We just lost an incredible member of the Saturn community. If you can, please consider helping the family of Dan Frederickson. I’m still at a total loss for words. Just absolutely crushed. www.gofundme.com/f/help-my-fr...

Released patches for House of the Dead on Saturn; in the process of making the "activate red blood" patch, I discovered a hidden Japanese mode! Now the JPN version can be played with the three blood colors that are absent from both revisions of its retail release :)

With David Rosen's death, bad information about Sega as a company is starting to re-emerge across the internet.
I will try to give a very condensed version of the Sega corporate shenanigans here as to clear some of the air. 🧵

Wake up babe, new NiGHTS lore just dropped.
![Trivia:
In my logo, only the “i” is lowercase.
It represents a tiny “love” (pronounced [aɪ] in Japanese) just starting to bloom between Elliot and Claris — a small love story.

Unbeknownst to pretty much everyone, the first-person shooter "Vigilant Paradise" was released for Saturn in November 2025; AFAIK the developer never teased this on SegaXtreme or anywhere else so it's really quite astonishing! It's currently on sale for $7 on itch.io

Sega Saturn alert!! Someone casually spent five years making a complete first-person shooter for the Saturn and basically shadowdropped the thing more than a month ago. The Saturn scene is just now finding out about it. Looks incredible!!

it’s stupid when gamers say gaming is expensive, yet ignore ROM hacks. It’s like saying you’re hungry when there’s a fan translation of Linkle Liver Story on the ground outside

Adding to the choir of those singing the praises, you probably already saw this post swing by your feed by now. Just coming in to say that I just watched this and it was extremely well put together. You should watch it too if you have not already.
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...
