So yeah, with some cases I might nod and think that’s reasonable. But I will not share, comment or like your post, since the bad actors will see that as empowerement.

For those that are defending AI for somewhat reasonable use in their projects. Sorry, but I can‘t hear you over all the extreme noise from the horrible people that do.

I‘ve played the Japanese version, it’s a tough game with lots of flawed design. But its uniqueness still made me appreciate it.

Yet again, the Game UI Database is being scraped to the point that it's getting knocked offline. Even Cloudflare's "I'm under attack" mode isn't working. I just wanted to create a resource for real designers. I'm getting so fucking sick of this.

Yep, einer der besten JP GBA Importtitel IMO.

ChronoMoogle @chronomoogle.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

Highly recommended, it’s even better than the quite popular part 2 that had an official English release. Fun fact: it’s one of the very few GBA games that support controller rumble when being played on a GB Player.

So cool to see the access light on my Broadcast Satellaview on! 🤩 I'm playing the new BSX release of Mario 2 USA! It adds back the original broadcast music and character voices - with a new optional English dub! The badguys randomly change who you're playing as and the characters talk about it!

My Super Famicom with SF fash cart inserted, the power light and green access light on the attached Broadcast Satellaview are both lit up!

You can’t even comprehend how important Eien ni Hen’s work is to the fan translation community. Romancing SaGa, Fire Emblem, Sakura Wars, Tear Ring Saga, Glory of Heracles, Dragon Force II, Dark Half, Beyond Oasis, Psi-O-Blade, Arabian Nights, and so much more. What a loss. Rest in peace.

Her most famous contributions include: - For the Frog the Bell Tolls (GB) - Princess Tomato (FC) - Lodoss War (SFC) - Dark Half (SFC) - Romancing Saga 1 (SFC) - Sakura Taisen (SAT) - Dragon Force II (SAT) - Tear Ring Saga (PSX)

A legend in the fantranslation scene, may she rest in peace. I‘ve rarely been in direct contact with her, but we’ve been on the same romhacking project with Arabian Nights (SFC) under LostTemplars wing and I‘ve played countless of her fantastic translations. She leaves behind a rich legacy.

Kirby‘s Dream Course and its spiritual predecessor Special Tee Shot for SNES are often overlooked and pretty great!

ChronoMoogle @chronomoogle.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Absolutely! IIRC, one of the later Bubble Bobble arcade games went for this style too (wasn’t a SNES game though)

Trying out an aesthetic for Sliding Blaster 2 in which I use rilden.github.io/tiledpalette... to convert photos to get a look where you're playing with toys on top of a realistic surface, similar to LEGO Loco. Background uses 4-color tiles to save video RAM. #snesdev #gamedev #homebrew

Screenshot of a top-down action game running in a SNES emulator. There's a pink hovercraft looking toy in the middle of the screen, next to some colorful wooden blocks and ammo pickups on the ground. There's cookies and snowmen on snowboards nearby.

Screenshot of the same game, but the hovercraft toy is on some sand dunes. There's some blue swirls around the stage.

Screenshot of the same game, with the background as some sort of green glass-like surface. There's Poo-Chi and balloon and cookie enemies.

Same game, but background is a corn cob.

Updating this while I sit by the phone waiting to hear back from a recruiter to see if they have anything yet, still. I feel like I'm losing what's left of my mind in search of something very basic that no longer exists. I always hate asking, but invoices are coming in too slow and too small. Still.

Here's the first footage of the cancelled SNES/SFC port of Railroad Tycoon to ever be posted online, captured from my promotional tape made by the would-be Japanese publisher. For a long time, the only evidence of the game's existence was two blurry Nintendo Power screenshots!
