Hey, we're in San Francisco. 🙂 Are you planning on attending SGX? It will be our first time there.
Our panel for #SacGamersExpo, "Enhancement Chips: How Nintendo Cartridges Leveled Up" is currently up to 50 images, 12 videos, and 8 slides of assembly code. I think it's safe to say we're not holding back on this one! 😁
