I still think it’s weird, even all these years later, that the timeline moves up, except for replies and threads, which go down. It still feels inelegant.
Super Mario Land Advance is coming along pretty nicely, and I'm having a lot of fun designing and tweaking all the little details. I hope I can share more soon! In the meantime, here's the tentative intro screen
We need to start investigating who invested big in Listeria. Follow the money.
I’m so tired, guys. www.yahoo.com/news/us/arti...
Ah boy. I’m just so tired of all these Star Wars.
what is this, some kind of a dino crisis!? 🦖
Last night I had an extremely detailed dream that was a combination of Jurassic Park and The Terminator. John Hammond was the one who inadvertently invented SkyNet. Tim was sent back to warn him and Hammond did listen but it created parallel futures. And then I woke up.

I’ve shared this image before but it’s still important to point out. This is what “retro” games cost on eBay when I was in high school in the early 2000s. I have since sold a lot of these off but still have a few. Almost all of these sell for crazy money now.
I got into retro video games in high school and college because it was cheap. I was broke as hell but I was still able to pop into a thrift store or pawn shop and get NES and SNES games for $5. Same with DVDs. The deals I turned down because they weren't cheap enough would make you sick
For the longest time I, like countless others, assumed the ROBOCOP 1 poster was a photo. It’s such a good painting.
Wrapping things up, here are some clean versions of the poster art for RoboCop 1 and 2 that I 'restored' by combining different versions I found online, touching up, colour correcting etc.

I love to read about the big pizza wars but my favorite detail that is missing from this is that Reggie Fils-Aimé is the guy behind the Bigfoot
In 1993, the Pizza Hut Bigfoot Pizza left a big cheesy footprint on America's dinner table. It was two square feet of pizza at a bargain price. It is well-remembered by bargain pizza fans and blimp crash enthusiasts. Yes, this story has a blimp crash. www.retroist.com/p/pizza-hut-...
@midimyers.com my wife is loving The Other Bennet Sister. Thanks for shouting it out on the show!
Growing up there was a store near my grandparents’ house where we would rent Genesis games. I don’t know what it was called because I only knew it as “the 5 and 10”. I didn’t even know what that meant.

@pixelsandpolygons.net after backing the issues for q1, q2, and q3, I forgot to back q4. Can you remind me if there will be extras?
