Nintendo's systemic policy of miscrediting is harming external translators External translators who've worked on major franchises including The Legend of Zelda and Animal Crossing have been refused credits and locked into decade-long NDAs gamedeveloper.com/production/nin…

Extremely cool news: This enormously unique indie TTRPG about writing letters was just translated to English. $6! (And at the time of writing, community copies still remain!) Y'all gotta support this 😭

something kinda odd/sad about how nations' major social quirks feel represented in their countries' most predominant game genres. USA with shooters/f2p skinner boxes... Japan and gacha games.. China and those empire-management sims

Hot take: It's an *even cooler story* that Mario Maker had a single TASsed level. Team 0% set out to leave no level uncleared – but unbeknownst to them, in 2017, someone who didn't know what would happen seven years later snuck a *single humanly impossible level* past Nintendo.

Just released Red Viper, a Virtual Boy emulator that runs on the Nintendo 3DS. All official games run at full speed! github.com/skyfloogle/red…


Power Pros has two-part titles à la Monster Hunter or New Horizons, that the commentator says *out loud*. It's fun to find the dumbest combos, like “THE LATE MAN!” or “FRIEND OF 4,000 YEARS OF CHINA!”, but I've settled into the most accursed one… “Stepping up to bat: YOUR DAD!”

??? I'm playing a random installment of what I thought was just an annualized Japanese baseball game series, but it turns out it's also a roguelite… Pokémon-like… pseudo-dating sim…? And it's the most fun I've had with a game this year? There are 120 GAMES IN THIS FRANCHISE.
