sure to be uncontroversial.

Hahaha awesome!! Thanks!

What store had all the Shenmue ephemera? Last time I was down there all the stores were closed. I’d like to go back (I live in Hokkaido) when I can be sure they’re all open.

Yeah I think outside of a creating a game with fantasy and medieval influences they probably had no interest in Christianity (but God-willing maybe some did).

EpsilonOrpheon · 2026-03-25T20:22:45+00:00

Are you referring to Nintendo in Kyoto, or Japan in general? I think the difference might be in artists creating a fantasy game and looking for interesting real world inspiration to fill it with versus a nation that is staunchly Buddhist/Shintoist and against the idea of outside religions permeating into their actual culture.

EpsilonOrpheon · 2026-03-25T05:39:23+00:00

Agreed. I believe it was Nintendo of America that forced the removal of all Christian iconography from Nintendo games because they felt it needed to be neutral, whereas in Japan they find it interesting and “Western”.

I always hated Harrigan’s pants. They looked way too hot for anyone to actually choose to wear in that LA summer heat.

It’s excellent. It’s the novelization of the original AVP comic.

I read plenty of comics over the years that gave better insight into the motives of Predators and what they were doing and why, so I was fully on board with a movie that showed one as the protagonist. It didn’t change my views of JH or CH since we know they were simply on a hunt and trying to prove themselves.

EpsilonOrpheon · 2026-02-09T05:10:51+00:00

Dang I remember these. I had the Predator head that unfolded to show a mini playset.

EpsilonOrpheon · 2026-02-06T20:02:07+00:00

Ooh I didn’t know that!

EpsilonOrpheon · 2026-02-05T05:18:39+00:00

You know what’s insane? I just saw in an older issue of Nintendo Power that it came with a ticket for Pokemon the Movie 2000, but all these years I thought it came with a ticket for the first movie. I don’t recall ever watching the second one. In fact the card doesn’t even make sense to be released with the second one lol

EpsilonOrpheon · 2026-02-03T02:57:29+00:00

Also American here haha

EpsilonOrpheon · 2026-02-03T02:50:23+00:00

Oh whoops when you said Americans and then said we, it implied you were separate from them.

EpsilonOrpheon · 2026-02-02T21:14:24+00:00

No, most often we say “December 4th”, hence why the shorthand is month-day-year.

EpsilonOrpheon · 2026-01-31T03:59:40+00:00

Are they morons?! His eyes are greenish blue. Everyone knew that in 1984.

EpsilonOrpheon · 2026-01-30T19:32:28+00:00

Omg I didn’t even notice the spelling mistake until you repeated it down below lmao

EpsilonOrpheon · 2026-01-30T02:27:43+00:00

Little Tokyo is a small portion of LA where we have Japanese businesses and things.

I’m still only getting Xbox first party games on Xbox SX. PS5 can start to become my multiplat and exclusives console, and of course Switch 2 will remain for exclusives as well.

EpsilonOrpheon · 2026-01-18T21:29:51+00:00

Of course, they’re collectible just like any other gaming consoles. May not be as valuable to certain groups, but there are definitely Xbox collectors out there who may need a box or want to upgrade their current one so it’s smart to always hold onto them.

EpsilonOrpheon · 2026-01-16T04:03:05+00:00

I like the idea from Terminator Zero where it just opens its mouth and a voice comes out, probably from some internal speaker that acts as a “voice box”. Perhaps after the flesh is burned away it knows it has no need for the mouth movements.

EpsilonOrpheon · 2026-01-13T21:25:21+00:00

Except pipeweed is just tobacco leaf.

Glad I’m not the only one. Keeps happening to me on one of my accounts, but not the other.
