What if... Japanese woodblock artist Kawase Hasui had travelled as far as some of his contemporaries? How would he have seen the world? I took the "world tour" route from the video game Pang, added a few locations of my own, and made some images. blog.gingerbeardman.com/2022/12/29/kaw

Not sure if these are anywhere else on the Internet in full resolution, so here, have some giant size (for 2005) images of the "Revolution controller." These were handed out at the first preview of the controller, at Tokyo Game Show 2005. Spot the differences!

New blog post time! This week's game is Funky Jet, a combination of a single screen platformer and a beat 'em up that equips you with a jetpack and asks you to punch dudes so hard that they fly into each other. It's funky, it's fresh, and it's fun! ephemeralenigmascom.wordpress.com/2023/03/07/fun

I clicked a link on Twitter and got the error "Your current API plan does not include access to this endpoint". I guess this means Twitter is so desperate for cash that it started charging Twitter for API access to Twitter, but Twitter couldn't pay for it.

What is the earliest depiction of a video game in a Hollywood movie? Earliest I can find so far The Parallax View (1974), where a character plays a Pong type game with a chimp.

If you love WipeOut then you gotta try BallisticNG! Having some fun today with the SNES to Arduino shield I built with

SNES controller or mouse will appear as standard HID mouse or gamepad. Now it just needs multitap support for simulating 4 controllers at once.

The recent mobygames redesign has made me such to gamefaqs. So many regressions, omissions, missing data (though it's still in the backend). Must be quite an ego required to push that crap on all users.

Did you know that Danger, a company founded mainly by ex-Apple talent, nearly released a mobile phone that could run GBA games? This is a fascinating read and a look at an alternate past which could have dramatically altered the way we live, communicate and play today.

DiscMaster is dead, long live DiscMaster. "No additional items will be added to the DiscMaster website for the forseeable future." It's the end of an all-to-brief era. What a ride whilst it lasted, though! Soon it will be possible to run your own install of the indexing tool.
