I love historical accuracy in my video games like this 😜

Cervantes from Soul Calibur, but I've changed his dialogue to read "I wrote Don Quixote!"

This project is really cool. I spend a lot of time playing old games, albeit mostly on emulators..This project enables earning on original . Looking forward to building one.

This was a super welcome surprise today: there's a #HumbleBundle with almost the entire #EarthDefenseForce franchise except for the newest game Earth Defense Force 6. This is probably my favorite game franchise in recent years.

$25 gets you #Steam keys EDF 4.1 and just about all of its DLC, EDF 5, EDF Iron Rain, EDF World Brothers and World Brothers 2. That's like 90% off or something, I don't do math. Also it's like, charity of something?

If you've never played these games before, they are basically old #Kaiju movies where you play as infantry with increasingly unrealistic weaponry, killing swarms of bus-sized insects and aliens and robots etc. They lean into their b-movie atmosphere, and take themselves hilariously seriously.

Usually I opt for the Japanese audio tracks in games like these but the English dub is so hilarious that you have to keep it on.

I woke up thinking about yo-yos. I have no idea why. But this was one we had as a kid and the commercial is just vintage early 90s. The gimmick here is that it automatically comes back because there’s a spring mechanism inside…so a lazy cheaters yo yo.

I remember whacking myself in the head (and other places).

@box464 It's fascinating to me how back in the day, yoyo gimmicks were all about making it come back automatically, while modern yoyos don't come back at all. Making them come back is basically a whole set of tricks to learn in itself. But, the increased spin time allows for tricks that would be impossible on a yoyo that comes back. So much technical advancement in return mechanisms only to be replaced by ... Nothing.

It's become one of the Japanese language's most versatile words. As shown below, it can mean just about everything. But some say it degrades and cheapens the language. Find out more about why some people think the overuse of "yabai" is...well, yabai.

@metawops I'm another MT3 fan. I've never used SA or any other spherical profile, but I've otut MT3s on both of my 40% orthos and I've never typed on anything I've liked better.

Debugging in #Mesen with the Memory Viewer open in dark mode on my secondary monitor. After the game initializes RAM to all 00, each byte is red due to just having been written to. Out of the corner of my eye, these are the same image.

The Memory Viewer in the Mesen NES emulator, after initializing all memory to 00, making all bytes of ram show red as they have just been written to.The very beginning of the title screen sequence from Super Mario Bros 3 for the NES.  The red and black curtain pattern looks very similar to the Memory Viewer image in the other pic on this post.
