(He/Him) I’m a big fan of video games, video game history, and anime.
Currently spending my spare time working on trying to find all of the digital pinball games released for consoles and handhelds. And playing Wacca. I love Wacca.

Somedays, when there is a flurry of chaos around me, and there is nothing that I can do to rectify the madness, I go back in time and fight Chaos my way.
Final Fantasy I&II Dawn of Souls, 2004, GBA.
This is my go to version of FF I. The QOL and bonus features make it shine.

(1/) I don’t really have the energy to do a full writeup on my Best/Worst Games Beaten in 2025, so I’ll just do a quick summary.
I wound up playing through around 58 games this year, brand new and very old, mostly great, a few of them terrible. 24 of these were ones I completed for the first time.

This is unreal. In this month's @romchip.bsky.social: This author was researching "superguns," unofficial devices used to play arcade games at home
Sooo they built their own, following the instructions from vintage Japanese electronics magazines from the 80s/90s

Please share if you can. Nick was such a huge part of the mag.
Nik’s funeral is taking place on 30th December at 1pm GMT. For those that can’t attend, the funeral will be live-streamed. We have tried to contact as many of Nik’s friends as we could, but we may have missed some. The link is watch.obitus.com username: cuma6886 pin:962499

Have you ever wanted to play an R-Zone game and not get an immediate migraine?
Indy 500 for R-Zone, 1996, Tiger and Sega.
I can't capture the action because it projects lit sprites onto the red mirror.
It's LCD racing. There are 3 gears and occasional scenery around the track.

Merry Christmas! If you'd like to spend 45 minutes celebrating video game history with me, we're about to debut The Untold Story of the Nintendo Entertainment System. I worked on his ALL YEAR, and I genuinely think it will reshape how we all think about the system. www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJvp...

A Christmas special that takes place in Ohio? @talcotts.bsky.social is this in your radar?
My wife would not watch Hot Frosty with me, but she did agree to this, and honestly it's just as ridiculous as a snowman come to life.
A witch sends a 14th century Knight to modern day Ohio and he falls in love with Vanessa Hudgens... As one does.

One of my friends got a copy of Floigan Bros for DC with a Blockbuster sticker like this back in the early 00s. He tried to carefully take it off. This resulted in pulling the data layer off from the top side, totally killing it.
Ever since then, we’ve called discs like these “Floiganed.”

I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.
