In order to ensure that you are sufficiently hyped about my @retrogamingexpo.bsky.social presentation about bad NES games tomorrow, here is the presentation I gave last year in which I celebrated the NES's 40th anniversary by talking about all of its competitors youtu.be/XabGS917ing

Likewise, and I actively kept an eye open for games that aped the shaky, low-poly of PS1

My first presentation of the PRGE weekend (read: interjecting dumb jokes into the Retronauts 20th anniversary talk that Bob has assembled) starts in 25 minutes! If you are in Portland, you should come! Even if you don’t like video games! Or us!

Hard to believe that people like Trump would be so enthusiastic about tech that doesn’t respect consent

We are exploring the possibility of swapping slots so that tomorrow’s Retronauts panel at @retrogamingexpo.bsky.social and my NES Works panel on Sunday trade places. Who knows how it will shake out! The only way to be sure is to attend BOTH presentations

I should be paid a dollar every time an app or website pesters me to let it cram some superfluous A.I. feature down my throat, and five dollars if I've previously dismissed that nag prompt

Haven’t tried it, but it was listed as new old stock, so maybe?

Some last-minute inclusions here! I almost overlooked the fact that Japan’s Sports Pad shipped with a soccer game hidden inside. (Or a hockey game, but there is 0% chance I’m going to be able to track that one down since it was a prize giveaway and only 1000 copies were distributed)

Between retro game shopping in Tokyo, bargain hunting on proxy sites, and an assist from @lostturntable.bsky.social, I now have all the Mark III titles I needed to photograph for SMS Works Vol. 1 and 2

This week I put my money where my mouth is and created a video about Super Xevious for Famicom. You know how Xevious is a profoundly influential and deeply beloved part of the Famicom's history? This official Namco-commissioned sequel is, like, the opposite: youtu.be/-zjMjtTJti8

It's bleak out there! A "small car" on the American road now amounts to a crossover with ONLY six seats

I just wanted a very small car with good fuel efficiency, low maintenance costs, and decent power! I hate driving anything bigger than a subcompact!

An elderly man cruising down the street on his Rascal saw me getting out of my car tonight and ZOOMED over to talk to me. He saw I was driving a Mazda MX-5 and wanted to gush about how much he loved his RX-7 in the ’80s. I feel bad that I'm not a Car Guy, but it was charming. This neighborhood rules

I think it's beautiful that Sega has chosen to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Retronauts by repeating the same amateur mistake that almost killed the podcast (engaging in real time with the entirety of the Sonic fanbase). This official Discord is 100% the 2026 version of the Sonic call-in episode

Oh, I forgot that this was a @mikejmika.bsky.social joint! It was a great little surprise for GBA. Totally an off-the-wall take on the movie, but it worked

Unfortunately my packed schedule means it’s unlikely I will venture more than a few blocks from the convention center! I would like to go back up there sometime and just enjoy the city.

NBA 2K12 was released 15 years ago today. Retronauts is 20 years old today. The equivalent of NBA 2K12 for episode 1 of Retronauts would have been Mario the Juggler, Nintendo's final Game & Watch title, which debuted in October 1991. I have no point here. It's just an interesting observation

today marks a whopper of an anniversary as we released the very first episode of Retronauts on October 4, 2006. Twenty years of podcasts! Thank you for listening for two entire decades. What's your favorite episode or Retronauts memory?

I think this might be the year that everything lines up! I'm not talking about the same topic as Pat Contri in the same time slot as Pat Contri, and hopefully nothing catches on fire!

In exactly one week from RIGHT NOW, you should be at my PRGE panel hearing me wax eloquent about the inherent beauty and value of "bad" NES games—a timely complement to my ongoing forays into the Color Dreams catalog bsky.app/profile/retr...

Adventures is fine and feels like a pretty good interpretation of the original—certainly more so than Sword of Mana did on GBA. Just avoid the 3D remake of Secret of Mana, which is an exercise in suffering

Working at a pizza place, a stack of hot pans fell on me and burned a 4-inch patch of skin off my arm. Had to go next door to the pharmacy to buy ointment and bandage wraps, covered in grease, the wound a furious red. “Rough day at work?” the clerk asked. That kind of douchebaggery sticks with you
