Wolfenstein 3D (PC / id Software / 1992)

Square-Enix scanned the original Chrono Trigger production artworks and made a video containing very very close-up shots of them. an opportunity to see Toriyama linework/colorwork in such fine detail is a real treasure www.youtube.com/watch?v=gDI_...

BREAKING: Disney+ is to replace the two-season run of Andor with a recut version that runs for only five minutes, and is just Mon Mothma apologising profusely to Darth Vader for any inconvenience, and letting him have whatever he wants.

It's time to do that thing you've been wanting to do

Imagine firing qualified educators because they hated a white supremacist . Fucking unreal.

I have very fond memories of playing these kiosk demos in stores, whether it was craning my neck up at a big-box store or playing on one of those futuristic kiosks at GameStop!

Mercury Steam did a great job with Metroid Dread and all, but anyone else want to see Team Cherry make a Metroid game too? 2D? Hand drawn? I’d buy two.

Starting November 1st, New Mexico will become the first state to offer free universal childcare to all its residents. It's expected to save families over $12,000 per child annually. This is a huge step forward — and a reminder that we have the power to fix the system.

God damn, remember when amiibo were like $13 new?

Pretty good #NintendoDirect! Was hoping for more time with #Metroid, but at least we have a release date! Was hoping to fly the gunship around, but the bike does look cool too. Also stoked to finally play some virtual boy games on a big screen…you can play them without the accessory…right? Right?

SAMUS HAS A MOTORCYCLE

Virtual Boy Nintendo Classics announced for Switch/Switch 2. Requires Virtual Boy accessory. Out Feb 17th. Accessory sold for NSO members in the future. Cardboard model also available

I am equal parts shocked and delighted by this virtual boy announcement. 🤩

Ever played Oregon Trail online? Or looked up a vanished web site? 💾 👋 On @eff.org 's How to Fix the Internet, Internet Archive's founder, @brewster.kahle.org, shares why preserving our digital memory — and building a “Library of Everything” — is his life’s work. 🎧 www.eff.org/deeplinks/20...

RIP Moorwing. First you beat me, then I beat you, then you made a beat for all of us. This is the kind of glitch that makes the game experience better, not worse. 🤣 #silksong

I was a die-hard Nintendo fanboy as a kid, but even back then I could admit that this was the coolest sound in the entire world.

Look, if I do a perfect run back to the last judge, she should respect that effort and just let me win. #silksong

It’s always a sign of good game design when you enter a new area and can tell just from the atmosphere that you’re not supposed to be there yet. But see, I’m playing Hollow Knight Silksong, and I’m at the point where those scary areas are the only places I can see left to go 😬

One of the most famous and influential video games of all time released in the US 28 years ago today: Happy birthday to Final Fantasy VII! Check out these three 30 second cinematic spots, complete with movie trailer voice! Seems they were keen to take some shots at the film industry, huh? #FFVII

So Hollow Knight Silksong is amazing, but dear god these bosses are giving me trouble. Spent awhile on one, finally made it through only to met almost immediately by another that was even faster….AND THEN I FIND OUT THE HARD WAY THAT IT HAS A STAGE 2

Nice

So I doubt he’s dead, but it really can’t be that far off…which begs the question: do you think they’ll pull a “weekend at Donnie’s?”

Very fun dynamic where anytime someone takes a stand against the criminal president who commits four hundred crimes a day they get subjected to intense scrutiny by the media over a parking ticket they got in 1987

We have 13 pages of the Metroid Prime comic that Dreamwave made for Nintendo Power Magazine. We are bringing them to #PAXWest2025 Making this the first time we have physically displayed the art... anywhere!

Even if the 🍊🤡 croaks 🐸 we still have to deal with the rest of the circus in the big top.🎪

In 2002 I was 12 years old and hanging on every word of my Nintendo Power subscription, so I was beyond pumped for this game. I didn’t get a GameCube until sometime in 2002 either, so this was among the first games I remember having.

Well, you could use AI .... ... or, after a billion years of this industry existing, you could reduce the scope, improve project management, remove unnecessary bloat, stop the graphics arms race, and instead keep making games people enjoy and respect the artists making them.

So glad we were able to grab this for the Hit Save archive. Seeing debut footage of the Nintendo GameCube and GBA months prior to launch is seriously cool. I know this tape already exists on YouTube, but preservation benefits from redundancy!

Happy birthday to Too Human, which released 17 years ago today! The game was originally slated for the PS1 before development shifted to the Gamecube, and then finally landed on the Xbox 360 roughly a decade after development began! Check out this video from when it was still meant to be a GCN game!

In 2005, we used the internet. In 2025, the internet uses us.

I do not know how people managed before the ability to look up DIY how-to videos. At this point the vast majority of my YT history is calmly competent people slowly and clearly explaining to me, a bumbling fool, how to carry out basic maintenance jobs around the house.

Gosh I sure hope YouTube recognizes my 18-year-old account as one belonging to an adult. I guess I just have to hope that all those Batman and DBZ clips I watch are offset by...*checks history* "How to Change Windshield Wipers," "How Does a VCR Work," and "Is the 2025 Housing Crash Really Here Now?"

They would fire a ship's captain for saying they've run aground before admitting the route was never navigatable to begin with.

Elon Musk donated $15 million to Republican and pro-Trump super PACs...in just a single day. That’s roughly 0.00375% of his total net worth. Oligarchs can spend pennies to rig the system in their favor at the expense of everyone else. We must get Big Money out of politics.

Newgrounds' approach to verifying age is interesting and transparent.

About time!!

The further away we get from the launch of the Switch 2, the more increasingly baffled I become regarding the absence of Mario Paint on the SNES app. The mouse controls are RIGHT. THERE.

Evergreen post

An AI slop factory apparently tried to rewrite our article about AI not replacing workers en masse, but hit the paywall... so just summarised the paywall. If this is the robot that takes my job I'll be v embarrassed

First Game Boy commercial recreated with LEGO Game Boy

Video game marketing in the 90s was a hell of a thing. Who recognizes this classy fellow?

Name five games you'd play at any time. Not your top 5 of all time, just five games you'd play any time. Super Smash Bros (any version) Tetris Blast (GB) Fortnite (multiplatform) A Jackbox game Poker if Luigi’s dealing (Mario 64DS) A crossword puzzle

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

This tape was an absolute nightmare, so many damaged and shaky segments. Fortunately as a point of sale tape it contained the same video looped like 8 times, so I was able cut up all the versions and stitch together something that plays mostly fine. Gaze upon this image and share my suffering.

Just digitized a Sonic the Hedgehog 2 VHS that kicks off with this delightful clip. I know how vicious the console wars were here in the USA, but it's interesting to see what that competition between SEGA and Nintendo looked like in Japan too!

I'd never seen a V-Lite VHS before digitizing this tape. Was absolutely terrified it was going to fall apart in my VCR and I'd have to surgically transplant the actual tape into a different cassette, but fortunately everything worked out in the end!
