I seriously thought this was a 3DO game at a glance.

Here's an updated pic of my budget Treasure game collection. I'm up to twenty official, relatively inexpensive releases from one of my favorite developers, plus an Alien Soldier custom-made by @magictrashman.bsky.social in a bygone era.

I protest comparisons of this new Fist of the North Star's lousy dub to the Streamline dub of the 1986 movie. The movie dub is cheesy and takes many translation liberties but it has AMAZING performances, including James Avery (Uncle Phil! The Shredder!) as Boss Fang! www.reddit.com/r/fistofthen...

This has the same vibe as a TurboDuo or Sega CD game that had no localization budget and no time for multiple takes.

Ah, a naturally occurring Mario enemy.

My favorite parts of this are King Hippo being from Hippo, Hippo (like he's St. Augustine) and Mr. "Sandamn" being from AAAAAAA, AAAAA (aka Philadelphia).

I am normally not one to be cruel to strangers but when I see Druaga in those multi-game arcade cabinets at Costco or Target, I always make sure it's the game up and running for whoever tries the cabinet out next.

The correct answer is Gil & the Knight enemies from The Tower of Druaga. Their design is directly inspired by the Zeong from Gundam & Maximillian from The Black Hole movie, as mentioned by the game's creator Masanobu Endo in an old online Q&A session with 2ch users

another impeding EGG Console drop that might appeal to some of you non-computer folk: Psycho World (MSX2), the original and arguably best version of the game adapted for intl audiences on both Master System & Game Gear as Psychic World; out next week

seeing multiple reports of new dmca takedowns on cookie's bustle content. if you end up getting one it's not a huge deal just annoying, if you send an email to the address listed in the claim asking for a retraction you'll almost assuredly get it. here's a template you can use pastebin.com/KqTsg0Li

I want to review this, but I know I'd write nothing but "Roger Dean's Faussete Amour" and then stare hopefully at readers.

when this website dies meet me at the woody woodpecker racing for game boy color message board on gamefaqs

RIP Yoshihisa Kishimoto, not only did he create some of the most influential beat em ups of all time, but he also designed/directed Road Avenger(Road Blaster) and Cobra Command aka Thunder Storm (1984), two of the best FMV games ever.

Post a random game? Okay, here's Threads of Fate / Dewprism. I really liked how PlayStation-era Squaresoft released an interesting game almost every month. It has a flyer reminding you to buy Final Fantasy VIII Desktop Accessories. I gotta get to my local 7-Eleven before they sell out!

I included the remaining members during the revisions😅

Me: Hey, a progressive rock album with an H.R. Giger cover. I bet this gets weird and dark. Emerson, Lake & Palmer: OH HERE'S THE STORY OF BENNY THE BOUNCER AND MEAN OL' SAVAGE SID THEY MET AT THE BAR AND HAD A RIGHT PUNCH UP, YES THEY REALLY DID

One day someone will assume No-Intro is the actual title of a game and we'll get another one of these.

note: in this episode casper is trying to prove he is scary enough to get the right to move back to the weird hell dimension full of demons and one of the demons is baby huey

Monster World IV is such a wonderful, charming game. It had to wait so long for an official localization, but eventually it got wider recognition (plus a remake). Even the game over screen is just precious. www.kidfenris.com/2012/07/litt...

I wish I could find the @ragu.andoreseven.com tweets that go off on Tank Jones from the game Final Lap Twin, calling him stuff like the "NUMBER ONE BASTARD OF SHIT."

It's interesting that Working Designs apparently did this in an attempt to make the Alundra bosses LESS tedious. From the manual:

I'm sure I'm repeating myself, but Phantasy Star merits that. This is a great price for the best version of a groundbreaking game. A few tips: www.kidfenris.com/2018/12/enjo...

*looks out a window on the Artemis II* Whoa, it's the Blue Star from those Lunar RPGs.

legendsoflocalization.com/articles/mov... I've been seeing posts about The Wizard, that Nintendo-centric movie from like 35 years ago So here's a look at the Japanese translation of the movie!

Whoa, a new season of Don't Hug Me I'm Scared?

Our look at Cancelled GBA games is NOW on YouTube! How different would the world be if we could have had Funky Kong in a kart racing game.... youtu.be/gv7Swlmc5y4?...

When I tell folks to read critical reviews of popular media to learn from them, I'll be pointing to this piece, specifically, going forward. It's biting and pithy, and you can *feel* the combination of disappointment and revulsion that comes from seeing an obvious cynical cash-in of a picture.

32周年おめでとう！大好きだ〜！ #FF6_32nd_anniversary #FF6_32周年

I assure you, this is NOT an April Fools' Day gag.

On this APRIL 1 we are pleased to announce a DATING SIM based on APRIL FOOLS' JOKES. You play as one W.A. Stokins of Fuldigen, HA and make your way through a high school full of personified pranks. Will you go to the movies with Irem's Exidna console or the beach with Valkyrie Wilde?

That's what you get when you don't cater to the Fawful fans.

Final Fantasy XII turns 20 years old! #FF12 #FFXII. vhyrel.com.

New blog post time! This week's game is Punch King, the other GBA Punch-Out-like that isn't Wade Hixton's Counter Punch. It adheres closely to the arcade Punch-Outs and I like its take on the KO meter, but unreliable hit detection and an absurd final boss mean you'll need patience to see it through

Masanori Miyamoto, who used to compose music for many Compile games (Guardic, Aleste, Zanac, etc.), has uploaded something very interesting to YouTube -- the original source sketches he composed on a synthesizer, before they were converted to chiptunes! Check it out! www.youtube.com/watch?v=3S_U...

This is one of those comic strips where I literally cannot discern the characters' facial features. Is that a mouth or a bow tie on that kid with the glasses in the last panel?

No Kings, No Queens, No Knights On White Horses. All These Things Mean Nothing To Me.

I don't typically care about what is said on these shows but my god @emmavigeland.bsky.social cooked last night

Share a magazine cover you love.

Cool: -A new Ghost in the Shell that looks like the original manga (and the PlayStation game cutscenes) -Tachikomas with mouths Uncool: -The dub won't have William Knight as Aramaki

weird that this seems to be an action game and not a spreadsheet management sim where you have to file the proper paperwork to requisition the prefectural budget committee for a 5% increase in maintenance expenditures

wondering how different things would've gone if I had gotten my mom to buy that net yaroze... archive.org/details/net-...

These are amazing, and I half-expected to see this among them.

Yeah, maybe I'm okay with Sony not making another Gravity Rush game.
