Power Dolls CV: Double helpings Kimimi published a supporter-only post on Ko-fi!

What the heck is Power Dolls CV, should you want it, and why does it include a whack-a-mole minigame? Let me explain:

Yep! So cool!!

Yeah! It's worth looking through the rest of them too, they're great :D

Haha, yep, I know he's due for a visit to a nice microchip farm in the next county over soon :V Although my stream chat says the real Megadroid left after his redesign, this one's just an imitator~

This is canon now :V

The single-page Akira comic from Fighters Mega Book, a Japanese guidebook. In it, Akira fights with an unknown combatant using his signature moves like the Tetsuzanko with onomatopoeia FU! FLAP! HUNK! FU! HA! and CRASHHH punctuating each hit. With the combatant on the ground, Akira says, "U too early as 10 year!".

The single-page Grace comic from Fighters Mega Book, a Japanese guidebook. In it, a man asks Grace in her civillian clothes, "How about enjoy a cup of tea with me?" to which she responds, "I don't like whimpy guys like you". He says, "Whimp? Who me? Though I look this way, I have enter into the next "Nuts Crack." [This is the name of the fighting tournament that takes place in Fighting Vipers]. Grace kicks him with a resounding KRAK as he shouts OUCH! and WOOOO. Blowing a kiss with a CHUP, Grace says, "See? I told you that you are a whimp."

The single-page Bark comic from Fighters Mega Book, a Japanese guidebook. In it, Bark's air conditioning unit is broken with a sign reading "Break down" as he swelters, commenting "The heat will kill me". He makes a phone call, asking, "Oh, hello? Electric shop? I want to order some things..." and a load of refridgerators are delivered to him, to which he excitedly says, "Yeah! How about this!! This must be cool!". However, he only has one electrical outlet, commenting, "OH, SHIT!"

The single-page Hornet comic from Fighters Mega Book, a Japanese guidebook. In it, the Hornet and Gallop cars are racing with a VROOOOM!! as the commentator says, "It's the final lap of this race!! But we still don't know what'll happen. Is it the Hornet? Or the Gallop?" followed by a close-up of Hornet's water temp dial. The engine explodes with a BOM! and the commentary continues, "Oh! The Hornet has blow! And the hood has blown away! Is this the end for the Hornet? The goal is right there. Who is the champ?". With a PUT... PUT... PUT..., Hornet makes it past the finish line, with the commentary ending, "It's the Hornet! The Hornet has cut the goal smoking! Even though the engine has blown, it has reach the goal at top posession Hornet! Your cool!!"

A selection of the English comics drawn by Kou Ozawa used before each character section in Fighters Mega Book, a movelist and guide to the Saturn game, Fighters Megamix. They're all in English too!

[This is Megadroid. The Gaming Hell Stream is back to reading Sonic the Comic, starting from March 1998's Issue 126. Is this the last time we'll see Decap Attack...?]

I should've known Data East would provide a more absolute unit than the Bermuda Triangle ship :V

This week's Arcade Archives release is SNK's 1987 vertical shmup Bermuda Triangle. With the biggest ship you've ever seen in a shmup, use the Loop Lever controls to aim in all directions and destroy everything in your path!

(I finished the game in just under 5 hours BTW! It's my 2nd time finishing it, it definitely feels like a game shifted quickly from one console to another and it's messy, but really fascinating!)

I can't stress enough that this work literally relies on subs/tips to keep going. Not in a "Make it worth my while" kind of way, but more a "I need to be housed and fed to write" situation. So if you do enjoy my work and you've got a little bit to spare, please consider clicking!

A cropped screenshot of a statistics page on my website. The text reads "2025 in review" and says I've published 107 posts, containing 169.8K words.

There's still plenty more to come but I was curious about my website "wrapped" so here are the most important stats! I've publicly published 107 articles so far this year, containing a novel's worth of text - I'm quite pleased with that!

YouTube video by DeoxysPrime Death Egg's Eye (Never Let it Go) - Sonic the Fighters [OST]

The next stage is Metal Sonic on the Death Egg II, and the theme there, Death Egg's Eye ~ Never Let It Go is probably my favourite in the game, it's so good! Anyway, play Sonic the Fighters

YouTube video by DeoxysPrime Giant Wing (Fire Stone) - Sonic the Fighters [OST]

For #OSThursday... Sonic's stage theme in Sonic the Fighters , Giant Wing ~ Fire Stone stands out a bit, it's quite dramatic, isn't it? In-game though, it makes sense- Sonic is the final opponent before the bosses. This fight should have some gravitas, huh?

Routine review Retrofuturistic style and unsettling horrors can't quite send Routine into orbit.

Here's my review of freshly-released horror game Routine!

GAMING THINGS WE THINK ARE COOL!! - Amy's "Heads Up!" move in Sonic the Fighters (hold Barrier, Up, Down, release Barrier + Punch) drops a random item from the sky.

There's a small chance that item is a disembodied Bean head with heartstruck eyes. So you can drop Bean's head on Bean.
