  1. Thoughts on the recent leak of upcoming Microsoft products. No disc drive in the next Xbox Series X? Ugh, no sale. http://kiblitzing.blogspot.com/2023/09/no-sleep-til-brooklin-and-ellewood.html

  2. Time for some Deep House:

    I bet you people would like this.

      As an added bonus, here's something from Dean Evans:

  3. Hats Off Entertainment on The New Addams Family:

    When I first saw the ads for this back in '98-'99, my first thoughts on this is, "This isn't going to be good."

    Upon seeing clips of this show in the video, I actually laughed at them. Kudos on Saban for getting John Astin from the '60s show back.

      Fun fact: Mr. Cassidy was also Brainiac in Super Friends.

  4. Unpopular and Controversial Opinions, Volume 10:

    -SNES Yoshi's Island > SMA3 Yoshi's Island, Yoshi's Island DS, and Yoshi's New Island. (I'm still kind of irked that Nintendo and Artoon never included the SNES original's button layout in the latter's options. The same goes for Super Princess Peach, Yoshi's Wooly World, Yoshi's Crafty World, Kirby Squeak Squad, Kirby Super Star Ultra, Kirby Triple Deluxe, Kirby Planet Robobot, Kirby's Blowout Blast, and the last two Mario Kart games.)

    -Sunsoft needs to re-release the original Clock Tower, along with SOS/Septentrion.

    -The best version of Earthworm Jim 2 is the Super NES version, closely followed by the Genesis/MD version.

    -Tri-Ace should have ported the first two Valkyrie Profile games to the 3DS.

    -Radiata Stories felt like it belonged on the GameCube or the Wii than the PS2.

    -Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow = What Metal Gear Solid 2 should have been.

    -1996-2001 was the Dark Age of American Music.

    -Speaking of the Super NES and Genesis, Sega and Nintendo should have found better games to end their respective systems on. (In all fairness, the Super Famicom got a director's cut of Metal Slater Glory; and the PAL Mega Drive ended with The Lost World: Jurassic Park.)

    -Trey Parker and Matt Stone should have ended South Park in 2007.

    -Hal Labs needs to do more than Kirby Sequels, and I'm glad that Part-Time UFO was made.

  5. Quick question: am I too much of a plans person than an actual developer? I feel like I'm all ideas and very little execution, which is kinda making me depressed tbh.

      I feel for you, I have the ideas, but am not skilled enough to bring them to life. @Tickled_Pink I think I have ADHD and Autism, something my neighbor said that I had.

  6. Today, I'm publicly admitting defeat in the Unity debate for now, but I feel it's still wrong of Unity to screw the pooch in terms of licensing. Long live indie devs.

  7. Unpopular and Controversial Opinions, Volume 18:

    -Treasure started to slip with Silhouette Mirage and Radiant Silvergun, but didn't go downhill until the release of Gunstar Super/Future Heroes.

    -I think the two N64 Castlevania games get too much shit. (Ditto for the Lords of Shadow subseries.)

    -The '93 Mario Movie wasn't terrible, or even remotely bad. (I can see why Nintendo, Bob Hoskins, and Dennis Hopper would hate it.)

    -Saints Row should have ended with Gat out of Hell.

    -Yoshi's Story is underrated. The real difficulty comes from eating all thirty (honeydew) melons.

    -I'm glad that DynamiTracer is getting an English patch.

    -Taito should have ported Operation Tiger and its update to the Wii.

    -Bethesda should consider making smaller games and give the Elder Scrolls series a rest.

    -King Star King reminds me of an early-'30s Van Beuren cartoon after ingesting peyote, and in a good way.

    -Am I the only person who likes Mr. Mxyzptlk? (IT'S MIX, YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES, SPIT, and LICK!)

     

  8. More of Wizard of Oz: Beyond the Yellow Brick Road AKA Riz-Zoawd:

    I'd like to see this on the Switch eShop, but with proper button controls and adjustable difficulty settings.

  9. F_T_B on the history of Data West:

    They just opened a new store that sells their old stuff outside of Rayxanber.

  10. Eagan Tilghman pays tribute to Pee-Wee's Playhouse:

    Maybe somebody here could team up with him if they are in need of pre-rendered graphics.

  11. For those who remember Cliff Johnson's The Fool's Errand:

    Too bad that his site only exists in the Internet Archive these days...

  12. Stan Lee with Todd McFarlane, Whilce Portacio, Jim Lee, and Rob Liefeld:

    By the way, I'm on Jim Lee's Discord server. As an added bonus, David Finch on Lines of Beauty:

     

  13. Ikaruga Clones:

    There are more clones of Treasure's shmup, but they were lost to time.

  14. Plok - Pokey Edition:

     

  15. I thought I would share these.

  16. "All systems green, See You Later!"

    As far as Sega CD and general Genesis/Mega Drive soundtracks are concerned, Meccano Associates and Game Arts masterfully combined FM Synth with samples.

  17. Playing with cursed dolls:

    Enjoy!

  18. For fans of The Golden Girls and Hanna-Barbera:

    I might as well say this, "But Fred!?:

  21. DJ legend Grandmaster Flash is going to appear on my radio mix special this Saturday! He also gave me

    a shoutout on his livestream tonight. It actually surprised me when he called me out by my DJ name(DJ Nurse). I was just listening to the song The Message too. About to play some Atari 5200 now to celebrate 💥💛

      Grandmaster Flash may be my favorite Rap artist of all time.
