Oh? What's new, then...?

...

God, I can't wait for this fucking bubble to burst.

For #RandomGameSaturday, a not so great photo but, from what I can tell, a fine adaption of the TCG at the time, and one of the system's vertical games -- Bandai's 2002 Digital Monster Card Game Ver. WonderSwan Color, for, well, the WSC~
November 8, 2025 at 3:05 PM
Been improving my old "English mode enable hack" for Digimon Tamers Battle Spirit Ver 1.5 (what a mouthful!) for the WonderSwan Color a bit the last few days.

I'm pretty positive I got all instances of the GPIO check remnants, fixed a bug in the original localization, tweaked some graphics, etc...

God, my C is reeeeeeally rusty... but here, have an emulated WonderSwan Color, err...fading from black to green, and black to green, and black to green...over and over.

... hey, it's something, leave my high-level C#-using self alone! 😅

Ahh, I knew I recovered it a while back alongside the rest of the data from a mostly dead HDD -- my old, IIRC relatively complete Digimon D-1 Tamers save data from 2006. Would be nice to use this on an actual WonderSwan eventually~

It's waiting...

Back from a day out (pretty far out from here, in fact), and while my feet kinda hurt now, it was very fun~

*browsing last repost*

...oh. oh no ;_;

My infrequent reminder that I should've started watching Sana much earlier -- not just literally a day or so before her graduation announcement...

Not 100% sure if it's strictly purple, but probably Nintendo's purple/clear GameCube controller, with the purple front and translucent clear back!

Got mine over 15 years ago, maybe around 2008? Still works great and is my go-to for Cube and Wii games like Mario Kart, Smash Bros or Zelda WW/TP.

Somebody stop me, I'm having way too much fun starting new games, I need to get back to Bouncing UFO and whatnot...!

... siiiiiigh. That said, uhm, "The Saga of Bootleglda: Fauxink's Jumping-Out-Of-Bed"?

The...the fox friend got even cuter... How do they keep getting away with making them even cuter all the time...?!

... and I hope they do keep getting away with it ❤️

Still not finished by any means -- not tested, HDDs not back in, not screwed together --, but we're looking good so far 👍
October 5, 2025 at 11:42 PM
And the Plextor PX-W1210TS, 12/10/32x CD-RW drive from January 2002, cleaned up even nicer than the PX-40TSi.

Also, have a beauty(?) shot of the two together~
October 5, 2025 at 12:54 PM
Plextor PX-40TSi, 40x CD-ROM drive from August 1999, still untested due to a lack of easily accessible SCSI-capable machine, but at least much cleaner than when I got it and the other drives :3
October 5, 2025 at 12:45 PM
Correction: The SCSI tower also has two hard drives inside, at least one of them being a 36.7 GB IBM Ultrastar~

First Sunday of the month flea market finds~

Got a pretty dirty four-slot SCSI tower with two optical drives by Plextor (one CD-ROM, one CD-RW?), for 15€, and a copy of XIII for the original Xbox, for 5€ 👍
October 5, 2025 at 10:43 AM
Colors on completion~

This took me longer than I care to admit, but I ~think~ I've got hints in my nonogram/Picross thingy figured out and working... I think. But I bet there'll be some edge cases or, worse, blatant problems I'll find later on...

Had me dig out mine (NTSC US) to see if it still worked, since it was a pretty poor condition flea market find over a decade or so ago -- but yep, still works! :3
September 29, 2025 at 9:31 AM
Oops, I Switch-ed up my nonogram~

(did not directly copy any graphics from any Picross S game -- tho some hint numbers ended up extremely similar --, but did copy the basic screen layout very closely; plus, all graphics are subject to change anyway)

Based on an old attempt in MonoGame from 2023, now using Foster -- haven't ported the graphics and whatnot over yet tho, so it looks just a tiny bit basic, heh 😅
