I played PARANORMASIGHT: The Mermaid's Curse over the last few weeks. It's a MUST for fans of detective games, visual novels & mystery titles. Fun writing, lovely visual style and some truly WILD twists and gameplay elements! My full review for @nintendonwr.bsky.social 👇 youtube.com/watch?v=kjcY...

Come for the review, stay for one of Neal's best custom characters of all time.

This is how Sakurai wanted Smash Ultimate to be played.

I SHALL BECOME A VIRTUAL BOY

ALL. HAIL. THE. VIRTUAL. BOY.

EXCUSE ME? They just announced a *NEW* Legacy of Kain game and just did not show it during the State of Play, while also announcing a remake of another Legacy of Kain game? gameinformer.com/state-of-pla...

Like a murderer saying: "Yeah it is kind of a shame how I killed half this family. They seemed so nice!"

that's better

I wasn't really keeping an eye on PRAGMATA, but after trying the demo on both PS5 and Switch 2 it has got me very excited. Even better, that Switch 2 version plays incredibly well.

Hey everyone, I got laid off from my day job today so if anyone happens to know any paid work a podcast editor can do, let me know. Also like, an office job with benefits if you happen to have that, but some podcast editing would give me some breathing room.

It’s crazy the sheer number of supposedly rational people who were like “ok but it’s good at health stuff” early on.

Enshittifcation at work.

LOOK AT MY BESTEST BOY!

Occasionally I think I am a pretty decent cook. Behold my Kinder chocolate cheesecake!

This is a very wild choice for Guerrilla Games. But as a multiplayer game that visual style looks pretty amazing youtu.be/Wi_kz4MDG1o

Remember that tense, survival horror-esque dino game, Tokyo Scramble, they showed during the direct today? Do yourself a favor and watch the seperate trailer for it. It has a *wild* tonal choice. youtu.be/WZUTIaW_krA

Time for unrealistic expectations, the game.

Nintendo Direct: Partner Showcase announced – 05/02/2026 #NintendoToday nintendo.today/s/bVFZIyYX

Ik ben de officieuze recordhouder van de speedrun Freek Vonk% in Slide Stars. 🦈 165 minuten. 🕓 kleine-afleiding.nl/ik-ben-de-of...

I pulled off my costume the way Kojima intended

Video game music babbyyyyy

Blasphemy. How dare they change the colors of Virtual Boy. (unbelievable we're getting unreleased VB games in the year of our lord 2026 what is happening)

[NL] Vanmiddag ben ik te gast bij Radio 1 (Villa van den Berg) om te praten over hoe we bij Beeld & Geluid Nederlandse games archiveren en preserveren. Tussen 14:30-14:50 live te horen! www.nporadio1.nl/uitzendingen...

It's not every weekend that you get a full spread in the biggest newspaper in the north of the Netherlands. But this weekend you can read about me and my work in Dagblad van het Noorden / Leeuwarden Courant. Always happy to chat about the games archive at Beeld & Geluid! ✌️

Screw Mario Bros. Wonder. This is the release date I've been most anticipating.

Heard from a colleague today that her kids' elementary school class uses AI as slang to mean "disingenuous", "fake" or "unauthentic". "You're so AI" and "That's AI" as slang to one another. Maybe the kids are alright.

My partner is still awaiting the nostalgia boom for Diddl. She threw out all her Pokémon cards, but kept these sheets in pristine condition.

Het boek How A Game Lives van @jacobgeller.com verzamelt een aantal van zijn beste essays, becommentarieert ze en voorziet ze van verdere context. Het resultaat is een prachtboek - dat ook een lans breekt voor een diepgaandere gamekritiek. Recensie voor NRC. www.nrc.nl/nieuws/2026/...

AFTER ALL THESE YEARS!!

Northern Lights above Utrecht and they were visible and moving with the naked eye!

My first review of 2026 for @nintendonwr.bsky.social is on MIO: Memories in Orbit. An absolutely stunning audiovisual treat of a Metroidvania that was quite hard for me to truly love. Fans of this genre shouldn't overlook it however! 👇 www.nintendoworldreport.com/review/73964...

This is incredibly important. If you read one thing this week: marcusolang.substack.com/p/im-kenyan-...

It's arguably the most ever requested sountrack to get a vinyl release and now it's officially happening as @square-enix-games.com are releasing a Chrono Trigger 4LP soundtrack box set. Preorders opened out of the blue and are live now: blipblop.net/chrono-trigg...

Deze week hebben wij formeel het archief van de @dutchgamegarden.bsky.social in ontvangst mogen nemen bij Beeld & Geluid. Meer dan 17 jaar aan Nederlandse gamesgeschiedenis in een prachtige collectie, is nu voor de eeuwigheid raad te plegen in het archief! nieuws.beeldengeluid.nl/259669-beeld...

I've been working on redecorating and redesigning my home office for the past three weeks and it is finally done and I AM SO HAPPY WITH THE RESULT

Ongelofelijk triest dat na meer dan dertig jaar de merknaam Power Unlimited gaat verdwijnen. De (resterende) redactie wordt niet meegenomen. Doodzonde en boven alles enorm rot voor de mensen die hier jarenlang met hart en ziel hebben gewerkt.

We traveled back up to Edinburgh to be there as Rockstar Games and its fired union members took their case to court: www.youtube.com/watch?v=dnui...

Slightly diminish a game Pokemon Legends: Azelf

Slightly diminish a game Roommate Evil

Will this be how I finally learn street fighter proper? (On trains)

For the weekend crowd.

I do not understand how that Dragon Quest VII Reimagined Demo is four (!!!) hours long, but I'm completely and utterly hooked. It plays wonderfully with a great balance between classic RPG and modern QoL features. Can't wait to start the main game.

friends! acquaintances! help! i'm looking to hire a game designer (living in the Netherlands) to help build games in The Hidden Folks Universe, starting with a sequel to the indie hit game Hidden Folks. know someone who's a good fit? pls forward this, ty! hiddenfolks.com/job-opening/...

Waar games eerst gezien werden als kinder- en tienerspelletjes veranderde dat vanaf deze eeuw en werden games ook ‘grotemensencultuur’. Naast blockbusters als World of Warcraft en Call of Duty kwam er ook ruimte voor meer diverse en diepgaande, creatieve games. buff.ly/m49vf2C

My friend had to message me late last night that he finally cracked it. Remember that sick opening to Toy Story 2? That scene is revealed to be a video game that looks amazing, but Rex is playing with a terrible controller? Rex has to be playing a BUZZ LIGHTYEAR FMV GAME, like Dragon's Lair!

What a nice day for a walk
