I was browsing foods and I had no words on this Also you didn't have to translate this, we all know what tofu is

I woke up to be told I sound old I mean I am older (presumably than the person who said this) but also damn 😅

I guess I will have my 3DS on me during TGS Rushing through Alpha Sapphire and Ultra Sun once again Street pass me if you dare

I've been informed of the current "people ruining things" have moved into BEYBLADES people scalping Beyblades in 2026 was absolutely not on my bingo card Also didn't know there were NEW Beyblades in 2026 Verdict: I didn't know jack shit about 2026

So @hunty.biz wants to make a bug action game with stats and the potential builds are terrifying He started going down the rabbit hole with a mantis build And this all because he discovered spiders in Japan have higher evasion stats and they jump like a mofo Help

As I put the finishing touches to my talk for #developbrighton, I'm looking for stories from developers, of the most exceptional or outlandish things that players have done to show their love for your game. Was it unhinged fan art, multi-volume fanfic, tattoos, themed weddings..?! #gamedev

I'm at the who is who on my friends list phase of my gaming lifetime It's the unique but vague enough names and like the straight first name accounts that's like giving me the most "uhhhhhh which one are youu" Like which Mike is MIKE

Looking through the lists, I think of people I've encountered and I hope they're doing alright and then I see someone I will never remove off my friends list because they're no longer in this world. I hope folks remember something nice when they see my name or I guess something ridiculous

Its been years of writing a draft, attempting to write something dumb or something about video games and then the news timeline I read makes me stop and close the app. Well today, I am here to complain about the new day light savings thing. Please world, get it together.

Finally back in Japan and everyone is home It was very nice to see folks at DICE, I know I missed a bunch of folks during an extremely busy week 🥲 Grateful to be surrounded by talented and wonderful peers, thanks everyone for being so nice

I’ll be at DICE next month, who else am I seeing and how many Animal Crossing Godiva tins am I packing in my suitcase?

I’m ease dropping two dudes talk about hollywood gossip (in Japanese!) at the waiting room Dude is telling the other guy to watch Seven and he literally spoils the plot in the next sentence WHYYYY

I also had my dog with me cause she was BORED and tired of being home She has changed her mind, home is nice

Everyone's goty list are pretty much stacks of games I've bought and managed to play a few hours at best, still sealed/unplayed at worst 🥲 2025 was long execution and heavy planning the whole time but I think I made it out alright 😅

Like it's one thing moving internationally to a country you're so familiar but also so foreign Another thing when you first get there it's hot as heck, but then by the time your belongings get to you it's cold as heck and you were "getting by" with what you can fit in a suitcase TSA destroyed

There isn't a good comparison with distance and optimization, I just bought a box stuffed it full of cookie tins and cookie boxes and sent it overnight to my cousin and it cost me like 1200 yen Man I def paid more to send a box full of candy and it took like 3-5 days in America

My Dad said I'm not a good enough student to be a scientist or an architect and I play too much games to do any serious work So I make video games as a grown up job and I ask people to never take me too seriously

What’s the lore behind choosing your career path ?

I got to my new home and within 10 minutes, I slid and fell the last few steps of the stairs 🥲 Bruised my elbows and my butt hurts STILL SURVIVED

The first game I pre-ordered in years and the first one to pre-order & pick up in Japan will be Silent Hill f I will have no furniture in my home but a fresh copy of Silent Hill

My new neighbors will just see a creepy projection on the windows in a previously vacant house as I rig up a portable projector and my PS5 right up in a dark tatami room with no lights Oh yeah I'm gonna be setting an impression

I see folks are going to Japan for TGS Well, I literally move into my new home in Japan during TGS If folks are still in town after hit me up 😅 (My dog is coming with me)

I’m getting my keys in my new home in Japan today 🥹 We’ll see if the electric department turned on my lights ⚡️ (Or lola has no AC during the heatwave)

Just hung out with my 94 year old aunt and all she did was roast my Dad While leaving she was joking my dad got lost on his way back the other day "Good think trash day is tomorrow, just leave him out if he's too dumb to make it back. At least someone will pick him up" She's so savage

I’ve been at the airport for over 12 hours lol The same guy keeps coming by to collect trash and I swear he looked at me and was like “still here huh?” And I’m like eyyyyyyyyyy I officially ran out of flight options for them to delay 😅

Japan Friends: can y'all do me a favor and grab a copy of this free promo booklet at stores later this month? (Assuming game stores or like Yodobashi) Also play the game, try not to get got by a friend ✨

I'm curious what PS2 games you liked/loved that likely wouldn't be on those ps2 game lists Like I get it, folks played FFX and MGS3 Games I'm marking to check out: Steambot Chronicles, Magic Pengel (Graffiti Kingdom), Otostaz, Okage, I am Small, Flower, Sun and Rain

I love hearing people talking about games they liked, what they found interesting or fun - even if no one else shared that experience (I mean its rewarding when you find like minded folks)
