1/ Oriental Pearl made a video in 2022 calling out the "language gurus" of YouTube. She and her guest make good points I listed here. She also emphasizes multiple times the exploitative nature of making money from a "position of power" (being a big YouTuber) with false claims.

In 2005, I wrote an article called "Inventing Akromiya" about how the government of Uzbekistan made up a group called Akromiya to justify a massacre of civilian protesters.
Twenty years later, the US is more like Uzbekistan, and I wrote "Inventing Antifa": sarahkendzior.substack.com/p/inventing-...

Inventing Antifa
In 2005, the Uzbek government invented a group called “Akromiya” to justify massacring protesters. Now I worry the US government will do the same.

You shouldn't preorder games. That was true more than 10 years ago and it's still true today.

The ending for Secret of the Four Winds also uses stolen assets: Last Blade - Moriya stage and Last Blade 2 - Graveyard stage.
The foreground trees are from Far East of Eden: Kabuki Klash (Hudson, 1995) and the cityscape from a random gif from at least 2017.

More stolen assets by Kay Magazine for their game Metal Dragon:
Kai Magazine did this since starting as a hobbyist on the MSX scene decades ago. Here’s another one I found. Also, on @goatistream.bsky.social stream for their latest game, chat found the ending traced backgrounds from Last Blade 1 & 2.

Apparently, this developer has a history of lifting existing assets. Here are some examples from his previous game:
This is why you cannot trust YouTubers and publishers in the retrogaming space. This 2025 megadrive game presented as "better than most snes game" has assets traced over existing sprites (Wild Guns and Shinobi III) and AI-generated backgrounds. Garbage game, garbage company, garbage shill youtuber.

The Super Famicom game Itadaki Street 2 has a mini-game of Bingo. Looking at the RNG code, I found a flaw in the draw algorithm. One of these four bingo cards is significantly better and one is significantly worse than the others. Can you guess which ones and why?
