Came back from Japan with a suitcase full of kanji training apps. Currently using the top right premium app as it has IMO the best UX for teaching to write if you didn’t learn in school but curious if anyone here has a favorite DS app for practicing kanji #japanese #kanji #languagelearning

Food photo dump from the end of the trip. Two amazing bowls of noodles and also Jojo themed mochi?

Flying back home after a very fun two weeks. As usual after an event I feel reenergized and exciting about the future of games. I will miss the food but it’s been too long since I’ve seen my wife and my dog.

Can’t believe TGS is nearly over. Had another amazing day of showing Milano and Micro Mages and networking with other indies. Then had an amazing team ramen dinner followed by sick deals at the local book off. Got this kanji game for less than 1/3 what it goes for on eBay.

TGS day 3: I met the prince!!! Also drew a little Waluigi on the board near the indie game area

When I first started in gaming, I was so jealous that my bosses at Namco had business cards in both English and Japanese. Now I have achieved this and am presenting my work at Tokyo Game Show. I feel as though after 20 years finally I’m a real game developer.

Setting up the @implicitconversions.com @morphcat.bsky.social booth now! Come find us at Selected Indie 80, Hall 9 booth E-24 and play some retro games!

Today was so fun! I met my italki sensei in person after more than a year of zoom classes and went for a hike with her and her husband in Arima Onsen. Then I went back to Tokyo and ate some amazing cold crab ramen and also found two kanji games I was looking for at the Akiba Book Off.

Couple fun finds from the Osaka area shops today. I’m very pumped about this Club Nintendo DK stylus since I’ve been mostly using the 3DS to practice kanji lately and it feels like holding a regular pen

It’s very disheartening to hear so many people say “日本語上手” to me when I know my Japanese is still beginner level. On the other hand I guess I choose to believe they say this to foreigners simply as a way to acknowledge that they appreciate the effort to learn and speak their language, even if badly

Greetings from Koshien Stadium, the oldest professional baseball stadium in Japan. I’ve now been to games at three different Japanese stadiums, and this one definitely had the best fans and atmosphere. The stadium has no upper deck so everyone is crammed in like sardines in one huge ring.

It’s a beautiful day in Kyoto! I spent the morning walking around Uji drinking iced tea and buying some souvenirs, then took another visit to the incredible Nintendo Museum. It was so much better the second time! Now I’m back relaxing at Marufukuro before dinner time.

First dinner of the trip was beef offal omakase. This chef was so nice and the food was unbelievable. I love seeing what people can do with cuts that most chefs would never touch.

I was actually planning to wait until lunch to get ramen, but after getting coffee I was walking through Tsukiji and couldn’t resist this delicious looking seafood ramen shop. I got the mazesoba with sauce made from their special Hiroshima oyster soup. Now I’m off to Kyoto for a couple days!

On my way to Japan for TGS + a bit of vacation. Prepare for many food photos shortly. And if you go to TGS come find Implicit Conversions at the Select Indie 80 area to check out Micro Mages, Milano, and more!

Really proud of this little project I just finished. I hacked the ROM for Vs. Gradius so that when the cabinet is set to free play, it shows the attract mode rather than simply sitting on a static screen as all Vs. System games do. In addition to reducing burn-in, it makes the cabinet look sweet!

Waluigi made it into the NYT crossword puzzle before making it into the smash bros roster smdh

My company developed the emulation/port of my favorite childhood MK game! I still have my strategy guide from back in the 90s 🐉🤜💀🩸Can’t wait to get it on my Switch 2!

One of the things I’ve been up to for the past couple months. Very excited to finally be able to talk about it. This game has such beautiful pixel art and I really hope people love it when they can finally play in English! We are working hard to make these classics available to everyone!

Ever wonder why your favorite retro game hasn’t made a comeback? From community requests to legal hurdles, here’s what we can share about bringing the past back to life 👇 www.implicitconversions.com/blog/the-bus...

I love my job, I just had like an hour-long slack discussion with two coworkers debating whether its correct for an emulator to force 4:3 aspect ratio or not. It's great to work with people who care so much about details in how old games should be presented.

We created an SDK based on the Syrup Emulation Engine which allows you to run legacy console games (NES, SNES, Genesis, Gameboy, PS1, etc.).on modern platforms If you have a retro console game and you'd like to get it running on PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, XBox, please reach out!

🎄🎅 The holidays are here! And so are the sales 👀 Pick up Micro Mages on PlayStation 4 & 5 today for 40% off! If you're a PlayStation+ subscriber, you can snag an additional 10%!

We're super stoked for the next publicly announced games on our slate - we're partnering with the heroes at @limitedrungames.bsky.social to bring these games to PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, and Steam! 🔫👣 Fear Effect 💪🪑 Fighting Force 1 👊👥 Fighting Force 2

I found the Wario of malls in Shinjuku

Show me your pet and what they were named after.

More Kyoto: the world’s most amazing pancake, fall foliage, and… skibidi?

Ate some amazing kaisen-don at Tsukiji market and for dinner we went to this awesome gyoza restaurant in Kyoto. Next couple days we have some incredible meals planned in Kyoto so very excited for the food to come…

Japan day 3: A business partner took me to his favorite shoyu ramen shop that he’s been eating at for 20 years, and for dinner we ate various grilled meats. We got beef rump, pork tenderloin, and the best slice of Studio-Ghibli-bacon I’ve ever seen in my life.

In the past two weeks I have been told by native Japanese speakers that I have excellent handwriting and intonation. I know they are just being polite but it makes me feel really good about continuing to study Japanese!

Japan food day 2: I ate some amazing katsu don for lunch and had some really outstanding shio ramen with soup made from red snapper. The flavor of the fish made the broth taste really unique and also the noodles were thin but had an incredibly satisfying bite to them.

Way back in summer of 2006 when I was working as a QA tester, I used to listen to Asian Kung Fu Generation every day in my car while driving home from El Segundo on the 105 freeway. I discovered them by playing imported Japanese music games. Nearly 20 years later I finally got to see them live!

A friend recommended that I find a good eel restaurant since it’s hard to find in the US. I ended up going for dinner and getting the skewer omakase plus grilled shiitake mushrooms. It was so delicious! The liver and the bite with the egg and shiso were particularly good.

Day 1 of my trip to Japan. I randomly stumbled upon a sweet Death Stranding popup art exhibit and had some amazing ramen. Also found the most based coffee shop. More pics to follow in thread.

Thank you all so much for coming to the first ever Booyah Bay! It was so nice seeing so many new faces!

Had such a fun time playing Splatoon at Booyah Bay in San Jose!!! I can’t wait for the next one.

I helped with bringing this NES indie gem to PS4 and PS5. I really hope people play it and love it!

Starting a new job tomorrow bringing old games to life on modern hardware via emulation at Implicit Conversions, so seems a good time to clean my gross keyboard.

Merry Christmas from Santa’s elf 🎄🦊

I’m a man of few holiday traditions but the most sacred to me is placing Waluigi atop the Christmas tree.
