kind of neat detail, dolphin must be hiccuping
Zoid Kirsch @ZoidCTF • 13h Replying to @ZoidCTF In this clip as Samus approaches the Pulse Bombu, the screen fills with static to show interference with her visor. As we worked on this a big issue is the memory use of the noise texture. The Gamecube only has 24MB of RAM, so every texture has to be carefully considered. Zoid Kirsch @ZoidCTF If we used a low resolution texture (64x64) to save memory the "static" would be blurry and not crisp. One engineer on the team came up with a great idea: what if we just use the memory holding the Metroid Prime code itself! We quickly tried it out and it looked amazing.

another zwift post, but it's working a lot better for me than scenic rides on peloton. There's a weird part of this where it reminds me of mario kart world's open roads, except it's a strength here

FF Tactics attaches your save data to a .png

This seems like bad practice?
a ff tactics save file opened in 010 editor, between the IHDR and IDAT chunks is one called 'ffTo' windows explorer looking at the different 'autoenhanced png, enhanced.png, and system.png' data files that are also images

Ultrawide support for Hollow Knight 2 looks great, and I'm very happy that the UI is bound to 16:9.
screenshot of the pretty early in Silksong with a 21:9 aspect ratio. Lots of moss fills the screen.

I wish I was making this up: trying to load it onto my switch (bottom) from the top one gives the SAME error, but it actually went through
This time the top switch has the same error, except it actually worked on the bottom one

this Virtual Game Card shit is so poorly implemented
Two Nintendo Switch 2s next to each other, both online, yet the bottom one is saying the top one is offline

Pokemon Sleep is so funny, like on one hand it encourages you to set a consistent bedtime with a punch card for hitting it.

On the other, if you decide you want to go to bed earlier because that'd be better for you? you will be punished *because you could be cheating* somehow
A warning message in Pokemon Sleep stating "Changing your bedtime will reset your progress on your stamp card. Are you sure you want to change it?"

What if lowering the font size causes a ghostly image of the text to appear...that'd be a pretty good joke to play just saying
The word "Example" in white text on a black background. A faded, ghostly image of the word is seen above it
