Damn, sorry to hear your blog got lost - I'm guessing it's still there, you just couldn't see it. I just pushed a site update that let's you paginate through your drafts, so check out your dashboard and see if you can find it now using the paginator.

I like the Solitaire games with progression elements as far as card games go. Unless they're fantasy card games. I like those. But, I'll have to watch a trailer of the Switch version just to see what it is.

I don't see PixlTalk on Spotify where I listen to podcasts right now, but I just subscribed to the youtube channel (not sure why I hadn't before). I'll check it out during a game session when I usually watch youtube.

I'm deep into Sonic's All-Stars Racing Transformed and haven't had a silly thought. I'm too absorbed by it, however, I did redo my avatar so I could race with it. I put a BattleBlock Theater head on it with a top hat. So that's pretty silly. I'm pretty serious about doing everything in the game though 'cause I like it so much.

Yeah sorry if I didn't label my podcast blog correctly. You might have to show me how to do that since I can be a big dummy sometimes.

But if you haven't yet, I hope you get a chance to listen to my newest podcast, as it's a pretty special one.

This coming week around Thursday-ish, I plan to post my "Cary's Best Games of 2026 SO FAR" blog, so if you have any suggestions on how I should label that or whatever, please let me know.

Hey I reviewed that Pipistrello and the Cursed Yo-Yo game last year!

Yeah it's not a fun time to be a gamer right now. The Sony thing doesn't affect me much now, since I don't even have a PS5. But I know eventually even Nintendo will go all digital. So I don't know what I'll do yet. Maybe I'll just stick to Switch 2, maybe I'll just go digital and be grumpy about it, maybe I'll find a new hobby, or maybe I'll just play nothing but SNES games. All are possible. Only thing I know right now is I'm going to go where the fun is.

I think all my good memories are one of my favorite parts of reviewing games for so long. Thanks for listening!

I've never played the Clubhouse Games on the DS, but I did get the Switch one. It's pretty neat.

Oh you know my brain is ALWAYS in 'Silly Mode' when I'm playing video games. Keep in mind who I recently married. :)

Let's be honest, even if tech was as cheap as it used to be, Nintendo wouldn't make a console/handheld that is up to snuff with whatever their competitors make.

400 kaizo rom hacks played is wild lol, but yeah I can see how some gamers would lose themselves in that scene because it calls to their gaming needs more than what is commercially available.

Love the short form publication idea.

Fun fact: Star Fox 64 was the only mainline SF made in-house by Nintendo.

SF SNES: Argonaut Software

SF Assault: Namco

SF Zero: Platinum

SF NS2: Velan Studios

I'm honestly wanting to play Assault on NSO Gamecube. And I think they should have given Zero another chance as well.

Yay for silly moments! 😁 Can’t say that I’ve had any silly moments recently. I’ve been all in playing Sea of Stars. That game has a decent sense of humor but it hasn’t been ME being silly

The struggle of working together has lead to some tense, angry moments but the highs have been really high

I would be interested to know which parts of the soundtrack are by which composer because I actually think the soundtrack is one of the weaker parts about this game. The main battle music is fine but what else did Yasunori Mitsuda compose? In general I find battle music to be a weaker suit for him compared to, say, town or overworld music. I recently played through the creepy water tower and snowy mountain parts of the game and I thought the music in those places in particular was a pretty big miss that did not fit the mood of the visuals. That’s a relatively small complaint and hasn’t hampered my overall enjoyment of the game but I’m surprised by it.

Fun podcast! You've got lots of good memories.

I think the Trine games look amazing. I can never get through them though but I'm going to keep trying.

So far so good.

Thanks for all your hard work. The site looks great!

It'll be interesting to see how MS responds to the Sony announcement, but I fear everything is inevitably going full digital this new generation. I'm going to be very tentative in my purchases going forward.

Zero was a bit rough, i didn't care for the controls at all. It was especially a shame because I love Platinum, but that didn't turn out how I'd hoped.

It really did come out great. I was excited the instant I saw it and I couldn't be happier with how it turned out. Here's to hoping for more adventures with the Star Fox crew.

Yeah Sea of Stars is great. Definitely has Chrono Trigger vibes. Did you know that the music composer for Chrono Trigger also did some music for Sea of Stars, too? Like the main battle theme.

Speaking of classic games like that, I just beat The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales. Holy cow that game is so good. Let's just say it's going to get very high marks when I do my GOTY SO FAR blog next week.

Star Fox isn't one of my favorite Nintendo franchises, but I don't hate it. I got the new Switch 2 remake and have been enjoying it so far. I'm just not very good at Star Fox! I just beat the super easy path this morning. Peppy is my favorite. He's awesome. The new game is at least way better than Star Fox Zero, which I thought was one of Nintendo's worst games they ever made.

I enjoyed Star Fox NS2 a lot. Looks and sounds great, and the gameplay is spot-on. I also bought the original SF64 back in 1997.

I've only really been traveling over the past few years. For a long time, I basically only traveled between Arizona and Oklahoma to see family. I did go to Mexico a few times, but that's because it's only.a four hour drive from my home to Puerto Penasco (Rocky Point).
