Nomura no Famicom Trade was a stock trading application for the Japan-only dial-up modem add-on for the Famicom. Through a Nintendo collaboration, the game featured Mario on the information screen, doing a unique little dance.

i see it from time to time! it stems from the kana ใƒ• being contextually read with an h or f sound.

A screenie of Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis intro sequence in room with lots of cat statues and pottery, with unexpectedly sharp Japanese characters over the cursor given the 320x200 resolution

Learned a neat fact about the FM Towns thanks to musing how it managed to such sharp kanji on a 320x200/240 game while trying out its port of Indiana Jones & The Fate of Atlantis.

Its custom video chip allows a higher resolution layer to be overlaid with a lower res one. In this case, subs.

that one guy going "i code everything with llms its the future bro" really explains this dropdown menu in the 'go live' feature (which i otherwise think is pretty good)

i diiiid shell swap it with the broken one. the working psp go was one of the black models. certainly nice in its own right, but i like the glittery finish the white shell has (and smudges/prints are far less visible).

still poking around the broken one, but i picked up a working psp go and am enamored with it. extremely cute little handheld. impressively thin. thoroughly late aughts in its sensibilities. for slower games or those that don't make frequent use of the shoulders, it's not particularly uncomfortable.

definitely. there were a couple moments that stuck out, but the raccoon city segment especially was lacking in memorable encounters or variety for how long it was. i adored grace's sections, so the shift to really perfunctory action without much skill expression or environment design was ehhhh
