I've waited 3 years to make this post

I wanted to learn about why there's a series of trading cards depicting NFL players as monsters. Then I ended up down a looong rabbit hole. The answer is: It was part of a union-busting campaign!

Merry Christmas! If you'd like to spend 45 minutes celebrating video game history with me, we're about to debut The Untold Story of the Nintendo Entertainment System. I worked on his ALL YEAR, and I genuinely think it will reshape how we all think about the system. www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJvp...

It's Parasite Eve ...

a celebratory clown for the 25th anniversary of phantasy star online!

who up bustling their cookie 🐻

Gregg Mayles has just unveiled the full plan of Stop ‘N’ Swop, and its glorious!

'Phantasy Star Online' was released on the SEGA Dreamcast 25 years ago today in Japan.

This is the pattern with the Cookie's Bustle troll. They abuse free/cheap legal resources to make spurious takedowns, and then never follow up, because they have no legitimate claim. If you push back even a grain of sand, you will never hear from them again

I've seen "Jeidern" before but not "Hydelen".

Gonna get the Bear Game into every American household like it's a fuckin America Online CD, trolls suck my dick.

the good news is the translation is still up on the site and most likely will be in perpetuity because the person behind the claims is a lil bitch and always backs off when a website actually asks for proof of his claim. the key to his entire shtick is that social media/video sharing sits don't

Absolutely ghoulish. Fuck this.

I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.

This has been underreported about Cookie's Bustle. The "copyright registration" that's been used for takedowns is just a website where you can say "I own this" with zero validation. It is not an actual copyright registration! It does nothing to support their claim

The winter FUNraiser continues at 12pm Pacific: We're dumping a new set of mystery ROMs, live on stream! And we need your help to assemble the data! Based on the labels on these ROMs, there *will* be at least one new unpreserved game in here.

Hey! Are you gifted in piecing together game data? I'm going to need help during this live stream today! I'm putting raw EPROMs in a public folder, but need help piecing them together. Systems are NES, GEN, SNES, GB, GG, Jag. There are new unreleased games here! www.youtube.com/live/RJwR8jX...

Our first big Christmas update is with an amazing recovery of the final build of Resident Evil on Gameboy Color. Hotgen's impressive conversion that got canned. This is much closer to completion, and seems completable too. Lots to discover! www.gamesthatwerent.com/2025/12/resi...

Namco's legendary Sugamo arcade (fka Namco PlayCity Carrot Sugamo) will be closing its doors on March 22 🇯🇵 this venue's been operating since '84 and is not only the mecca for pre-release Namco games & hot games in general but also built the communities that would underpin much of JP's games media

dying at the BG images

As part of our project to preserve the history of Sega Channel, we have recovered OVER 100 new Sega Channel ROMs, including the legendary lost game Garfield: Caught in the Act - The Lost Levels. Read more: gamehistory.org/segachannel/

this is what people are talking about, right?

We are SO EXCITED to finally show you Xcavator 2025! This is an unreleased (and unannounced!) NES game from 1991 that we recovered from its source code. The rights to it were 100% donated to us, and it's being published as a fundraiser cartridge to support our work!

Tomomichi Nishimura, the voice actor behind Slam Dunk's Coach Anzai and Street Fighter's M. Bison and Akuma, has died:

Katsuhiro Harada to leave Bandai Namco at end of the year

Played a few demo discs on my Saturn earlier, including a demo for Side Pocket 3. It was mislabeled, I played Side Pocket 3 for like two hours wondering at what point the demo was going to end. You know what, it wasn't a bad time.

A treat for helping us reach the goal for our annual fundraiser: We've redigitized the MaxiVision Power Video Challenge, an infomercial for an unlicensed NES multicart, featuring WWF superstars in the WORLD GAME FEDERATION Read more: gamehistory.org/maxivision-p...
