I really believe when we went from "watching randos play at the local arcade" to "watching the best playing on twitch" the way people interact with arcadey games was completely distorted unrealistic expectations and impossible standards of performance started being set and such.

This is one of the first films to use computer animation and it still looks amazing

This is the first hardware based polygon arcade board, the System 21 from Namco. The beginning of a revolution in video game graphics and processing.

Color version of Brekkie Bros. is now available: sadfolks.itch.io/brekkie-bros... Thanks again to everyone that played the game and spread the good word! Keep doing so, as for me I think it's high time to start on that fabled "next project" so many people talk about. 'Til next time, folks!

Hello, everyone overseas. This time, I’m going to introduce the development materials for the NES game *Metal Slider Glory*. These are the actual tools used during development, and with just this single disk, you can create everything from pixel art to animations.

The Sega Saturn had everything. It even had a game for people who like old ladies a bit too much

WHATS UP YOU WET MOTHERFUCKERS

Good thing about cleaning is finding out I apparently had the Space Adventure Cobra movie Bluray!

Horse-racing and baseball were the pillars of “generational” RPGs. Alongside Derby Stallion, Artdink’s Eikan wa Kimi ni 2 introduced a “generational change” mechanic which would go on to influence Masuda’s legendary Oreshika. Namco’s baseball game Famista 64 served as the basis for Molmorth.

Resort Island (Sonic R, Saturn-PC-PS2-GC, Traveller's Tales-Sonic Team, 1997)

Resident Evil movie trailer looks great, absolutely embodying the energy of "total doofus in completely over his head as the situation gets dramatically worse" that I love so much in the early parts of the newer RE games. I really don't need to see any of the characters from the games.

You know what I love about Moon Child? The fact there's not a hint of malice, just a complete understanding of how shitty the game industry has always been, even to games that deserved a bit better. So seeing a lot of that love and care for something and the folks who worked on it is just the best.

the things people say are "good game design" that implicitly every game should use is like saying every song should just have lyrics about dancing at the club

Deeply held beliefs about art: - It's important to dissect and criticize even things you enjoy (you will be called a hater for this). - You will loathe some things everyone else loves. That's healthy and good. - There will be some shit you love that's totally indefensible. Also healthy and good.

Learning Space Jam is 30 years old has me like

Eliza McLamb had an apt analogy abt modern fandoms: Fans no longer treat creators as creators. Fans treat creators like stock options they’ve invested in; like they’re part owners of a creator’s work just by *being fans*, and therefore get a say in what creators make/how they act. And it sucks.

I suppose in some small way this could be considered an arcade. I don’t know

Scan of a Hoi Amiga game review in the British Amiga Mania paper magazine, 1992… "That games designers could bung something as cute as Hoi into an environment as hostile as this, is a testimony to the sad, twisted, unreal lives that most of them lead." 😆😆

Just finished reading this. The techniques described are nothing short of phenomenal. It does make me wonder what would be possible with such care these days. Totally impractical of course to write code like this for a modern application, but still, think […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

I gotta say while I've hated this week long cleaning endeavor, I will say it's REALLY empowering feeling after years of dealing with ADD/ADHD and manic depression and just never doing anything about it because apparently I have some perception dysfunction. If it's out of sight, it's out of mind.

While I was doing some cleaning, look at what I found:

Despite creating a billion-dollar franchise - with a new $200M budget Hollywood blockbuster launching in a month - the creator of He-Man's family were unable to afford his dementia and care facility costs, and had to setup a GoFundMe. Mattel gave $5,000.

This is so adorable. Confusion erupts in Technopolis magazine in January 1992 as they run a feature on DMA Designs and Psygnosis' Lemmings. “How is this a Lemming?” they ask as they compare the real life example to the pixel walkers.
