30s. Strategy games, art I like, and personal ramblings. That Silver Surfer picture is one of my favorite images of all time. Any pronouns are fine.

So in Digimon lore, Gabumon isn't really a mammal, but a reptile who wears a Garurumon pelt because it inspires him. If that's the case... then does Weregarurumon wear pants for a similar reason? Was his idol Billy Jeans?

The MVPs in my Cai War run were all varied. Every single map for Dietrich route? Esmeralda, Esmeralda, Esmeralda. I thought she was supposed to be speedy at first since she kept doubling everything. Turns out she's a tank. A tank who kept leveling speed and did NOT STOP.

At least once a month I think about the Bionic Commando reboot and how that games big plot twist was "your robot arm was your wife the whole time!" It's never explained how, why or what it even means for her. They turned his wife into a robot arm. You now have all the information we do.

Okay I joked about it, but the start of Leda's route really does feel a bit like Fire Punch. Leda is Agni, Mu is a combo of Sun/Neneto, Sirocco is Togata and Buccar is the only sane person so he can't be a Fire Punch character.

I am so sorry Fianna, for chucking Giant Rocks at you every turn I could in the Theodora vs Talimun arena match. You were frail and died in one shot, and then came back, only to be immediately slain by Man's first projectile. You gave a bunch of EXP every time though.

Many games for the GameCube use only a fraction of the storage capacity of the disc. I have analyzed the data to determine what the maximum number of retail Mario games that can fit on a single disc would be, creating the Luigi & Wario + Puzzle + Rhythm Maximum Value Pack.

A GameCube disc has a storage capacity of 1.46 gigabytes. Many Mario games use only a fraction of that storage. Below is the optimal distribution of the smallest Mario-related games on the system to fit 6 entire retail games on a single disc.
Unused space 54 MB
Luigi's Mansion 186 MB
DDR Mario Mix 264 MB
Wario World 257 MB
Donkey Konga 2 312 MB
Donkey Konga 250 MB
Please note that this pie chart is for data visualization only. If the games were in fact put on one disc, the data would be arranged in rings, not in slices.
Concept for post based on an idea from a comment by @vinchvolt.bsky.social

I don't know if they intended this or not, but the way Halvin stares at you if you talk to her while she's juggling is one of the funniest things in the game to me. I affectionately call her Bobo the Fool.
