Another piece, this time a flash from Nasa at 10K Foxes in Astoria. When she asked me if I wanted to change the cat breed, I knew I had to ask for a calico, so the colors are loosely based on Mochi.

She's saying 「たいやき～」 (taiyaki) and the fish is saying 「たいやきじゃねぇよ」 (I'm not taiyaki), I love it

Nasa's the artist did my leg ice cream in 2014, which is my favorite tattoo to this day, and I'm really happy to get another piece done by her.

Also, here's a Gum Nendoroid, which I grabbed for a good price after 100%-ing my Jet Grind Radio file from 2000.

HEY YOU!

I'd free her if I had somewhere to display her...

Polaroid occasionally will release a "duo-chrome" film pack swapping the typical white in b&w film for some other color. In honor of them recently releasing a purple variant, I busted out my old yellow 600 film, loaded it in my Polaroid Flip, and took some photos in and around Long Island City's Gantry Plaza State Park.

As a bonus, here's a black and white photo of a Virtual Boy.¹

My Game Boy Printer still has plenty of life left in it.

Power duo

Essentially a receipt printer for kids, the Game Boy Printer uses thermal paper (and 6 AA batteries) to print stamp-sized images from a surprisingly robust list of games. Of course, I had to run a few tests using my favorite subject with the classic Game Boy Camera/Printer combo, such as this multiprint test with 0 margin.

Triple Mochi

Just for fun, here are some images from Super Mario Bros. Deluxe (top/middle) and Austin Powers: Oh, Behave! (bottom), the latter of which has a modes where you can just print whatever you type on screen, and even a "realtime" calculator feature that prints as you enter calculations. Developed by Rockstar, the game is presented like a mobile "OS" and is bizarre in its own right, but maybe I'll write about it another time (plus its companion game, Welcome to My Underground Lair, because every Game Boy title needed two versions in a post-Pokemon world).

Super Austin Powers Bros Deluxe

Finally, a handful of games have illustrations that you can print, such as Link's Awakening DX and Pocket Puyo Puyo~n.

Pocket Puyo Puyo~n, currently the best way to get a tiny, low-res printout of Arle

Some of the fun is lost without the sticker backing of the original printer paper but hey tape exists.
