George Morrow: "Venture capitalists don't know how to decide which companies are going to be successful. They don't have the slightest idea what the ingredients of a success are. The only thing they know is what worked the last time. They have a tendency to repeat. They'll work it to death."
George Morrow delivering a commentary on "Computer Chronicles."

I remain pretty bummed out by the state of decompilations, ports, FPGA cores etc these days. The rise of GenAI has really flooded the whole scene with garbage and kinda poisoned the whole concept. Good piece from @pandamonium.bsky.social on it www.segasaturnshiro.com/2026/09/24/c...

I'm all for videogame preservation man, but an invasion of buggy vibe-coded decompilations is not a good thing. They misrepresent what the game is actually like, and for a lot of people that's the version they'll remember.

A 1987 arcade flyer for VS. Castlevania, a port of Konami's vampire busting adventure (minus the VS.) It came to North American arcades via Nintendo's VS. System which had also (quietly) introduced the Famicom to a new audience, testing the waters there since 1984 for an eventual NES rollout!
(arcade flyer sourced from The Arcade Flyer Archive: https://flyers.arcade-museum.com/videogames/show/2206)

-------------------------------------

ENTER ITS DARKNESS IF YOU DARE

Welcome to the shadows and hidden horrors of VS. Castlevania—the newest addition to Nintendo's VS. System. Its dark domain is home to some of the creepiest creatures you'll ever find among the living. . .or the dead. 

You'd better check your courage, because you're paying more than just a courtesy call. You're out to destroy forever the forces of evil that dwell here. And that means doing battle with the Master of the House, the Evil Count himself!

But. first, you'll have to find him. And that won't be easy. You've got to getthrough 18 terrifying stages including six castle tloors before you reach the tower where he waits, thirsty for your blood.

Your Magic Whip and stolen weapons will help you is dodge and destroy the ghosts, ghouls and monsters that stand in your way. But when you reach the tower. get ready to go for the jugular before the Count goes for yours!

VS. Castlevania—a deadly game of adventure and mystery that will add new life to your VS. System.

Using emulators is not "lazy" or "poor". For systems like the Jaguar CD it's often the only way to access them at all. But there is always some fuckwit gatekeeping "purist" out there. Well, take my advice: Fuck 'em. Life's too short to worry about that kind of bullshit.

Reviewing on an emulator is really poor and actually lazy.

Happy 40th anniversary, Castlevania! Konami's iconic, action packed nightmare kicked off an incredible run on this date in 1986. Japan's famous gaming weekly, Famitsu, celebrated its debut on the Famicom Disk System via a series of articles that followed in October to aid would-be vampire hunters!
This page describes the game, its many areas, and features a number of screenshots for Dracula's castle along with a few tips. It also celebrated the arrival of the game for the Famicom Disk System where it retailed for ¥2,980.A number of other stages are described on this page including a few words on describing the dangers ahead such as using Holy Water to deal with hunchbacks to taking care on crossing a crumbling, stone bridge. Watch out for those birds!This page belongs to the first of a series of more in-depth articles covering strategies on getting through the game in Famitsu's weekly magazine (also issued in October). This page describes the story of Simon Belmont's role in facing down Dracula who has awakened in 1876 after a century of sleep, his evil once more terrorizing the land from his 'demon castle'. A page from another series of articles later in October from Famitsu. This time, we're at the climax of the story! Dracula awaits and the page provides a few tips on how to fight him along with screenshots of the path to his dreaded lair.

AI has not made us better, more productive, more successful or grown the economy outside of GPU sales and data center construction. It has also made the price of every single device of every kind more expensive, depressed the housing market, and increased literally everybody’s cost of debt.

Just adding on to this since the settings are slightly different on desktop discord, with a dropdown list (with only one option lol) instead of a toggle.

The phrase “continuing our reset” strains the metaphor, the whole point of a reset is you press a button and it happens. But Microsoft may be thinking about it like Windows 11 where you have to install a bunch of shitty updates and it restarts like 3 times.

this response is so funny "we have to use ai because our developers are spread so thin it'd be impossible to do it all by hand" okay hear me out maybe instead just don't make 9 pc ports at once??? you could just make one so you're not spread so thin
“One of the reasons I think we are accepting of AI contributions is that our developers are spread thin,” said Jeod in the group’s Discord server. “When Ship of Harkinian began, it was apparently a dream; now, with so many ports and a decade later, devs have come and gone; some don’t have interest in specific games, others have real life to deal with. We always welcome talent, and if you’re willing to learn how things work here, then the door is open.”
