Two thumbs and a games console. Living room Arcade near completion. Modding Nintendo consoles to today’s standards 🙌

Went to grab a VGA monitor from my dad, came home with this!

Still works, but the m&k are no-shows 😬

Looking forward to seeing what you do with yours 👍👍

Picross is my cosy ‘I’ll just play a few puzzles whilst I choose what to play’ closely followed by three zeds.

VT is an excellent game!

Next up, Soul Calibur. (Whilst taking these pics I won the first challenge without touching the controller 😂)

Maxi used to be my favourite fighter. He’s a bit like Eddy I guess. Anyways, it plays like I remember fighting games in the arcade. In 1999/2000 that was magic!

I changed ports and found that port 4 worked! So I changed the date and things kicked off. I set the console to auto start discs when inserted and we were off! First up: Virtua Tennis 🎾

Well things started a little…off. None of the controllers worked to bring with. I put batteries one of the VMUs and that spring to life. Games wouldn’t load ☹️ Not a good start.

In the Verso Drafts there’s a Gestral who challenges you to reposte 3 times in a row. It’s basically this. Made me laugh so hard.

Looks like the rear end of a supercar!

It’s extremely rare that I reach the final area of a Metroid game with 💯 items without help, but here we are.

I liked parts of this game, but it’s definitely a disappointment.

I much preferred Dread tbh.

I haven’t, no. Thank you for pointing me toward it!

Absolute banger and amazing OST

I can pinpoint the first time I cried playing a video game.

This.

Wood that they could. They Pine for youth long lost.

Any art program I use I set the auto save to 5mins, and multiple saves at that.

PS doesn’t have the brushes I like so I use Clip Studio and haven’t looked back.

Christ, if the US could be split into two halves to live peacefully they’d still invade the other half.

For those with unprocessed trauma music is an easy therapy.

May I ask for a few recommendations?

Most top songs in pop are written by the same people.

Taylor Swift has been dominating the charts for years.

Streaming services gave us access to an entire history of music.

Trauma, loneliness in a digital world, wanting to relate: music therapy.

The world is already full of silly love songs.

I think I missed a scan on the projectiles from the first boss. I’m hoping I get to revisit that boss 😬😬😬

I am convinced every decision in the world under the right wing banner is driven by trauma manipulation.

PTSD from war, othering, famine, benefit erosion, healthcare denial, everything.

There’s very little kindness, SO much misinformation and lying. Trust is a mythical creature.
