The ultra-wealthy keep trying to pit the rest of us against each other with scare tactics ("communists!" "men in the ladies room!!" "brown people!!!" "drag queens!!!!") to keep us from noticing that our real problem is THEM. They want us to fight *any* war—except a class war. Happy Labor Day.

Today’s #randomgamesaturday is my newly arrived Last Resort for the NeoGeo. It’s my favorite shooter on the system and I finally found one at a “good” price. That Akira-stolen skyline of the first stage… wow. This game is such a looker.

Went into my Mega Drive box for this #RandomGameSaturday and pulled out... this bootleg version of Water Margin: A Tale of Clouds and Wind (bought years before the later official releases)

A photo showing a very simple printed paper "case" and a bootleg Mega Drive cart. Both have "Shui Hu Feng Yun Zhuan", the untranslated name of the game. printed on their covers.

One day Lord Shiva was sitting in Kailash and saw the Goddess Parvati dressing up really fancy in a sari and jewels, ready to go out. "Where are you going, beloved of my heart?" Parvati turned to him. "Who are you, lord?" "Why, I am Shiva the essence of creation."

Today’s #randomgamesaturday is the original Street Fighter on its only port back in the day for the PC Engine CD. It’s an awful game. Horrible control and little fun to be had, but we got very good sequels a few years later. It wouldn’t happen without the OG.

Today's Random Game Saturday is Blue's Journey for the Neo Geo AES! (Raguy if your AES is in Japan region) A fun little side scroller with an amazing game over screen

🍿 O catálogo estreia com 555 produções nacionais, reunindo raridades desde 1910. Tem classicão como Cidade de Deus e Central do Brasil, além de títulos que brilharam no exterior. O sistema foi feito por universidades públicas, roda na nuvem do Serpro e é livre de comerciais e anúncios.

Captura de tela de uma seção temática da plataforma de streaming Tela Brasil dedicada ao Oscar. O fundo é preto e decorado com os contornos estilizados, em linhas finas verdes e amarelas, das estatuetas do Oscar. Na metade superior esquerda, o título "Oscar" está escrito em letras amarelas e, logo abaixo, há o texto explicativo em letras brancas: "Curadoria com produções e coproduções brasileiras de excelência que marcaram presença no Oscar desde 1960. Reúne indicados e pré-selecionados em diversas categorias, celebrando o impacto internacional do nosso audiovisual.". Na metade inferior, há uma fileira horizontal com cinco cartões em miniatura de filmes nacionais com cantos arredondados e detalhes em formas geométricas azuis e amarelas nas bordas. Da esquerda para a direita, os cartões trazem imagens das respectivas produções com seus títulos logo abaixo em letras maiúsculas brancas: "ORFEU NEGRO", exibindo uma cena em preto e branco com um homem segurando uma pessoa nos braços cercado por crianças; "A HORA DA ESTRELA", mostrando uma mulher jovem de vestido estampado em meio a folhagens; "CARANDIRU", com um homem de óculos cercado por policiais armados e de capacete; "O QUE É ISSO, COMPANHEIRO?", destacando o rosto em plano médio de uma mulher de cabelos curtos com expressão séria; e "PRA QUEM FICA, TCHAU", apresentando a foto em preto e branco de um homem jovem com um cigarro na boca.

There are loads of games I’ve finished more than six times. Maybe it would be a harder challenge it if was sixty times. I’ve chosen Hook for the SNES because it’s kind of a comfort game for me. I think it’s immensely pretty, plays very well and is short and easy.

Name a game you've completed more than six times. Also a game I've finished in three separate languages (English, French, and Japanese). I've played most of it in Korean too, but I didn't finish that run.

For this #randomgamesaturday here’s my boxed copy of the Brazilian version of Streets of Rage 3, autographed by Yuzo Koshiro at last year’s RetroCon. I’d much rather play the Japanese version, but now it’s a great collectible and I’ll never sell it.

Ok, #RandomGameSaturday time! I ran a finger down a pile of Saturn games this morning and pulled out… adver-demo Virtua Fighter Kids: Java Tea Edition!

A photo showing the case for Virtua Fighter Kids: Java Tea Edition (Saturn) held up to the camera. Low polygon versions of the game’s cast look ready to fight in a tropical location.

Today’s #RandomGameSaturday is The King of Fighters ‘96 for the NeoGeo AES, which just had a week thanks the the news. This entry will always be my favorite thanks to being the one I played the most in the arcades back then. I know it’s totally unbalanced but I won’t use this against it.

Today's Random Game Saturday is a famous one-- Hayazashi Nidan Morita Shougi 2! Why is it so famous? The ST018 chip that runs the shogi logic is actually a full ARM CPU with its own 21MHz oscillator, far more powerful than the S-CPU itself I'm not good enough at Shogi to tell if it helps, though
