@digitaleclipse.bsky.social It's good to see some glitches stay in the games for posterity.

@danamrich.bsky.social Something I find a little odd. Human Smoke uses his fake MKII portrait instead of his MKT portrait for both The Krypt and On-Screen Move List. Why is that? He doesn't have portrait for UMK3, which makes sense as he never had one in that game, but he has several to choose from.

The documentary part of MK Legacy Kollection by @digitaleclipse.bsky.social is great. The only additions I wish were included are the MKM tape, & interviews from more of the original cast, their inspirations/contributions to the games, & some perspective on "Pesina v. Midway Mfg Co" from both sides.

@digitaleclipse.bsky.social @frostman007.bsky.social @danamrich.bsky.social @kohler.bsky.social sky.social Great job on MK Legacy Kollection everyone. But I do need to point out that the original MK comic is missing the 3rd page.

Square-Enix scanned the original Chrono Trigger production artworks and made a video containing very very close-up shots of them. an opportunity to see Toriyama linework/colorwork in such fine detail is a real treasure www.youtube.com/watch?v=gDI_...

I really wish there was a way to filter out all the weirdo furry art when searching for "Godzilla" or "kaiju" on bluesky.

I'm amused that the biggest take away that people have from the official Nintendo Switch 2 reveal is that a prong that nobody has ever held in their hands maybe might possibly break, and Donkey Kong looks weird now.

It figures that when I finally rank number 1 in the Nintendo World Championships, it'd be for a game I don't even like.

If you don't have an answer to "What radicalized you", I invite you to start light with the brilliant Secret Galaxy video about the history of the Monopoly boardgame
I am always impressed by @danlarson.bsky.social and the Secret Galaxy crew.
