The “Sonic the Hedgehog” film series proves Sega’s characters can translate to other media. But executive Justin Scarpone thinks that’s just the tip of the iceberg. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/life/2026/01/16/digital/sega-sonic-games-movies-merchandise-disney-strategy/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #life #digital #videogames #sega #nintendo #sonicthehedgehog #warhammer

This is an incredibly specific request, but I'm hoping for some Fediverse magic:
Does anyone here own a Nintendo Hands Free Controller AND could take a photo of it for a CC-BY-SA 4.0 licensed OER project?
We can't use any copyrighted materials in our presentations, so official PR photos – which are the only ones I can find online – are not an option, unfortunately.
Any help would be much appreciated, boosts included!

![Fin de conversation passablement énervée, une femme réprimande son partenaire qui arbore un fier t-shirt « Pwned » : « Parfois je me demande où est passé l’enfant qui était en toi. » Le partenaire ne se laisse pas faire, et alors que sa compagne tourne les talons déclare crânement : « Il a grandi princesse, bienvenue à l’âge adulte ! » Plan plus large sur la chambre du partenaire : un fauteuil de gamer, des figurines, des Lego, du Star Wars, des Haribo, des boîtes de joujoux régressifs pour adulte partout.

Have you ever noticed that the food graphics in Super Smash Bros. and Kirby Air Riders is flat “billboarded” stock images of food? This artistic decision from director Masahiro Sakurai has persisted through 8 games over nearly 25 years.
While researching every game with this art style and all 150+ unique food images I ended up fixing wikis, reviewing a seasonal KitKat flavor, and preserving an uncatalogued image of tempura soba.

I created a “Wrapped”-style summary of gaming in 2025 on the Nintendo #GameCube, #Switch, and #Switch2 with my favorite games, a public dataset, and a bunch of SQL queries.
This is also my last post in 2025, thanks for reading and see you next year 💜
