dude I went down this same rabbit hole a few months ago. Good information is too hard to find. I got so unnecessarily frustrated. 😅 There are dozens of us. 💛

I thought it was fun to put the hack schedule in roughly "chronological" order 🤓

BB_Austin @tvbb.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

Randomizer Seeds and settings: (every Tuesday) 10/6 - 5-Dungeon Standard (my cozy settings) 10/13 - Triforce Quest (find pieces instead of beating Ganon) 10/20 - Fullsanity Max Rando (anything can be anywhere) 10/27 - friend-made Plandomizer (curated seed made by an expert)

Master of Time sends Link to a new region after saving Hyrule and Termina and growing up... "naturally" this time. An extremely seasoned, experienced, but also traumatized Link has to see if he can still be the hero. 10/22 & 10/23 www.romhacking.net/hacks/5801/

BB_Austin @tvbb.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

This fangame appears to focus on challenging gameplay over world-building and storytelling, but still has all of it. Tons of new items, characters, enemies, and areas. I hope my skills and logic are up for this one! 😅 10/15 & 10/16 www.romhacking.net/hacks/8640/

BB_Austin @tvbb.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

This RomHack follows Link between OoT and MM as he searches for Navi--very cool story inspiration! Obviously this one is inspired by Ocarina and Majora, but it seems to take some cues from Twilight Princess as well. 10/8 & 10/9 www.romhacking.net/hacks/5334/

BB_Austin @tvbb.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

The original RomHack! This is vanilla OoT, except the dungeons are redesigned to be a bit more challenging and cohesive. This is the 'Ura Zelda' you often hear about cancelled for the N64DD. I haven't played this since 2011 and I'm excited to re-experience it--on N64 this time! 10/1 & 10/2

BB_Austin @tvbb.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

I'll be doing an entire month of randomizers, romhacks, and fangames all played on an N64 and CRT thanks to an Everdrive X7. I'm putting information below about each of the OoT-engine games I'll be playing:

Whoa! That's wild, I'm glad the solution was found! This might be a common issue then ... interesting

I have consumed infinitely more s'mores during summer months, even growing up in a hot state. 🤷‍♂️ Especially September where you're kinda cusping between summer and fall. But I ain't gonna turn down a s'more any time of the year.

BB_Austin @tvbb.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

I'll be kicking off the month on 10/1 and 10/2 with the original OoT romhack: Master Quest! It's possible to play it on N64 hardware now, too which I'm every excited about. This will be only my 2nd time playing MQ and the first was way back in 2011. Full monthly schedule forthcoming.

BB_Austin @tvbb.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

I've been planning this for a few months, but today seems like the perfect day to announce it... All of my streams during the months of October will be Ocarina of Time-themed. Introducing OoTober! Randomizer seeds each Tuesday, and Romhacks and Fangames on Thursdays and Fridays. #OcarinaofTime

I have run into an issue where I have to press Start REALLY hard on a SNES pad for it to register. Sometimes an issue with GBA player games, too (I use a SNES pad). Have you tested your start button in other games? This is my only idea.

BB_Austin @tvbb.bsky.social · 21/08/2026

working on a Final Fantasy album and this line has been kicking my butt for a few days. Not quite The Take™ but so much fun to play.

So thrilled that they kept this in the remake! What an excellent moment. I'm loving the Star Fox remake. youtube.com/shorts/n8l-I...

I was perfectly okay with just having the Lunar remaster but I couldn't pass this one up. Blue Dragon is a great game. I played it last year and it made me feel good--excited to see you play it! Despite the confusing name "Plus" is a sequel and not a port. 🤓

010

BB_Austin @tvbb.bsky.social · 12/08/2026

- Odama was *not* on the list 😅 but the vendor was really nice and gave me an absurdly low price. It's also in brand new condition. - I already owned Pac-Man World 2, but my old disc was trashed and wouldn't go past a certain cutscene - I'm on a PS2 star wars kick! Still need BF1, and Ep. 3

010

BB_Austin @tvbb.bsky.social · 12/08/2026

- Wasn't planning to buy Lunar, but it's in unbelievable condition and I couldn't pass up the price. The discs are literally unplayed and it's fully complete. - Can't believe I found Blue Dragon Plus in the wild! Probably the most exciting find of the trip.

BB_Austin @tvbb.bsky.social · 12/08/2026

This is probably the biggest haul I've ever had from one trip! Details in the thread! 👇

Had so much fun playing with my bandmates and best friends in the world last night. ❤️ #vgm #supersmashband Bit Brigade was fantastic as always and we are so thankful to have been asked back to open. This was even better than last time!

You probably wouldn't be able to get them in time if the show is soon, but I'm a staunch proponent of custom ear molds. Better noise cancellation, clearer sound, and more secure fit. My first pair lasted me 12 years and the only reason I had to get a new pair is because your ear holes grow.

4. Smash Bros. Melee · 7/17 - NCA Charity event day 2! I'm going to try my best to rematch with my weakest Smash game and make it through all of the single-player modes! Donation incentives for upping the difficulty, and switching characters on the fly.
