STOP THE PRESSES.
The ROM for the unreleased Famicom RPG Splatter World has been released (in a thread on 4chan, of all places). I've tried it myself, and it does seem to be genuine. If it's a fake, it's a damn good one.
Expect (more) coverage on West Mansion soon.

If you buy Midnight Landing on Arcade Archives this week, you'll receive a Biorhythm calculator at no extra cost! You can use it to measure your humors or whatever, I don't know. I'm not from the 70s.

We're a bit late to the party, but Data Crystal turned 20 years old last month! That's... old.
DC is the sister wiki to TCRF, focused on reverse engineering, datamining, and documentation; stuff useful for ROM hacks and fan translations.

Getting into the groove of making articles again. Here's one for Strategy X, which was released on Arcade Archives a few weeks back. Includes version differences with the older Stern set, an unused enemy, and evidence for a possible older Konami set buried in Stern's version.

If you've been sitting on something you've wanted to document, now might be a good time to finally log in and write that article. (Or at least log in.)
going to clean up unused accounts on the wiki tomorrow
if you have an account and have made any edit at all, your account won't be deleted. this only affects accounts that were registered and never actually used, and only if they haven't been logged into in >180 days.

Now that Deltarune has been out for a few weeks, you might want to take a look inside the game! A big chunk of chapter 3 got cut, and there's a lot of unused sprites throughout both new chapters.

A larger number of items from Gaelco's archives were given to us recently. Amongst them was a World Rally prototype (on Modular System) from before Carlos Sainz image was covered with a giant helmet. The development story is well known, so this is an important piece of history.

Happy pride month! To celebrate, the logo rotates through a few different pride flags, and the Discord server icon has been changed to be a little more colorful.

This is a week late, but here's a TCRF article on Dead Connection that I made a few years back. Notable finds include a big debug menu, scrapped 4P support, a location test screen, hidden cameos from Zak and Mel of Pu-Li-Ru-La fame, and a mess of unused destructibles.

It's impossible to 100% Space Station Silicon Valley (N64) due to one of the trophies being intangible, but good news! The PlayStation port (that renamed it to Evo's Space Adventures, halved the framerate, removed some levels, and replaced the whole soundtrack) fixed it!

Howdy folks! After some investigation, it looks like the wiki has been under an ongoing but intermittent DDoS attack.
We've added some mitigations that should hopefully result in seeing less 502 errors. Sorry for the inconvenience!
