Josh64 Posted April 25, 2011 Posted April 25, 2011 I've moved my musings about robotic Yoshi's and obscure goings on in the world of games from JoystickJunkies to the beautiful (and soon to be changed) URL of... http://josh64128.blogspot.com/ I wanted to do a gaming blog but there are so many it seemed kinda pointless which is why I went from talking about upcoming games and the industry itself to instead finding interesting, crazy and weird things in the world of games. Also, this has nothing (sadly) to do with Comedy Rainbow ;D What do you guys think? What do you like/dislike/think should change?
Pancake Posted April 25, 2011 Posted April 25, 2011 I love it! My king of blog. I like the content, and the writing style. And how could you not be hooked when the first post is Pikachu lipstick! So awesome.
Josh64 Posted April 25, 2011 Author Posted April 25, 2011 Thanks for the positive feedback, I'm glad you like it I have way more posts lined up so stay tuned
ReZourceman Posted April 26, 2011 Posted April 26, 2011 Very much like it. I particularly like the posts about merchandise, like the Dreamcast and Game and Watch keyrings. Added to favourites.
Josh64 Posted April 27, 2011 Author Posted April 27, 2011 Glad you like it, Rez! I'll be sure to post more merchandise tomorrow (There's plenty for me to cover :P) but in the meantime you should check out a rather beastly snail; Some would call it animal abuse yet the more open minded would call it beautiful art.
Frank Posted April 28, 2011 Posted April 28, 2011 That poor snail Talk about being easy for predators to see. S/He'll never last I haven't read your blog thoroughly yet so I'll get back to you
Josh64 Posted April 29, 2011 Author Posted April 29, 2011 Poor snail indeed xD And thanks for checking it out, Frank! (Btw, were you formerly Nintendo Master or am I getting myself confused? :P) Anyway, I posted about a rather spiffing DK inspired shower today and J-Pop in the form of Ken Hirai for extra measure!
Magnus Posted April 29, 2011 Posted April 29, 2011 Listening to Osu!/Elite Beat Agents songs outside the games always makes me want to tap everything around me furiously.
Frank Posted April 29, 2011 Posted April 29, 2011 To answer that puzzling question -- yes, that was my old name. I've slowly but surely shed that part of me and I am now a new person! sorta. Currently going through your website. Delightful read. Good tone
Josh64 Posted April 29, 2011 Author Posted April 29, 2011 I know what you're saying Magnus, I also find that when I hear a Donkey Konga song on the radio the bongo drums are playing in the back of my mind. And glad you like it Frank Also, I have a rather incredible (and tiny) piece of merchandise lined up for tomorrow to keep Rez happy! ;D
Josh64 Posted April 30, 2011 Author Posted April 30, 2011 Mini Mushrooms! They're even all the colours of the rainbow, perfectly fitting for the blog!
Pancake Posted May 1, 2011 Posted May 1, 2011 The trouble with that blog is that it makes me want everything on it. The snail, the woman with Pika lipstick, the DK shower, the Street Fighter cupcakes... you've taunted me with a life i can never have!
Josh64 Posted May 1, 2011 Author Posted May 1, 2011 (edited) I feel your pain, Pancake; to add to that pain you should check out the latest post featuring Pacman related merchandise! And with that... I'm off to bed! I just about made it in time to count as todays post xD I've been at work for 12 hours, got home, about to go to bed when suddenly I remembered I'd yet to post anything D: EDIT: Also, for some reason, my google ads has been deactivated :S apparently there was suspicious behaviour (as in they think ive been somehow making up visitor views?) which is not only a pain but also incredibly annoying as I haven't been tampering with anything in that sense. I can appeal but cba right now :P So for the time being there will be no ads littering the page - Hurrah I suppose! xD Edited May 1, 2011 by Josh64
Rummy Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 I am kinda liking it, where do you find this stuff?! Pacman chairs look awsumz.
Josh64 Posted May 5, 2011 Author Posted May 5, 2011 "You like the Commodore 64? You like Synth-Pop? Well then just imagine if they combined to make a unique and overwhelmingly nerdy fusion of fantastic beats and old school sounds – Well, my friend, there’s no need to imagine anymore as Mind.In.A.Box released their fantastic album R.E.T.R.O last year [...]" http://josh64128.blogspot.com/2011/05/mindinabox-retro.html New post about an awesome band who have huge influences from Commodore 64 games; any retro gamer will love this.
Josh64 Posted May 11, 2011 Author Posted May 11, 2011 I'd like to apologize on two accounts; firstly for double posting (God damn, who DOES that now?) and secondly for not updating every day as I said I would. It's hardly a good start I know but I was slapped in the face by coursework which lately seems to be spewing out of every direction. Anyway though, to make it up to you all I've had a Donkey Kong blow out and posted about 3 rather cool DK related things - Especially an incredibly corny number which you have to hear to believe; It's called "Do The Donkey Kong" - Your ears will never be the same!
Magnus Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 I thought the song was pretty catchy, though I really have no desire to do Donkey Kong. He's not my type.
Josh64 Posted May 16, 2011 Author Posted May 16, 2011 New post about my visit to Summer Of Sonic last year! I'll post details of the up and coming one this year, tomorrow!
