Frank Cifaldi @frankcifaldi.bsky.social · 23/09/2026I had never seen this Game Boy model that came on an action figure card backing, it makes me happy to look at. Man, remember consumer electronics? 281048226
Frank Cifaldi @frankcifaldi.bsky.social · 23/09/2026I don't know if this gets talked about too much, but we are starting to get a lot of archive requests that feel like LLM-generated research slop. The second one was a real bummer, I pulled the book and tried to help them, then got a second near-identical email a week later from a different address. 1017829
Frank Cifaldi @frankcifaldi.bsky.social · 17/09/2026I drank some water out of the gutter a week ago and now every time I look at the ground I see this 612110
Frank Cifaldi @frankcifaldi.bsky.social · 10/09/2026Park Place's "Roundball: 2 on 2 Challenge" for the NES actually started life as "Dream Team: 3 on 3 Challenge" with player likenesses, as seen in this CES photo. The art kinda sorta survives in the final if you overlay the character select portraits on the photo, though the players got Joe Hoops'd. 1416
Frank Cifaldi @frankcifaldi.bsky.social · 03/09/2026I've started saving "found photos" of humans with video games as they appear on eBay because, idk, someone's got to 1542450
Frank Cifaldi @frankcifaldi.bsky.social · 27/08/2026I texted this to a friend who replied "wasn't there an Edward Furlong album too?" Yes but that was Pony Canyon, they published an NES game about a magical upskirt school girl who flies around and shoots skeletons and godzillas 4728
Frank Cifaldi @frankcifaldi.bsky.social · 27/08/2026TIL that Meldac, the publisher of an NES game about a giant head that vomits on buildings, also published the debut album from actress Jennifer Love Hewitt 614222
Frank Cifaldi @frankcifaldi.bsky.social · 27/08/2026The most bizarre Comic-Con panel I went to was Larry King doing a live interview with Peter Cullen in 2012 with, as far as I can tell, zero prep or existing knowledge of his work, but Peter was a pro and handled it well. I took the worst photo ever, but I promise Peter's off screen on the right. 310810
Frank Cifaldi @frankcifaldi.bsky.social · 27/08/2026For my fellow NES weirdos: a long chain of detective work just resulted in these basically-never-seen screenshots of the unreleased Magic of Scheherazade II being unearthed. It looks like more of the same, but there ain't nothing wrong with that. From The Super Famicom issue 1, for future reference! 1328771
Frank Cifaldi @frankcifaldi.bsky.social · 26/08/2026Ah they switched their "everything is an Xbox" campaign to "everything is preservation." 512213
Frank Cifaldi @frankcifaldi.bsky.social · 25/08/2026Losing my mind at the "CRT filter" for this new release of Manic Miner that was just announced 2944487
Frank Cifaldi @frankcifaldi.bsky.social · 20/08/2026Continually fascinated by Parker Bros. making its dramatic return to video games in 1990 with a New Kids on the Block game that never got finished and Drac's Night Out, a game about Dracula wearing literal, ad-placement Reebok Pumps that he wears while going into people's homes to murder them. 1924866
Frank Cifaldi @frankcifaldi.bsky.social · 19/08/2026Yes, a very real human artist who knows what udders look like saw this pixel art and made the background fire teets point in directions that make no sense 1621031
Frank Cifaldi @frankcifaldi.bsky.social · 15/08/2026I saw this game playing on a TV in the mall and thought it was a TV broadcast at first. I am posting this so younger people can make fun of me the way I make fun of people in the old timey theater jumping out of the way when they saw a movie of a train coming at them 111589

Frank Cifaldi @frankcifaldi.bsky.social · 07/07/2026The VGHF Discord (patreon.com/gamehistoryorg) has a channel dedicated to documenting golf games and it has its own hyper-specific memes now 512813
Frank Cifaldi @frankcifaldi.bsky.social · 02/07/2026@decafjedi.com @lgr-yt.bsky.social Idk if either of you are interested in the very obscure Space Quest comic but Roger Wilco number 3 is in stock and that basically never happens (I've had an alert for years that I never turned off even after I got mine) www.mycomicshop.com/search?ItemI... 2314

Frank Cifaldi @frankcifaldi.bsky.social · 14/06/2026So much better than a Fan Duel commercial or whatever, look at this 2353
Frank Cifaldi @frankcifaldi.bsky.social · 14/06/2026For those who don't know, the NBA app streams don't do TV commercials and they show the goofy in-arena stuff instead. It is an extremely premium and relaxing experience that puts all other pro sports broadcasts to shame. 4663
Frank Cifaldi @frankcifaldi.bsky.social · 14/06/2026I'm sorry to everyone watching the finals on TV instead of pirating the app stream, while you're watching prescription ads I'm watching the Planet Fitness Hype Squad showing San Antonio how it's done 5954

Frank Cifaldi @frankcifaldi.bsky.social · 23/05/2026This is probably the only game where you get to play as Lucius Fox, and it's almost definitely the only game where you can make Lucius Fox eat pizza 2732

Frank Cifaldi @frankcifaldi.bsky.social · 23/05/2026Falcone's secret hideout is a ball pit that his henchmen decided to build instead of having health insurance. When I punched one of them his friend got really upset and said "Hey! This place is sacred!" 1442
