I am in Japan
-
-
My goals for this trip:
- Locate and buy a used 1981 "Epoch Cassette Vision"
- Do not sink time into following developments in, or writing social media threads about, the United States election (I am not saying this is inherently a bad thing but it is simply not what I should be doing right now)
If I do this right expect this account to consist of pretty much photos for the next month

I am moved to tears by the size of this thing

I told Grandma, I hate Grandma's stupid pies. I didn't want that.
-
Okay I asked and apparently Mastodon wants to see what the Japanese Laserdisc cover for "Barbarella" looks like. (In my opinion: This is a very good piece of packaging.)
PS what is this second movie
-
Went to a Japanese arcade and was expecting to come out complaining about how everything's rhythm games now but instead I'm walking out just super impressed with the high production values on these incredibly polished rhythm games with compelling mechanical concepts
Also: all the games feature music by Toby Fox. Good for him!

There is also a "Bomberman Girls" now which is a mildly MOBA ish capture the flag Bomberman but everyone is a sexy anime girl. The basic game design concept rules but every part of the execution fails (horrible analog stick that hurts your hands, shockingly low framerate given the simple graphics, map design that bunches everyone up on one square) and the cheesecake is creepy where it should be hot (especially given some of the characters look very young but get the same sexy poses/"gaze" D:)

Wait wait WAIT what is this and why does it have a light pen

I got a "Danger: Object Class Keter" shirt with a little SCP Foundation logo at the bottom in an intentionally overlarge size to wear as a sleep shirt. Sleepy Keter girl
