That’s a real shame. Hope they get around to fixing up that issue soon. Seems weird that it only effects some games too.

Happy 30th to the PlayStation in North America. Sure we got it nearly a year earlier in Japan back then, but to this day, it's one of the most rad systems ever conceived. So here's some new artwork and merch to celebrate that!

Saki Endo's Rubbish Heap the retro game review channel with attitude. It's been 1 year since the channel started and nearly 30 reviews revealing interesting Japanese games to those who can't understand a word to those on their way to fluency. All done with AI - Awesome Individuals :) #retrogaming

We're so happy to be able to show our first Vectrex Mini prototypes 😁 #Gamescom2025 #Vectrex

I don’t need this. But I definitely want one of these if they eventually get released. I didn’t get the A500Mini.

NEW VIDEO: Action Fighter on the SMS, Speccy, CPC, C64, ST Amiga and PC. Is this obscure Japanese arcade game worth a look? Why did Firebird licence it during their dying days? Hmmmm.
