New Sierra game is crazy. The puzzle to get George back in the band is way to obtuse. And don't get me going on the part where you have to navigate Yoko's art exhibition.

The power of mu! There's an obscure bit of Chrono Trigger lore involving Masa & Mune's big sister, Doreen, that actually helps make sense of a random hanging thread in Super Mario Bros. 2. This one got super weird!

It is possible to break the Frog Flap microgame in WarioWare simply by being too skillful. Red platforms speed up the frog, blue ones slow it down. By skipping red platforms and landing on the blue ones, the frog will eventually start flying and never come back down.

29 long years have passed since I founded the emulation archive, Zophar's Domain, on 11.9.96. To this very day, the site still stands as a testament to an era that never actually disappeared but continues to live in the hearts of retrogamers all over the word. Emulation Forever!

This isn't an official hashtag random game Saturday post since, like, that's all of my posts, but sometimes it's good to remind yourself the Japanese PS2 library is so beautifully diverse that it has multiple licensed fast food games that not only have good covers, they're just Good Games, period. 😌
