Well I didn’t expect to be in Kyoto today, walking past the front gates of Nintendo’s head office, but here we are…

alright gonna put myself out there a little bit oh my lord I do believe I regret purchasing a book. i am not done and I intend to read far more of it to finish judging it but I'm already pretty upset.

Finally got a physical copy of Windows 3.1 and man that box is *way* more chunky than I expected…

A little late but…. Happy birthday to the best Sonic the Hedgehog game ever made!

Man it’s so beautiful when it’s all put together… Modem, CD, and Karaoke!

Working on the next example project for Megadev which shows how to use the Mega CD's hardware scaling/rotation. Took a little while to figure it out, but I think I have a handle on it now...

I may have splurged a little bit to pick up one of my PC-98 grails…

One of the wildest parts of Raimais is the hidden ending, folks had discovered voice samples that alluded to it but it was @sudden-desu.net who figured out how to access it, since the requirements to reach it were either disabled or nearly impossible to reach sudden-desu.net/entry/raimai...

Good morning Nintendo!

Welll…. Since I’m in the neighborhood…. May as well stop by Royal for a little while ;)

Did you know there was a Money Idol Exchanger manga? Now you do!

The sacred texts!!

Last grilling for 2025, I fear..

The developer Hertz was making a golf game for the Mega CD (Polygon Golf), so it's possible. bsky.app/profile/emot...

Did you know the Sega Mega CD BIOS supports the Mega Drive mouse? I didn't till today!

I still want to know about the music track used on the trailer packed with Parasite Eve since it wasn't in the final game and was never heard again. Is it Uematsu? Does it have a title? Can we ever hear a HQ recording? youtu.be/P3I7M2aV8w8?...

These are the kind of details I *love* to learn about. His channel has a bunch of comparisons like this, check them out! youtu.be/L5nIkCZE2ao?...

I made this assembly yesterday, a 3d printed assembly that puts a faux coin in the existing coin slot of a candy cab and rings in credits with a press.

I may have just found a rare, old Sega game center token in a pile of random tokens in a relatively cheap auction, fingers crossed...

The choices of items that 7-11 makes whenever they do an “American Food Fair” are often questionable, but I think they got it spot on this time.

Goddamn I love living in Osaka

Check this: AFAICT undumped Usagi na Panic EX - a CD compilation that includes 1 + 2 (presumably identical to disk versions, but who knows?) plus a Takarabako extra (presumably undumped). Only copy I've ever seen pop up :^) #PC98

Dude next to me on the train is playing a PS Vita in tyool 2025, do it up king

Mail’s here.

Real Bout Fatal Fury Special ending for the Neo-Geo CD www.vgmuseum.com/end/ngcd What's different about this version is the gorgeous "Blue Mary Blues" music video you get after each ending. I also included all the funny credits animations. Those took me a long time to make.

It's even more messed up than this. If you look at their discards, you'll see the first tile is sideways. That means that they called Riichi there, which you can only do if you are 1 tile away from completion. Their OPENING DRAW WAS AN ALREADY COMPLETELY ASSEMBLED YAKUMAN I'd bail too lmao

Resident Evil 6 is filled with bespoke details unique to their different stages. My favorite is this mahjong table that looks like it was left in a hurry. It was, but not due to zombies. One person got Four Concealed Triplets (one of the most valuable hands) and everyone else quit.

What an absolute beauty of a card! It’s a massive shame that this is the only pixelart-illustration in the whole Final Fantasy #MTG set.

I haven't posted any scans recently because I've been meaning to calibrate my scanner properly, and I've simply been putting it off. Well, I finally took the time and the results are great. The colors are much more accurately represented! So, we have a couple quick scans today, posted below.

Power washed the unused parking space next to the house, laid down deck tiles, set up a pool for the kiddos, and grilled a bunch of stuff. This is the only time of year that I’m “American”.

I cook biifun five packs at a time

Here’s an uncommon bit of Sega gear for you: the IF-SEGA2L, which allowed for Saturn peripherals to be hooked up to a PC. It could also be connected by an internal cable to a compatible video card or to an optional daughterboard with a VGA output in order to generate an on screen flash to make it…..

The struggle against burnout is real

Hear me out…. Shiso juice and coke…….

The world if the Mega Drive floppy disk drive had been released…

Fun fact: Those first SGI Indigos Tecmo bought? They were actually used for the canceled "Football Fighter" first. Doing my own digging: ryu-highabusa.github.io/tecmotransla... Also dug up some useful DOA memory addresses github.com/ryu-highabus... github.com/ryu-highabus...

Lunch time!

Next up, we have some development materials for the Sega ST-V arcade hardware! archive.org/details/sega...

Got a few interesting things for you today. First, a late prototype of Heavy Nova for the Sega Mega CD. It does not boot, however... (thread) archive.org/details/heav...
