Akagi. Ended halfway through the Washizu arc because they caught up to the manga, now it's finally done so I'd love to see them go back and complete it.
Also from the same mangaka, Kaiji. Part 3 is the best and it's a damn shame that the anime ends right before then.
SF4 was my gateway drug into fighting games, and I've put a solid chunk of time into playing the classic titles on FightCade, but I have no interest in anything Capcom does today. Skullgirls, UNI2, and Them's Fightin' Herds are my main games.

the 3DS version
had me like "damn, where have these games been all my life? oh, mostly on things I don't own."
My save file says I got a little over three hours into the game. I think I ran the battery down to around 20% before going to bed. I did try to use a portable charger, but it still drained faster than it charged and so I decided I should save that juice for my phone. Honestly not great for a power outage situation, but under normal circumstances I'm never gonna be far from an outlet so eh.
Concentrate builds GRD, which is a sort of tug-of-war meter. Every time the circular timer in the bottom center completes, whoever has more GRD goes into a state called Vorpal, which grants some key buffs that effectively put them in control to press their advantage state. For Vatista, being able to just set a gem in front of me and Concentrate is a way of forcing my opponent to make a move - I have the life lead, I have Vorpal, I'll wait. They tried to just Concentrate back at first, but since I'm already ahead that just maintains an equilibrium in my favor.
Finished Deltarune on my $450 Deltarune machine. I don't know if I can handle waiting another decade for the full thing to be finished.
Storm knocked out my power yesterday (just got it back this morning), so I figured that at least until my batteries die, this is the time to start on that copy of Sea of Stars that's been sitting on my shelf after I bought it on sale last year. So far very impressed by it. Also nice that I can actually use handheld mode again with working JoyCons, my Switch 1 hadn't left the dock in years.
Here's an Under Night In-Birth II clip.
Relapsing back into Puyo Puyo Champions, again. My relationship with the game remains complicated, as does my sadness at feeling like queue times are getting slower and slower...
Also dusted off Splatoon 3 for the new Jet kit. There's gonna be a casual bracket at a convention I'm going to next weekend, so I gotta try and derust a bit.
If you wanna take the attitude that you can do whatever you want with it including piracy, fine but you're on your own. If you can't get your flashcart working offline, tough shit. Too bad, so sad. It's your fault for using the flashcart.
If you try to go online with a flashcart, you're an idiot and I have no sympathy.
I could say the same to you.
The point I'm making is this: if you wanna pirate, you're on your own. If you can't get it working, tough shit. You played stupid games and you won stupid prizes.
If you want to do things that require online access, don't use the flashcart.
You can do what you want offline. But as I said above, if you take it online, you're an idiot.
Weird still exists, true, but the combination of weird + budget is what's really missing.
You sure about that? DS online was so basic that they actually didn't have the capability to do bans back then.
It's not bricked. It's just banned from online services. Sony and Microsoft do this too, for the record.
