Yeah I'm with you Deathadder where I'm only semi-interested. So far this is the only part that caught my eye.

But only PC/Mobile, come on Square Enix!?!?!? If it comes to PS4 for $10 then I'm all in, especially since it will be the first time the original NES FF3 comes out here offically.

Maybe Nintendo might have something interesting to show tomorrow. Some actual gameplay from Pokemon Legends Arceus might appear out of nowhere. I'm sure Jerry will be frustrated with a Switch Pro announcement.

Probably hands down the best reveal of the show so far!

In all seriousness, so far nothing really caught my eye except that Psychonauts 2 finally has a release date of August 25th after being announced way back in December 2015.

This one might catch your eye Jerry.

What did you think of the Xbox show Deathadder? Did anything catch your eye? Want any of those Bethesda games now that Microsoft owns them? Is the presence of Jack Sparrow with actual Johnny Depp voicing him making you want to go back to Sea of Thieves? Will Nintendo finally announce Mother 3 for their first big return to E3 since 2013 tomorrow?

I thought Disney cancelled Depp because they didn't want to favor any side of that mess as to not upset their family-friendly image. I guess there weren't enough people making a fuss.

Queen Mera comes up to you hot and heavy. After hearing about what she did (like dropping a D in bed as a way of fooling around / showing how upset she was like a cat), would you? She's single and ovulating, right now. I wish I could drop gifs. All you get is this cap:

Did anyone else skim Capcom's announcements and find it underwhelming?

I found a channel which clipped a lot of trailers and segments from showcases:

Puzzle Bobble / Bust-A-Move has probably the most interesting change since they added pulleys - VR and spinning puzzles. I do wonder how you fail a puzzle.

So far the most interesting things I have seen are River City Girls Zero ( a port of a Kunio SNES game), River City Girls 2, Fatal Frame Wii U port to switch like 3 months after I fucking bought the Wii U version which honestly will probably be the best way to play it because it was built around  the gimmick controller.  I guess Plumbers Don't Wear Neck ties is kind of cool.  Anyone see the Take 2 SJW presentation.  Thank God someone is standing up for brown homosexuals to purchase product.

Nintendo's gimmicks make their consoles libraries appealing past their expiration. I wonder if the Wii U or 3/DS libraries will have an intense fanbase like that of DC in say 15 years, especially since they shipped more than the Virtual Boy. If Limited Run Games is around, maybe they will even do physical releases like they are doing for retro consoles now. LRG has Game Boy and SNES games! I've seen companies selling new DC releases too.

Anything good from Take 2? I thought it would be a bunch of GTA stuff, so I didn't even skim.

Language is evolving fast, and I think it's rude that the people it supposedly benefits expect others to know what / how to react in a comfortable manner. I was listening to a podcast the other day and the host was congratulating a person on staff for having a beautiful bouncing baby...baby. The word baby was stated twice with a pause as to purposely leave out assigning gender.

Take 2 only spoke about trans bipoc, zero games.

I spoke to my therapist, George W. Bush, and he convinced me to keep my mouth shut about Nintendo. He also accused Karl Rove of trying to murder him, so he might have been talking about another patient.

I had a good laugh about the terms of service for Limited Run Games. If only they knew that document isn't binding based on the way they wrote it. Have you've seen that garbage? I honestly don't know if they are actually licensed to sell games on those platforms. That is how sus the website presents itself. They do nothing to separate themselves from Alibaba.

I've searched several of their products and they aren't showing up on GameStop or BestBuy. Those are supposedly Trusted Partners as stated on the company's website, yet they don't carry any product?

I was reminded how far gayming has fallen. I feel like I've taken crazy pills.

The highlights of this year's E3:

Resident Evil whores itself out to Dead By Daylight.

Breeders of the Nephelym gets a 2022 release date for Steam. It's Corruption Of Champions in Unity. Guard your sanity before trying to research the game. It's not fit for humans.

Still no reason to Switch to any modern console. I consider that to be news.

Something to highlight: The Switch is such a baby's toy, they already have a Switch emulator fully working on modern flagship smartphones. SMART PHONES. I saw somebody play Res Evil 6 on a $300 smartphone and getting mid 50 fps. It was cray-cray.

I was a PC guy before it was cool. I almost immediately figured out that a console was just a PC with fewer features. I didn't understand DOS as a wee lad, so I went with the classics until 2000 when my dad gave me his business laptop. Got hella lucky thanks to other families giving me a NES, then SNES a year later, and finally a Genesis the year after that (back when my uncle Paul still had a soul.)

I do wonder from time to time how my privileged upbringing shaped my taste in games. If I was stuck playing the same NES and SNES games longer than I did, would I go full Ninten-tard? I shutter to imagine an Alex that recites the glory of Mario Mario and Luigi Mario.

- Quick note: CF has been messing around with some Mario editing tools. He did some basic renaming, but I think you'll enjoy the memes I suggested to him. "Thanks Spaghet! but your cannoli is in another castle!"
