New mug vibes #boomerposting

"How can we market our stuffy, PC-centric magazine about how to use Microsoft Office and stuff?" "I have an idea!" "I swear, if it's tits again, Steven..." archive.org/details/the-...

I only checked Bluesky five times to see if anyone was talking about how it was out of service. I'm pretty smart like that.

@bigham.bsky.social I feel like I should ping you specifically, since this hits multiple ham-related activities 🙏

Sega: hard stuff! Magazine advertisement for NBA Action 98 on Sega Saturn, back when more than one company could make basketball games. Originally released as NBA Fastbreak '98 on PlayStation. The premise of this ad is a choice. Typical Sega stuff for the time. #gaming #retro #Sega 🎮

Japanese TV commercial for Pachio-kun: Warau Uchū on PC Engine CD-ROM. From a long-standing series of pachinko games, your sentient pachinko ball gets in a spaceship to save Pachinko Planet...by playing pachinko in a cool way. That's probably the games they're talking about. Right?? 🤔 #chosting

While I'm away from scanning and whittling away at a larger project, now's as good a time as any to remind folks that I am always open to article submissions to The Stacks if you're looking for a place to post your work. Preference for adult games/history/art history/queerness but open to anything 💛

This is important analysis🙏

Ugh, another re-release? Classic Square milking the franchise 🙄 Japanese TV commercial for Final Fantasy I•II, a compilation featuring the top loader NES, as this was a very late release, in 1994. Packaged with a hefty strategy guide and a map, only in Japan. #gaming #retro #Nintendo 🎮

Today's random pull is Outlive, a 2000 real-time strategy game from a short-lived studio out of Brasil 🇧🇷 I mean, it's obvious what they went for. However, coincidentally the game is doing a 25 years remaster and it has a demo in #SteamNextFest! 👇 store.steampowered.com/app/4057780/... #chosting

Holy poopy buttwipes, that's the most people I've ever seen outside on a random, rainy Tuesday. What the fuck is everyone doing? Safe to say, groceries were a nightmare. That sucked so much, I bought myself a new mug as a treat.

More from very specific dedicated peripherals, here's a Japanese magazine advertisement promoting the Rhytmpad for the first Paca Paca Passion. And it's only €25 extra. That would be unheard of today. It's like DDR but for your hands. The buttons are technically just PlayStation buttons. #chosting

Just found out that the developers of Before The Green Moon were Cohost believers. Cosmically linked 🫡 web.archive.org/web/20250107...

Feels like I did fuckall today except watching various competitions, so I think I'll go punish myself by taking a 1AM shower. Gotta pay some kind of karmic debt.

Well, I can safely say that I'll never have a better fantasy league result than this. Crazy first day of the tournament.

#newupload I also have Vol 2 ready Check it out here: archive.org/details/pret... Also got the Mitsumete Knight extra art. This one is from 1998, so there was 4 years in between these issues, crazy. As far as I know of, there is only one more, a Vol 3

Belgium won a real ugly game against Wales and is now almost sure of World Cup qualification. Both defenders that fucked up and conceded a goal also scored one. A real redemption story in an otherwise very underwhelming performance with two gifted penalties.

I forgot that PUBG tournament started today. Oops. For the first time, they have flags for every team, wish leads to an awkward point. Krafton "banned" Russia at the start of the war, but lets Russian teams still play, as they're some of the best in the world. So they fly the CIS flag instead...

It's a good thing Sucker Punch fired people for committing wrongspeak on Charlie Kirk, after working for years to make Ghost of Yōtei, just for your comments to still look like this. Good job, everyone.

Magazine advertisement for Milo's Astro Lanes. A European Nintendo 64 game I haven't heard about? That's rare, since they only released like 200 games here. Maybe for good cause, since it fails the low bar of N64 trash. Developer Player 1 also made the N64 classic, Blues Brothers 2000... #chosting

I looked up the origin of this meme (which I correctly identified as NOT a joke, this time!) One, of course it's Twitter. It's always Twitter. Two, it is just so exhausting to be in the same space as these losers at this point. What does "with gamers in mind" even mean here? That looks terrible.

I don't wanna keep doing spooky stuff all month, so here's one last one: the Nokia N-Gage really only had one scary game and it's Ashen. A shooter akin to your Quake and whatnot, but on your phone in 2004. It even had multiplayer. Developer for hire, Torus Games, still exists! #chosting

Well, I already fucked up my Outward playthrough so much that I'll need to start a new game and redo the two hours of prep. So far, exactly the game I expected.

It's scary...how horny the magazine advertisements in 2002 were. Granted, the entirety of Bloodrayne was built around circulating the blood away from your brain. To your dick, if you catch my drift. It's very subtle. Ass, titties, guns; this game has it all! #gaming #retro 🎮

I bought Outward. They made a conscious choice here that for it to run on a Nintendo Switch, it would look like the worst PS3 port you've ever witnessed. It's hilariously poor quality. And it was the right call probably. Also, this SunnO))) ass soundtrack is incredible.

Here's what the game looks like in screenshots, in case you don't like old game intros. I don't know why you wouldn't, but here you go.

What's the best way to advertise the Nintendo GameCube? Somehow, it's also Final Fantasy Tactics Advance! With a few extra steps, thanks to the Game Boy Player. It's just the best game, what can I say? 🤷‍♂️

Post a random game in your collection, here on Saturday It's spooky month, so for #RandomGameSaturday here's a game I think is real stupid, but people like it. Everyone just copies Resident Evil forever, so Capcom thought they'd do it themselves but with dinosaurs. That's it. That's the game 🤷

Can I interest you in a Girls of Gaming magazine? Yes, it's exactly what you think it is. They put one out every year for a while. archive.org/details/girl...
