Looks like this game is a tribute to Nekketsu! Street Basketball All-Out Dunk Heroes of the Kunio-Kun series of games that I am a sucker for.

If you're in #Montreal, be careful. The freezing rain has coated everything in ice and it looks dangerous as hell. I wouldn't dare attempt to try going down my front steps even with the generous amounts of sand we put down last night in preparation.

Last night, I showed off the really impressive "G-Zero" for the #Sega Genesis, which featured Mode-7-like #SNES visuals
Today, I want to show you another demo from 2022,
with a similar goal.
But this time for the #NES
"Kart Racer '86"

A very "I love you" to every game that supports 32:9 aspect ratio. Star Wars Dark Forces Remastered isn't the prettiest game and this isn't a great example of the few places it is, but it's still nice.

So happy to be on Christmas holidays. I think I may be going through some burnout and if I'm thinking that enough to say it, it's probably worse than I even think it is.
Been taking longer and longer naps, waking up later than expected, etc... I really just need some time away.

I owned one of these, the Xperia Play. As cool as it was, it launched really underpowered and the controls weren't as great as they looked, better than touchscreen controls. I would love to see today's technology applied to this concept. I have little doubt it would blow this away, wouldn't be hard.

You know, there are times I think I'm a civilized human being. And then there are times when I'm laughing so hard at something so dumb that I'm crying and this is one of those times. Holy shit.

Capcom's seminal brawler has finally made its way to the Genesis with a ton of new features! Developer @mxretrodev.bsky.social has spent months fine-tuning the port, and the result is a Christmas present Genesis fans will definitely want to have on their flash carts.

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...

Welcome, Twitter escapees/new Bluesky users. Four quick tips:
1. Starter packs are awesome. I made a game dev one here -> go.bsky.app/RxQCsKS
2. Bluesky's block is much more potent. Do not quote, or dunk. There's no pay-to-win so silence does remove nasty people. Blocks and move on copiously.
