I don't think it's malicious or intentional but it's still uncomfortable to have Ludicolo, a pokemon with what seems a very Latin American inspired design, be the face of a logo that references a corporation that did/does such evil things to Latin American countries

I LOVE my smart pro for GBA and some portmaster things (we need more clicky button handhelds!) and frequently wish it had more power and better heat dissipation.

Hope they also upgrade the ram so it can run even better ports.

I know it's a gacha game and they do these things trying to sell but dear lord it really is incredible how much representation matters.

The fact that they even mention Mictlan specifically is like... So fucking amazingly cool of em, they really REALLY did their homework.

More like this please!

HOLY COW????

Marvel rivals might have, imho, the best visual style for representing the day of the dead, sans maybe Grim Fandango.

And even then...

Going back to Mexico for a couple weeks to set things in order and then setting down back in MTL for good.

Since I'm not bringing anything important back... my checked luggage is just coffee crisps and Montréal steak spice lol

I ended up tying a leftover stylus strap to this spot between the speaker and usb-c port and it's been surprisingly comfy and helpful to grab steadily while outside

My phone is very difficult to shop cases for, so I dread replacing it, even though it's on its last legs and the kickstand broke

And my favorite otakuthon purchase but for a different reason...

Just look at him... He is perfect. If there is a god, their visage must pale in comparison to the grandiose of the energy this radiates.

Can't wait to frame it

Now for my favorite things, the moment I saw this print it spoke to my soul. Having played the original persona 3 during the end years of Jr high/ before starting high school, the themes and message really spoke to me in a deeper level, and the emotions you can feel in this are spot on

My girlfriend got me a lil zangief keychain, which is perfect because apparently I collect keychains and hadn't noticed until recently
August 12, 2025 at 11:51 PM
Got some stickers from @holosericah.bsky.social and got a hot dog card when getting a gift for my girlfriend as well.

My fav is the Allagan tomestone sticker for the opus card: I know they eventually expire, but it should be ok for a couple years at least

I completed the Yakuza stamp rally and got a bunch of stickers! Too bad I had no idea of the FF XIV one, or the marvel rivals one, or the persona one, or the fire emblem one...

Next year for sure

A col Gameboy keychain with a slot-in window so I could display a photo or a drawer or something. It includes an empty card as well as the dimensions for it which is super useful
August 12, 2025 at 11:46 PM
For the artists stuff I'll put their info card as well so if someone likes any of these they can contact em.

I've gotten a few stickers after a while so a sticker book was a good idea! Also the cool print would be neat to put in like a cabinet cube or shelf where I'd display my handhelds
August 12, 2025 at 11:45 PM
Now for the stuff I bought! A bunch of variant covers of the new Megaman X comic. I'm looking forward to get the monthly issue since I already found a comic book store nearby

So many cool things, most of my time I spent just walking around the exhibition hall looking at artists stalls. Each time I'd discover something new I hadn't noticed before.

How can ppl thing AI can possibly match the passion and energy ppl pour into their craft? It's impossible

Didn't take a lot of cosplayer pics but got a few

Learning so much about the comic industry and IPs and Capcom and even Megaman lore.

I feel for me, this panel alone was worth the otakuthon ticket

Also the writer is really passionate and a huge Megaman nerd (he knows the name of storm eagle's ship???), I'm really happy he is handling his.

Mission complete ofc
