Wow, that was incredible

This is a fun little project I finally wrapped up - visited the Archive this summer with @pc98audi.bsky.social and made a video on that experience.

Man, hard to believe this year gave us both Highguard and Samson: A Tyndalston Story...

Checked out Final Fantasy Resonance - on nearly every platform. Turns out, it also released on Switch 1 and I didn't even realize and didn't have access to that version! Oh well, the others are mostly excellent!

Ah I remember this. @digitalfoundry.bsky.social sat down and muscle memory kicked in.

This ended up being a very fun episode. Was great having @megamatttv.bsky.social on there finally!

The metal popcorn bucket is a nice touch

This really hurts. His work was so inspirational. Wish I could have met him and thanked him. Really sad. :(

Well this is garbage. They're leading the industry down a dark path.

Finally, the video I've been making on Ace Combat is finished! It's nearly 50 minutes long. I simply couldn't hold back and wanted to make this sort of video so hopefully folks enjoy it when it goes live (not sure when yet - but soon)

Something to consider…

Whoa. He’s right.

I love how Ace Combat on 3DS basically has the happy vs angry Kirby thing going on

Ace Combat on 3DS is really darn good. It's one I hadn't given a fair shake in the past but now that I've played through it I think it's amazing. Basically a remake of Ace Combat 2. Amazing music, visuals and fun missions. Alas, I also discovered that one of my New 3DS XLs had a bulging battery. :(

Quick messy test with composite video but it works! Thanks again @lostturntable.bsky.social

Still working on my video! I decided to do a retrospective style piece specifically on the games I ignored in my AC7 video (Zero and onward). First 20 minutes talk about those games then I get into AC8 so it's taking some time! Hopefully finished soon.

After a solid month of work, this is finally complete! I don't often take sponsored content but this was an exciting chance to speak with some legendary talent and showcase elements of its development! Give it a look!

The scenery of Ace Combat 8 is truly breathtaking when you take a moment to look closely at it. Just beautiful.

It’s been a crazy month for games with a huge range of killer titles but, man, Ace Combat 8 and Galactic Racer at the same time is so good. Both games encompass the things I love most in gaming and I feel fortunate to have each of them to enjoy.

Ochi san has been running a new podcast - but for the English version, he'd been using an AI dub to lack of confidence but I believed he could do it on his own. This week, he did! He ditched the AI and recorded the English version himself! Show him some love! podcasts.apple.com/ee/podcast/o...

ALBA歯科 is basically the Nobunaga of the dental world.

Kobayashi san did it again! Masterpiece

Can confirm. Have played a LOT of this. It's absolutely wonderful. They made Star Wars + Motorstorm + Burnout with a unique story mode that is really genuinely new and interesting. Plus more classic modes.

Here’s a recomp project that deserves a look! Slop free goodness.

I remain pretty bummed out by the state of decompilations, ports, FPGA cores etc these days. The rise of GenAI has really flooded the whole scene with garbage and kinda poisoned the whole concept. Good piece from @pandamonium.bsky.social on it www.segasaturnshiro.com/2026/09/24/c...

Always a great time!

Now this is the place to go

Thanks to the generosity of @lostturntable.bsky.social I finally obtained a WonderMega at an affordable price after searching for so long. He also shared his amazing vinyl collection which was simply staggering. Plus we had a great lunch. Thanks James.

Exploring the various lobbies is always fun

Some additional photos from today including a rather boroboro house which caught my eye

Les Vibes!

I finally met James yesterday and we had a great time retro game hunting. I then read this and, having gone through some difficult times in the past myself, it really hit home.

Great episode! Check it out

Yeah. They actually freaking did it. Half-Life Alyx running natively on the Frame. Very very cool to see.

One thing I do like in this game is the abundance of breakable objects. It makes the decent combat feel more interesting and fierce for sure.

With all the blue trails talk in Wolverine, I think it’s worth showing an example. It’s used to represent smell in select instances like this. However, it’s not a GPS trail - you’ll note it lingers in a specific area but doesn’t actually direct you. Also, waypoint markers are optional and off here.
