Deeply upsetting that Segagaga of all games was subjected to an AI translation. This shit sucks.

I wish I could be a cool kid and say I knew about this game already, but I did not, and I'm pretty mad about it. I could've been playing it all this time????

the 3D cartoon robot who turns into a dinosaur and his name is dinobot has one of the greatest character arcs in any piece of media ever

Loved your work on these. Inspired me to pitch myself with bios for Cradon and Seawave, which never got published, but did eventually lead to the Counterpunch story.

I’ll take it! DMing you now.

So excited to see @nadiaoxford.bsky.social ‘s book nearing closer to release! I worked with Nadia as her editor on this and I can tell you it’s as funny and touching as you’d expect.

I don't think this was on purpose, but he's really goofy looking in a charmingly 80s robot toy kind of way.

Not an 80s Transformers toy, just a kind of generic robot guy. Kiiiiiind of what a Hasbro-developed Kranix might've looked like if released then? It's not "good" but it is working for me.

I’m confident that if they remastered this on Switch it would sell well enough to make up for the lackluster original sales. Such a gem that deserves more love and attention.

The spirit of British punk in turn of the 90s Japan. 🔥

Also mine when guys hit me with creepy DMs.

Beautiful Astro City! Looks like it's been really well taken care of.

Beautiful piece. Just barely missed an opportunity to buy one once. Someday…

I had to convince my mom it was worth it (and necessary, immediately) to rent MK3 despite it being available on the Sega Channel because the code to unlock Smoke in my just-received Tips 'n Tricks magazine did not work on the split versions, and I had to play as him. Had to!

Even at the time I knew it was special. You couldn't save in it though, so it would be many years until I was able to play through Wily Tower.

Great video! As someone who was there for Sega Channel this was really enjoyable. Am looking forward to setting aside some time to looking at all the internal docs!

This is a very fun and cool deep dive. I feel very lucky to have been a Sega Channel subscriber pretty much throughout its availability in Northern California. Such a cool service. That menu is powerfully nostalgic.

(also, where'd you order Wood and Bubble from? EE?)

Oh, I sure did forget Snake Man. I am excited for that!

I'll forever be annoyed that the line didn't take an anthology approach from the jump. drip-feed the 1&2 to keep the line juiced and include literally anything else in every wave.

A recent interview suggested it would continue but not follow "the same model of a Mega Man and two Robot Masters every wave."

My kingdom for literally anything 3-11.

Your Posting is a big reason it’s been on my list!

Turns out this was a digibash done the old-fashioned way, and somebody AI-d over it for some reason! To clarify: the original digibasher is not the loser!

Making a magenta hot rod would be the absolute easiest digibash you could possibly do. whoever made this is a huge loser.

Yeah, there are some other things that make it feel like it’s a bit pieced together from different ideas throughout its very long development.

100%. Why did they do this? What about it makes sense in a Metroid?

Absolutely killer. Such a great era.

Well so far I’m a big-time hater of the open desert bike stuff in Metroid Prime 4.

I definitely love the way the game looks.

There’s special dishwasher soap. Don’t put regular soap in it!

This was on my “when I’m good enough with Japanese…” bucket list to play, so I too am very excited
