Extremely proud to say I was the localization editing lead for Bubbly Basin, Pokopia's first DLC. Also even more proud of the ridiculously talented team of translators, editors, and fantastic loc folks who made it happen. I hope everyone has a bubbly time playing!

An insane video game-related Lost Media find has quietly popped up on YouTube. Two episodes of "Say Powww!", a 1979 game show about video games that only aired in some markets. People in studio and over the phone played Intellivision (!!) games. Predates Starcade!! www.youtube.com/watch?v=29tJ...

Baskin-Robbins Can’t Stop The Nuts (1980-1980): Coconut-almond ice cream, loaded with chocolate-covered almonds and candy-coated almonds, along with a milk chocolate ripple. Released to promote the Village People/Steve Guttenberg film, "Can't Stop the Music"

A bright red sign that reads "Can't Stop the Nuts" in black script, above an almond inside a coconut shell, disco dancing in platform shoes and bellbottoms. To the right is an image of the Village People, dressed in all-white versions of their classic costumes

I'm trembling while writing this: Kamaitachi no yoru—not the PC remake, not the iOS port, but the actual original SFC version—has been translated at last by ButThouMust, who graciously brought us an English patch for Otogirisou in the past. This is HISTORICAL.

chat they made something in real life that i swear to god would be a shitpost i could have come up with almost a decade ago and i need people to mail me packs immediately as little gifts. do you know how badly i need 1993 Daphne on a trading card with her lil choker and flower skirt

unfortunately for me it is a box of packs of frasier collectible trading cards, which exist in real life but unfortunately not in my gay little hands (yet)

I found the original sound source of the piano used for "To Zanarkand" from Final Fantasy X. The hardware version is the KORG Kronos German Grand preset. There's a VST version you can get called SGX-2. Here's the original MIDI data played through the VST (with a little adjustment for velocities).

In Paper Mario, Bowser claims that the Star Rod makes him invincible. However, in the first battle, it merely raises his Defense to a measly 1. If Mario is given just slightly better shoes, he can get through the protection. Bowser cannot handle taking over 10 damage, making the game crash.

is there a good discord bot that just posts when certain channels on twitch go live? there's streamcord but that limits you to 5. i don't want anything fancy, just "xxx went live: [link]"
