If your own backlog is bursting but your willpower is weak, you’ve got company. Stay safe, save often (with a Basic Campfire Kit), and see you Monday. [HEADING=1][B]This Day in Gaming 🎂[/B][/HEADING] In retro news, I’m using the flickering backlight of [I]Columns'[/I] jewel-matching chain reactions to light a 34-candle cake for the [B]Sega Game Gear[/B]. Back in 1991, this chonky so-and-so arrived with colour visuals that made the Game Boy look like a sad calculator, and I remember being floored by the novelty of portable [I]Sonic[/I] in full RGB. That said, the dream of a portable, kinda-sorta Mega Drive came with a few cruel trade-offs. Battery life was a running joke, the screen ghosted like a séance, and good games were oddly thin on the ground. Still, I can't overstate how futuristic it felt to leave my Game Boy at home and play this on a school bus. It was the ultimate brag until all six (!!!) AAs invariably died in next to no time. Aussie birthdays for notable games. - [B]Sega Game Gear[/B] launch, 1991.

Ubisoft threw their zaniest Rabbids at Nintendo’s biggest IP, let [I]XCOM[/I]-style combat cook, and somehow didn’t mess it up. Meanwhile, [I]Doom Eternal[/I] on handheld still boggles my brain. Panic Button’s porting wizardry turns the console into a demon-slaying miracle machine.
