Shanghai: Great Moments (1997)
A wild experience: relive some of mankind's greatest tragedies (ok, and accomplishments too) via tiny, public domain, FMV clips that play as you match tiles in mahjong solitaire

I don't think I've ever seen quite an interactive credits menu like this before. Pick the studio and navigate the pages at your leisure

Another fine in-game depiction of a memory card! This one is from Runabout 2, the second entry in the 5-part franchise of "driving comedy action" titles

And of course, this all stemmed from the memory card icons. Treasure Gear is a pretty heavy hitter in its own right, offering 20 icons, 10 for each job class in both male and female varieties!

There's a post on the site about the game and my guide as well if you'd like to see and read more: memcard.art/treasure-gea...
My latest deep dive diversion is wrapped up! Not only does it shed light on this fun low-poly roguelike Action-RPG, it's resulted in a huge English language guide for anyone who thinks this looks like something they might want to play. Check it out!

It's time for a repost of this wonderful little tidbit from Namco's J.League Soccer Prime Goal EX
The warning still holds too, those are some infectious tunes!

I've been thinking about this so much lately. That cover has always looked weird and kind of lazy but now it looks like some prophetic A.I. artifact

I can't make any progress in this murder mystery but the title screen sure does make an impression

Oops! I should've reposted this one a few weeks ago alongside the release of 'Reimagined'. It isn't an animated icon so I added a little pizazz

So wild that this has become my most Liked post. Is it the Asterix community at work?
Yeah it seemed on par to me for what I know of the comics. Only ever read a few
Asterix: Mega Madness (2001)
The most elaborate (and not at all stereotyping) language select screen I've ever seen!

Yes!! I just discovered it last year and it's still on my mind
Another beautiful tome from @darrenhupke.bsky.social has arrived! This one delving into 50+ Greatest Hits titles, a smorgasbord of faves and some unexpected top sellers. Looking forward to reading more

Oh, you said it. Even the bad ones are interesting or hilarious in unique ways that are just more charming than most anything modern. Good point about Square there too!
For sure! There's so many good touches, I kinda want to just hang out in Action Man's pad. He's even got a PS1, I'm all set
Oh very true, just about anyone who has survived from pre-online console eras has had to go in that huge AAA direction and decrease output. I do miss the volume and variety they were turning out, onto PS2 also
You can play miniaturized (and totally unlicensed) versions of Frogger and Pong to get in-game collectibles and you punch in cheat codes via terminal (2/2)
Speaking of Action Man and its impressive stylings that came up in @seanseanson.bsky.social 's latest, someone spent a lot of time on the PC in the Options menu. Not only does it emulate a bunch of classic screensavers... (1/2)

All good ones! I wish I was more proficient with Japanese to be able to stick with some of those. I ran through Armored Core and spent some hours with the King's Field titles last year too, love that there's just a FROM vibe that permeates all their titles even that far back
What have you found lately? I'm working through the JP library for the site and I've already been put on hold twice for surprise games that I've fallen so hard for I've bought physical copies and crafted guides/translations
And hell yeah, those Action Man games have way, way, WAY more style and production quality than they needed for being derived from action figures!
