ICYMI, after 7 months of work, @aid1043.bsky.social finished their English translation patch for all eight Kingdom Hearts Mobile keitai minigames! Preserved last year, this patch even contains recreations of cut content, like bonus puzzles and downloadable cards! (Video credit to Aid)

Trans rights are civil rights. If you aren't willing to die on the hill of trans rights, then you aren't willing to die on the hill of Black rights. Of Jewish rights. Of disabled rights. Of gay rights. Of anyone's rights. Human rights.

being a decent engineer only took 8 years of writing.

I’ve never forgiven EGM for their OutRun 2 review scores… 👀

Also, OutRun 3 is late… 🚘

She was pretty big a couple of years ago when she got a limited edition full size 1.76m tall standee to coincide with the Japanese Taito LD Collection😉

In a bizarre turn of events though, they used Reika dressed as an air hostess, which was advertising for Top Landing, rather than her own game✈️

Absolutely, it can assist with co-hosting the podcast

I also have an update for Jim Power, cause someone from the Insert Credit forums was able to identify the pretty face in the background. (It's from An American Werewolf in London) samderboo.com/tracing.php?... #TracingTheInfluence

Whoops, guess who found out extremely belatedly there's been a working Idolmaster cabinet in my old stomping grounds in Osaka this entire time and that I can, in fact, advance Azusa's ongoing career more than once a year after all. Definitely didn't dump 500 yen into it and play an hour straight. 🥹

a bunch of libertarians set out to make a blockchain social media paradise for the crypto bourgeois but instead their dad abandoned them and their house got overrun by transsexuals

what romancing saga and battle garegga demonstrate is that if you take a normal videogame and attach it to a black box that you must appease with mysterious rituals or else it kills you, you are left with a masterpiece

People out here sucking Satan's cock and justifying it by saying their mouth is a decentralized network

40,000 followers playing the latest Sylvie game. Fording through the mud

But what if...

"you don't want to go back to the internet of the early 2000s because you forgot how bad message board drama would get" after seeing how much that one RetroAchievements thread blew up and all the people posting screencaps I think secretly this is what a lot of people badly miss about that era lmao

i feel like anyone who's ever gone on those tedious rants about how jrpg gameplay isn't really gameplay and is just sort of there to provide a little texture for the story, which is completely compartmentalized from the rest of the game, owes it to us to play more of the genre or stop talking

we've officially hit a point where people are weird about chrono trigger. yes it is an excellent video game. i'm not claiming otherwise. but something happened after ff7 where JRPGs became the subject of the worst discourse imaginable and chrono trigger became enshrined as the only good one

i wouldn't be able to get through that list in a lifetime. my wishlist is at 800 and games there are like $15 on average

i've spent all year playing MAME and that's essentially free and infinite even after filtering out mahjong

there's guys at work who spend more going for a high score on Untappd

videogames is like the cheapest hobby there is if you ain't some sealed collector.

i've seen what guys who are into fishing, cars, or just power tools spend every season, including building a whole second garage for their toys.

this is still the greatest work of games criticism ever produced

My drop-in USB circuit board for the SEGA Dreamcast Twin Stick works!

It's completely reversible, and works with the PS4 and Xbox 360 versions of Virtual-On, as well as on PC!

Taito New Years Card 1994 by the developers of RayForce. text reads 'taito 1994, we are giving this game to you. for all of game freaks.'

I feel like this should be a bigger story. Either the USPS screwed up (not out of the question) or Play-Asia, a major global game retailer, just got caught using A LOT of fake postage

Apparently there is a kiosk at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame where you can nominate bands.

SHONEN KNIFE went and nominated themselves. Bad ass.

An advertisement for "friend", a horrible AI pendant thing, described as "friend [noun] someone who listens, responds, and supports you." has been graffitied to say "Go Make Real Friends", "This is surveillance!", and "AND IS *ALIVE* - AI FUELS ISOLATION! REACH OUT INTO THE WORLD!"

If you put this in a movie, you would rightfully be called out for your hackneyed and overwrought writing

a tekken 3 arcade cabinet, turned off with an a4 white paper typed out note taped to the screen. the note reads: no more tekken 3 until daikatana ships the management

Why Is the Big Bad of Bubble Bobble Named ‘Super Drunk’? — Thrilling Tales of Old Video Games Unpacking the rather surreal ending to the ‘pop-n-bop’ platformer classic.

It would be weird if Bubble Bobble were meant to have an anti-alcohol message. But it was also be weird if it didn't, given how the ending plays out.

This is literally just how the entire rental property passive income slumlord industry works today
