In a surprise turn of events, Rockman Poker was preserved by Penguinstrain! This originated from GoodTofuFriday's dump of Midori's keitai, the same dump that had copies of Rockman.EXE PoN/LoN and Rockman DASH 5 Islands. Nearly three years ago, we overlooked this Flash file.

An apple a day keeps the adventurer away from consuming dubious dungeon food. (My ceiling light was visible on the previous upload, and wanted to dig out the Mavica to take a snap of it!) 📺: MSX Fan disk 2 ,1991

A crt photo of anime pixel artwork of a female adventurer in green 80s big pauldron-ey armour sitting with her back to a white wall. She's holding a bitten into a green apple. A sword in a green sheath rests against it, and MSX Fan's small fantasy rodent bunny hybrid creature sits on a rock enthusiastically nomming an apple

For something a little different here's a restoration of a Technopolis poster featured in April's 1992 issue. The character is Sill Plain from the Rance RPG series composited onto a real picture. Two versions: clean and with text/logo. No clue on the artist, any info let me know.

Golfshrine is morally obligated to remind you all: the current majority owner of "Fighting Golf" is Saudi crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman's Public Investment Fund. Therefore, Golfshrine implores you not to buy the recent ACA release. The NES and Famicom versions go for cheap. Get them instead.

Hightailing it into a New Dimension in 1996: Bubsy 3D. Despite its reputation, Bubsy 3D is not *that* terrible a game, and there are far worse platformers from the time. And it had the misfortune of coming out shortly after the release of Mario 64 in North America and lateish-1997 in Europe.

A magazine ad for Bubsy 3D, with a render of the grinning and winking pantsless bobcat surrounded by cartoonish animals, gameplay screenshots above him and quite a bit of praise from mags of the time.

Pixel art of Garamaudo bauciensis, a freshwater mosasaur species from France, with an elongated reptilian body, wide tail and short limbs. Two are in freshwater, with rocks and plants around them, roots poking down from above, and light creating patterns over the sediment. One is facing towards the surface, mouth open, and the other is twisted, moving lower in the water.

Wipeout 2097/XL is my nostalgic fave, but for PS1-era Wipeout? Wipeout 3 really does it for me these days. Especially in SE form.

A crt tv screen photo of Wipeout 3 with a Feisar anti-grav racer seen from an oblique angle from behind with engine trail and flare burning bright. A city skyline, all done in polys can be seen beneath a blue sky.

Racing alongside a huge container ship and about to pass under a anime-sque popart LCD board.
