Just saw this screenless audio player for younger kids called Yoto advertised on the telly. Umm, I wondered, what's the best-selling album on it, for, y'know, the little 'uns?

Found this while digging around for a random game for Saturday. I don't have many signed things but some Tron light cycles signed by Syd Mead will do for starters.

Quick question to anyone who colours digitally on something that will eventually be printed traditionally. What's your go-to CMYK profile? I tend to go with something like euroscale uncoated but is there a default that the big comic folks use?

Yes, I did make sure to watch TVAM for the Pac-Man cartoon. Anything to do with games I tell you, anything!

One of my fave SFC sprites from Super Back To The Future - Part II. I've always thought how epic this could have been if it had gotten the golden-era Konami 16bit treatment with levels set across all three movies.

Don’t think I can ever un-see the Thunderbirds themed dance on Strictly just now. I’m sure Gerry would have been proud.

I'm not all that sold on the cover for today's #randomgamesaturday but the game itself is a banger.

Been laid up in bed with 'the lurgi' all week. I tell you, a mix of 1970s and '80s ITV and '80s-'90s anime is a heady mix when you're under the weather and doped up on flu remedies.

Hinge broke on a 3-year old oven. No problem, we have a 5 year extended warranty.
Took them over a month to say that they can't find a replacement hinge so have marked it as 'wear and tear' which isn't covered. Case closed.
What can go wrong with an oven that can't be labelled as 'wear and tear'?

Me, walking into WHSm... er, TGJones thinking 'now, only if there were a publication for the fan of pretty'.
Pretty Fan [プリティファン] Vol. 1 (April 28, 1997) has been scanned and archived. A sister magazine to Game Navi, coming from me it should surprise nobody it's bishoujo-focused. Interview with Takami Akai and an thorough look at Gainax's CD productions. Enjoy!

Happy Space 1999 Breakaway Day. 50 years since it was, er... 1999, or 1975 and the moon was blasted out of earth's orbit. Only this Eagle survived.
