Found this while clearing out some files from my phone! It's the ship I created a couple years back when I tried out Starfield.

The Fiddler Crab!

That game was ALL about ship building for me. I could get lost for hours just putting together new ship designs. 😅

I've mentioned before that Super Air Zonk: Rockabilly Paradise for the TurboGrafx 16 is the single most valuable game I own, and it's not even by a small margin.

Things have been a bit precarious lately, however, and I'm thinking of selling it. Anyone know a good platform to do so that isn't ebay?😟

My Dreamcast VM2 arrived today! While messing around with it, I discovered that the Windows management software has a streaming function!

You can effectively stream the VM2 screen to the app, then make the app a video source in OBS to include the VMU with game capture if you're a streamer!😄 Neat!!

Tubby the Tuba followed immediately by The Terminator.

Or that's how it was in my childhood.

I suppose that's what they're here for. I'm not too worried.

Hum...suppose this means I'm "boring." 😑

I enjoy a game with a good story, but games these days are all trying too hard to be the next big epic theatrical experience. Sometimes it's nice to just blow sh** up! 😁

Burnout Crash! was great for that! Sadly it's forever digitally locked to PS3 and XB360. It deserves a port to modern platforms!

I'll admit, this is one I haven't played very much of. It was not one of my childhood games, but I did pick this up at some point along the way. 😅

My launch edition Wii is my current Gamecube. With that nice Gamecube hardware built in (no nifty handle though 😔).

I think one sadly overlooked game is P.N.03. Was a GC exclusive from Capcom, and sadly it's never been ported anywhere else. They could've at least put Vanessa Schneider in MvC.

Post the last four games you played.

I'd say ESPN Extreme Games (later renamed "1 Xtreme") on PS1.

Discovered it on the demo disc that came with my launch PS1, and I played the crap out of it! 😁

It was unexpected because I'm not into sports, never watched ESPN, but it plays very much like Road Rash on skates/bikes/skateboards/luges.

I never even knew the series made it to GBA. Apparently both Tricky and 3 were.

SSX 3 was one of my favorites on OG Xbox, but Tricky on Gamecube was my introduction to the series.

I've still never played SSX 1. Need to check it out someday.

Hot diggity, I got the Xbox 360 I won on auction today and got the backwards compatibility working on it! I can play my Xbox copy of Burnout 3 again! 😆

(I also own a PS2 copy, but the Xbox copy is the superior version).

This is my first time ever participating in this #randomgamesaturday thing but looks like I came up with Cratermaze for the TG-16.

This was actually a reskin of a Doraemon game for western audiences that were not as familiar with the iconic earless cat.

In all truthfulness, the Genesis/MegaDrive was 3rd place for me in the 16 bit era after the TurboGrafx and SNES, but I still loved many games for it all the same.

Hands-down my favorite game on the console was Gunstar Heroes! Treasure lived up to their name with this amazing run-n-gun!

This was always one of my favorites.

I don't have a GOG account, but I browsed a bit through what's on sale. I can definitely recommend Holy Potatoes We're In Space!

I wasn't expecting much out of it, but I was pleasantly surprised to find it an entertaining tactical combat game! ...featuring potato people...yeah. 😅

In the early 90s, before game-focused stores were a widespread thing, lil fledgling Pigeon used to buy and sell games through mail-order. 😅

It all started for me with a company going by the name, Play-It-Again. Their prices were pretty fair! 😁

I used to have one of these MadKatz 32-page PS1 memory cards.

I know 32 memory cards worth of storage seems a bit excessive, but admittedly, I was a dirty filthy pirate as a teenager with my, then state-of-the-art, CD-R drive. Even then I only ever used maybe 8 of the pages. 😑

Whoever thinks an ingredient can only be used for one thing doesn't know what cooking means. That person should be ashamed of themselves.

Everything they know as "cooking" was created from someone else's experimentation. Experimenting with foods doesn't just stop. People will always try new things.

If you see this, post an image you saved because it made you laugh.
