Happy #Suikoden release day, y'all! To celebrate, I'm pleased to finally (finally!) announce my next book: "Suikoden 1 & 2" coming from @bossfightbooks.com in 2026! ⚔️ More details: astrolabe.aidanmoher.com/suikoden-1-2...

I look at this and feel joy in a dark world

Absolute all timer that still holds up

*sigh* yeah I should get back to phantasy star at some point, I recall PSIV being more fun than PS2

I can hear this picture!

Speaking as the person who brought you "did you know Koizumi had to sneak Rosalina's story past Miyamoto," Jordan's book is an excellent overview of what might be my favorite Mario game -- it's a game worth taking seriously and he takes it seriously, and I think comes up with the right answers:

Owlboy's 10th anniversary livestream kicks off this Sunday! Oh yeah, and we're dropping an update-patch for the game on the same day! #owlboy #indiedev #gamedev www.youtube.com/watch?v=GJGq...

Saw Street Fighter last night. It was so stupid. I loved it.

Hell yeah, Lula.

BC electing the conservatives: Haha fuck yeah!!! Yes!! BC in like six months: Well this fucking sucks. What the fuck.

Wishing every Conservative voter a very, merry kick in the junk tonight. May your taint be bruised as black as your heart.

Disgusting and disappointing, BC.

The Yankees haven’t won the World Series in like a million years.

While I’m disappointed the last few HD-2D games (Resonance, DQ, etc.) have replaced the environments with a more generic 3D look compared to the early HD-2D emphasis on pixel forward textures… Final Fantasy Resonance sure is pretty.

Glad they were impressed by the inclusion of the Mark Hamill interview. Aka, 20 of my favorite minutes in life. Actual audio here: youtu.be/p1gSrIZqw_A?...

Resonance is off to a good start, despite some jank UI and weak writing. Impressed with the first hour, combat seems cool, and it’s almost comically referential to the mainline FF games. Right up my alley.

Fun to see this great podcast about old gaming magazines finally cover an issue I worked on, pretty much smack dab in the middle of my OPM tenure. I can't listen to it all right now, but I'll offer some commentary along the way as I get through it. 🧵

Meet the baby I’ve been cooking up for the last year. Out next summer. Pre-orders soon!

The trading card game focused side thing I do, TCG Jawn, is now on BlueSky and Instagram. Trying to do more things with it, so if you’d give it a follow, I’d appreciate it.

VOD is live! This one's a banger, even if I do spend most of the stream complaining about structural story and character issues, haha.

Shigeru Miyamoto banger alert.

The first series of Meandering Through Middle-Earth will be on The Hobbit! My co-host for the series, @chipdip.bsky.social from the @preorderbonus.bsky.social, and I will be tackling the entirety of the Hobbit book and the 2003 Hobbit video game from Sierra Entertainment.

Slight change of schedule! @aidanmoher.com is going to go live at 11:30am PST (about 45 minutes from now). So, half an hour earlier than usual! Come join him!

Banger alert.

Thiiiiiiiiis pixel art.

Hey, hey! It's Thursday, so @aidanmoher.com will be streaming today at 12pm PST! Today, we're gonna look at Final Fantasy Resonance on the Switch 2! Throwback HD-2D Final Fantasy based on a mobile game? So many conflicted feelings about this one.

Hi, everyone! I'm still working hard on the Katana ZERO DLC. We made it bigger. It's the size of a full sequel, plus a soundtrack of over 30+ new songs. More updates to come. Thanks for your continued support!

Over half the episodes for this have now been recorded! Tomorrow I will be announcing who my co-host for the series is and which book we will be covering for it. The recording sessions for this has been SO much fun. I cannot wait for you all to hear them.

It's my birthday and there's one present I'd love: a review of Post Games on Apple Podcasts or your podcast app of choice!
