A cool look at why retro consoles are doing the business right now.

Believe it or not, I did not plan the release of two great arcade cartridges with Japanese greats to coincide with Tokyo Game Show.

This is pretty much the EuroMillions jackpot tomorrow, to put this in some kind of mad context.

I get ads all the time. But the new powder mix energy drinks one that claims old school energy drinks are giving me anxiety are especially egregious. Not least because I don’t drink energy drinks of any kind and pretty much exclusively only have sparkling water.

This is not a problem.

Hey Bluesky Followers! How are you? I've been crap at posting on any social media lately, but I'm still here and still working out what I should post about. If I'm going to throw stuff to the void, I at least want it to be some kind of productive void filler.

These are not Brannigan’s. But they are as close as I’ve had since they stopped making them.

Off to Gamescom next week. No stand but am moving around the halls. If any journalists/media what to chat about the rise of retro and nostalgia in gaming, and see cool Evercade stuff, let me know.

My week long nap is done.

Time to nap for a week

Definitely not feeling like a prime human tonight. Maybe grade D human.

Back by the sea. Still no danger of swimming. Say hi if you’re at Develop Brighton!

I'll be at Develop Brighton next week! Let's meet up!

Crap. I’ve joined a gym again.

Thanks MCVDevelop!

I drove to the MCV Awards. I didn’t drink. And I still feel like I should have booked today off.

Who am I seeing at the MCVDevelop Awards then?

Dump of some recent photos

Feel like I’ve got a few blogs in me tonight. But I’m going to sleep on them.

I would like back all the sleep I've lost, please. Which form do I fill out for this?

A lot of work went into this one. Would love to see you there!

Let’s go! 🛤️

Every now and then, this scene just enters my head. A pub. In an organ! youtu.be/1kBIlD8Dmr8?...

Had a week off. This is some of my week.

One day I shall be honoured enough to BAFTA. One day.

Turned 41 last week. Having some time off and realised how spent I am. I need to to start looking after myself and balancing myself a hell of a lot better than I currently do.

And that's my brain power completely gone. Phew.

If you want to see what we've been working on for the start of this year then come check out our showcase. You might even hear my voice! www.youtube.com/watch?v=COZv...

Today this is me: Press/News writers - get in touch if you want the info on tonight’s Evercade Showcase under embargo.

Kryten: Sir, they've taken Mr. Rimmer. Sir, they've taken Mr. Rimmer! Cat: Quick, let's get out of here before they bring him back! That still lives rent-free in my head 33 years later

Really enjoying Andor. Despite my immersion breaking after realising all the light fittings are egg slicers. Can’t unsee it.

The TV Production premise for Stargate SG-1 is great when you think about it. One set - magic gate - takes you to an on location woods. Call it sci-fi. Job done

Everyone going down the nostalgia path for The Sims is making me want to play Sim Golf again.

Back to work tomorrow. Already been in bed for the past 30 mins, desperately trying to switch my brain off. I realise this isn’t helping that. But even the Shipping forecast isn’t working at just zoning me out.

Right, let's commit myself to record then: 2025: Lose weight (exercise more) Less booze (preferably none for a while) Read more (ideally a book a week) Save more dosh (or spend it more wisely) Win lottery. I'd put something about gaming backlogs but let's be honest, they never leave.

If the newspapers tomorrow don’t use the headline “New Years Breeze” then we are in the worst timeline.

Just thinking how cool it would be if we got a compilation of Lego Lord of the Rings and Lego The Hobbit remastered, with the promised DLC of the final movie completed and included, and maybe some Rings of Power content?

My New Year’s resolution is to export more video in the burgeoning RealPlayer .rm format.

Refreshing to see what @wretchedmorgan.bsky.social thought of that. #doctorwho

You'd think I'd have had something to do with this. I didn't. Andi doing great work on highlighting something that really should be in the conversation of the most influential 3D racing games.

My best friend has just started working for a Japanese company and I feel it’s my responsibility to give him an education into Japanese cuisine. Throw ideas at me!

I'd like to go for a nap for 3 weeks please.

My body is very much starting to give me the signals to change a few things. It always does this time of year and I’m terrible to it. I’ve already got one foot into next year and haven’t really had the chance to slow, relax and take stock.

Another big day at Evercade HQ

Seen @hkt3030.bsky.social do this so giving it a go.

What I wouldn’t give for this to get an X/S patch.

The worst thing that happened to my self confidence is the angle every single laptop webcam captures you at.

Had an idea for an episode of Doctor Who for months now. It’s stuck around in my head so maybe I’ll write it and speculatively send it in.

Show me your pet and what they were named after
