First up, we have a Phantasy Star IV interview from 1993, from the World of Phantasy Star book (which has somehow remained untranslated all these years). There are some interesting comments on how the characters were created, and IV's relationship to II and III.

This is what I ordered! Great to see them together. Hopefully, mine will ship soon!

La entrevista de Jesús Quintero en la que José María García explicó la corrupción de Aznar y Florentino fue censurada por TVE cuando gobernaba el PSOE de Zapatero. Lo cuento en El Poder del Palco. TVE que controlaba Florentino Pérez y que parece que sigue controlando y por eso han vetado el libro.

Sega Saturn Emulator Yaba Sanshiro Takes A "Major Step Forward".

Mermaid with a gun is the actual hard mode

#MutantsFromTheDeep was released 5 years ago today :) An MSX1-style underwater shooter for PC that was eventually ported to the MSX1. It's free—you can download it from locomalito.com

The director of Jaws The Revenge when he learned that the animatronic star of his movie picked up a Golden Raspberry nomination for worst actor:

'Earthworm Jim 2' en Mega Drive es uno de los plataformas más creativos y variados de los 16 bits, con humor absurdo, niveles impredecibles y un acabado técnico sobresaliente. Si te gustó el primero, este es más grande, más raro y, para algunos, incluso más divertido. Yo prefiero el original

BlastEm, yeah, it runs Doom. Turns out Doom uses an undocumented alias for the SH7095 division unit result register. After supporting that and fixing an SH2 core bug (more on that in a moment), Doom 32X is now playable with only a few small bugs remaining.

New video time. There were loads of #MegaDrive games ported to #MegaCD but what about the ones that WEREN'T ports? Well come and check ALL of them out here! youtu.be/VPE-CqO0XKs?...

Back to the island of clever girls... 📺: The Lost World: Jurassic Park, Appaloosa Interactive, 1997 (Sega MD/Gen)

For a movie that’s 36 years old, Dick Tracy’s make up & prosthetic artists did a fantastic job on the outlandish Dick Tracy villains that still holds up.

This is quite addictive. I’ve already got it running a subset of Z80. It helps that I’ve already written a disassembler, so have worked out how to decode opcodes.

Gomola Speed on PCE, sort of a mashup of Snake and Gauntlet. Goal is to encircle the food in each stage. Bit frustrating constantly getting hit and losing your body pieces, but it's certainly a unique game. Only 25 stages with passwords, so not bad to beat. www.youtube.com/watch?v=aLHM...

Master system game outsells Mario Kart in 1993. The UK was a very different market.

Yeah, the new default behavior is to show you this. The old default behavior is to just treat it as fatal and exit. I have not added detection for any new "freeze" cases, but now when you hit one you have an option to get an idea where it happens.

GENS is needed for the tight cases, for the warnings. However, new BlastEm has 4 cases: CHOICE_FATAL: str = "fatal" default: CHOICE_ASK: str = "ask" CHOICE_DEBUG: str = "debug" CHOICE_IGNORE: str = "ignore" Gotta check it and compare.🥴

Wow!! This change in BlastEm is making the "crash / frozen" Genesis bugs easier to detect. For this case of your #SGDK game debugging I suggested running GENS KMOD with Debug console on. Now... I can use BlastEm for almost everything. So, GENS is needed, still >> www.retrodev.com/repos/blastem
