The Mike what does the unedited let's plays. https://open.spotify.com/show/4HV6BAd2AaZT3e1eAAE5jJ I do the occasional shit haiku about my cats.

Play stats for Game Boy Advance
Stats of my playtime for Unicorn Overlord.
Messy cable situation. I've been testing an old PS2 with a scratched to fuck copy of Star Wars Battlefront (cousins circa 2008ish) Anyway it all works
Boxed PS2 games Makai Kingdom Ace Combat LOTR the Third Age Quake 3 Disgaea 2 Star Wars Battlefront Half Life Orphen: Scion of Sorcery Kingdom Hearts II Phantom Brave La Pucelle: Tactics
A surprisingly not sticky but yellowed to hell Playstation dualshock controller.
A Calico cat named noodle napping in the shade after a sunshine frolic
A tabby named Chi complaining about the heat, loudly.
A high score table from pinball video game Devil's Crush. On a Powkiddy V90 I got 6722200 I had a really good time
A pixel dweeb
Selfy of myself taken to illustrate that I wasn't home I'm wearing a camouflage jacket acquired from lost & found at the end of sixth form in 2008, a randy savage t-shirt, and my favourite cardy 🤣
ASCII cam picture of my cat noodle sat on my lap
A picture of my Neo Geo Mini taken with ASCII cam
Castomira, a dark evil goddess lady begs her light counterpart Princess Leaty: "Not the eternal darkness... It is so dark there" The photo is of a Technos Super Pocket, the device I play Evercade games on. The game is Arcus Odyssey, available on steam, Megadrive and as part of the renovation collection on Evercade.
A picture of a Pokémon cereal box. It says: POKÉMON HIGH IN FIBRE
An image of Seth, a horseman from Fore Emblem: the Sacred Stones. He's a fancy anime fantasy boy on a brown horse. Kind of 90s boybandish red hair, carrying a lance/pike.
The European PlayStation cover for Grandia, featuring some of the main characters (anime adventurers with various outfits and hair colours) l-r Sue, Justin, and Feena.
A tabby cat who I have named sad Sam. He is staring lovingly at my cat Chi (not pictured) who he wants to bone.
A grey tabby I have taken to calling Sadsack, staring forlornly into my house, desperate to bone the one female cat in the neighborhood who hasn't been spayed yet because of potential immune system issues 🤣
A screenshot from a fan translation of Popolocrois, where stereotypical SE Asian characters appear to swap all Ls for Rs in dialogue 😬
A picture of a cartoon otter/Pokémon looking determined with his little shell. Below there is text. Oshawott will not stop. It will battle on.
An Anbernic RG34XX SP, playing Popolocrois.
The above post of Laharl and Flonne from Disgaea, except the like count is a perfect 666 that I'm going to really struggle to break but I kind of have to.
Some Pokémon with brilliant names like: Nightwing the Corvisquire (I always reference Robin in Pokémon games) Russell the... Whatever is between Grokey and Rillaboom? It was a reference to Gorillaz! Bingo the Manetric (for bingo was his name-o) Leaky the SirFetch'd (FROM THE LAND OF LEEKS! I assume the galarian Farfetch'ds are all Welsh 🤔 because Wales is brilliant) Fafnir the Dragonair... Because dragon names Queen Mab the Kirlia (it's a game rotten with Fair Family innit?!)
A Powkiddy v90 (I think) playing the Bard's Tale on an NES emulator. The scene is a tavern, the text reads "See you again, SEXY" SEXY is what I called the party bard.
A sleeping tabby cat named Kaiser. A warm precious blob impeding my ability to get out of bed.
A scene of a park in Leeds rendered in ASCII text. It's quite nice I reckon.

A black and white tuxedo cat named Chi, curled up on a cheap office chair from 2012ish
Text from Crystal Warriors (a game on the Game Gear) "I'll bet you didn't know that tamed monsters can be used in battles!"
My 9 games: Grandia, bloody Roar 2, Metal Slug X, Final Fantasy IX, Monster Hunter 4, Etrian Odyssey 4, Dynasty Warriors 4 (but also that whole era of Musou), Pokémon Yellow, Zelda Oracle of Ages (and ergo Seasons too! Ha! Gamed the system!)
A blurry photo of the Taito Arcade collection 3 for Evercade. It's a purple box with bub and bob on the cover because frankly this should be called Cadash/Puzzle Bobble plus some others. It was done with a flash in the dark because I am legitimately in my exile bed because my nose is whistling...
Fire Emblem Echoes - shadows of valentia Probably not the FE game everyone would think of first but I really enjoyed the extra dungeoneering for FE Gaiden. I bought the big box special edition but sadly the amiibo didn't survive children. However the little art book was FIRE
A dragon hovers over some nice green water in a big canyon type place. A dithered waterfall can be seen in the background.
It kind of looks like a technicolour dinosaur that's either being embraced by another one or eaten by it. The other one lacks colour apart from the maw, which appears to drip in the bright colours of the colourful one.
An old pen drawing of a pink ninja (referenced from Power Rangers the Movie)
Fluffy person trying to patch roof leaks
A Calico cat called noodle. She is very squishy and cuddle mode right now. Purring like some kind of idling motorcycle engine!
A picture of a fluffy person in a hood, put through a rather spiffy ZX Spectrum style filter
The results screen for the third stage of Gitaroo Man Lives. Featuring Mojo King Bee, a major stumbling block when I first played the game on PS2 back in the 00s. Now I feel old...
The results screen for stage two of Gitaroo Man Lives on a black PSP 3000 I only got a B Rank (boo!)
A psp, I've got an A rank on the first level of Gitaroo Man. It might be slightly burned into my brain.
The box for the Piko Collection 1 for Evercade. It contains a bunch of different games.
A cheap MP3 player, on the screen is Only Child from Steven Wilson's first solo album Insurgentes
A tuxedo cat named Chi poking out from a curtain next to some toys and other bits.
The cover for Slipstream 5000, a PC game from the 90s I played as a child. There are spaceship type craft and the statue of liberty.
A jolly yet clearly possessed effigy of a snail.
Vivi Orniter from Final Fantasy IX, a small wizard with floppy hat, blue coat, silly stripey trousers, and no visible face save for two glowing eyes.
A Tabby named Kaiser and a fluffy Mike shaped person
A tuxedo cat named Chi getting upto mischief in a Christmas tree
A dark skinned lady with blonde hair leans on an ornate railing, magical energies course between her hand, her eyes, and the reflective surface of the railing.
A Calico cat named Noodle. Her eyes make her look naturally cynical. Like if Daria (from Daria) was a cat. She's quite affectionate all considered. But she only really likes me. She is after all my cat
A blurry screenshot of the final boss of Valis III. Earth is beautifully rendered in the background as Yuko faces off against Glames, a sassy red sword monster.
Donkey Kong 94 beating Megaman V by a few percent
