Yes, September’s going to be ridiculous. Ludicrous, even.
I got the GDQ live experience for most of the week (thanks, massive back injury!) and I’ll add recommendations for the Super Mario 3 race (especially the ending) and Pikmin 3. Also, why did they run Mega Man 8 outside of the Crap Block (I suppose it was the Japanese version…)?

QotW: Most of my setup is based on the fact that the couch in my apartment separates the living room and dining room, so I just have the systems there.
- That is to say, the systems are on a stand about… four feet from the couch.
I try not to play game in bed often, as I have a tendency to fall asleep. When I do, I just have two pillows under my head. I, too, have a pair of chest cushions to help me hold up a handheld. 😛
Lately I’ve been playing a lot World of Warcraft on my PC trying to get last-minute mage tower challenges finished before the pre-patch arrives and the rewards become permanently unavailable. So instead of playing other games in bed (handheld or not), I play them on the exercycle where I can at least get some exercise to counter all the sedentary PC gaming.
QOTW: I don’t play RPGs in bed a whole lot. However, on the couch, I have a particular setup. I have a gaming ottoman which converts to a small chair (handy for games like Xenoblade Chronicles X that have tiny fonts necessitating close proximity to the screen) and I’ll usually have laptop or tablet for looking things up or watching Netflix while grinding, a journal for taking notes, at least a couple of cat toys in case I need to distract a feline during play, a comfy pillow, and all the remotes/controllers so I don’t have to get up to change systems. Sometimes I’ll even have a portable as well in case I change my mind and want to watch TV and swap to playing portably. So basically I just accumulate the majority of my household electronic entertainment devices next to the couch when I play. Comfort is apparently having options without having to move.
