OSCAAARRRRRRR

Sukeban Deka II celebrates its 40th anniversary today.

I've joined 100 Yen Life in the role of Fleet Manager! I'm maintaining, refurbishing, cleaning, and future-proofing our fleet of candy cabs and arcade games for extended play at our freeplay arcade in Kent, WA and for deployment at cons and events from EVO to SakuraCon! 100yenlife.com

hey what's up my favorite game is paper mario and i'm about to give you an opinion that you'll be mad about for atleast a year

YU-NO BGM as I transit to work lol

2025 really is the year of "I hope they make another [OLD BELOVED GAME]" giving way to A Different Team, In A Different Engine, making a paper-thin facsimile of That Thing, and the particulars being slightly off. Movement inertia in MGS Delta, the Katamari physics feeling Wrong, everything about NG4

always on my mind www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmSQ...

"I wonder if it remembers me "

cannot stop thinking about YU-NO. unequivocally one of the best games i have ever played

Zohran says you’re trans now

It’s time.

happy birthday yoshiyuki tomino 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 youtu.be/aVWxpQ_NN2M?...

obviously the Ninja Gaiden interview shmuplations translated is super interesting but I also feel compelled to point out they dropped this absolute banger at the same time shmuplations.com/namcomusic/

dunno if I can get through ninja gaiden 4. it is making me pine for stellar blade

HEI NETWORK APP LET'S GOOOOOOOOOO

yeah YU-NO is a revelation. wow

I got good news, y'all: even when you work as a translator for over a decade and you otherwise navigate a transaction in Japanese fine up until that point you need something minor repeated, you still get to have this experience on a regular basis. 10/10, only feels better every time it happens. 🙂

Best mail day in a while. So excited to watch this again @discotekmedia.bsky.social

i've been checking out nikke recently, and it is frankly far better than I'd assumed

Just remembering how good this cover is.

sorry shadow labyrinth, game of the year 2025 is "all of the variations of virtua fighter 5 released this year"

Shadow Labyrinth

it's really hard to believe that the Xbox "it's just these four games" emergency podcast thing was February 15, 2024.

baseball but it’s completely fixed

sigh. they're gonna neuter shadow labyrinth youtu.be/orbAUuybgiI

I don't normally like to tease interviews ahead of time on the podcast but this week's a big one (see image for details).

I cannot shake this "god I miss Shadow Labyrinth" feeling. First game in years and years where I am having to fight off the urge to play it a second time

Remembering when Vanquish got dinged for being "very Japanese," a comment that had no other elucidation and was written as a self-evident negative. That generation was wild with how ethnocentric shit got.

really can't get over the weird vibes coming off Ninja Gaiden 4. "Platinum made their best game in a long, long time but because it is saddled with the baggage of an IP with a (largely) sterling track record as the very best the genre has to offer, it is made to feel disappointing"

This isn’t really a Ninja Gaiden game in any of the ways that matter but there are some moments of brilliance hidden in here

keep having the sincere organic thought "man I wish I was playing Ninja Gaiden right now" while playing Ninja Gaiden 4

think i'm gonna play YU-NO soon

The thing is like if we want to fight back against prudery and sex negativity we also have to stop referring to stuff as 'gooner art' and accept that nsfw shit that reads as 'for the male gaze' has as much a right to exist as your favourite yaoi

So anyway I restored Daicon IV from scratch. This was a joint project with Chris Person (papapishu), who sourced the incredibly Rare Laserdisc release. The raw files can be found on the internet archive for those interested in processing it yourself. Enjoy! archive.org/details/DAIC...

no Katamari Damacy since has matched the pitch-perfect tone of the original's cutscenes (featuring the Hoshino family)

Preserved another anime on VHS today. Presenting Cipher the VIDEO, in 4K from my hacked VCR. Enjoy! youtu.be/gmDs3K_6hnw
