Animal Crossing on Nintendo 64 launched 25 years ago today in Japan! Easily one of the most influential games of all time. Is the original website from 2001 still up? You better believe it.

Cool magazine coversโฆIโm not creative enough to design my own levels but playing the levels of others was mostly fun. A couple creators I found made entire games with levels not far off what Nintendo outputs.
If you're at #PAXEast this weekend, some of the @nfpublishing.bsky.social team, myself included, will be doing a meetup at 3 p.m. TODAY (Saturday) in the handheld lounge.
Come say hi and chat about games with us!

Capcom's unleashing an all-out attack, with five different big-name games all launching within two months! Let's talk about it!
Man, @nfpublishing.bsky.social continues to be so great. Last issue was kinda stitched together poorly. Not a big deal imo. Unprovoked they reissued it and gave a detailed letter as to why.
I love physical media so Iโm happy to support. Give them a look if you miss the days of Nintendo Power.
Thanks for a fun night!
We raided our buddy @coollikeaninja.bsky.social !
Shoutouts to @nfpublishing.bsky.social for great reviews of UFO 50!
Back to broadcasting tomorrow, then a community watch event in our Discord.
See ya โround the internets!
Talk about a hell of a prediction! I was reading the Virtual Boy coverage in the latest issue of @nfpublishing.bsky.social
last night when I ran across this article. This is one of the unreleased games that was revealed by Nintendo yesterday as coming later this year. Lucas absolutely nailed it!
As hoped for in our newest issue, Dragon Hopper has just been confirmed for release 30 years after its Summer 1996 release plans were cancelled!
Looking for this book? We've still got in stock, so pick up this and other cool books from our pals at @nfpublishing.bsky.social!

Love to see it! Glad you enjoyed it, John. Thanks!
Really surprising choice for Nintendo's next live-action movie adaptation, but I'm exciting to see it!
A view of "Monsteropolis" from HDGG: Mega Man. We decided the throwback name to the original manual would be fun & Capcom approved. I looked over Mega Man X maps for inspiration, and the layout was built around the boss placements on the select screen.
New magazine delivered today! I especially like the bold red color to celebrate the Virtual Boy.
Yeah I need to fix that. Fix going out today.

Thank you @heyphilsummers.bsky.social for this latest addition to our shelves! ๐
This #MegaMan book is gorgeous!
@lucasmthomas.bsky.social @nfpublishing.bsky.social @capcomusa.com
Wow @heyphilsummers.bsky.social this is incredible! Youโve outdone yourself. Congrats.
Oh hey! Capcom just revealed that a new Mega Man game is in the works, and we're officially launching our brand-new Mega Man book in less than a week! Whaddya know! :p
Welcome back, Blue Bomber! (And everyone check out @heyphilsummers.bsky.social's new Hand-Drawn Game Guides: Mega Man!)
Feels strange to hold the finished product. Hard not to reflect on the whole year+ to get here. Drawing through a slipped disc, PT, juggling other projects, FT job, family, losing our dog. It was a lot. I just wanted to make the best Mega Man book I could. I hope you enjoy it.
A photo of Satoru Iwata, who would've been 66 years old today.
Happy Mr. Iwata's Birthday! Satoru Iwata was born on December 6, 1959. That's 66 years ago now! Play an Iwata game this weekend to honor his memory!
