Alpharad – How to Play Villager 202

YouTuber Alpharad has spent the past five months making hype highlight videos of online matches. He has finally finished his “How to Play Sm4sh 101” series with one last Villager video, showing off his absurd damage potential and mindgames.

RWBY "Red" Trailer

The world has gotten a little less awesome. We lost Rooster Teeth lead animator Monty Oum to a severe allergic reaction during a medical procedure. Those are no joke! We know Monty Oum from his action-packed mashup series Dead Fantasy and Haloid and his animation work on Red vs Blue. Here’s a stylish trailer from his last original series, RWBY.

Last Week Tonight with John Oliver

Hey Internet, you all need to do more fact checking before you post stuff. You could post that a dead gorilla got 15,000 write-in votes for president, but you’d be wrong. Last Week Tonight with John Oliver is a comedy news show, but they love to call out mainstream media and celebrities when they say something that’s false. We all need more of that, and it’s easier to watch when it’s funny.

I have news on my highly anticipated, long delayed project! Jiko and I got engaged under the blood moon! I can’t wait for more magic and adventures with the love of my life and our family. I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Japanese TV Commercials Best Of 2015

Anime Hell brought the pain to Ohayocon again this weekend and, like I promised, I took notes. Most of their Japanese TV commercials this year came from the same source: JPCMHD’s Very Best of 2015 compilation. Just put this on in front of a room full of friends and soak it in.

This is the very best from 2015. Hope you guys enjooooy! (^_^)–b

John Hathway – Magic Rocket Station (another)

Time for another dual-monitor desktop wallpaper with a lot going on. pixiv artist John Hathway puts on some Susumu Hirasawa music and draws Mahocho, a vertical city of magic users that use flying brooms, rockets, and jetpacks to get around. The scale is so big you need a fisheye lens to see it all.

Oh, speaking of witches and brooms, this Wednesday on my weekly Instagib stream I’ll be playing the super rare Magical Chase, emulated of course.

This was actually my wallpaper back in August but I saved this post until Halloween time. Is that bad?

chanomach – ナナメから世界を見たって、何もいいことはない ／ Enjoy correctly.

Hi, Internet! I apologize; I’ve been pretty glitchy lately and things have been crazy, what with the weddings and holidays and conventions and all. My cross-posting pipeline is broken so I have to write the same posts four times. That’s too much work!

My stream is erratic, too, but I’ve been experimenting with restream.io to stream to Mixer, Twitch, Smashcast, and Facebook all at once, usually on Friday nights. Once the cartridge is reseated and things work again, I’ll try to relaunch the blog and the stream. These experiments have been fun, though.

ArmchairTitan – Impractical Street Fighter

Street Fighter IV is actually pretty weird beneath the surface. YouTube user ArmchairTitan wows us with ridiculous combos you’ll never see outside of training mode and some priceless editing. This ought to help hold us until we hear more about Street Fighter V‘s mechanics, if they’ll be anywhere near this crazy.

Shirakaba – Chiptune Hell

Chiptune Hell is what I wish my room looked like. The desktop is filled with retro gaming gear I’d have to get at Warp Zone or Ohayocon’s dealer’s room. Is that a CRT TV with a built-in Super Famicom?

I’m trying a few new things with this post. Jetpack is now cross-posting to my rarely-used Twitter and Google+ as well as Facebook and the usual RSS feed. Even if none of those things reach you, you can now subscribe by email in the sidebar. (Can I even do that on Tumblr? That was a nice feature in Jetpack...)

I’ve also introduced tags and tagged up all my previous posts Tumblr-style. If you want to see all the music posts, other posts that have too many links, my original content, or an RSS feed of just the pixiv posts, you can get that now.

The artist's web site links right to the full-size image, I guess it's probably OK if I do the same here. Wow, this post is so meta it hurts.
