i hope we get a China-developed game featuring a US exclusive cowboy outfit in response to what Remedy is doing with Control Resonant.
testing the Gumby dressup floppy disk @lgr-yt.bsky.social recently dumped on ScummVM Wii (which theoretically supports anything using Macromedia Director) it works well despite the slowdown on the logo screens, certainly far better than any Adventure Game Studio title on weaker hardware.
Conker literally has multiple jank segments worse than Donkey Kong 64, except you're FORCED to do all of it to progress. genuinely Rare's worst game. meanwhile you only need half of DK64's collectables to complete it, even less if you use the debug cheat. tcrf.net/Donkey_Kong_...

this logo for Tales of Legendia (included with a 2005 Namco press CD) contains a layer featuring Japanese notes on how it should be utilized.
Zero Racers has a "SLEEP" option in Grand Prix mode that displays this Earthbound-esque message. (there also seems to be text for a Sound Test in the ROM, though i haven't confirmed if it's accessible normally or not.)
Kamaitachi no Yoru is simply one of the most important Japanese games in history, period. In the historical trajectory of novel games, if Otogirisou, Chunsoft's previous gane, is Pac-Land, this is Super Mario Brothers. It is that foundational in the storytelling and design paradigms it codified.
1564 Studio@1564studio.bsky.social · last wk.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.
this bizarre track included on a SEGA Multimedia Studio CD (originally intended to be used in the SEGA CD Jurassic Park game) is made out of pure raw MIDI.
the juxtaposition between the unofficial fan-made Undertale achievement set (there's over 195!) and the one Toby was mandated to include in the PS4/Vita ports is really something.
incredibly funny that Konami decided to localize this over the Goemon collection or Tokimeki Memorial. i'd assume IF they ever do anything with the latter, it will be the Girl's Side spinoffs rather than the original. since this is targeting the Otome crowd.

the 3DO booth at the Winter 1995 CES featured a (untranslated) demo for Konami's Policenauts. containing a sound test and a target practice mini-game this is peculiar, as while a localization was briefly considered. it was solely being planned for the SEGA Saturn. #E3Collections

for over 17 years, it was claimed Wario Land: Shake It! had an unused track called "Plumber's Cave" in actuality. it was a random Newgrounds song that was mislabeled. with both game composer Tomoya Tomita and remix creator PrototypeRaptor being unaware of the myth www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen...

big fan of this Japanese ESWAT: City Under Siege ad, which is SO low budget they could only recreate the legs of the titular cybernetic armor. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hX-0...
this incredibly obscure PC physical release of Yooka-Laylee & The Impossible Lair was exclusive to Poland of all places. unlike the original game, which had a limited set of copies made by @playtonicgames.com as Kickstarter rewards. the retail console versions of both titles had no such limitations
