Really good face from Sega's "Comical Machine Gun Joe"

Take the X Train (1987) - Gutsy Subs' 2018 LDrip vs. my 2023 LDrip vs. my 2026 LDrip It's amazing that all these screenshots come from the same LaserDisc, with improvements to video hardware and software making it possible to squeeze more detail out of a video format from 1978 as the years go by.

I got a new player... Thanks to its shorter laser wavelength, this player is much better at reading through disc scratches and rot. I may be able to encode some discs that were previously unusable before.

Haven’t really mentioned it here on Bluesky, but over the past couple years I’ve been working on/off on a scanning project for an obscure 1980s anime Oh! Family. I’ve obtained a number of 16mm rush prints for the series and I’ve been gradually getting them scanned for the past while.

My first completed game of 2026 was Ganbare Gorby! for the Sega Game Gear, starring everyone’s favorite Soviet leader. You operate switches and create bridges to deliver what people need, all while dodging enemies who try to hit you, shoot you, or steal the food. A very fun time!

While the HD master for Harmagedon/Genma Taisen is matted to widescreen, the LaserDisc release is open matte with a lot more shown on the top and bottom. Despite being made for theaters, I found many shots to be better framed for 4:3 than widescreen. Stay tuned!

25GB Domesday capture uploaded to my Google Drive. Untouched, standard definition, interlaced file output direct from @w0wmd, in .mkv format. Demux it, upload it to the Internet Archive, do whatever you'd like: drive.google.com/drive/folder...

A new domesday laserdisc capture raw from @wowmd.bsky.social and I, of the Masamune Shirow OVA Black Magic M-66. This is much higher quality than the DVD release.

This isn't bad emulation, the game really does just sound like that.

Screenshots from a short film based on a story by Akiyuki Nosaka (author of Grave of the Fireflies) and directed by Yoshio Kabashima (animation director on Ace o Nerae, Gamba no Bouken, Mystery of Mamo). It was never released on home video or made available online. Stay tuned...

Who's the joker who vandalized the Wikipedia page for Quarterback Attack with Mike Ditka by putting Nobuo Uematsu as the composer? What motivates a person to do this?

lol, the Ashita no Joe NeoGeo game misspells José Mendoza's name as "Hose Mendose." Contrary to popular belief, this was released outside Japan (in Europe), but it seems they didn't put much care into it.
