Happy 40th anniversary to The Legend of Zelda.

As for Clock Tower: Rewind, let's add in all the regional console printings!

This is now the third Human Fun Club issue that I own, technically my fourth!

Thanks to fellow collector, @vjsmyth.bsky.social, I've got my hands on the Clear River Games printings for Clock Tower: Rewind, in addition to the rare CT2 issue of Human Fun Club, & the rare SFC ad! Scans coming in the future, & I'll have to plan a Rewind unboxing part 3 at some point! #クロックタワー

Only 4% of newly-built homes in Dublin last year ended up on the open market for sale. This is bonkers. The market is completely rigged in favour of "investors" (hoarders). jrnl.ie/6957916

I decided to speedrun Welcome to Dolltown and beat the game in under 30 minutes. The whole game has 3 mandatory fights where none of them let you do the wrestling moves. 2 are entirely missable. There is 10 minutes of real gameplay with about 20 minutes of mashing dialogue.

Random acts of kindness are always great to see! Be kind, do something nice for someone 💛

"people are allowed to do what they want with their $20" yes, and im allowed to complain about the obvious overcharge, point out game freak/pokemon company/nintendo's greedy, anti-consumer practices, and recommend people who are interested in the game to play it another way

this old comic of mine feels more relevant now than ever

my favourite dumb joke from tumblr's heydey was always "bleach fans grab your bleach"

Keep away from Pumpkinhead Unless you're tired of living. His enemies are mostly dead. He's mean and unforgiving.

Retrothon 2026 submissions are now open! rgltv.com/events/retro... A week long celebration of retro speedruns - we can’t wait to see what you’ve got!

I suggest we implement an international business regulatory body whose sole function is to put scalpers into wood chippers. Feet first. I think such an intitative would single handedly bring the retro game market back into line & collapse the "graded" market for games which render them unplayable.

It's funny how you can pinpoint the exact moment people stopped living in the real world.

someone in AI fucked up and actually told the truth

Why is it going around that "Pokemon home can't/wouldn't be able to connect to Virtual Console" No, like. Come ON. It would be so easy to rip the save from it, read it, and edit it based on what you transfer out. It's because they know they can get you to pay $20 because you'll believe that lie.

We're proud to announce our newest streaming project, GDQ TV!!! 💙 GDQ TV is an always-on livestream featuring a collection of speedruns curated from our 15 year history Tune in to catch highlights from past GDQ events and cast your vote to decide what runs play next! Watch now at: twitch.tv/gdqtv

the Konami Python 2 will always be the peak of mid-2000s arcadejank to me imagine being an arcade tech back then, and you finally receive the kit to upgrade your cab from DDR SuperNOVA to SuperNOVA 2, so you open the case to get at the disc drive, and you're met face-to-face with this:

First run "official" run of this trash. Run is very much still rough though and I need to learn the second level map more.

If you are not following Tangomushi you should be! On top of making great videos on horror games and being a fun Irish streamer to watch, she's also good peoples!

yes it will and no it isn't and you will watch

Not available in Ireland but hey, its a fantastic bargain for some fantastic books

Wild that we had 2 Taoisigh called Éamon de Valera who were apparently not related to each other at all, but every other Taoiseach was just the same one guy with a different hairpiece. Simon Harris is obviously as invisible to AI as he is to mirrors.

Just saw an ad that started out "your kids won't remember their best day of screen time" and while I of course broadly agree with the sentiment that you should do activities with your children, don't tell me i don't remember beating zelda a link to the past

My most Mao coded opinion is that everyone in Dublin should be forced to spend 6 months commuting on rural public transport every time they want to see a film, play or gig, eat at a restaurant, or just hang out with their friends

I have had both of these "fictional" landlords

I'm older than you so I can confirm that they came with a little book that had the tutorial in it and you read it on the way home

I've been a part of this project for more than a year. Words can't express how happy I am to see it come to life and be able to share it with everyone. #IrishGameDev #IndieDev #GameDev #IrishCreatives #IrishGameDomination #SpeirGhorm #IndieGame #SpotLight #Promote

Oh yeah, Twitter's doing great.

People talk about this stuff in terms of how much it'll suck for gaming and I hate to inform you how many MRI machines, X-Rays, all sorts of other vital machinery are just a Windows IoT Edition PC in a beige plastic box with a big magnet/accelerator/whatever attached.

Wanna quickly thank folk for giving our goofy videos a shot, and tuning in to hear our riffs and retrospectives. We'll keep on giving bad games their due process for as long as folk keep showing up to watch us, and working to make the BGHOF the best damn show in the scene.

Now live on GameFAQs- detailed guide and maps for Bloodwings: Pumpkinhead's Revenge!

The castle gates swing open once more! Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night is back, complete with all DLC, including IGA's Back Pack, Cosmetic Packs, and Classic II: Dominique's Curse! Pre-order from Feb 27, with two physical editions for PlayStation 4, Switch, and Xbox! https://bit.ly/4rXonPp

The best time-transition cutscene in a 90s videogame? 🤔

I can't believe my evil twin with the beard comitted all that tax fraud and tried to pin the crimes on me. Shame he got away with millions and escaped out of this dimension/timeline after I defeated him. The money, just like all trace of his existance, are gone, no further investigation required!

So glad to be on hols this week...

Welp, Sega did what we feared it would do. PSN no longer lists the non-butchered version of Yakuza 3, and Steam only has it in an expensive bundle that also includes the trans-erasing, sex-pest-financing version. Luckily GoG comes in clutch as per usual! We thank you once again for your service!

We've finally come full circle. People are longing for less chatter dialogue in their games by referencing ocarina, a game that people consistently complained about Navi being too talkative to the point of it being a meme for 20 odd years.

THEY MADE RETURN TO SILENT HILL ACTION FIGURES AND OH MY GOD.

Soon... soon the world will know of Pumpkinhead's Revenge! Granted, like 31 years later and this for the two other people who might accidentally try to play it after hearing about it.

Out now! The Dark Eye remaster store.steampowered.com/app/4289030/...

if you asked me to diagnose the western game industry's current problem it would start with "landlords have absorbed basically all disposable income"

THis is actually a really good illustration of why LLMs are just...kind of not that good at a lot of the things they're sold as being good at: The thing doesn't fucking understand or know what the question is, it's doing pattern recognition and that breaks down on a long enough timescale.

you can press the z button to target people and objects you encounter in the world. go ahead, give it a try

Happy 35th #Lemmings anniversary! Who'd have thought, 35 years later we'd still be talking about these little guys. #Amiga #MSDOS #AtariST #Commodore #Atari #DMADesign #Psygnosis #RETROGAMING #Lemmings35th Read about it's making here lemmings.info/lemmings-gam...

Probably Enemy Zero if count casual playthrough on easy then hard. Then documenting the game for walkthrough. Then bug testing Minus Edition.Then practising speedruns. Then making EasyEZ utility to have saves for every difficulty at the major game progression. Then further runs and showcases...
