A portion of Shigeru Miyamoto's deposition in the Universal vs. Nintendo court case where he confirms that Popeye wasn't made into an arcade game for technical reasons and not due to the myth that Nintendo didn't have the license. Hopefully, this myth can finally die. Thanks to Norm Caruso.

The "Pro Fighter X" series of SNES copiers has kinda stupid disk handling code: it doesn't filter out FAT entries on floppy disk that should never be displayed, like the Volume name ("CHRIS"), directories, and long filename chunks. This causes errors during display & loading. So I RE'd and fixed it.

"Pro Fighter X" SNES copierIt's displaying the volume name first, "CHRIS" then overlaying invalid entries into the file list. Also tries to load invisible files...My disk fix code. Done through a bit of searching and trial-and-error, since these BIOSes don't run on emulators, and no SNES emu emulates floppies anyway...Pro Fighter X file display fixed up!  Also with a new tilde glyph added into the font, as well as a new custom SFC background

Gaming Alexandria is our load-bearing pillar for access to Japanese scans and hubz is the hardest-working guy I know in game preservation, so I'd really appreciate it if we didn't destroy him with a dogpile over his vibe coding project please. Show some empathy and grace if you disagree with it.

It's a been a long time coming... MEGADEV, a development kit for the Sega Mega CD, version 1.0 is released! ──────────────────── 🔗https://github.com/drojaazu/megadev ────────────────────

That reminds me, have you ever seen this SNK token? I picked it up last year on YJP. Weird logo and IDK what Concorde is. Same design on both sides. May be totally unrelated to arcade SNK 🤷‍♂️
