Eight Bit Era: Volume One – The Launch, by Lucas M. Thomas. (Sorry there never was a Volume Two!)

Happy 40th anniversary to the NES! In 2006 — 19 years ago now! — I wrote a small book all about the system's launch on October 18, 1985. It got my foot in the door at IGN, leading to the beginning of my game journalism career! (Its digital version is on sale at NFMagazine.com if you're curious!)

Thanks for celebrating the 40th Anniversary release of the NES stateside! Thanks as well to our new followers and subs! We raided fellow Club CRT member @spacerobotarm.bsky.social !

See ya ‘round the internets!

Happy 40th NES!

Anhedonia is happening to all the people you know in real time.

Don’t let it happen to you, too.

Lastly, it's set in the Simpson's living room bc I'm a die-hard fan and made everyone put up with my endless references. For example, I thought it was important that we establish what Duardo looked like without his trademark glasses and this is what I made:

I’m the lady on the couch! Obviously Sparrow is my bb, but even though I wrote for all the Legends, I wrote a ton of Mirage and Pathfinder. What can I say, I love funny boys.

My wonderful former Narrative team at Apex Legends had this commissioned for me by the incredible @vinegarandsoda.bsky.social , one of my favorite comic artist's we've worked with. My heart is exploding. 🧵Here's an explanation of what's in the pic: 🧵
