  • The Sunsetting Days Of Nintendo’s Trend Setting Ways

    We have entered into a rather grim part of the year…that being the ever lamentable dregs of Joyless January, which I argue always brings forth the vibe of an emotionally bankrupt black hole that no joy can escape from within the spacetime continuum. Double your pleasure… In an ill conceived attempt in thinking I can… Read more

  • MKW: Self-Actualizing On The Race Track, One Blue Shell At A Time

    Not all who wander are lost… Others still, are just lost causes As I was finishing up “The Art of Losing” yesterday, the vibe it brought forth carried a certain finality to it, as if it was one of the last great insights I had the ability to muster, in sharing my deconstruction of Mario… Read more

  • Mario Kart World: The Art Of Losing

    When you can’t beat em: help them beat other people. An insane world demands crazy standards With void week nearly over, and the spacetime continuum jolting back into its proper volumized moment of “nowish” in question, the frozen absurdity of humanities follies regain virality unabated, and with it, totality of disappointment made manifest afresh once… Read more

  • MKW: The Nuclear Fallout Of The Rampant Rubber Banding Bureaucracy

    Let it not be said how existentially relevant the doctrine involving the military strategy MAD (Mutually Assured Destruction) has been to humanity at large. In a MAD world, some pterodactyls just want to watch the world burn My continued exploration into the depths of Mario Kart World’s (MKW) metagame has been an engaging effort, to… Read more

  • MKW: Equalizing The Meritocracy of The Metagame

    As we continue to trudge with aimless abandon through the inane purgatory that is void week, we persist right alongside all of the air conditioned nightmares and blue collar existentialism along with it. Such a sense of isolation and monotony is enough to send one screaming hysterically into the night I continue to spend time… Read more

  • MKW: The Accursed Love Triangle Of The Demon Named Nostalgia

    In the process of finding oneself, experimentation is necessary. Have the confidence to be the monster under someone else’s bed My track record of analysis in most regards remains firmly anchored in the realm of proven standard, though I would be remiss of authenticity if I wasn’t honest about how utterly baffled I am at… Read more

  • Mario Kart: Problems Of Scale Makes Flat The World Too Wide “To Tour”

    Expectation is often what occurs when one sees the world as they prefer to imagine it vs what it tends to be in actuality. Needless to say, often disappointing as a result Yesterday was rife with flow…tis a predictable shame that impermanence reinforced the notion of good things and the time limits that haunt them,… Read more

  • Mario Kart World: The Dilapidation Of Virtual Domestication

    “Broadening one’s horizons” doesn’t always translate into an unequivocally good thing. When keeping it real goes wrong, yuletide edition. In grappling with the truth that confronts me, in all of its profanely greasy textures… the one involving the essence of what makes Mario Kart World the kind of racer it really is, I’m finding it… Read more

  • Mario Kart World: Redlining On The Scenic Route

    The last week of December is truly the no man’s land of modern civilization: just keep your head down, and hope for the best, as the apathetic insanity can’t last forever. Clocking into a shift feeling like getting ready to throw hands with a Balrog I was a bit ambitious yesterday, in both naming my… Read more

  • Blue Shells and Banana Peels

    This article is more of a drive-by-posting of sorts, but there’s always time for a spot of good news. To wit; it looks as if Nintendo confirmed the team behind Super Mario Odyssey is developing Donkey Kong Bananza. Looks like the next Donkey Kong is going to be “feature length”, as it were This much… Read more

  • (Revisting) The Greasy Reality of Mario Kart

    These days, I feel quite off when I’m not framing my gaming articles through the lens of philosophy. Almost as if my mention of philosophy in tandem with gaming has become not unlike Marvel editors’ desire to inject doom where no doom previously existed To that point (somehow), here on ATE, self-identity is a big… Read more
