I can't find any info online about which games/how many games had these, nor any scans of them, but they're a cool little niche of Nintendo history.

The most interesting bit is the Super Game Boy instruction booklet, which I haven't seen before, I didn't know they made these!

It's just a z-fold style leaflet with very little info on it, mainly just an advert for the Super Game Boy, which Tetris 2 doesn't really seem to utilise that much?

The game itself is ok, more like Dr Mario than Tetris, there are blocks in the playfield you have to get rid of by matching up three same coloured blocks.

The instruction booklet is again in that nice clear two tone style, less fun than Kirby's Pinball Land but still pretty good.

Another recent Game Boy purchase, the not entirely necessary Tetris 2!

This is from that early 90s period where Nintendo were like "Well we've got the Tetris license, let's shove it on a load of semi-related puzzle games!" to the... delight? of all involved? Maybe?

Now that the dust has settled on Thought Bubble we can officially say... Beyond the Black Void vol 1 is LAUNCHED!!

A horror/sci-fi anthology from Jackrabbit Comics featuring a huge array of creators, including my story The Royal Oak, drawn by RHStewart and lettered by Bram Meehan.

Had a brilliant weekend at @thoughtbubbleuk.bsky.social! Lovely to chat to friends old and new, amazing to meet the Beyond the Black Void crew in person, and I loved panelling for the first time ever! Massive thanks to @iamgiantwoman.bsky.social for hosting and keeping us in line. Roll on next year!

Annual rewatch completed (cliché? don't care!) I'm always in awe of how excellent this series is, effortlessly funny and heartfelt.

The next issue of Uncle Zaxlor's Robot Repair Shop is nearly finished!!
There's one more thing to sort out though - the letters page.
Having problems with your robots? Email Uncle Zaxlor at uncle.zaxlor[at]gmail.com for some (ahem) 'expert' advice and your letter might appear in the new issue!

I've been away this week so my copy of BOXES vol. 4 from @thirdbearpress.bsky.social was waiting for me when I got home! My favourite cover of all of the volumes so far I think, great art from @aimeelockwood.bsky.social 😍
