Winter gaming

First snow today. I'd take a picture but for some reason I can't find my camera. I'd use my phone except it's rather crappy. Oh well
Yesterday was payday, which if you know me, meant that yesterday was also a trip to EB Games. Lacking anything new for the PS3 (Couldn't care less about MW2 or AC2), I decided to pick up a GameCube game to play on my Wii. I've typically been a Sega and Sony gamer, but this gen I ended up buying a Wii first. Point is, never got too much into the GameCube except for melee at the old apartment. Enter The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. A game I mocked for its cartoony graphics, but never actually did play.
Not too far into the game, but I don't hate it. Not fond of the camera though. I don't mind the auto camera, but the problem I have is when I switch to free camera mode. When I want to go back to auto, instead of the game just detecting my lack of camera control movement, I have to L-target to turn it off. Minor? Yes. Annoying. Also yes. I'll live.
During Thanksgiving break, I also ended up buying a game for my DS. To make a long story short, one of my female friends more or less bought the game for me, and well, it's kind of addicting. The game is also designed for teenage girls, so it's a bit weird to play, and embarrassing to talk about. The game is Style Savvy , and I'm actually enjoying playing it. The shocking part of all this is, it actually is a pretty solid game, even if you are not comparing the game to anything for a Nintendo system that has Imagine slapped to it.
Also on the Winter playlist: Demon's Souls, Borderlands, Atelier Annie, and Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga.
Next time I update, I'll probably discuss last months experiments with trying to make tamagoyaki.

First post

Greetings, welcome to Amagi Inn, a blog named for no particular reason other than a passing Persona 4 reference and because Broken Wriststraps was a name that cited an old reference. Besides, I haven't touched my Wii in years.
For starters, my name is Scott. I'm in my early 20s. I work as a coo/bartender/waiter/manager at a locally owned restaurant. I like video games, cooking, football (the real kind of football, not that soccer garbage), and anime. I also like to try different foods. My current obsession is sushi. Now, you may think that makes me a Japanophile. You are wrong, I just happen to like anime and sushi. I also like tacos, pizza, and other varieties of food. I also like other various things that have nothing to do with that country.
I am slightly overweight and currently trying to remedy that problem. I'm attending a community college taking only two classes. Currently I'm trying to decide between sociology or baking. It's a conundrum but hopefully I'll figure something out.
I could go on about my personality and put on a greater focus about my interests, beg you to subscribe and tell your friends about this blog, or just do something random, but instead I'm just going to close here and say welcome.
