And a new one for us this year, Eugene Retro Game Fest (Eugene, OR).

It's been a busy spring for retro gaming shows: a short thread. First up 64 Bits or Less in Corvallis, OR.

Happy DOOM’s Day aka the launch day for DOOM The Dark Ages! Enjoy a little devils food while you slay some demons!

Tonight on the Pixel Pond stream I’m playing Resident Evil for the first time! Thank you everyone who contributed to the sub goal. And don’t worry, I have my unicorn in case I get too scared 😱

It’s not perfect, but it looks darn good! Steam Deck is looking sharp Gundam Style!

when I say I’m omw this is what I mean

In case you all were panicked as I was don’t worry! Mario Kart World does have Shy Guy as a playable racer. He just got snubbed in the art work. Poor Shy Guy, it’ll be ok pal, we’ve got lots of races ahead of us.

When I tell the waiter I want my meat raw.

Nintendo announcing Game Chat for Switch 2 like it's some new thing despite it being standard for well over a decade is one of the most hilariously Nintendo things ever. They march to the beat of their own drum and I can't help but love them for it.

Well after 8 streams and countless hours of off-stream practice we finally beat Battletoads for the Amiga! Only the second known completion of this game! Big thanks to the folks over at Pixel Pond @redauxpdx.bsky.social & @ducksindisguise.bsky.social for the raid! 💗Have a good night all!

All day tomorrow, first annual Pixel Pond Hot Tub Stream!?! Join us for some silly fun tomorrow starting at 9am PST. 🦆🦆

If you hard-boil an egg properly, it should taste just like a Cadbury Creme Egg.

Can you find us? Tonight in the Pixel Pond, streaming Where’s Waldo NES and Where In Time Is Carmen Sandiego

Pleased and excited to see this coming out! Love all the shmup collections we've been getting the last few years. Plus, I saw this has some features that might endear me more to the Gradius series as a whole!

You know it’s spring in the Pixel Pond when the bunnies come out to join the games and add to the decor.

GG #Metroid Prime 3! A big thanks to everyone who joined us and to @redauxpdx.bsky.social for the raid! After the stream we headed over to @neonarcade.bsky.social 's channel for some Chrono Trigger!

Bit more LTTP Rando (casual) starting up now www.twitch.tv/pixelpondpro...

Any of my fellow #GOTEL #Lupus gamers deal with hand fatigue or have small hands? Some set ups have too much space between the buttons for RetroArch play. What kind of controller do you use?

Our first call of Game On! To End Lupus season is tomorrow at 12pm PT! Chat with event organizers and @lupus.org staff about our 6th GOTEL! We are here to answer your questions! Join our event May 2nd-4th to help us get to $1M raised for Lupus research and support programs. 👇🏽

Happy #caturday ! Enjoy our little snow tiger Buddy experiencing his first snow 😊

I’m really enjoying doing panels at events this winter. What types of panels from non-celebs do you like best?

This with @simonashtear.bsky.social at 9pm EST aka puzzle time. Twitch.tv/puzzlebetter
