's editing and production work was fantastic. Just an absolute blast, aside from the Thunderblight Ganon fight. That man can rot in hell.

A lot of people are replaying BotW before Totk comes out, and that's probably a good call. But what I would recommend instead of (or at least in addition to) that is watch @agentbizzle and @ZachariusD play it co-op style with one controller each youtube.com/playlist?list=

It’s been completely surreal watching a major city like San Francisco become a ghost town in real time. Tons of restaurant and business closures. Way less commuters. Empty buildings everywhere. All the tech companies bounced and people got priced out. Just a hollow city now.

Close to 30% of San Francisco's office space is now vacant, more than 7x higher than the vacancy rate from early 2020. wsj.com/articles/san-f

Runner up art direction goes to Katsuya Terada’s gorgeous Zelda illustrations, of course, but that feels like something modern Nintendo couldn’t turn into a movie, theme park, and merchandise line as easily and that’s all part of the big picture these days.

Potentially controversial take here but if Nintendo ever makes an animated Zelda movie, they should go with the Wind Waker/Toon Link art style. It’s vibrant, immensely expressive, and captures the spirit of the character and world perfectly.

Replaying The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker on my Zelda hype train to Tears of the Kingdom and the part where Link gets the Master Sword and returns color and life to the temple remains one of my favorite moments in this entire franchise. Just incredible. I love this game so much.

The first episode better start off kinda shitty and boring, and then by episode 3, you never wanna watch anything else ever again

This back to back run of covering The Last of Us, Resident Evil 4, The Super Mario Movie, and Tears of the Kingdom has been some of the most fun and rewarding work I’ve ever been a part of. Super proud of the writing, hosting, & production work I’ve put in this year so far 💜

It's a fish. Just a regular fish. They made a whole ass poster of a fish. Just a typical, normal fish you would see at a place where they have fish. I just can't anymore with this shit.

I traded in my blue checkmark here and now they're selling it as "brand new" for $8 even though it's used, covered in scratches, and doesn't have a case.

The perfect album. Incredibly consistent production despite the wide breadth of beatmakers involved. Vivid, creative storytelling with a touch of humor. Equal parts grimy and polished. Just an absolute masterpiece. Salute.

This makes The Super Mario Bros Movie the highest grossing video game adaptation ever made, beating Warcraft, Detective Pikachu, and Donkey Kong Divorce Cruise. Incredible achievement!

ME A FEW DAYS AGO: A great thing about the Mario Movie is that it's not a musical and I won't have to hear the songs from it for months or years afterwards like Encanto, Frozen, and Lion King. MY BRAIN EVERY FIVE MINUTES SINCE THEN: Peaches peaches peaches peaches peaches

Oh wow it turns out the best way to do a video game adaptation was to just… adapt the video game. It’s almost like the answer was just sitting there all this time!

My latest video essay for
@IGN
: I think Resident Evil 4 is the best video game remake ever made. I break down why it works so well, where other remakes stumbled, and why Capcom gets it. youtu.be/oEgHnvBcyF4 Super proud of this video! Likes & retweets are much appreciated 💜

I can’t even begin to picture what this will look like and that’s very exciting. Big opportunity to reinvent the entire visual language of Star Wars. Like, will they even have ships or droids yet? What does a 25,000 year old lightsaber look like? I’m all in on whatever this is.
