On the Shelf

Habitual collecting chatter and other gaming related content abound! Thanks for listening!

[On the Shelf @otscollectors]

Oh wow.... Been a minute. Time to start cooking.

[On the Shelf @otscollectors]

@gamerguzie I wasn't involved in layoffs, and I didn't want to quit the industry, but there was a lot of uncertainty looming, so when I was approached with a new tech job, it was suggested that I do it.

[On the Shelf @otscollectors]

Soooo, fun fact. OTS was on hiatus because we both left to work in the game industry. Well guess who doesn't anymore? Either of us, but Soul has gone socially dark, so I'm planning some stuff alone. Should I pick things back up and expand more beyond Nintendo? I think yes.

[On the Shelf @otscollectors]

All the plans I had to announce got shelved indefinitely. Our partners got too busy, unfortunately. We already consulted with accountants and lawyers, and we're not abandoning the plan, just working on other things until everyone has time to kick off the project.

It’s crazy to think that back on September 30, 2018, I made my podcast debut as a guest host on @otscollectors!

It’s even crazier that @soulctcher, @CyrixSG and I are all now in the video game industry doing what we love!

A lot of major things have been happening behind the scenes. Those gaming adjacent plans were pushed a couple months as life has been shifted around. Still plan on announcing soon and plan to start the content back up. Maybe more so than before, actually.

[Cyrix @CyrixSG]

Now that I have officially closed my journey with my current IT Apps Dev job, I am super thrilled to announce that on Monday, I will following a lifelong dream by joining the team over at @SerenityForge as a Physical Games Producer. Let this awesome adventure begin!

[On the Shelf @otscollectors]

@ShlibOnSwitch Not yet, but if you want a Nintendo game, there is this system called the Wii U that has some games worth looking at.

[On the Shelf @otscollectors]

Sorry. Been busy playing these neat things called "video games". Check them out if you haven't. Have a feeling they'll be big some day.

[On the Shelf @otscollectors]

@ShlibOnSwitch There is the under the radar one called Elden Ring. I have a friend who played it and says it could be pretty popular if more people could hear about it.

Ok, need some input. Please like and share this as well as respond if you want: What indie game do you think has not gotten the love it deserves? We are specifically looking for single person or small team devs. Hit me up, please!

[On the Shelf @otscollectors]

Want to curb some expectation. This venture we have planned is gaming adjacent, not directly related to it, though we hope a lot of you will enjoy it. The gaming content WILL resume shortly. Lots of balls in the air right now. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

[On the Shelf @otscollectors]

Hoho, meeting with the lawyer tomorrow. Getting close to an announcement.

[On the Shelf @otscollectors]

@soulctcher Waiting for the tutorial to open it up, replace the LEDs with some HID versions so people can use it to light their path to the bathroom in the middle of the night.

[On the Shelf @otscollectors]

Pssst...

[On the Shelf @otscollectors]

Samples tracking to arrive today. Going to use them over the next week or two and see where we stand. Announcement HOPEFULLY coming soon.

[On the Shelf @otscollectors]

Meeting went well. Samples should be here next week. So excited. We might have to finally give away some games we have stockpiled.

[On the Shelf @otscollectors]

This will also help with content creation indirectly and I cannot wait to share more as I can.

[On the Shelf @otscollectors]

Update to the last tweet, meeting scheduled this week with a perspective supplier. Hopefully ends with some samples being shipped and some agreements being made. Fingers crossed.

[On the Shelf @otscollectors]

Super excited about this. It is not directly game related, but gaming adjacent. We are definitely NOT trying to break into the limited publishing business. There are enough good companies doing that already.
