Because I didn't have internet, I completely missed my recent feature on @nintendolife.com going live so here it is: Mario Kart Tour ends tomorrow. I played it every day for seven years, and now I'm wondering if it was all worth it... www.nintendolife.com/features/opi...

An increasingly common thing I see: people assuming that very small teams, making the childhood games we loved, only had really compartmentalised roles like "manual" or "producer". Everyone needs a job title, but there was a ton of creative overlap that mostly goes unacknowledged! It got messy.

all vibe-coded ports look and feel like shit because theyre made by people without the experience or passion to pay attention to the small details these projects are like a disease to the reverse engineering community and must be rejected at all costs if we want to maintain a standard of quality

I see nothing good about Rare being absorbed into Activision, given how they treated Vicarious Visions and Toys for Bob.

I love my job. Getting to chat with @playtonicgames.com's Chris Sutherland about his @rare.co.uk debut (and one of the first Game Boy titles I fell in love with) was a real joy. Please give it a read 🙇 ✌️

Here you go! Our first piece of evidence that this actually took place (note: Uniracers & Red's Dream are not mentioned here). Interestingly, one part of the story has already been disproven; it wasn't a "moron" judge agreeing with Pixar. Pixar and Nintendo of America settled between themselves.

A case docket for Pixar v. Nintendo of America filed in 05/31/1995, and terminated on 10/17/1995

A list of actions related to the court case, which are unfortunately not digitised because of their age.

I find it really funny seeing people freak out over the idea of Sonic having a relatively small team dedicated to content for younger children because when Mario did it, everybody was sunshine and rainbows and waiting for the first frame Hello, Mario! was available on the eShop.

With games media imploding atm, I've been trying my best to get as many original features/news items on Time Extension as possible (reaching out to cool people/working with fantastic translators to contact Japanese devs). If you think that's something worth supporting, lend me your eyeballs!

I'm not totally sold on the art design in the new Ocarina of Time but there's some truth to this. The lack of vocabulary people seem to have for describing its style is a shame. I think we should generally refrain from insulting any human made art design as "AI" especially.

Been doing a lot more reflecting since the Tomodachi Life video was what it was and I'm remembering how much I really wanted to work in proper video game journalism. I love talking about whatever's in my cabinet from last century too, but it's so thrilling and fun to race current events.

Happy to finally have everything settled with the GB video. So happy it can finally see the light of day! I've got something else that's a wee bit small in the works for next weekend, and then I'll be focusing on a biiiig project about a very specific Sega subsidiary.

Congratulations to my first video to hit the six digits. I'm honestly feeling bittersweet that something I made in a day to fill time was the one to do it while everything else was left hovering around 1000 views at most. I'm very much reflecting on what I should do in terms of YouTube...

Very happy to say the GB video is FINALLY DONE!! (Besides a couple of slideshow photos that I'll grab real quick tomorrow but ssshhh) Would be very appreciative if anybody is willing to be an early onlooker to let me know if it's actually a good video or not! It's been awhile, I'm nervous init?

It's a bit late, but the GB Camera video will be finished tomorrow. I have the rough edit down, I just need to add a few more sounds and smaller animations. This ended up being a much more exhaustive job than I expected. It's quite short, and visually a bit simple, but it was a pain to figure out.

I got all cozy in the front row with a GB Camera on hand and managed to get some surprisingly decent shots for a dimly lit stage room. The show was proper funny and entertaining, you should absolutely watch it online! Unlike me you get to see it in HD.
