Today I'm releasing an early prototype of Nintendo's "Joy Mech Fight" (FC), from over a year before its release! This build, then named "Battle Battle League" (FDS), was created for the 1992 Nintendo-Dentsu Game Seminar. Links are below! hiddenpalace.org/Battle_Battl...

Yup! Just need to insert a blank file named "develop.ini" into the root directory for SSBM. (from tcrf.net/Super_Smash_...)

Meet the newest babies at the meerkat habitat! The cuddle level is off the charts. 📈 Meerkat pups often huddle together for warmth and bonding. These snuggle piles, or adorable meerkat mounds, are a natural part of their highly social behavior. 💕

Proud to *finally* deactivate my old Twitter account. ('Bout time, right?) On to bigger and better things, I'd say!

As much as I've gotten used to swipe/touchscreen keyboards, I've always had WAY less issues with these "real" physically tactile ones, so I'm all for it (...again, I guess)! :P

armadylo @armadylo.bsky.social · 19/05/2025

I think for me, personally, I'd go for the 3/4 if I only wanted/needed one view like that, since IMO there's usually a better sense of depth with that for referencing!

What's gotten Treble so grumpy?? Artwork by @toonytacocat.bsky.social from their stream last night!

Absolutely time for me, and anyone else in this same position, to delete my old stagnant Twitter account once and for all then. Really gross stuff going on there

Releasing a few Fujitsu FMV-DESKPOWER CDs today! The most notable thing in this lot may be "Pegasus for Windows" (basically like Fujitsu's own Microsoft BOB) which, unlike the FM Towns version, works with basically any Win9x machine. Includes item/room editors, and more! archive.org/details/fmv-...

(You can literally just open up a retail ISO in a hex editor and change the second instance of "debug_level_0" to "debug_level_1" to "convert" it to a debug build without rebuilding the ISO completely!)

Just discovered the intended way to activate debug features in Kirby Air Ride! On every disc is a file named "debug_level_0.ini"; Rename this to "debug_level_1.ini" and boot the game while holding Y to set DbLevel to 3 (otherwise it'll be set to 1)! More information here: tcrf.net/Kirby_Air_Ri...

Well, *this* certainly flew under everyone's radars! In 2022, Max Nasikan did an interview with Eurocom programmer Jon Williams and released four demo levels from the unreleased Maui Mallard 2 on PlayStation. I've just created a Hidden Palace article for this here: hiddenpalace.org/Maui_Mallard...

Just uploaded the rare Japanese Windows 95 version of "Timon & Pumbaa's Jungle Games" (with 1200dpi scans!), which surprisingly hasn't been widely documented yet. This version doesn't have the "Bug Drop" minigame seen in the Western originals, but it's fully dubbed! archive.org/details/timo...

Preserved and published another PC-9821 series System Install CD on the Internet Archive today, this time for the PC-9821 Ce2! Should be useful for those looking for specific Win3.1 drivers for certain "98MULTi" models. archive.org/details/nec-...

For Dinocember, I'll be releasing dumps of the entire Dino Republic series, along with hi-res scans. It appears to be a cute Japanese virtual pet game with extras like trivia and artwork. I'm *pretty* certain this can be considered newly-found "lost media". 🦖👀 archive.org/details/dino...

Today I'm releasing a late US build of Dark Cloud 2 for PlayStation 2, along with a hi-res scan of the disc, and Redump logs. This will identify itself as "Dark Chronicle Ver0.308" once a way to access the Debug Menu is found for this (the final US build is "Ver0.309"). archive.org/details/dc2_...

armadylo @armadylo.bsky.social · 17/11/2024

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure this is because the earliest 2A03 chips didn't have a noise channel "mode" flag properly implemented yet (bit 7 of $400E for anyone interested).

armadylo @armadylo.bsky.social · 11/11/2024

Releasing some new hi-res (600-1200dpi) scans and raw flux dumps of "E.V.O. The Theory of Evolution" (46億年物語) (PC-98) today! (The art shown here is downscaled from 6766x5098)! More information below: archive.org/details/46ok...

Finally got around to scanning/dumping this one: The System Install CD for the NEC PC-9821Cb2! Contains some hard-to-find bundled software, tutorial programs, drivers, and more that might be helpful for some PC-98 users overall! (More PC-98 and DOS/V stuff coming soon.) archive.org/details/nec-...
