There's no way I can make a blog title like that without coming off as a bit dramatic. Just bear with me here. So I should probably note that progress on this blog was first made back in 2021. I've been trying on and off for the past c...

It would be a disservice to call 2020 a Really Bad Year. We've all had Really Bad Years in our personal lives for one reason or another. We've had years were a lot of Really Bad Things happened and everyone considers it a Really Bad Ye...

Before you post a comment in response to the title I chose, please hear me out. I promise you, it's not all bad. This blog will have been coming up on the 10th anniversary of my first blog post on this website. A site that's been aroun...

Pokemon Sword and Shield are finally here! Generation VIII has officially started, so you know what that means. Tons of new Pokemon to catch, third versions and/or remakes a year later and many fans complaining about the series’ ...

It occurs to me that, for as many blogs, quickposts and stupid comments I’ve posted on D-TOID over the years, I’ve never actually given a formal introduction of myself. Part of that may have been my fear/disgust of the gene...

Back when Super Smash Bros 4 was in development and characters were still being announced, there were several characters I wanted to be playable that didn’t make the cut. Isaac from Golden Sun, Zael from The Last Story, Waluigi, ...

I really wasn’t keen on writing about this. Jonathan Holmes asked me to write a C-Blog about this subject a couple times before. Both times, I turned the idea down. Furries already have enough of an image problem thanks to that w...

…so I’ve been busy this past week or so. Once Pokemon GO hit the Android app store, I had to download it. While I think Niantic has a fair bit to go before the app really starts getting interesting, what they have so far ...

Here's a fun fact for ya! I'm actually a fairly decent musician. Picked up the piano when I was six, the guitar when I was 14, and even wrote some of my own music every now and then. I don't have as much time to do all that ...

I’ll be honest, E3 kind of blind-sided me this year. A combination of real-life things keeping me busy and my general attitude for the trade show being significantly lowered over the years keeps me from getting excited about it ...

[Once again, this blog has been delayed a good bit thanks to intensive summer course work and my part-time job. I wanted to get this out well before E3, but life had other plans. Apologies for the delay. Please enjoy.] When I started ...

For this week’s COMMERCIALISM, I decided to do something a little different. Today, I’m going to talk about the advertisements for Psychonauts, A.K.A. one of my favorite games of all time, A.K.A. where I got that Raz avata...

Just as a disclaimer, I’ve never actually played Joust in my life. The closest I think I’ve come to playing it is Balloon Fighter on the NES. It’s kind of like Joust in the same way that Digimon is kind of like Pokem...

After spending the last few COMMERCIALISMS on Nintendo series, as well as buying the Star Fox 64 promotional VHS online, I think I’m gonna take a break from Nintendo for a while. As much as I love Nintendo commercials, there&rsq...

You didn’t think I’d forget about this little gem, did you? Noooo, I’ve been saving this one for its own COMMERCIALISM. Something this lengthy and…magnificent deserves an entire article dedicated to it. For th...

[Apologies in advance for the lateness of this C-Blog. I meant to do it a couple weeks ago, but school happened. I’m done with finals, so I should be able to do this more regularly.] So, Star Fox Zero has been out for a couple w...

When I used to write for another gaming website, I did this weekly segment where I summarized the most popular headlines on the site while talking about old video game commercials. Recently, I thought to myself 'Hey, why don't I ...

What I’m about to discuss is quite possibly the nitpickiest of nitpicks I’ve ever indulged in. By all means, I should be directing this energy into something more productive. I apologize in advance for wasting both your tim...

The other week, I found out you can make a custom 3D model of a cookie cutter online and have it printed/delivered to you. So I somehow got the idea to have a cookie cutter in the shape of Ratchet's head to make some lombax-shaped cookies. ...

Earlier today, Yacht Club Games announced the release dates for the Shovel Knight amiibo, as well as giving a preview of the new features this amiibo has. Many people are still upset about the fact that co-op multiplayer is A) exclusi...

Super Mario Maker has finally been released to the public. It seemed to garner favorable reviews from both critics and fans upon release, and there’s already a plethora of cool, interesting stages that have been upload...

So, Nintendo and Yacht Club Games announced that a Shovel Knight amiibo will officially be a thing. What's more, the amiibo is made specifically for the Wii U and 3DS versions of Shovel Knight instead of Smash Bros, making this o...

Back when I wrote for Operation Rainfall, I did a guest piece on my favorite Smash Bros character, Roy. I’d like to take this opportunity to explain my attachment to Roy in more detail here. In my old piece, I stated that I didn&...

I’m friends with a play-tester that works for Nintendo of America. They just finished shooting the Nintendo Direct for this region and he was able to watch the whole thing before they air it tomorrow afternoon. I’m not goin...

Amiibo as a concept seems to be a very divisive one. On the one hand, there are those who love the Amiibo figures for giving their games some extra functionality. Others despise the concept of them outright because the very idea of ha...

That would take a lifetime to complete. The college school year is starting to wrap up for some of us, including myself. Now we have a few months of time to do other things. I myself will spend a good chunk of the time working for the sum...

Hey, do you like the Super Mario series? Do you despise Angry Birds because it's a mobile game, even though it's just as good as Tetris? Then boy do I have a story for you! Joystiq reports that in an interview with Edge Magazine, Shigeru...

Oh, look at that. I have free time again. Hooray for college breaks! When you�re a kid, Christmas is the absolute best time of the year. You�re surrounded by a family that loves you, school�s out, it�s snowing outside, there's holiday spec...

�I have a dream.� Those were the famous words that Martin Luther King Jr. gave at the during his speech, in which he dreamed about a world where people, both black and white, live together in harmony. It�s a shame he couldn�t be around to s...

So, Zone of the Enders is getting an HD collection. I should've put that on my first wishlist so that after it was revealed, I could put on a turban and pretend to be a psychic from that point on. It'd be like that TV show Psych, except wit...
