This landed on the YT on time, but delayed here.
Premiere at midnight EST. Or is it a funeral? Either way, it’s actually important. Part of it, anyway.
So June happens to be the month in which I’ve chosen to implement a moratorium on wrestling-related material and for the most part, that’s been a success. I avoided talking about this other business that has, largely, been a chore to follow, which made it somewhat easy.
However, considering today marks the 30th anniversary of a rather significant promo that planted the seeds for one of the most successful T-shirts in the history of that business, it’d be foolish to not mention SOMETHING on this occasion.
And then you sort of come to realize that there is nothing you can say about this piece of business that has been said better than others might have. So as a compromise, I’m going to direct you to my old PPV musings of the show in question, which I have conveniently updated bits and pieces to better express my thoughts. Maybe when this thing turns 35, I’ll give it a proper musings rather than the obvious rush job these things were back in the day… assuming we make it that far.
In addition, I recently uncovered the thoughts on the promo when it turned twenty years old. They more or less sum up my thoughts on the matter and won’t take too much of your time to read. Please give these a read. Thanks.
Happy birthday, Austin 3:16.
Yes, you’re getting older.
Later.

The good news is that this is going to be the longest review of a single game this week. The bad news is that it’s the only review that’s going to be up on schedule… although purely for reasons that satisfy my desire to make you people wait longer for the inevitable.
Less than thirty-six hours to rip.
Old 2025 video about a Sonic The Hedgehog-themed energy drink that precedes the week’s worth of Sonic reviews to come along the channel. Who would have guessed it’d take a year to get there? Oh wait…
A change of pace. Instead of counting down to rip, here’s counting down to our next review thing.
Also, the laptop did not blow up. Thank fuck for that.

One final MMM level for the masses, as we revisit Mega Man II on Game Boy… sorta. No Quint, no boss rush, no problem. Just watch your step and you’ll be fine.

One of my earliest test stages – first part has Star Shield jumping prowess while the second half throws Jet Mega Man under the fire… only two checkpoints in the entire level and not one where you might need it most.
This could be tricky… oh well.

The first of three levels posted today is a pseudo-remix/amalgamation of Wily Station from Mega Man III (GB) and Special Stage 2 from Mega Man 10. Something similar was done for Enker, but this is actually ready to go, so it goes up first.
I didn’t think that I’d be doing two games that I used to play on an old handheld thing that is now dearly departed… funny how things work out.
Next week is Sonic… and Rip.
