Dec. 15th, 2025 11:59 amA few months ago, via family things, I came into some money and was told as long as a certain portion was socked away, it was mine, do what I want with it. Said portion was dutifully socked away, and I've proceeded to spend several months careening around screaming like an opossum that I'm managing to Do It Wrong while making preorders/Kickstarters for books I thought I've have to miss, making a number of donations on a few occasions, tackling the holidays better ...
... finally buying a new vacuum and a bunch of other household/wardrobe necessities >.> ...
And am still sitting on the majority, stressed and anxious because Spending The Money.
Then it came to my attention that Arcade1UP may be defunct and Iwas egged on by several enablers pulled the trigger on a long wished-for thing that was by no means cheap but. But.
But now I have a 3/4-size assemble-myself Pac-Man cab on the way.
The other games on it will be nice (Galaxian! Galaga!) but it is first and foremost a Pac-Man cab. Sized like it was made for me.
I don't know if the brainweasels will even get me as much as usual, because this is something I have wanted very nearly my entire bloody life.
... who am I kidding I live to be guilty and miserable
But.
Arcade Pac-Man. With a joystick. omfg.

Dec. 12th, 2025 04:06 amWe have a new Classic Mega Man announced! Mega Man Dual Override!
... predictably the fans are being the most stupid whining motherfuckers ever to not be mercifully drowned in a toilet bowl. *lies flat*
Apparently this isn't the only thing coming down the pike, though, according to Protodude:
"So, what I can say:
This project has been in development on and off for a couple of years. It is not Taisen. It is, and at one point was titled, Mega Man 12. It was originally planned to be announced earlier this year, as far back as spring.
It is a keystone project for the 40th anniversary. Not the only one, but a big one."
Spose I'll keep a sliver of thought and hope alive for X9 or anything X-series tbh, but we'll see -- Capcom deciding Mega Man is going to be upjumped to a core IP could mean just Classic, or ...
