I run a blog where I review all the games I play. Here's a nice alphabetical list of every game including YouTube playlists/playthroughs of every game (no commentary) insidegn.wordpress.com/thoughts-on-...

Just finished mastering every Sesame Street game on RetroAchievements, because why the hell not? #retroachievements #retrogaming

I'm coming out of my shell to give this brief statement: If you can't get a hold of Kitasan Black, go for Sakura Bakushin O. She's about as equal ̷(̷A̷ ̷b̷i̷t̷ ̷s̷t̷r̷o̷n̷g̷e̷r̷ ̷a̷c̷t̷u̷a̷l̷l̷y̷)̷ in power as Kitasan Black. Thank you for your time. #umamusume #gacha #gambling

I found this small snippet of DDR in one of my old game design books from college (sometime between 2004 and 2005). I've been addicted to this amusing diversion for over 20 years!

Man, it's been 23 days since I last posted. Here's what I've been up to. Completing every Beatmania game on RetroAchievements (so far). #retro #rhythmgaming #retroachievements #beatmania

I miss the days when normies were not on the internet.

After a grueling grind for the final achievement in Oha Suta, I have officially Hardcore Mastered every DDR on the PS1. #retroachievements #retrogaming #rhythmgaming #ddr #dancedancerevolution

You know what's going to happen next, right? The next Fortnite live event is going to be an in-game concert featuring Hatsune Miku and the rest of the Vocaloid gang. I'm calling it right now!

I've been on a DDR push lately. I'll probably eventually finish all the PS1 titles soon (still have 3 more games) and then I've got one Game Boy, one N64, and one GameCube game before the mother load that is the PS2 games... #retroachievements #retrogaming #ddr #dancedancerevolution #rhythmgames

There's a lot of titles not listed here, but that just goes to show you how big the genre is, especially in the mobile department.

As greedy as game companies have become the last few years, I'm shocked they haven't returned to the arcade industry. They can charge customers $1+ per play and make millions off just about anyone, and the accessibility can be as easy as finding a Starbucks! Just saying!

Anybody know how I can record my score on the Konami website for 2025? Got a new "RANKING 4" course record in DDR 3rd Mix! 🤣

If you understand the horrors of original DDR timing, then you can appreciate the insanity of getting a PFC on Trip Machine...

What if I told you this famous Kpop song by Girls' Generation is 16 years old today? And you want to talk about feeling old?! 👴

A good read, especially for vtuber fans! I've seen the concert and goods prices and they're absolutely absurd! Do be aware of your spending habits, please!!

This is how we celebrated New Years in America.

Happy New Year Fellow East Coasters!

Its been 25 years since Americans freaked out about the "Y2K bug" in which computers with only 2 digits to tell the year would think we went from 1999 to 1900 and cause a lot of crashes. Also the oldest Gen Z are slowly approaching their 30's in a few years...

Hi. I might disappear for a (long) while...I got video games to play...l8r #finalfantasy #jrpg #shmups #espgaluda #mushihimesama #dodonpachi #retrogaming #retro #nintendoswitch #gaming

I guess I'm not your average Steam user. What a surprise. 😮

I don't usually play a whole lot of games on my Switch, but when I play...I PLAY! lol

Tokyo Xtreme Racer mastered! It can certainly be frustrating at times because of the weird af physics and little room for error. But once you figure out all the cheese and mobility, it's not too bad. #retrogaming #sega #dreamcast #retroachievements

Happy 7th birthday to this image

I recall PAX East 2013 they had a GuitarFreaks machine and some kid walks by, points to it, and says "Guitar Hero ripoff" GuitarFreaks first released in 1999 Guitar Hero first released in 2005 (Not to mention GuitarFreaks is a lot harder to master than Guitar Hero, but let's not tell him that)

I humbly request that starting in 2025, we end the mention of "that site" and sharing posts and drama forming from that site. Doing that makes bluesky no better than them, and it's already showing...

Let me remind you whose vote counts in all of this. None of these people even know what a vtuber is, which is why Pekora didn't win. There was no shot. I knew if it wasn't Pekora, it was going to be Caseoh, so him winning wasn't a surprise to me at all. Pekora wins the popular vote, always!

The Game Awards (2023) - 10 million views Golden Joystick Awards (2024) - 117K views DICE Awards (2024) - 18k-IGN, 4.5k-AIAS Which awards show would you prefer watching? #thegameawards #goldenjoystick #diceawards

I just finished watching the documentary for the deleted boss "Selph/Self" in NiGHTS into Dreams. I seriously believe finding a prototype version of this game will be just as huge as the Sonic 3 or Sonic 1 prototypes! #nightsintodreams #sonicteam #segasaturn #retrogaming

Anyone who's ever played the original Tokyo Xtreme Racer on the Dreamcast might find some satisfaction in this replay that I just pulled off 🤣

Top 30 Playstation games of all time according to Japanese gamers. I can vouch for a lot of these heavy hitters. Arc the Lad is a bit of a surprise for me as I don't think that game was too popular in the US.

So this is a real ad, apparently?

Can we go back to calling games "good", "great", "awesome", and not "peak"? Idk, the word has lost all its meaning being so overused to describe every single great video game that's out there.

And here they are now appearing on my feed. It's only two, but soon it will be 200...

Maybe it's been answered before and I missed it, but why do people take jobs in the gaming industry and then publicly shame gamers and express their hatred for them? Like...why not work in the movie industry? Or Animate cartoons? Maybe games pay more, but why work for an audience you don't like?

Here's my Spotify Wrapped! 😎

Evolution 2 FINALLY mastered! I did take some time off in between sessions, but that still doesn't make the grind any less exhausting... #retrogaming #RetroAchievements

*Gets a Sega Master System instead because the NES was sold out everywhere*
