I have a new Virtual WarZone: Ground Zero demo game for Virtual Boy. It plays on 32Mbit and new 128Mbit VB flash carts. MrCART128 with ESSound even has level and boss music!

Nintendo used a NJ warehouse as its HQ for the NES launch in 1985 -- we found it. James and Pat discuss the discovery and the building's story. youtube.com/watch?v=1OOqxNBq…

We have ported our entire image conversion pipeline, prev grit + heavy pre/postprocessing, to JS. It is now not only on average 10x faster, but also comes with new features to optimize tilesets to a given tile count by deduplicating near-identical tiles. github.com/VUEngine/VB-Image…

We are hard at work on a new built-in emulator for the upcoming new version of #VUEngineStudio! Built around the accurate Shrooms-VB core, our new frontend will offer all kinds of debugging features that we hope you will love as much as we do. #VirtualBoy #homebrew #VUEngine

I'm running a rare sale on Hyperboy+ eInk based flash carts for #Virtualboy. It has a BWRY eInk panel that retains your game label art even after power down.

Also discounting the last couple of #Virtualboy Warzone CIB games. Only 3 left. These units will come in red shells instead of the OEM gray.

End of an era… 💔 After 14 years and 1.7 billion views, YouTube removed the original Rick Roll. 😢

Well, this is something isn't it?
As I tell people all the time, this isn't just about plastic or paper, it's about cultural, artistic, and historical preservation.

WTF
AI companies are purchasing large quantities of used and rare books. Scanning their contents to train models. Then turning the originals to pulp.
The sum of human thought, digitized and shredded.
Every book that gets scanned disappears from the physical world permanently. The knowledge survives only as training data inside a system no one can hold, browse, or resell.
What used to sit on a shelf for centuries now exists as weights in a model that might get deprecated next quarter.
