Fields of Mistria is launching fully into 1.0 tomorrow!!! I'm so proud of the team for not only making a game happen (impossible task) but also making it one of the best games ever (great news for me AND you!!)

I regret to inform you that the Kacho will be pontificating this month on a Game Center CX livestream whether or not it is time to expand the scope of retro gaming to include the PlayStation…3. And Nintendo Wii.

After the whole GDQ SNK thing yesterday, I had that weird moment where I had to step back and remind myself that "Real world dictator is trying to use Art of Fighting 3 to become god king emperor of ESports" is a fucking insane thing to actually be real.

I did not realize that my phone storage was taken up by hundreds of saved tiktoks and reels from between 2020 and 2024 so I’m just gonna post them in this thread periodically starting with my favorite

genuine question for people who played fighting games in the arcade era: how did you learn the inputs for special moves before in-game command lists were a thing?

Every game - EVERY. GAME. And i will say this for people that do not listen - EVERY-SINGLE-GAME Level-5 has announced has GenAI. They have said. They have shown it off proudly. They have actually made VIDEOS saying it. They did a SPEECH about it. Do not support level-5 ever again. They are dead.

If you've got even an ounce of a soul in your body, you don't touch anything by ModRetro. It's too intrinsically linked to Palmer Luckey and his cohorts. I know the vast majority of you haven't and won't, but it's always worth a fresh reminder.

The chintzy-looking M64 clone console of the N64 by a company named ModRetro has been released, I think, I don't pay attention that closely to shit. But as the great @frankcifaldi.bsky.social posted before, it is our civic duty to push back against this company and shun ANYONE who doesn't.

I think folks also underestimate just how culturally sheltered or silo'ed people were before the internet blew up. People who hated anime had of course barely seen any and were just going on sensationalized second-hand impressions. This fell away when more anime slowly got easier and easier to see.

Genuinely impossible to make people understand how much most the United States in the 90s hated and looked down on anime if they didn't live through it.

imagine being the chief engineer for an evil army in an arcade shoot em up and you're like "finally, after 10 years... my giant evil battleship is finally complete! my LIFE'S WORK!! VICTORY WILL BE OURS!!!" and then one guy in some fuckass plane blows it up
