MOTHER 3 shirt, LEGO sunflower, Lucas amiibo, Ultimate Chimera magnet, and a Mr. Saturn tea set
My shirt is well-loved! 🌻❤️
The "Ambitious" Bob Hoskins Mario Mii
Mii too!
Also, shout-out to the autistic-coded Jenny, my favorite character! 🐸
I had the same experience echoes! Heard for years that it was this revered cult classic & it seemed like a slam dunk thing I'd enjoy, but I never got around to it until NSO. I fell in love right away, but especially when you're rewarded with a "Trauma Suit" for running out of battery 🤕
20 years ago i bought two MOTHER 3 DX boxes – one for myself, one for The Future
a few weeks ago, i took that mint DX with me to Japan and got it signed by Shigesato Itoi
today, it goes up for auction to benefit @wck.org

Chibi-Robo!
A sticky note with doodles of strange faces/expressions. They are labeled "cheese!", "gasp!", "sheesh", "gadzooks", "chillin'", "guh guh", and "clown town"
I doodled during a work lecture. Here are some strange faces from my imagination:
Super Famicom version of DKC3 playable at an in-store kiosk. This is the world map screen, showing the first world 100% cleared.
All levels cleared
They had Super Donkey Kong 3 set up at Bookmans 🐵 it's my favorite so I had to clear the first world!
A squish toy named "Chonk-e-Hedgehog"
Guys the next Sonic game just leaked!!!
They're all from The Adventure of Link! His nose in ALttP is similar but not as long
Didn't even think of that, brilliant 😆
You could argue the NES sprites reflect this as well. Here are a couple of side profiles 👃
Example #1: Link w/ Impa illustration
Example #2: Another Link w/ Impa illustration
Example #3: Link pointing up on page 43 of the JPN instruction manual
Example #4: Concept art of Link
Proof that Link did indeed have a "sausage nose" for @nintendormant.bsky.social! This is official art from the English & JPN instruction manuals. The last one is concept art. Look at that schnoz!
Penguin picture, windows default lock screen background
penguinism by Shigesato Itoi
The way my mind works is that I see this normal picture of penguins and just immediately think of Shigesato Itoi's "penguinism" album
Beautiful 🤖❤️🦍
The N64 Zeldas are pure magic ✨️ I love SMB3, like many others I teeter between it and World for favorite 2D Mario. As a JRPG fan, I'm ashamed I've never played Dragon Quest 😭 I'll fix that with the 1-3 remakes! My wife also has Kingdom Hearts + Pokémon on her list, and loves TWEWY 😁
As someone with DKC3 as their favorite Donkey Kong game, I have all the respect for Skyward Sword being your #1 Zelda! Overhated games in a beloved series 🤝
Yes it is, that's how I played it! 😁 Let me know if you decide to try it. Definetely read the manual first though: moon-rpg.com/en/sub/manua...
Your top 3 Zeldas are my favs as well 💛
I watered every square inch of what the game would let me except for Squirtle
Just when I think "Okay, NOW I've learned everything there is to know about MM", this happens 😆 I feel like despite it being "just" an N64 game, there will always be something new to talk about...some obscure detail we haven't considered. And that's awesome!
Best thumbnails on YouTube, I swear 😄🔥 excited for this one, great video topic!!
Answer: Mankey, Andross, Diddy Kong, Salsa, Ukiki, Porter, Chimpy, Kirby (DK Copy Ability), and the "Foolish Monkey" (Majora's Mask).
N64 monkeys! Which one is your favorite? From my "patron thanks" end screen.
Newest video is about a strange monkey-related oversight I discovered in Majora's Mask! youtu.be/Pr2CHnq3ug8?... 🐒
Four pictures. The first is Link standing in front of the monkeys, who are restricting access to the Southern Swamp itself instead of the Woods of Mystery. The next is a screen of the monkeys skipping on water like Deku Link! Pictures 3 & 4 reveal the "monkey chimera", which is what happens when the monkey brothers stop at the same place and clip into each other.
After reviving Koume in Majora's Mask, monkeys will stop Link from leaving the woods. You can simply hear them out to proceed...but if you ignore them with the Song of Soaring, they'll bar access to the swamp itself & clip into each other, creating a monkey chimera.

I accidentally typed "moneyness" into YouTube's search, instead of "monkeyness"
Made a typo trying to get to @monkeyness.bsky.social's channel...I was very confused for a second
Photo taken in '99, my brother and I holding SNES controllers
My brother & I playing Super Nintendo! I'm locked in on the left having no fun, and my li'l bro on the right with a disconnected broken controller is having the time of his life 😆
What are we playing?
A very scary face 😨
Wowie I'm viewer 666K of this here spoopy video 😨
Koume drinking a Red Potion Link offered her
Wife watching me play MM:
“Isn’t that Ganondorf’s surrogate mom?”
“Yes.”
“She good now!?”
“Termina's like a parallel world, so it’s an alternate version of her.”
“People sh*t on Kingdom Hearts for being complicated, but Zelda's worse w/ all the different dimensions & reuse of characters”
😆
