After getting into Picross, I'm glad there's a 3DS version of #FinalFantasy #Pictlogica- translated to English no less (thanks, translators)!
But it's odd seeing:
A FF I Goblin
in a FF VI Background
with FF V Characters
with Pixel Remaster sprites
in a FF IV 5-party row-formation
with mobile text.

I was looking up the Cacpom and SNK Picross and came across something called Squeakross.
OH
MY
!!!!!!!
It's on PC as well! I can only imagine if there's a modding scene or not.

Came across this cancelled Pokémon game, Pokémon Picross. Decided to nab it knowing I'm just nabbing it for nabbing's sake. I've never played Picross my entire life so I decided to give it a go.
Picross is just Sudoku with art.
I fucking love Sudoku and (pixel-)art!
Capcom and SNK are next!

I've known about Outrun 2 '06 because of the PSP, but I never really -played- it until now. And it's so much fun!
I especially like having to impress my white Californian GF by ramming into cars and avoiding meteors just to get her Starbucks because she won't dirty her Uggs.

No disrespect to @oromoney.bsky.social ...because it is the truth!
But this was all of season 2 of Solo Leveling when it came to him and spoilers. Dood really couldn't contain himself.
I get it though, but goddamn, it gave me FFXV flashbacks until I eventually caved in for the carbuncle demo lol.

I made a joke bid offer of a Yellow DSi LL (Japanese) for $60. It was listed for $100. The seller accepted it.
I didn't expect that at all.
Well then. The fact that it's shipping within the US and I don't have to worry about tariffs along with it being my favorite color- I'll take this unexpected W.

I feel confident that I can walk up to any woman and ask,
"Show me a photo of a meal or drink you had on July 17th 2017", and they'd likely had a photo of a food or drink had on that day.
Meanwhile, asking a guy I have to consider their sub-species/clique. "Which dick pick do you usually send?"

I think I can "mod" the DSi's shoulder button to use the SteamDeck's microswitch shoulder buttons. The SteamDeck's buttons work mechanically different and promote longer health.
They seem to be about the same size as well and use 3 pins. It's just a matter if the the DSi's assembly recognizes it.

Got a used DSi for $20. Worn, but still 100% functional outside the L/R issue that Nintendo cheped out on. 4th pic has a dent/blemish.
I hate this color with a passion though, but looking forward to re-shelling this with a Yellow color. I wanted a Yellow DSi LL, but tariffs murdered that hope.

Hello. We are the factories that make the plastic, paper, & chips you all covet for your precious Video Games. We know that you will covet our plastic, paper, & chips over the reproduction ones because ours are old and "sanctioned" by the big companies. We hope you enjoy our plastic, paper, & chips.

Almost done with #SwordofMana and I think it's the first time I've ever recognized a game that put all its effort in everything but the gameplay. And I think the problem with the gameplay is that they were forced to stay within how the series functions.
There's so much backend bloat that ruins it.

How am I suppose to compliment your looks when they're behind all that make-up?
Sucks for you, but that's how my brain is and doesn't help I've detested make-up since I was but a wee babe.
But damn, some people really do know how to put on make-up at cons. "Boy-howdy".

I just beat Fallout 3 for the first time in a span of 9 days or so. Probably 20-30hours? Anyway. It's come to my attention that despite loving New Vegas, I've never beat it despite have 3x more playtime. I keep making new characters and messing around in that one. In FO3, I felt like I saw it all.

A lot of people are tech illiterate. And it doesn't help that these tech illiterate people don't look stuff up and just ask people (e.g. Yahoo Answers / Reddit) to very simple solutions.
I can't imagine what the IT world is actually like.

Every time I pass through this asian market. Every time I say, "I'll give it a shot". Every time I enter just to use their bathroom lol.
But man, to think of all the great foods, sauces, and spices I'm missing out. I know if I do go, it'll be for hours on translation and research alone.

Alright, Fallout 3. You win. I have no idea how to get to the Galaxy Radio Station. I've explored the metro stations and deviated from each path. And somehow I can't find it.

There are so many games I want to re-play! Too bad 95% of them are JRPGs =S
But hey, at least #SwordofMana is actually really fun and charming! To be honest, having a dedicated "jump" button is a huge waste. It would've been better as a quick-swap button where you can swap to "jump".
Only 2hrs in.
