  • This eevee wasn't originally going to be gigantic, but I shaded it with the light coming from below, and had to draw a reason why.
  • Microsoft predicts 1 billion next-gen console sales They're delirious.
  • Unfortunately the new Xbox is looking to be more of a Smart TV with some gaming on the side.
  • Happy birthday! Time to leave your childhood behind you.
  • Another EarthBound enemy, the Worthless Protoplasm. When defeated, sometimes drops a cookie!
  • Here's my attempt at Unassuming Local Guy, one of the many wonderful enemies from EarthBound. His signature attack is "Become friendly and affectionate" (target becomes solidified), and there is a small chance he will drop a Toothbrush when defeated.
  • I still need to see the first two.
  • Mother 1 was localized, they just decided not to release it because by that point it was late in the NES lifecycle and Nintendo didn't think Americans were into RPGs. Somehow years later the translated ROM surfaced, somebody hacked the title screen to say "EarthBound Zero" instead of "MOTHER", and now you can find it…

  • Well I could just play the game on my SNES, but I had to do it as a show of support. Plus, I was going to need a WiiU eventually due to inevitable Smash Bros. Off-topic, the Wii U is hooked up downstairs in my living room, and I'm up in my bedroom with the controller and it's still getting a signal. Suddenly my console is…

  • So, this morning Nintendo announced that sometime this year EarthBound will be released in North America and Europe on the WiiU's Virtual Console. Suddenly I own a WiiU.

  • The Mets are playing a four game series in Colorado and it's supposed to snow the whole time, so their PR guy tweeted that the MLB had given them clearance to play a triple-header if necessary. Then some news outlets actually took him seriously and started reporting about it. It's too bad, a triple-header would've actually…
  • A couple weeks ago I got all caught up on Prequel after forgetting to check it for a year. Now I want more.
  • I've been sitting on this one for nearly a year. I was never happy with it, but I was sick of it sitting on my desktop, so I made some revisions and tossed in a background. There are still a few details bugging me that I can't quite pinpoint, however that's probably the best "open animal mouth" I've ever drawn.
  • Oh man, I have a brew panel I need to work on.
  • Then again, Goldeneye was kind of a fluke because the majority of the people who worked on it had never made a video game before, and the multiplayer was tacked on at the last minute without telling the higher-ups about it first.

  • This relationship would never work out. Mostly because I'm bad at drawing squirtles.
  • I couldn't bring myself to take this comic down after April Fools' because it's actually the first decent new thing I've drawn in awhile (and I find Skippy in the 2nd panel to be quite amusing), so I just added a note to the bottom. Hopefully it won't end up being on the front page for a year like my last Halloween comic.
  • I like the graffiti that is in weird "how did they even manage to get up there without killing themselves?" spots. Building graffiti is okay if it a) Looks good and b) Isn't messing anything up. Like... empty brick wall? Go for it. Nicely decorated place, or an area that obviously has a lot of effort going into its upkeep?…

  • Wow, did everyone on this forum turn into coderats? ...cause I also did. My official job title is just "Developer" because I do whatever they tell me to, but it's mostly web stuff. Still living with my parents while I pay down loans and save up for a house. Not much else to say, I've been doing it for about two years and…

  • Yeah, I didn't like that last picture so I went ahead and turned it into a better pokemon.

  • I've been kinda disenchanted with the Xbox lately so I was hoping the PS4 would be something cool. It seemed okay right up until and then I decided to seriously consider a WiiU. I don't know what the fascination is with using real names on the internet lately. Ten years ago anyone could tell you that internet rule #1 was…
  • Huh. Mine usually gives a little popup saying a new update is available, update now or wait till later. But I heard Firefox was considering doing like Google Chrome and ingraining itself in your computer's processes so it can automatically update (another thing that I don't like about Chrome, it takes many steps to get the…
  • Chrome is lame. Everything I make breaks in it, somehow. Chrome is to me what IE is to everyone else. And then there is dear, sweet Firefox. Though I use Pale Moon, which is an optimized version of Firefox so it doesn't have the sluggishness everyone always seems to complain about.
  • They haven't announced the type yet. People are predicting that it's going to be a gender-specific evolution and that there is a male version coming. As if things weren't complicated enough already.
  • So here's supposedly another 6th-gen pokemon. My feelings on it are mixed -- I'm a big fan of the "Oops, all berries!" color scheme, and it *is* better than most everything from 5th gen, but... it evolves from eevee. And it just doesn't strike me as being very eeveeish. The thing would be a hundred times better if it had…
  • In December I was asked in an FYE store to sign up for this 'backstage pass' program that basically just gave out a ton of discounts for various stores and things. I was told that the first month was available at no charge, and afterwards I would be asked if I would like to continue. I agreed to sign up, but after…
