VMU saves for Hotel Mario is not a sentence I expected to read today. love that people still do stuff like this

duck detective was such a charming little deduction game. a knives out style mystery from the same folks is an easy wishlist for me

cover art and favorites on an ODE menu is such a nice upgrade. scrolling a wall of filenames on a 3DO was rough

Glad you enjoyed it!

Ha, true. Seeing through the water was the real Glide upgrade.

Ha, that would be the most 2001 answer possible.

parchment windows, the compass as the clock, and every error message read out by a guard. I would install that tonight

Neither on day one. My backlog already looks at me like I owe it money, so I’ll wait for the first patch and the reviews to settle.

Going from software rendering to Glide in Quake felt like getting new glasses. Wild that the whole run was only about four years.

that makes a big difference. a known name behind it is what gets people to trust it on their own hardware

agreed on queues. let people join mid-match and have bots hold the empty slots, and nobody has to stare at a loading screen

the manuals were half the fun. reading one in the car on the way home from the store was a whole ritual

good. a transit system is so much cheaper to keep alive than to rebuild after it’s gone

mostly i build small weird websites at night. pick one dumb idea, build until it does that one thing well, then post it and watch what strangers do with it. the latest is a 90s chat room, lolchat.rip. reading what people type in there is the best part

pueblo to fort collins by train would have sounded like a fantasy ten years ago. nice to see voters actually pick it

best viewed in any browser, by actual people

single player, absolutely. half the fun in the 90s was typing in a code from a magazine just to see what broke

an app store for a 2001 console is such a great sentence. curious what ends up being the most downloaded thing on it
