"Fresh", sealed copies of Super Mario RPG actually have a unique title screen. This screen is lost permanently on that cartridge after playing and saving just once, and can not be restored without tinkering with the cartridge or waiting decades for the save battery to run out.

XABUNGLE SIDE R IS OUT AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA youtu.be/V4DKW58NEyk

As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.

suwako!! #touhou

I've finished writing the newsletter, and it might be my favorite this year. Here's that link again: www.assignedmedia.org/newsletter

Earnest post: there is increasingly direct evidence that Trump participated in child sex trafficking or at least knew about it. He should resign, be impeached and removed from office, and prosecuted. Even if you don’t think that WILL happen it’s important to say publicly that it SHOULD happen.

We promised a big announcement today, and it'll take a few posts in a thread to introduce a big one... Project A-ko Perfect Collection 4K! A-ko in 4K is a big deal & this is probably our craziest kitchen sink disc yet, so let's have a quick introduction to what the release will be...

the emails from epstein say things like "thank god donald trump isnt exposing us. he knows more than anyone" and the headlines are like "it would seem, to some, that donald trump's name is mentioned in passing"

Solid portion of our team, including myself, are trans. Which hopefully shows with the fact the Main protagonist of Mars Vice is a trans man and the game is full of queer folks across the spectrums. Also fuck genAi, We make our games have meaning. bsky.app/profile/ruai...

very mildly amused at videogamepolls cropping out the mild upskirt. understandable. ig.

I went to meet the 'Rockstar 31', the developers who were suddenly fired from their work on GTA 6 for what the studio has described as gross misconduct. That's not what the workers call it though. They have another couple of words they prefer to use: union busting. www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9nO...

I wrote more words about how it feels to be a translator watching the games press report on AI and labor, coming from a field that's fought these battles for decades. It may look like I'm beating up on one outlet, but it's not about them; I've been trying to write this for me and my peers all year.

This vote has not happened yet. Call your Senators, especially your Democratic Senators, and tell them that a deal without protection NOW for health insurance tax credits is unacceptable.

"One Piece isn't political!" Okay. Anyway

tbh as much as official rereleases are good for accessibility, I also feel like a lot of people just won't play games if they don't have official versions and that's not great for culture. Everyone should be downloading random ROMs until they find that special one that breaks their brain wide open.

To Maya Imamori, Please know your fans overseas will do our best to support you. You do not deserve to be treated this way by the industry and those who do not see you as a victim of racism and misogyny. We love you and support you. You will always be our Gozyu Unicorn 🦄🖤🩷 #gozyuger

pre-writing a devastating obituary for your enemy is god-tier hating of a kind you don’t often see anymore. renaissance haterism. beautiful stuff.

You fucking people will let anyone off the hook for their violent hateful beliefs and all they have to do is say shiny words you like You’re all a bunch of Nazi tattoo forgiving, Jewish space lasers forgetting gullible marks getting played for fools As a Jew I suggest you all go fuck yourselves.

twinstar cyclone runaway like: "our entire way of life was invented by lesbians then we became incredibly patriarchal and heteronormative and haven't had an ounce of innovation since then" sometimes you gotta be unsubtle

For when you want to play Sega Genesis but with a controller with the form factor and dpad of a SNES pad - The SprintPad SG. Conversely, the Honey Bee SF-3 waits in the wings for those who want to Super Famicom but enjoy the big ol' joypads on the Sega side. Parallel universe refugees, both.

It’s about protecting trans people. Don’t turn it into a generic platitude and rob it of its meaning.

Meanwhile Toru Furuya dated a fan, physically abused her and demanded she abort their child for the sake of his career and still gets to play Amuro Ray. They'll even release ads telling you they're proud of it.

everyone needs to grow the fuck up and start playing pretend with toys

Thankfully, MY SNAP benefits seem to have gone through. I think that was less Trump blinking and more Newsom trying to score points; Viva la California. But that's no excuse to stop trying to feed hungry people. If I can get three players for D&D or one more for Valor, I'm running charity games.

Sunsonic 986-II - Famicom with a built-in CRT.

it's always funny to learn about old TV shows like this one, or I Dream of Jeanie, whose premise is nearly identical to a 2000's ecchi anime.

Rosalind Franklin died at 37 of ovarian cancer attributed to radiation exposure from the methods she & her assistant used to photograph a cross-section of the DNA double helix. Meanwhile, Watson won a Nobel off that work & survived to the ripe old age of 97 by simply: stealing those notes!

I think a Twinstar Cyclone Runaway anime by Science Saru would fix me.

librewolf.net is my daily driver; technically Firefox but forked hard enough I think they could maintain if Mozilla vanishes. www.netsurf-browser.org is theoretically also an option. NetSurf and ladybird.org are AFAIK the only non-Chromium, non-Mozilla browser engines under active development.

cannot emphasize this enough: we need to push the mainstream political discourse towards mass prosecution and execution of ice agents it doesn't really matter if they actually get killed by the state, but we need to build towards a society that widely agrees they *should* have been, morally

"World's first potential trillionaire has killed 600,000 people, including 400,000 children" is the only headline that anyone should ever read about Elon Musk

Important PSA re: the way content about trans people is often incorrectly flagged as sexual or pornographic, worth considering as you choose your settings. bsky.app/profile/vill...

ring racers 2.4 is out, it's pretty cool i think

Because SE's QA people are probably not in a position to defend themselves and their jobs in public, I want to spell out some of what it is they specifically do for us localizers, because nothing I've written here is rhetorical. SE QA acts as a final check on our work after translation and editing.

aw shit my hand slipped sorry yall warm-up for today

If we go on strike, our union of 12,000 workers are calling on customers to NOT BUY STARBUCKS. Sign our pledge to not cross a picket line and we'll send you local calls to action - nocontractnocoffee.org

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default. Here's how to turn it off. First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner
