Catching up on our Splatoon 3 media
My Nintendo Switch has been getting a lot of play so far in 2023, and one of the games in that rotation is Nintendo’s Splatoon 3. I’ve always been a big fan of the series, but I never invested a ton of time into the previous two entries. I figured I should make an attempt […]

Fifteen Years of GemuBaka!
Friday, May 19 has come and gone, meaning GemuBaka is now 15 years old. It’s actually an incredible feat and something that means a lot to me, but I’m sitting here with no real update or special feature to recognize the occasion. In my personal life, the past six months have not been overly kind […]

Playing through the new Street Fighter 6 demo
Capcom has been so willing to share the ins and outs of Street Fighter 6 for several months, it kind of catches me off guard to realize the full game will be in stores in just a month and a half now. As the launch draws closer, Capcom hosted a showcase event that resulted in […]

Rhythm Game Roundup: Theatrhythm, Museca, CHUNITHM, Hello Kitty, Samba de Amigo
I haven’t been able to get out much so far in 2023, so getting my hands on the usual fare of rhythm games has been a little more difficult recently. Thank goodness for Theatrhythm Final Bar Line, which is extremely likely to stick in my top games of the year and may even land as […]

The Fool’s Speedrun 2023: WrestleMania Arcade Game (SNES – 100%)
Each year for April Fool’s Day, I try to feature an off-kilter video game through a speedrun or a 1CC. This year’s April Fool’s Day happened to coincide with the first night of WrestleMania, so everything finally aligned to bring me to the fate of a 100% playthrough of the Super Nintendo version of WWF […]

Combing Through the Pages: Nintendo Power #20
I owe Mario for getting me into gaming, but if there was a series that I gravitated to the most as a kid, that would be Capcom’s Mega Man. I always loved magazine coverage of Mega Man, as those pages usually had character art from the series, on top of any covers or posters the […]

Retro Achiever Game #59: Batman (Game Boy)
It’s been nearly six months since I’ve been back to live streaming content, but I have yet to return to the Retro Achiever concept. It does cross my mind every now and again, but I’m waiting until I have more time to dedicate to the show format … and available time to stream is something […]

The weekly #WedNESday
February hasn’t been very kind to my free time – with my workplace restructuring and changing my schedule on top of getting sick twice, I haven’t done much outside of work and rest. That’s why it’s a good thing I have a couple of simple content creation series I can fall back on when I […]

Sampling Theatrhythm with the Final Bar Line trial
I touched on Final Fantasy Theatrhythm Final Bar Line by Square-Enix in a preview in December, and since that time the company has released a trial version to allow players a sampling of the game and a chance to get a head start on leveling up a few characters before the release of the full […]
