1. Metroid: Zero Mission 1a. Metroid Fusion 1b. (SNES) Super Metroid 2. Metroid Dread 3. Star Wars Jedi: Survivor 4. (NES) Mega Man 2 Partner and I upgraded our CRT to a 24 inch one, so we've been playing a bunch of older systems on it lately. Yesterday I randomly decided to boot up Mega Man 2 and play for a while. I'd never beaten the game in one sitting, without cheats before.

Just watched the first episode, pretty fun. Seems like an updated version of Jubilee's joining of the team back in the first season of the original show. Storm sounds exactly like she did back then (which is awesome), Wolverine sounds about 98% of the way there, and Beast is pretty close as well. I know for sure those are the three original voice actors who made a return, I don't know if any others did. I'm not worried everyone sounding like I remember, since I know it's been a long time from the original, but they get a lot right for sure. Was kind of funny recognizing the voice of The Drifter from Destiny 2 as Henry Gyrich. The first two episodes are up now and I think they'll be out weekly, which kinda sucks. But on the other hand, i'm looking forward to the rest of the season.

HAP BIRF!

Akira Toriyama passes away at 68

Yeah, I didn't think about it until after I posted that this should probably get its own topic.

Nimona is who I wish I was, lol

Nimona Not sure why I waited so long to watch this, but my god was it good. I can definitely see why a lot of queer/trans people connected with it. Had me on the verge of crying quite a few times.

The Fantastic Four cast

Get on my level, I've had back pain since my 20s! But seriously, happy birthday!!! ?

Carl Weathers dies at age 76, at home in his sleep

Hey, it's my friend JONATHAN

Was?! Are you dead? ZOMBIE!

1. Metroid: Zero Mission 1a. Metroid Fusion 1b. (SNES) Super Metroid 2. Metroid Dread 3. Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Man, what a disappointment. The story was the only thing that kept me going. The puzzles suck, and it's real easy to get lost, while the holomap doesn't really make it any better. The first game had a similar map situation. Wasn't really a fan of having a sort of open hub world thing. Wasn't bad, just wasn't what I wanted. I called part of the twist before it happened, but they added one thing I didn't see coming.

WSJ: Vince McMahon Accused of Sex Trafficking by WWE Staffer He Paid to Keep Quiet (It's...it's just awful. I can't believe a human being would do these things to another person) Jesus fucking christ, what a piece of shit (no pun intended)

1. Metroid: Zero Mission 1a. Metroid Fusion 1b. (SNES) Super Metroid 2. Metroid Dread A couple weeks back I did a week of streaming, doing a Metroid "retrospective" going through the 2D games. Started on Monday showing off the first game and it's GBA remake. Tuesday was Metroid 2 on the Game Boy, and the fan remake AM2R. Wednesday was Super Metroid, along with a remixed version of that game that made the physics feel more like the later 2D games (less floaty jumps, mostly). Thursday was Metroid Fusion. Friday was finishing both Metroid Fusion and Super Metroid. My original plan for Friday was to play Metroid Dread, but I don't know where my capture card is, and in order to emulate it I would've needed a hacked Switch to get the BIOS off of, so I figured it wasn't worth the effort.

Just finished the 4th episode, probably going to watch the fifth tonight, too.

Netflix' Marvel shows are officially part of the MCU canon

Was hoping i'd be able to beat this before the new year.
