Tariffs might sting the Temus of the world, but they can definitely kill small special interest shops like this.

Still working on my order (funds are tight), but please all don't forget about loverly, small shops like @japanretrodirect.bsky.social !

Japan Retro Direct @japanretrodirect.bsky.social · 9d

OK Bluesky friends. Use the code “BSTariffRefund” on checkout to save 15%. Let me explain.

So, since the new shipping restrictions and tariffs went into effect my sales have fallen off a cliff. And in the last 2 weeks I have received only a single order. (1/5)

This is awesome, Ropoko is coming to the Switch (and Steam) on the 9th October. It will include the English translation which I helped the author with :) As for the MZ-700 English release, this should be around or just before Christmas time.

Everyone has a 1-2 season TV show they sorely miss and not enough people knew about that you are always praising the heavens about.

What's yours?

Und, was denkt Ihr so über das Spiel?
Sieht ja recht interessant aus, für Freund:innen des gepflegten Kartenspiels wie mich.

Neu um Blog: Grafikadventures auf dem SEGA Master System gibt es nicht? Falsch! Es gibt einige Spiele, die man sehr wohl in diese Kategorie einordnen kann. Darunter sogar ein äußerst prominenter Vertreter des Genres.

Reminder that 100,000 people marched for Trans Pride in London earlier this year, but because they weren't violent fascists, there was minimal press coverage, unlike the Nazis today.

London’s Trans Pride March Just Shattered Its Turnout Record

Organizers say it was the largest transgender rights march in the world.

Universal Arcade Facts @universalfacts.bsky.social · Mar 29

Gameplay footage of Get A Way, a game released in 1978 by Universal in Japan, and then a year later overseas.

Get A Way used the 16-bit Texas Instruments TMS9900 microprocessor for its CPU, making it the first arcade game to use a 16-bit processor, something its flyer proudly boasted about.

Anyway, prepare yourself by buying my book. It will help you to understand how much Innsmouth no Yakata rules

Alles gut danke Dir.
Du bist mit dem Wissen mir schon meilenweit voraus. 😀

Sven Schmalfuß @vedeksve.bsky.social · 25d

"mainly", sorry.

Sven Schmalfuß @vedeksve.bsky.social · 25d

I'm so looking forward to finally play all these games. It's especially great to see Innsmouth no Yakata and Jack Bros. on the list. I would have never dared to dream.

Sven Schmalfuß @vedeksve.bsky.social · 25d

And games released by publishers long gone, where the licenses might be scattered in the wind (J-Wing's Virtual Lab; Coconuts Japan's Space Squash). But why wouldn't Nintendo release their own Nester's Funky Bowling? And hopefully Konami will make a Panic Bomber release possible. 2/2

Sven Schmalfuß @vedeksve.bsky.social · 25d

So thank to Virtual Boy Works by @jparish.bsky.social, I saw that the remaining 8 games, which have been published for the Virtual Boy but are not in the teaser picture, are manly the ones to be expected for licensing issues (SD Gundam: Dimension War; Waterworld; Virtual League Baseball). 1/2

Das mit den Tipps, war aber eigentlich als Spaß gemeint.
Nicht, dass Du Dich da jetzt reinstresst.

Uh, I love this.
I'd been dreaming about this, since Labo VR. And finally it's here.
Hopefully the emulation will be good.
And of course, I would love to see a physical collection.
@nintendousa.bsky.social wouldn't you like to contact @digitaleclipse.bsky.social?

Ne Classic.
Sie spielen laut Selbstauskunft ein Exile-Deck (weiß, blau, schwarz) und ein Punch-Deck (große Kanonen spammen, in bunt).
Ich als MTG-Noob, hab ein Assassin's Starter mit einem Grundstein-Jump-Pack gemischt. Farben: Schwarz, Weiß, Blau. 😜

Oh, ich kann das so gut nachfühlen. Daher luge ich ab und zu noch in mein Twitter-Profil, denn der Feed dort ist sauber darauf trainiert mir nur lauter tolle neue Indie-Games vor zu schlagen. Das tut so gut.
