I make an Animal Crossing GMOD machinima series called Leafhaven. https://www.youtube.com/@MatthewSmart
Is RTX Ocarina of Time looking good or is it going overboard? Let's talk about it on Matthew's Game Cube. youtu.be/cMn-T8Tn2d8
The other day, I joined @reecee.bsky.social, Demeech, and Anton Retro on their fun podcast, @perkyplanetpodcast.bsky.social, to discuss the discourse surrounding Nintendo Directs and the balance between hype and responsibility. We also debate Pop-Tarts at some point. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z23l...
What does Mario Kart 8 Deluxe's recent update mean for Mario Kart World? I talk about that in the newest Matthew's Game Cube video. www.youtube.com/watch?v=TKx1...
This one hurts hard. Dolly is irreplaceable as a human being, a musician, an activist, and everything else in between. Even if you hate country music, you owe it to yourself to give Jolene a listen. It's easily one of the most pure and timeless records I've ever heard. Fly high, Mrs. Parton. 🕊️
Dolly Parton has passed away at the age of 80
Gonna bump this in case you haven't tuned in. I'm actually really proud of this discussion.
Despite what Sony wants you to believe, physical video games DO still matter, and I'm joined by @aquatwist00.bsky.social on Matthew's Game Cube to properly discuss why. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kq35...

Listen, I get it. I and everyone else are sick of soulless suits shoving AI down our throats. But when the discourse reaches a boiling point where you claim anything you don't like is AI or "worse than" AI, I genuinely start to question if you even respect art in the first place.
You know, I was heavily involved in the SMG4 space during the show's most controversial years. It led me to become a salty miserable sap about the show and said community. I finally parted ways in 2023 after a traumatic experience, and that really helped me watch the show end on a positive note.
How it feels when you see drama in a community you’re no longer part of:
Guys, I think I've cracked the NintenDeen code. If the game wasn't an instant success, it was obviously a terrible game from evil greedy Nintendo. If the game WAS a huge success, it doesn't exist because it doesn't fit my narrative. I never want to hear anyone say he's not a grifter ever again.
Why even bother trying to get your foot into the mainstream entertainment scene? Your project ends up being a massive flop? You get laid off. Your project is one of the most successful the company's ever made? You get laid off. I'm glad I never pursued this path if this is the new normal.
After making the most successful Disney movies this year, obviously Pixar employees must now face huge layoffs variety.com/2026/film/ne...
Well, in the last few weeks, when I've been away, I've made the biggest art I've ever made in all my years in Blender. [1/3]
Twitter: "Bluesky is garbage. We support free speech." The free speech in question: Anti-Semitism, ageism, racism, joke policing, and Epstein spam all from a clip of Scott The Woz saying "Wii U bad" (it is). Ah yes. Completely normal and morally acceptable behavior. Why would I ever want to leave?
At this point, I genuinely think the suits (derogatory) just keep doing this because they know they can and they take pleasure in ruining people's lives because of it. And the more these stories come out, the more I inch closer and closer to never wanting to consume any non-indie media ever again.

🚨🚨 SLIME 64 IS COMING IN 2027 🚨🚨 It's a retro-inspired 3D collect-a-thon platformer with an emphasis on exploration and schmoovement. Play as elemental slimes who combine their powers, collect Bells & Whistles, and take down a robotic enterprise threatening the world!
I've been through the 5 stages of grief with all the news about the industry lately and I'm calmly calling it quits. I'll still be around playing physical media but when even Nintendo backs out I'll sit back and enjoy what 40+ years of talented people have already made youtu.be/Xq3aO9CNtlg

The one time I watch a World Cup game in full, and U.S.A. fumbles the bag so hard you'd think you were watching people from the retirement home playing. 🥀
So if you wanna support some cool games that WEREN'T made by a soulless corporation, this 7 game bundle is active for 2 more days for only $15. You paid Sony billions to treat you like dirt. Now go pay these guys for their good games, or I'll send pipe bombs to your house. itch.io/b/3757/indie...

You know, maybe this is really easy for me to say since I got my dream game in Kirby Air Riders last year. But given the direction we're heading down, the Switch 2 might genuinely be the last modern console I ever buy. And as sad as this sounds, part of me is okay with that.
"It was inevitable" "Been saying this for years" "I'm all digital anyway" Please leave. This will mean fewer options for consumers, more control for publishers, and a huge part of gaming culture vanishing just like that You can still buy physical movies. You will not be able to buy physical games

Mina the Hollower is $20. I just thought someone needed to hear that today. 🙂
Was the Nintendo Direct last week genuinely good, or did Miyamoto spite me specifically? Find out on the new Matthew's Game Cube video. www.youtube.com/watch?v=fAYB...
I won't bog this image down with all the stuff I don't care about. But I think there's just enough here to keep me fed for a good bit, and in the case of Kingdom Hearts, for generations.
