You can let out all your subconscious crankiness in THANK YOU BUS DRIVER, and garner appreciation from innocent passengers for keeping rude riders in check. SLAP rule breakers, or throw them out the back of the bus if they don't behave! ๐๐๐๐ผ Get Slappy: https://doublefine.com/tybd
I'm not sure if this is an obscure fact, but it depends on who it's obscure to... A lot of people into retro gaming would already know this for instance!

Okay, yeah, I had a feeling I'd like it. The John Gleep demo is very funny, very stupid, and very smart. A fusion of arcade alien abduction, Balatro/Peggle fusion, casino management and stock market manipulation, and every part of it is dumb as rocks. The intro is so good.

And as a neat follow up, it looks like the location of the rented warehouse they fulfilled from has been located and photographed! bsky.app/profile/cont...
The NES turns 41 today (launched Oct. 18, 1985). As revealed at @retrogamingexpo.bsky.social, @winterion.com, James (legendofNES.com), and I found and documented the Hackensack, NJ, warehouse Nintendo used for its test-market launch. Itโs still standing and looks nearly identical.

I need to check this game out at some point!
Here's an update on how the retranslation is looking! If you've played the game before, believe me when I say this is doing more to make it feel fresh than the colorization itself. It still needs a final editing pass, but I'm really happy with how it's coming together.

FREEZE issue 88 has just landed thanks to @freeze64.bsky.social, and perfect timing for reading on the bus this week. Had a quick scan and the interview with Martin Walker and feature on Back to the Future looks brill, can't wait to dive in! Available soon via: freeze64.com/freeze64-iss...
I remember this game being loaded up on my C64, although the tape was taken out after... Of course, at the same time, I don't recall making it past the first level, so that probably didn't matter!
A little Commodore 64 preservation today with an early prototype of Scooby Doo and Scrappy Doo from 1991 added to Games That Weren't. Likely a progress build, there's no sound and potentially a few differences to the final game. www.gamesthatwerent.com/2026/09/scoo...

Ooh... I need to get something up and running to play this! I'm not exactly a fan of Iron Maiden right now, but I am a fan of gaming history and lost games!
MELT, a lost 1997 PC game featuring Iron Maiden's Eddie, has been recovered! We're releasing a build for the first time, along with source code and an updated version for modern PCs. We also speak to developer Paul Tebbutt. Thanks to Tamaracade for their earlier research.
