Well that's another anniversary I missed, but woo, Super Mario Bros is 40 years old...a couple of years ago one cold Christmas/New Year in my apartment in Iwate, I sat down with my pencil and some color pencils and recreated the Japanese box art. #retrogaming #supermariobros #artwork #nintendo

Happy 30th to the PlayStation in North America. Sure we got it nearly a year earlier in Japan back then, but to this day, it's one of the most rad systems ever conceived. So here's some new artwork and merch to celebrate that!

My latest review of Popolocrois Monogatari has had 88 people watch it, rad! Haha I love the fact that the rubbish heap is so niche but it would be even more rad if more people knew about the heap and what we're doing. Spread the word, share a link, write a kind word or tune in - it's all good :)

This week on the heap, a review of an early JRPG for the PlayStation that time has slowly forgotten, especially as apart from a cut down release on the PSP it was never released outside of Japan. Saki as always will give you the full low down on Friday! And spoiler alert, it's great! #retrogaming

Umm

Saki Endo's Rubbish Heap the retro game review channel with attitude. It's been 1 year since the channel started and nearly 30 reviews revealing interesting Japanese games to those who can't understand a word to those on their way to fluency. All done with AI - Awesome Individuals :) #retrogaming

How did the PC Engine get its name? These are 3 good reasons how Hudson Soft's and NEC's awesome Famicom challenger got its name. This is the first one and you can hear all 3 reasons in this deep dive into the early years of the PC Engine: www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQwO... #pcengine #retrogaming

Rad reviews on the way! This Friday a Sega Saturn game, and then in 2 weeks time, a GameBoy cult classic that never made it outside of Japan. And I'm currently playing this rad visual novel, Ranma 1/2 Torware no Hanayome (The Captive Bride). See all this now from $2 a month: patreon.com/pixel_vixen/

Capcom vs. Konami on the Super Nintendo! The gang review 10 classic games with Saki judging the overall winner.

The Rubbish Heap mostly reviews Japanese games and their accessibility to non Japanese speakers, lifting the lid on a world of gaming! #retrogaming #snes

The Rubbish Heap will be giving the original PlayStation some love in 2025 as it celebrates 30 years since its launch in Japan on December 3rd 1994. What are some of your favorite PlayStation games?

Saki explains the fog of war effect with Kaito who is just one big fog head :) Check out the review of B.B. Gun on the Super Nintendo, a forgotten gem turn based strategy game based on air-soft that is *really* good! www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJzQ...
