Lots of great stuff in the direct, I am excited for a lot, but then Legend of Mana guys. Legend of Mana. Square has just been rereleasing all their old obscure games and I will never not buy them.

In order not to be disappointed by tomorrows direct, here is what I will go in expecting: Smash character will be Inteleon, they'll announce a (very limited) physical switch cart of NES Zelda for Zelda 35th, and paid DLC for Animal Crossing and that's it

I almost missed #dragontoid and I don't think I would have forgiven myself. To contribute something, here is the alternate color variant of my profile dragon, drawn by our very own Inquisitive Ravenclaw.

So I think I've found a new personal hero.

I played Among Us with proximity chat and the game has never been more fun. Specifically because we had on that imposters can hear ghosts, and every time I died I would just serenade the imposters with various songs I remember from the 90s.

Took the plunge and got Ring Fit Adventure. I am much more like Ina than Gura and existence is pain.

Today is incredibly historic for all the wrong reasons. It's important to know what is happening, but you don't need to doom scroll twitter. Please reach out to someone if today's events are negatively affecting your mental health.

For some reason this was recommended to me today. Merry Christmas! I hope you've all had a great day and here's hoping next year is better.

Honestly this song might be my favorite part of Sephiroth's inclusion. I adore this remix.

He has a shirtless alt

It's a little late, but December's Band of Bloggers is up with the theme of Unfinished Business, maybe go check it out if you could.

Beat Demon's Souls. Only played like half an hour of the original, so I can't compare the artstyles of the two versions, but I loved it. Video unrelated.

Happy Birthday Seymour!

TWEWY Sequel! I can't believe it! I brushed that countdown off as nothing important, but it was a sequel!

Astro's Playroom has loads of references to playstation games, but this one warmed my heart the most.

I've played Kingdom Hearts Theatrhythm since it came out yesterday and just finished the story. I love it, but I'm in the intersection of a ven diagram of rhythm game fans and Kingdom Hearts fans, so that's no surprise. A few more thoughts in the comments

T-there's a Hatsune Miku kickstarter happening. They need to raise funds to have a virtual concert.

Best Buy seem to have finally caught on to what they did and have moved my PS5 pickup from the 10th to the 12th. I guess I should have seen that coming.

Best Buy just sent me an email to schedule my PS5 pickup and they let me schedule it for the 10th, so I guess I'm getting my PS5 two days early.

Nintendo announcing the Fire Emblem localization like we didn't already get the DS Remake. A remake which is still available to the three of us who still have their Wii U plugged in.

So Asia is getting a physical version of Final Fantasy 9 on Switch and the box art is hilarious.

I was playing Among Us with some family and friends and after a few games almost everyone decided to change their names.

So this is a thing that has happened

YouTube, why would you think I would be interested in a video complaining about inclusive pronouns in video games? What in my watch history prompted this recommendation? I don't understand.

When people first started seriously asking for Steve I hated the idea, but then I got everything I ever wanted in Smash and softened to it. The look on my nephew's face when I told him Minecraft was in Smash was worth it all.

So I think Steve broke Twitter

Best Buy just sent me an email with "Our Apologies" in the subject line and I thought my PS5 preorder was gone. It turns out they sent out an email in error to some people recently and were apologizing for it. That was a panicked moment.

So Resident Evil is coming to Netflix

I ended up on a planet where the colors of everything changed depending on distance. Those are all the same kind of tree in the screenshot. When they were close, they were blue, and farther away they were yellow, while they go completely grey in between.

I might not have managed to get the Mario pins, but I did snag these!
