Anyone know off-hand if R-Type Tactics is going to offer an upgrade patch on Switch 2 for people who buy the Switch 1 cart? Thinking of picking it up tomorrow to show some support to Granzella during a time of clear duress for them, but can't find any definitive info. 🤔 (cc @allcityslopshop.com)
happy mario day
women at GDC being asked “do you work in games?” is such a stupid question. most people i know work in an office or from home
reminder: their last game came out like three weeks ago (and alongside another doujin STG with its own solo-2P functionality, as it happens)
Terarin really does not fuck around: they've opened a Steam page for Raging Blasters 2, ETA 2027 on Switch & PC https://store.steampowered.com/app/4500530/Raging_Blasters_2/ this sequel adds a larger emphasis on the co-op functionality, including "pseudo-2P" systems for solo players
The point has come up that preservation has good return on investment (re-releases, promotional opportunities, etc), which sometimes is what you need to persuade management (for better or worse) #GDC2026
Some concerns being voiced about how to get internal buy-in from publishers to preserve materials, rather than just moving onto the next project. Obviously everyone in the room cares, but how do you get management to value it? #GDC2026
A large roundtable room.
Game preservation roundtable. I want to know what the game dev community thinks is important about these issues, so I'll mostly be listening (unless I really really need to say something) #GDC2026
This is amazing.
When the government kills a crucial report, independent scientists decide to write it anyway and release it outside of government channels.
That’s science serving society, even when our political leaders don’t.
porn addiction isn't real. science agrees with me.
this is puritanical shame, often combined with people who struggle with dopamine release finally finding something that helps.
Fair but have you considered: "She bad tho"
when confronted with a giant maid, a sight that would have most of you barking and hitting yourself in the head with a hammer, mario is a cool operator and dispatches the threat quickly. this is what makes him a professional

Bomberman series producer Tatsunori Masuno talks Super Bomberman Collection 🇯🇵 one tidbit: filling the gallery was harder than one might've presumed—Hudson archived their key art via film positives, which req'd laborious cleanup, digitising etc https://www.gamespark.jp/article/2026/03/08/163643.html
Speaking as a (biased) localizer, this is legit one of the beautiful things about loc when it's done later, rather than simultaneously. You have time to figure out stuff like, "Oh, every chest has a separate 'it's closed' message rather than a universal one" and can tune your work accordingly.
NEW ARTICLE TIME!
You ever wonder why corporate shills demand we pay higher prices for shit we can barely afford now? I'm here to debunk their grift and tell you why games don't need to be more expensive than ever before.
