough ones.
