A mind forever voyaging. Academic roadkill. A fool for lesser things. Communication is the problem to the answer.

Former games studies and gender studies scholar. Loves collecting physical games for all systems. Has a passion for the histories of gaming.
So thank to Virtual Boy Works by @jparish.bsky.social, I saw that the remaining 8 games, which have been published for the Virtual Boy but are not in the teaser picture, are manly the ones to be expected for licensing issues (SD Gundam: Dimension War; Waterworld; Virtual League Baseball). 1/2

An amateur game scholar's loot from a trip to Dresden and Chemnitz.
With special thanks to the #deutscheSpielemuseum.

Thanks to all the lovely people from @chludens.bsky.social for inviting me to to their workshop in the games lab at the University of Bern.
Learning about the special problems swga.ch is facing and especially all the great chats about gaming magazines and games in general were great.
Thanks a lot.

I forgot, I wanted to include the packaging from @iam8bit.com's release of #Gorogoa:
The backside of the case features a translucent window, which lines up with the manual's outer artwork.
I know it's not Japanese, but it's quite cool.

Hier ein beliebiger Auszug aus meiner Wishlist. Trifft natürlich vor allem ältere und Nischen-Titel.

Arno, ich les gerade das hier. Frage mich, was dies über mich aussagt?

Dear all, to keep my sanity, I need to do some news detox and might be off for a few days.
But I want to leave you with a preview, that led me to one of my favorite games: WayForward's remake of A Boy and His Blob.

A crucial aspect for my love (apart from the adorable art) is the hug button.

Danke #Regensburg: Wenn von 150.000 Einwohner gut 20.000 zur Demo #GemeinsamGegenRechts kommen, dann heißt nie wieder wirklich jetzt.

Ich empfand schon in der Korrespondenz von Navid Kermani und Natan Sznaider sehr berührend, als sich die beiden (wie ja auch in der Einleitung dargelegt) im Moment des größten inhaltlichen Dissens freundschaftlich näher kamen.
