Got a feeling our dogs would get along in a park!

Nursing a cold with my dog faithfully playing nurse. She hasn't left my side since the first cough. We really don't deserve dogs.

One of the best new games for the ZX Spectrum, hands down. Fluid, beautiful and full of surprises, it's a must-have in any Speccy game collection.

Why, yes we do. Blimey.

I would enter that car without a second thought.

Chewits/The Muncher and Robocop.

I think he's referring to Car Builder for the Apple II, which did indeed feature a car that is, well, the Cybertruck itself.

Spectrum Next #Delphian progress: various changes, and it's starting to feel like a game. Controls and movement are now interrupt driven, so it'll always fly at the same speed no matter what the frame rate. Also added a compass and map coordinates, and added some cockpit graphics, but still WIP.

I’ve started adding some precompiled “.nex” demos in the library. I appreciate that not all will have the time to install z88dk to try these out. Just a cube at the moment. Will add more as I continue exploring the capabilities.

Blasphemy!

The seminal 90s CD was 7th Guest and I'm prepared to die on this hill.

What's with the horseshoe?

And they are playing Ultraman episodes on the TV surrounded by miniatures of old TV series and... Akira.

Japan is on a league of its own when the airport lounge features an arcade.

I rest my case.

Thanks for the link, great chat. I'm a sucker for his stuff, Ico is one of my all-time favourites.

Fumito Ueda – 2005 Developer Interview - shmuplations.com This long and wonderful interview with ICO and Shadow of the Colossus creator Fumito Ueda first appeared in vol. 25 of the excellent CONTINUE magazine in 2005, and was later compiled in a book of inte...

I remembered that Fumito Ueda (Ico, Shadow of the Colossus) was an Amiga person! He talks about it here, and how Amiga was used in the Japanese show ‘Ugo Ugo Ruga’

Yukihito Morikawa – 2000 Developer Interview - shmuplations.com This lengthy interview with Yukihito Morikawa discusses his early background, his past work as a CG artist, and his pioneering work on Ganbare Morikawa-kun.

speak of the devil, this just-translated interview covers the making of that very show, with plenty more Amiga talk shmuplations.com/yukihitomori...

I can see devs using Amigas for art production for the Megadrive era. Deluxe Paint still kicks to this day for pixel art, back then nothing compared to it.

I see where you're coming from...

No way... We got to document this shop. I would love to visit it!

I hoped he would still have some stuff to sell.

I thought it was X68000 all the way, but stands to reason due the Video Toaster's capabilities.

The owner of this Commodore Amiga store in Tokyo, whose door still features GVP and Video Toaster stickers, used to sell Amigas in Japan back when.

I've just walked into him closing the store to head to a filming, he's a video maker now.

What serendipity!

Wait, what is this place I've just stumbled upon in Tokyo?!?

I wholeheartedly agree with the kids!

Mr. Purple meets Col. Mustard at the Library.

Surely these guys can afford better haircare.
