Hang with me while I build a Vpin
Atari 2600 Homebrew Upgrades
The Atari 2600 was a formidable system in its day. It was a runaway success, spawned several subsequent consoles that, unfortunately, didn’t see the same success, and had an absolutely humongous library of games. While most of that library consisted of original games for the system, a fair number were ports of popular arcade games…

Launching in Japan alongside the new Legends: Z-A physical release. Pokémon Pokopia was the first Nintendo title released on a Game-Key Card, and while nothing is changing on this front, it’s been announced an updated release is on the way to Japan. Read the full article on nintendolife.com
TIL what may or may not be the oldest board game in recorded history is also, perhaps inevitably, now a roguelike
Are you aware of Oh!Ware? I’m guessing not. The deckbuilder has been on Steam for about a week as of this writing, with a humble 23 reviews to its name so far.

Agony! Two life sims I really want to play launched back to back
Nivalis Nights Everyone’s been waiting years for this cyberpunk “slice of life” and shop sim and I’m logging my nightly progress as my noodle bar empire begins. I enjoy a good shop sim, especially when there’s decorating to do too. Nivalis Nights is moody and neon-drenched and has a deeper shop finances simulation than I…
The Americans have officially renamed artificial intelligence to ‘Super Intelligence,’ which should fix everything
Yup, it’s real. They did it. Here’s the full executive order, if you want to take it all in. Pity poor Sports Illustrated. It’s laughable, up there with similarly demented efforts to rename the Gulf of Mexico, Lake Ontario, and maybe New Mexico—I guess we’ll see how that one ultimately shakes out. It’s also pretty…
To celebrate September 30, the day the cop inside of Leon Kennedy died, here’s my most traumatic encounters in Resident Evil
Today’s basically a national holiday for Resident Evil fans. September 30 marks 28 years since the day the cop inside Leon S Kennedy died, the day he’ll never forget; when Raccoon City was wiped out by Umbrella’s classic mishandling of bioweapons in Resident Evil 2. So to celebrate the day that made Leon S Kennedy…
