Greetings of Various Seasonal Appropriateness
Merry Christmas and other winter holidays all.
Because of the difficulty I seem to have in keeping up with radio, I’ve never gotten to plug this on time in the past three years. Therefore, in completely unrelated news, you can catch the last episode of the Man in Black. Pure radio horror stories, bookended by comments from the Man in Black, here the purring Mark Gatiss.
“Please, take care.”
Katawa Shoujo Release Imminent!
Celebrating the 5th anniversary of the post that brought a bunch of determined 4channers together to create a visual novel. Based on what I saw from Act 1, this game should excel in every metric by which you measure a quality VN. I can’t wait to play.
Bittorrent Find of the Day
The magic of filesharing is not fr33 mu5ic& mov1ez!!!, it’s people coming together to create a library of otherwise unavailable things.
Love Plus English Patch Released
Just wow. I didn’t know this project was even happening. I’ve been curious about this game for a while and I can’t wait to finally play. Congrats and thanks to the TLWiki team!
What Zelda Is
“You find yourself in a dungeon, possibly unsure how to open a locked door. You can trust that the people who made the game only allowed you to enter the dungeon because you had everything you needed to get through it…That’s Zelda.“
-Stephen Totilo, Kotaku

I’ve Waited More Than 10 Years for This
Shina…get in the glowing green square…
This trailer was at the start of all my Magic Knight Rayearth tapes. To my great disapointment I could never track it down…until one day I realized I was connected to a world wide web where some clever person would have undoubtedly preserved it…
Edit: Sorry, video doesn’t appear in the RSS feed.
“Aww” Picture of the Day
Sometimes you know a book was written just for you
And The Pirates! is a whole series of such books for me.
I’m not sure why the US release decided to go with the generic subtitle “Band of Misfits” instead of the more promising “In an Adventure With Scientists”, but that’s a small thing. So since you may not be aware, this is a story about some quite lovely pirates AND Charles Darwin.
-> Another trailer, this one with a catchy song.
