The day I stopped describing my game collection as a backlog and started thinking of it as a library was a good day. A library is not only filled with books you have read. It should be filled with both books you have read and those you want to read. Same with games.

@takiudon.bsky.social Appreciate that you are very busy with the SuperStation - but I wondered if you had any plans to restock any MiSTER Pi bundles/components in the near future?

@dark1x.bsky.social Just wanted to say - your take on the death of physical games on this week's DF weekly... You captured how so many of us are feeling. Thank you for articulating so perfectly what this means. Not just for hardcore collectors but for everyone who buys games. We all lose out.

Among the many reasons the death of physical games is bad (ownership, price, monopolies, 2nd hand, preservation, etc.) another small loss is the end of buying games as gifts for people. That simple act of choosing a game and seeing the joy as someone unwraps it... www.eurogamer.net/sony-ending-...

Fast forward a few years and IO make their 'Perfect Dark' while Amazon push out some lazy Bond game that no one likes.

Thanks @frankcifaldi.bsky.social and @theycreateworlds.bsky.social for this episode, it was fascinating and really challenged some long held assumptions about why Sega floundered in the mid 90s. The context of global economics and the nuances of US Vs Japanese accounting were interesting!

@daemzero.bsky.social On Gamescoop this week you had a segment complaining that Terminator 2D: No Fate is selling for $60... But on the Nintendo eShop it's listed at $30?

Rockstar: tries to bust unions🦹‍♀️ Us: Hold my controller 🎮🔥🔥 We're fighting back 💥💥 IWGB organized a protest in front of the @rockstargames.com parent company Take-Two Interactive in London today We'll make sure the credits are rolling on their corporate greed ❌️ @gameworkers.co.uk

In one of the most shameless instances of union-busting Rockstar Games fired 30+ IWGB union members for NO OTHER REASON than to terrorize & silence them. Join the IWGB protest! Demand reinstatement! 📅 Thursday, 6 November 🕙 8:00 AM - 9:00 AM 📍Take-Two House, 30 Cleveland Street, London, W1T 4JD

Police are also questioning singer Eddie Money, for claiming to be in possession of two tickets to paradise.

I'm very lucky that my absolute favorite anime of all time (SDF Macross) was also released in my birth year of 1982...

@takiudon.bsky.social Any ETA on when you may have some more MiSTer USB Hubs available at retroremake.co/?

...but no upgrade option if you own the Switch 1 game? www.nintendolife.com/news/2025/07...

Ghost of Yotei looks outstanding. There's only one problem... I still haven't played Ghost of Tsushima! I've got the PS5 director's cut sitting unopened in a box in my game collection... Just haven't found the time to play it! www.pushsquare.com/features/pol... (via @pushsquare.com)

Would it be too much to get a #Switch2 physical release too? TBH I've lost track of how many #Gunvolt games/versions/spin-offs there are now... Kinda need it all in one set. https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2025/07/azure-striker-gunvolt-trilogy-enhanced-announced-for-switch

Why do I get the feeling this will be Japan only? Would love a western physical release on Switch 2... www.nintendolife.com/news/2025/07... (via @nintendolife.com) #Switch2 #Nintendo #JRPG

I got the 'bad ending' on my first playthrough of Witcher 3. Still one of my all time favourite games but man, that ending was cruel.

Movie you’ve watched more than six times using gifs. (“Hard mode” no Star Wars, Star Trek, or LOTR)

My 5 to 9 grind is called 'spending time with my wife and children'. Maybe Will.i.am should try it. fortune.com/2025/03/23/m...

Every developer that turns out a crappy Switch port of their 3D openworld game needs to play Monolith Soft's Switch games. Absolute masterclass in how to make that hardware sing.

@midimyers.com can you please convince @kirkhamilton.com to share online the Monster Hunter Wilds guide that he wrote for you and @jasonschreier.bsky.social ?

Spare a few mins and lend a hand with this, peeps. It's the kind of thing that a stand needs to be taken on so it doesn't become (increasingly) normalized.

If you see this, post a fictional artist/band that you would love to see live.

...but we applaud our cultured brethren who binge true crime docs on Netflix every night.

#Nintendo will announce the #Switch2 at some point in the next 10 weeks and 4 days!

hi on January 10 at around 9 pm, someone stole this backpack and a laptop bag out of my car while I was loading up to evacuate from the LA fires. whoever took it please return the sentimental items, particularly a bag with handwritten notes from my parents and my dads lord of the rings books

This prediction will age like milk.

Post a game you got for Christmas. Double Dragon for Gameboy. Christmas 1992, aged 10. I woke up ridiculously early on Christmas morning, maybe 4am, found this in my stocking (we had them in our bedrooms) and then played this on my Gameboy til morning!

Whoop! Mister Pi on the way… Thank you @takiudon.bsky.social

PS1: Metal Gear Solid PS2: Devil May Cry PS3: The Last of Us PS4: The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt PS5: Elden Ring

I've played Nier Automata through twice and absolutely loved it. A game that has unquestionably stayed with me in many ways. Meanwhile, Replicant has been on my rainy day list for a long time. Always had this nagging thought that I'd unfairly compare it with Automata and therefore not like it...

Surely this game is prime material for a modern era remaster/remake? I know we had the 2015 3DS version but even that seems dated by 2024 standards (and inaccessible/locked to a previous gen handheld console).

A new PlayStation handheld is an interesting idea. If it supports HDMI out, then it will cannibalize PS5 sales. It will also push Sony further towards digital only, as clearly it won't support discs or cartridges. www.pushsquare.com/news/2024/11...

@takiudon.bsky.social How sturdy is the USB port on the FPGA Board? I ordered the Base Kit, RAM module and case. Hoping that I can fit all that together without needing the USB hub board? I only want to connect a single USB controller.

Anyone finding the #DragonQuest II HD 2D remake a bit… basic? It looks and sounds beautiful but the story and mechanics feel very limited - especially after Octopath Traveller II (which had one of the best turn-based combat systems in recent years). dragonquest.square-enix-games.com/games/en-gb/...
