@masterlinkuei.bsky.social shared that the @gamehistoryorg.bsky.social Tengen prototypes has an early build of Pit Fighter II for Genesis that was supposed to come out in late 1993 but was shelved.

maybe a longshot, but does anyone know ANYTHING about the Rygar mobile game from 2005. I can only find this screenshot and an old IGN article www.ign.com/articles/200... Would love to know if this has been dumped or at least see any recorded footage.

WATCH THIS TRAILER

Picked up Ven VR for some Astro Bot-y action on the Quest and... oof. I've enjoyed a few other Astro-likes (Lucky's Tale, Max Mustard) but this is really missing that something special. Difficulty is way too high, combat imprecise, and platforming overly busy. I'm only a few levels in, but 5-6/10

Because video games are too damned long

Picked up a used Meta Quest 3 and much as I'm against supporting Meta in any capacity, this is a fantastic device. Not just games, but everything is great - I'm currently watching YouTube TV on a simulated giant screen and it's incredible

Last year we were hustling all the way through Christmas to get to $30k, this year we hit $30k so fast we had to do a stretch goal. We've been doing Winter Fundraisers for five years now. This was probably the easiest AND best one ever. I'm proud of us, and thankful to you.

Just downloaded this and it's absolutely wonderful.

*** Mega Parodius (MegaDrive) Update *** Dialing up the engine to see what it can handle and we run out of sprites before cpu so thats a good thing as we don't want any slowdown . Not accurate to arcade but might be an insane mode option, lots of logic / animations missing / WIP etc. 1/..

I really love how modern televisions are actually movable by a human being when you have something over the size of 14", but man, this is such a perfect example of just what we've lost in terms of tech design. Everything used to have such style and personality.

I'm online too much

I for one would love to thank Nintendo for shipping Wii Sports in a scratchy piece of cardboard. That one game alone will ensure I stay in the disc repair business until my final days. Get yours (and any other discs) done too: ebay.us/m/AG9LL9
