still funny how metroid prime kinda exist in the same frame of “nobody gives a shit about the canon/timeline” as the zelda timeline but it’s more like, it’s really obvious the 2D games are functionally the only real canon but sakamoto isn’t allowed to say otherwise lol

wow this sucks, it’s a good thing emulation is an extremely vibrant scene where there isn’t often functionally only 1 or 2 viable emus per system beyond old & inaccurate or WIPs that aren’t ready for mass ussssss- oh fuck

thinkin of whatever’s goin on in metroid fusion & how other m touches on shit from it and ngl i wonder how much of the latter and dread was just sakamoto exploring plot points & concepts he had been thinking of which prolly would’ve been a thing in an N64 metroid or his own gamecube game tbh

admittedly really funny hearing about the original FDS version of metroid runs better than the NES conversion cus like it still runs like ass a lot of the time dog, game chugs if there’s more than like 4 sprites on screen

super mario bros 3 is real fuckin good tho ngl i forgot that i don’t really love the puzzle-focused levels it kinda leans on in the last two worlds that and like, without skips it feels like this is wayyyy too long of a game to not support saving tbh

Severe @wlfgrrl128.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

i think it’s funny how most ppl’s hang-up with og metroid is the lack of an in-game map when like really it just kinda plays like shit from a butt tbh

The best part of being an artist is that you can just draw whatever dumb idea comes to your head at 1am

A scene parodying the Neon Genesis Evangelion scene of Asuka and her Eva unit getting pierced by the spear of longinus. In this scene, Linguini and Remy from Pixar's Ratatouille take the place of the EVA unit and Asuka respectively. Linguinis eye is pierced by a fork version of the spear and Remy is depicted in an inset where he is grabbing his eye and screaming like the anime. There are anime subtitles at the bottom that say "AHHHHHHHHH!"

I’ve seen comments from the few LEVEL-5 glazers left from this tease they’ll have something huge, and they’re thinking it’s going to be Dark Cloud 3, Rouge Galaxy 2, or even White Knight Chronicles 3; but that LEVEL-5 kinda died years ago in the same way you wouldn’t see a new Banjo from Rare.

The message included with this proto dump is rad

Today, I’m releasing the SNES proof-of-concept alpha of Project Dream, the proto-type that would go on to become Banjo-Kazooie.

I’ve held on to this for years, it was fun to have something that only a handful of people had, and as I am several people removed from how it got out of Rare to begin with, I didn’t want to risk that it could somehow get someone else in trouble, (so how I got it is a story I don’t plan to share.) I will just say that I got it from someone who got it from someone, who got it from somewhere.

But with the current state of the industry and Microsoft's current heartless gutting and mismanagement of Rare and other companies it controls, plus with how long it's been, I feel it's more important to make sure this is properly preserved, and the ROM dissected by people with far more knowledge on how to do such things.

I hope by releasing this, that it also inspires other people to release what they have as well. I know the Twelve Tales Conker 64 prototype is out there somewhere, but sadly, this is the only thing that I have.

There is little joy left in the industry, as it relentlessly marches towards AI, layoffs, l anti-preservation and ownership tactics, and, in Microsoft’s case, the support and approval of literal genocide in Gaza.

Let’s get the last beautiful things hiding on our hard drives out there for everyone. That's all we have left.

gotta wonder if wind waker HD & TP HD still not being ported to switch 1/2 has anything to do with the wii u being a powerPC sys that has an souped-up iteration of the (very old) cpu used in the gamecube tbh imma guess there’s a lot of legacy/hardware-specific code there that’s a pain to port over

real interesting playing the N64 & saturn versions of quake back-to-back & getting how the concept of the console FPS emerged both cus that stuff (not to mention past ports of doom etc) show the genre was viable but also like, you gotta do something different cus these controls don’t fuckin work man

glad i waited until after pikmin 3 got switch 2 enhanced to really get into it lol, bit of a shame that it’s still 30 fps but it def looks a lot better

breath of the wild’s UI clearly being designed around the wii u gamepad’s touchscreen before they ripped all that shit out kinda sucks cus i can picture it prolly having real-time inventory management at one point and i think that would’ve made it just a little more interesting tbh

Devs today aren't brave enough to design enemy encounters like this anymore, they're too worried with stuff like "being fair" and "the player needs to know what the fuck is going on"

Did you know? In Fire Emblem: Binding Blade, Bors was originally known as "Chinson", and was going to have an even larger chin. However, seeing a chin of such girth made the playtesters feel inferior, and as such, his chin was shrunk as to not humiliate or embarrass the player.

really funny how ppl’s biggest problem with the jason todd reveal in batman arkham knight tends to be that somebody at rocksteady lied about it despite it being super obvious and not like, how it’s just really fucking lame how a major plotpoint in the game is just regurgitating shit from the comics

playing thru the new war in warframe after i had fallen off for a while (and cus i read they got rid of the grindy requirement to build a necramech before you can start) def the first time one of these story quests has nailed the “bite-sized singeplayer campaign” feel even tho it’s like, kinda janky
