Genuine question - do "retro" video games really exist any more? When I started reviewing "retro" games in 2007, Mario World was 16 years old. That's how old New Super Mario Bros, Minecraft, Demon's Souls, Uncharted 2, Arkham Asylum, and RE5 are now. Are they considered "old" but not “retro"?

Thanks for the nice write up, SD_GeNo!

I'm very honored you were looking forward to these games so much and that they met your expectations. I definitely hope to put out more.

The concept of new GBA e-Reader cards in 2025 is a wild thing, and I’m so impressed at how @retrodotcards.com make these paper cards come to life on my GBA. This release was unironically my most anticipated game(s) of the year, and I wasn’t disappointed.

Yes, another player! We are up to 9 players now. You and @sd-geno.bsky.social are already quite good, round 17 with Jeff is no joke.
I got my e-Reader cards and now it's time to start practicing so I can get really good at Exo Attack. I'm sure I can get past round 17 if I'm more careful and use the shield more strategically. I've been camping in the corner and letting the bubbles float up.

I had to make a new campaign to get twitch integration to work but between the two we’ve already raised $11K for @translifeline.org. Thank you so much to everyone who gave their time helping me put this together, and anyone who gave money to make this possible.

As more and more government information disappears, we're glad to see @archive.org (which has done so much already to preserve our online history) become an official Federal Depository Library!

I’ve trash talked this game a lot, but never actually sat down to beat it. I didn’t set out to beat Mega Man 1 tonight, but I just powered through. And honestly, it’s not as bad as I’ve made it out to be vocally and in my mind. It’s far from perfect, but I’ve played worse.
