Doctor Who

but this time

an owl regeneration
"Doktah, yer a bloody owl."

"Why thank you! I have been staying up a bit later than usual!"

"No, I mean, you're literally an owl."

".....Ah, yes, that.... Look, Time Lords are... we're just weird like that, okay? You shoulda met Misterflick back on Gallifrey..... poor sod regenerated into an elephant. Couldn't even fit through his front door."

Shantae 1 on the Game Boy Color is not a good game. I don’t know if that’s a hot take or not but it just isn’t very fun.
That's actually a pretty common opinion among the community.

It's a very impressive game considering the hardware it was released on, but it's full of archaic design choices that just make it a chore to play nowadays.

The best part is this is the exact nonsense Classic Who would write into an episode and I love it.

I was having an argument with someone on Discord about life **** and his brother started yelling in the background. I'm not exactly sure what sparked him to say this but it made both of us laugh our asses off.

"You ****ing neanderthals need to understand that you cannot milk a jelly fish for jelly. Sponges from the ocean aren't used to make sponges for cleaning. Krabs is spelt c r a b s, not k r a b s, SPONGEBOB IS NOT REAL!!"
What are they talking about? Spongebob is real and we have proof!

I was listening to an Arlocast and he had Shesez from Boundry Break and AntDude on as guests and one of them (I don’t remember which) said that back in the day Capcom and Konami were like… the two kings of third party Nintendo system games and considered it a rivalry like Marvel and DC…… is that true? Like…. forgive me but I wasn’t like…. Alice in the 90s. It’s just an opinion I’ve never heard before.

It definitely hasn’t aged the best. That’s kinda why I encourage new players to skip it and go straight to Risky’s Revenge. I respect it purely on the basis of it being the first game

Like… there are so many things they could have done on the switch port to fix it up. Small stuff like zooming out the screen and deactivating lives and giving you a map on the pause screen and tying the martial arts attacks to a separate button. Like…. ROM hack level stuff.

I know you're huge on PC and emulation, so here's a neat trick. With a certain purpoise, you can get Skyward Sword HD for free!

Buy the Sponge.

/s...kinda
I could emulate it under the rules I follow: My brother owns it, lol. I could also buy it on Wii U for insanely cheaper.

I’ll still pick it up on Switch at some point ‘cause I like collecting Nintendo tho: and I wanna have it on my Switch.

I mean, I simply don't wanna pay $60 for a Wii game that's not all that amazing, but I'm too fricken lazy to bother emulating let alone download Dolphin.

I'll just wait for my old roomate to get me that as a surprise gift like he did with 3D All Stars lol.

Well I’ve been alive since 600 BC so I can verify this is indeed true.

I would be rather careful around a creature like that, you know


Countless Guilty Gear players die due to dolphin to face syndrome daily

Definitely understandable, lol.

I also kiiiinda buy these ports because, while the price is sigh inducing, I want to support the act of them at least attempting to rerelease old games in a decent state like all their rereleases are.

‘So basically:

I buy the whelming Mario 64 port on Switch, so I can say I support it.

Then I emulate the much better Render96 version on my Steam Deck lol.

That kind of thing.

Just finished watching the first episode of Jahy-sama. I think this anime is going to fill the void left by Nagatoro ending fairly well, IMO. Really cute stuff. It's pretty much a reverse isekai since Jahy ends up in the human world and has to worry about things like rent and being able to live off chump change until her next check hits. The show kinda gives off a Devil is a Part Timer vibe now that I think about it, so I'll tag my mate Dutch Raikuna Dutch Raikuna since it might be up his alley.

The Hololive ED song is pretty annoying though, and I'm not just saying that because it's Hololive.
Yeah I'm seriously considering watching it. Reminds me of Gabriel Dropout more than Part Timer to be fair.

Light fantasy slice of life anime are my slow jams.
