A hilarious headline for a VERY specific audience 🤣🤣🤣

This was a very fun review to write :)

A couple costume stills doesn't tell us anything about the quality of the film itself, but I'm cautiously optimistic since Nintendo's been doing a pretty good job lately at their attempts to branch beyond video games

AI-led debugging can be crazy useful: every programmer hates debugging, and an LLM can have a big-picture view of the code in a way automated unit testing cannot. AI-led QA is a disaster waiting to happen. LLM's lack the ability to recognize "quality", thus there can be no "assurance" of it.

Rumble Box (2005) was my first successful video game. My senior project at DigiPen Institute of Technology, it went on to get over a quarter of a million downloads, complete with Braid and N at the IGF, and even show up in a museum. Link: drive.google.com/file/d/1Z3lZ...

No guesses? Ok - here's a hint: all of these games are older than I am. I was born in 1982.

Which of the classic Tetris pieces has the best mouthfeel?

Namcot released a Splatterhouse parody on Famicom... but they MADE two of them! The second, an RPG, remained unreleased until the ROM was released yesterday. I can't WAIT to dig in to this one!

Do it, I need to know how honey bread is made

She gave me a great deal on some Grand Soul Gems, though!

It was localized from the original Japanese version, which just said "Snoogans." Some argue that the subtlety was lost in the translation, but there's really no other way to capture the original intent in English.

This video has the best metaphor for AI "artists" I've heard yet - it's like using a microwave to cook a Hot Pocket and then calling yourself a "chef". Good video!

What's up with Mario's reflection? 🤣🤣🤣

If you can identify any of these games, I will eat it - box and all - for clout. So definitely don't identify them, unless you want them to get eaten.

I ain't here to yuck Kirby's yum but ...

"Fresh", sealed copies of Super Mario RPG actually have a unique title screen. This screen is lost permanently on that cartridge after playing and saving just once, and can not be restored without tinkering with the cartridge or waiting decades for the save battery to run out.

Did you know I’ve got a starter pack of awesome people who make awesome video game books and magazines?

Looks like Hard Drive quietly removed their insulting Itagaki post. Doesn't change the fact that they barely post anything except US Political troll "humor" anymore. Your daily reminder to follow @paletteswap.site instead

I forgot to pay my cable bill and now my game boxes are all scrambled! Is that a nipple? What games ARE they?

Update:

Of course women don't like the Cybertruck. Women only want one thing, and it's the DVD set of the short-lived 1992 Fox sitcom Down the Shore.

I just sent this text message to my sister

Imagine running a comedy account, posting a joke, and literally having every single response be "this is a bad joke and you should feel bad." In related news, Hard Drive sucks, all the actual funny people went to @paletteswap.site

The early 90s was an amazing time for PC games

The way generative AI works is by creating an average of all human-created works. It is literally designed to create "average" work, at its best. But because no system is 100% efficient, it cannot reliably meet that standard. It is, by definition, below-average work.

Sega never shied away from weird games, like this 1988's hybrid top-down action-platformer UFO Senshi Yoko-chan, starring Japanese idol singer & TV star Yoko Minamino. Travel between pop culture universes fighting Godzilla, zombies and Loto from Dragon Quest

Every once in a while I need to brag on my kids. Six months ago he was non-verbal. Today, when I picked him up from therapy, he looked at me and with the most serious matter-of-fact voice said "You and me are going to get ice cream." How could I say no to that? youtu.be/19_vq4sYRTg?...

I love going through screenshots I took while playing a game because sometimes there's no real context

Anybody else love this show back in the '90s? @ductape.bsky.social

Last week, my six year old brought home hand foot & mouth disease from school. Luckily, it didn't affect him much - a couple small sores on his legs that healed quickly. I, on the other hand, now look like a damned pizza. 🤬

BeyondTheNES.com went into editing months ago, so it's been a long time since I've had the opportunity to create new content for it. Due to an oversight in my tracking, I missed a game. So tonight, I'm making up for it with a full-page spread. Wanna guess what game it is?

Oh, she likes trains too?
