Reading to my kids has been my favorite part of my day. I've loved it so much that I've extended it to reading chapter books to my wife on occasion. I don't want it to end, man.

In light of what I posted earlier, I want to encourage others to share retro translations and homebrew that do not use the slop machines. Saturn translations I recommend: Silhouette Mirage Grandia Sakura Wars 1 and 2 Linkle Liver Story Mobile Suit Gundam Bulk Slash The various Shining Force games

The number of times I've been called a gatekeeper or a snob lately for this kind of thing. Uff

Today, I decided to dump all my thoughts about A.I. infecting the retro and Saturn scene into one cohesive article. In short, I am certifiably sick of this.

I think your comparison to Ecce Homo is correct. If we do not have respect for what came before, how do we move forward?

Nate Ehlers @supernatetendo.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, Nick. We're feeling this in the NES homebrew community and are not quite sure the next steps. All I know is that it is the antithesis of why I'm into retro games/gaming.

Someone at Nintendo saw the Doom 2016 trailer and said "we should make our space marine do that"

Getting damaged by a cultist that happens to tepelort under your feet feels awful every time... so I fixed it. Now the two of you swap positions! This can cover quite some distance, and is delightfully chaotic. #gamedev #nes #indie

I've been working on the title screen for our game lately just for fun. In order to not look like an ordinary #nes game, the idea here is to simulate two background layers where one layer is scrolling. I think it turned out pretty decent. Still WIP with the logo etc. #nesdev #gamedev #indiedev

Is this the official explanation for Neckbone, then? ;)

There is a good reason why Ness's father continually asks him to take breaks from playing video games. Earthbound still continues to be the best for the reason of knowing who and what its purpose is for.

Yo, can anyone help a guy out - a long time ago @anamanaguchi.bsky.social put out a summer mixtape which featured some songs - I know Shirobon was on it and a remix of Triangle. Would love to hear it again.

@mteegfx.com was kind enough to show me a few WIPs of his work and I gotta say this is one of the coolest things. It's been a personal goal of mine to get him to draw something for a project of mine, and this is close enough! Love this concept and can't wait to see all the others.

I'm so thankful to have collaborators and people in the community that are interested in this project. Please give the Good Sean Robinson some love and follow his podcast.

Nick is doing something special with these. You will relearn what you thought was true about various pieces of video game history. I cannot recommend this and any of his other documentary pieces more highly. Please please please take the time to watch and support him.

I have no idea what these are, but they look beautiful. Will check them out ASAP.
