Thanks to The Frog For Whom The Bell Tolls, we now know what un-pasted wasabi looks like. Definitely did not think this icon was a shrimp or a dangar held up by balloons.

Did a marathon this weekend and finished Frog For Whom The Bell Tolls on my old GBA (via flashcart & translated rom). Fun stuff. Gonna write up a bit for @yokoikids.bsky.social

I know Frog For Whom The Bell Tolls is a very wordy game. But we love all the BIG TEXT parts.

For Whom The Frog Tolls – Edgard Rodriguez A silly little thing Edgard put together. yokoikids.wordpress.com/2026/06/09/f...

We at Yokoi Kid HQ love a good drawing of a game map. Here's another cracker from the Frog For Whom the Bell Tolls. archive.org/details/kaer...

Ready for this months @yokoikids.bsky.social Surprisingly, this game is not an early rhythm game where you press A & B in time w/ Metallica's hits, nor is it a GameBoy visual novel retelling Hemingway's classic w/ an all-frog cast during the Spanish Civil War. Instead it’s a Zelda-esque action RPG!

This months @yokoikids.bsky.social game is one Ive been wanting to try for a while, so I'm in! Almost didn't get the chance to play it on the go because the micro SD card for my Everdrive shot out like a rocket when I ejected it & I couldn't find it for like 20 minutes but it's all good. 😅

Just a very normal Japanese commercial for The Frog For Whom the Bell Tolls. youtu.be/waIqIY9jtIQ?...

That's the game I keep in my Analogue Pocket.

New month! New Game! And here's Ian and Rick to tell you about it. @itsmerickv.com @ianferguson.bsky.social yokoikids.wordpress.com/2026/06/01/j...

We just noticed the music that plays when you die in Animaniacs is the Pinky & The Brain theme. Shocking, because we heard this music a lot. fi.zophar.net/soundfiles/g...

Animaniacs by Josh Nickerson @joshnickerson83.bsky.social yokoikids.wordpress.com/2026/05/26/a...

Animaniacs is full of the absolute dumbest puzzles where you end up looking at walkthroughs just to figure out. Like, how the hell do I jump over this randomly placed film camera?

You know, some of the cutscenes in Animaniacs are actually pretty funny.

October 2023 – Hammerin’ Harry: Ghost Building Protocol (1993) Still no submissions about Animaniacs. But @itsmerickv.com noticed a huge error in our backlog. yokoikids.wordpress.com/2026/05/19/o...

Nolen has made a new Animaniacs puzzle in the old Kidscross section. Go complete it! www.picross.net/yokoi/?pl=20...

We love the little animation of Wacko taking his head off if you aren't pressing any buttons. There's a name for this I bet.

Alleyway: Do Bricks Dream of Concrete Sheep? – Ian Ferguson @ianferguson.bsky.social There are no Animaniacs submissions so far, so we are posting an article that was EXCLUSIVE to Yokoi Kids Volume 2 with an illustration by Tom Bifulco. yokoikids.wordpress.com/2026/05/12/a...

Animaniacs takes full advantage of the Super Game Boy, adding a custom border, more colors, and using the snes sound chip for the music! It's one of the few SGB games that actually disables the ability to swap colors during the game.

Ol' @itsmerickv.com will be slingin' whatever is left of the Yokoi Kids zines at Halftone Zine Fest in KY.

Did you know that Factor5 has a section on their website about the secrets in the games they made? Check out the Animaniacs section for some helpful cheat codes! www.factor5.de/secrets_animaniacs.shtml

Socials round up for Godzilla! yokoikids.wordpress.com/2026/05/05/g...

Pete Plev coming in clutch with another manual link for the game of the month. www.thegameisafootarcade.com/wp-content/u... If you're stuck on the first level, this might help!

Another month, another game! Josh and Ian tell you more: yokoikids.wordpress.com/2026/05/01/m...

Folks, don't forget to do Nolen's Picr....NANOGRAMS puzzle for April. You'll never guess what it is! www.picross.net/yokoi/

Some folks did not like the Godzilla game. But they can't deny that this song is great. fi.zophar.net/soundfiles/g...

Game Boy Godzilla – Josh Nickerson A nice illustration of Godzilla taking a little break by @joshnickerson83.bsky.social yokoikids.wordpress.com/2026/04/28/g...

The superior Japanese Game Boy version Gojira-kun: Kaijū Daikōshin is based off a manga that Nicholas Driscoll wrote a LONG review of back in 2022. www.tohokingdom.com/blog/sd-godz...

Godzilla Hates Rocks - Nolen Tabner @nolentabner.bsky.social

Stumped – Oscar Natividad "I missed this game as a kid, and could not wrap my mind around Godzilla being unable to jump." yokoikids.wordpress.com/2026/04/21/s...

Our past contributor Alex made a peeped the various different region covers for Godzilla. @mendi-draw-bal.bsky.social

Another rare occasion where the US manual is cooler than the Japanese version. Here's the JP manual for Godzilla. (Shout out to Pete Plev for finding it) gamemanual.midnightmeattrain.com/entry/%E3%82...

Digital Cards in a Digital Sleeve – Johnny Ketchum We haven't had any contributions for Godzilla yet, but here's something new about Pokemon Trading Card Game from Johnny Ketchum and Robin Enrico. @gnarlsincharge.bsky.social @robinhoodie.bsky.social yokoikids.wordpress.com/2026/04/14/d...

I mentioned both, but I really hoped people would try for this end screen, which you only get via the English version.

@yokoikids.bsky.social the Japanese version is a very different and much better experience. I’m ACTUALLY enjoying playing Godzilla.

The Godzilla manual has little screenshots of the movie. That’s kinda rare. www.gamesdatabase.org/Media/SYSTEM...

GODZILLA COMPILE 1990 (Captured on Game Boy Pocket) Shout-out @yokoikids.bsky.social game of the month

We learned that the Japanese version of Godzilla (Gojira-kun: Kaijū Daikōshin) is not only cooler, it also has better game mechanics. Here's a boisterous Youtuber to explain. youtu.be/mG_l6BHRKwU?...

Bionic Commando Socials Round Up Various things that were posted about Bionic Commando last month. yokoikids.wordpress.com/2026/04/07/b...

4 more spot illustrations for a future @yokoikids.bsky.social 'zine. Drawing Kirby is deceptively difficult.

This is just an absolutely great advertisement for Godzilla.

New month! New Game! Here's Ian and Jeffrey Brown to tell you about it. @jeffbrown82.bsky.social @ianferguson.bsky.social yokoikids.wordpress.com/2026/04/01/a...

Bionic Commando – The Sultan of Swing by Jeff Brown "Platformers that don’t allow jumping are fun because they force you out of your comfort zone..." @jeffbrown82.bsky.social Illustration by @joshnickerson83.bsky.social yokoikids.wordpress.com/2026/03/31/b...

Pete beat Bionic Commando (with save states). Has anybody else gotten far?

This promo for a Capcom MAY HAVE come with Bionic Commando.

Bionic Comandown – Rick V. @itsmerickv.com The baddies in Bionic Commando are both horrified and impressed. yokoikids.wordpress.com/2026/03/24/b...

How many times have you been playing Bionic Commando and hit Descend instead of Transfer?

It has been pointed out that this is a banger of a track. youtu.be/SsGQCCUoa38?...
