Bad art is a necessary step to making good art, and all artists were bad until they weren't. Very few come out of the womb with a Cintiq stylus in their hand.

Please don't ever stop creating things.
I responded to this message same day, and have yet to hear back yet.

Please let me know if there's a better contact method to get ahold of somebody who can resolve this issue.
Have messaged you here to help

For weeks, I have been trying to get ahold of somebody about my missing order, including this email address.

Is there a customer support phone number, or a better way to get in touch to resolve this?
Are you missing an order?

Our new dedicated in-house support and distribution team (Carol and Louise) will put it right.

The year is 2035

TV shows are no longer the robust 8-episode series that they once were

Entire seasons have been condensed down into one single 90 minute episode

Films, however, are now 5.5 hours on average

I would love to see private notes on Bluesky. I've used this constantly in larger Discord servers to help remember [username] is actually [preferred IRL name], and would love to see this hit the platform.

In a surprising announcement, yesterday's Nintendo Direct revealed Metroid Ravenous - a reference to Samus Aran being a longtime fan of the Baltimore Ravens.

As much focus as the Ocarina of Time remake's visuals are getting, I think the lack of meaningful changes are a bigger deal to me.

Not that it needed to be a complete BotW style refresh, but something to justify why it was remade beyond a contentious coat of paint.

If you're on the fence about going to see Coyote vs Acme in theaters, I recommend doing so.

There's something amazing about being able to see a movie that was once going to be buried as a tax write off.

But the movie, itself, is excellent.

Another Crab's Treasure is an excellent game which absolutely deserved this Switch 2 update.

Check it out if you haven't already!

Reminder that publishers said the same thing when consoles first started doing digital distribution.

Still waiting for those prices to go down.
Killing PlayStation discs could make PS Store games cheaper, according to a former Square Enix exec

The Retroid Pocket Nova is getting some fantastic positive coverage

120Hz 4:3 OLED screen is a great selling point already, but having the power behind it for GameCube, PS2, and Wii emulation, plus even Windows games, makes it a compelling handheld.

I would really like to see a Switch 2 patch for Another Crab's Treasure. They built a fantastic world and it would be great to see it running at higher specs.

$1000 is a lot of money, but comparing Steam Machine 1:1 with existing consoles misses the forest for the trees

While the Switch 2 feels like an objective upgrade over the Switch 1 hardware in nearly every way, nothing will replace how I felt playing it.

Try to tell 9 years ago me "Yeah well the screen isn't that great and the processor is old" and I'll just be like 👍 and go back to playing open world Zelda

I keep seeing new crazy PS Vita ports and it warms my heart that people are still doing stuff with Vitas

Really taking that "Never Stop Playing" slogan seriously

Very curious about performance. My PC runs circles around the Switch 2 hardware, but my framerate is all over the place.

Respect getting a game north of 100GB on other platforms to fit on a cartridge though

PROTIP:

Cuphead is technically a MegaTen game, because you traverse a land of monsters and magic so you can kill the devil

Game Idea: Basically Cuphead but with Dark Souls bosses

90% of the game is level-by-level boss rush, buying different weapons and abilities, etc

10% you're just a lil guy doing platforming levels and mini-games

I am disappointed to keep seeing new authors self-publishing books with AI covers

The obv ethical issues aside, it calls into question whether you actually wrote your own book or whether AI did

And some of the covers turn out so bad because AI has no concept of taste or composition like artists do

Making console exclusives again is a good start for Xbox, but for them to truly succeed, they're gonna need:

1. more Viva Piñata games

End of list.

Some people are asking "Why don't companies want to launch in November around GTA6? All the big companies are moving their release dates, and not everybody will want to play it..." etc, etc.

Here's why:

Alabaster Dawn's visuals scratch such a specific itch for me.

PS1/N64 had similar 2D-in-3D thing going for some games, but this is reading more like Nintendo DS to me.

I hope the Backrooms movie has people actually suddenly glitching into the backrooms, instead of the usual movie thing where the lights kind of flicker for a sec and then they're somewhere different.

One of the key bits of lore that I enjoyed was taking video game logic and applying it to real life

Marathon's art direction is so gorgeous that I wish I wanted to play it.
