Fan of the San Francisco Giants, video games, pinball, the Beatles, bowling, and MST3K. I may be old, but at least I played in arcades.
I was quite thrilled to get an updated version of RCR for a portable console, but for some reason I don’t remember the “used GameStop game cover” artwork for it. I guess I was too conditioned to it at the time.

It feels like I’m still trying to get caught up on things after California Extreme on Saturday. It feels like I’ve missed out on a lot since I haven’t been on social media very much since then. I also have to keep telling myself that a break from social media is a good thing.
Yes, California Extreme was a blast as usual. Lots of new and old arcade and pinball was had, much rare stuff was seen and played, and now it’s time for the drive back home. At least Bay Area traffic is dead at this hour.
I guess I got enough sleep, because California Extreme 2026 is well underway!
Tomorrow is California Extreme, the arcade/pinball show where I plan to attend the entire day from 10AM to 1:30AM for max admission value. I also have to work tonight until midnight meaning I’ll only get 4-5 hours of sleep for the 90 minute drive to the Bay Area. Yay!!! I’ll have fun if it kills me!
What if new MST3K, but this time they got the band back together? It’s sooner than you think!

Also, I would’ve liked to have seen Heliot Ramos and Aaron Judge as teammates, just not like this.
As expected, the Giants were sellers at the deadline and there were players I didn’t want to go get traded, but the prospects we got seem promising. And we still have Devers. Giants fans are used to having lefty sluggers who don’t open up to the press.
So I decided to fire up Arcade Archives: Qix and I just finished a game where I got 54,312 points…
Finally robbed a home run in MLB The Show 26! It made the blowout that much less severe, though.
The Beatles: Rock Band was my first ever rhythm game, for what should be obvious reasons. A shame my reflexes were barely up to snuff for hard difficulty and have gone downhill since. Nonetheless, the game was still a blast to play. It’s just a shame Revolver was never available as DLC.

Unfortunately my Transformers skills disappeared in the final four, but 4th place in a field of sixteen isn’t anything to sneeze at. And as is customary, I blow up a machine (Pokémon Pro) after I get eliminated. That’s the way it works.
I qualified for the playoff rounds. Trying my best to take one of these trophies home!
I’m glad the Giants finally won again, but shouldn’t the final score be 6-8 since Devers hit the bases loaded ground rule double in extras? Or did he not touch second due to celebrating? I don’t want the final score to be… I’m not saying it…
Firstly, they make a Super King size Reese’s? Secondly… share? With who? They’re all going in mah belleh!
Adames is 0-3 so far this game? When you’re in Seattle, that means it’s grand salami time! 💣🏃♂️🏃♂️🏃♂️🏃♂️

So, lettuce is the cause of explosive diarrhea? Needless to say, I don’t have explosive diarrhea.
If it wasn’t for the first inning, the NL had a fighting chance.
The starting lineups signing a gigantic document as they’re introduced, because American history. All star games deserve kitschy gimmicks like this.
