I tried to explain the Game Boy Camera and Printer to my kids a few months ago and it was so bizarre even in my memory. YouTube made it easier to confirm that it really WAS that odd. Loved them though. Did anything beyond the Camera and Link's Awakening DX use the Printer? 🤔

Elektroplankton is one of my favorite games for the ds! In a weird coincidence I dusted my ds off a few weeks back and showed my kids this game and they really took to it. It's the joy of making music in a very simplified form. It's easy to make good sounding "songs". If anybody has a reccomendation for other games or apps similar to Elektroplankton please let me know!

I really enjoyed the travelogue.

I first heard about Mother bc there was all these Mother covers for Hobonichi journals and it wasn’t until years after I’d gotten into Hobonichi that I learned… they’re both made by Shigesato Itoi.

Complete side note, but in a similar vein to your story about Japan. In the Fall of 2000, I was travelling out of state with our college marching band and forgot my wallet in my friend's car that drove a bunch of us to the airport (~2.5 hr drive). I didn't realize until I was picking up my ticket, so my luggage was flagged, but I was vouched for and was let aboard. So w/out my debit card or driver's license, I spent the next three days days carefully spending the $4.50 in quarters I had in my bag (water fountain and vending machine Doritos for dinner) and mooching food/money from friends when I could. Travelling stories pre-9/11 sound even stranger these days.
