Got a friend some vinyl LPs while traveling in Japan, decided to digitize them before gifting them. The first one is 超時空要塞マクロス Macross Vol.II, aka The Super Dimension Fortress Macross Vol. 2
"Pro Fighter X" SNES copier
It's displaying the volume name first, "CHRIS" then overlaying invalid entries into the file list. Also tries to load invisible files...
My disk fix code. Done through a bit of searching and trial-and-error, since these BIOSes don't run on emulators, and no SNES emu emulates floppies anyway...
Pro Fighter X file display fixed up! Also with a new tilde glyph added into the font, as well as a new custom SFC background
The "Pro Fighter X" series of SNES copiers has kinda stupid disk handling code: it doesn't filter out FAT entries on floppy disk that should never be displayed, like the Volume name ("CHRIS"), directories, and long filename chunks. This causes errors during display & loading. So I RE'd and fixed it.
ALLIE brand sunscreen featuring Kirby
In Taipei, Taiwan just shopping around when I spotted a familiar face while walking through a drug store. I 💯 trust Kirby to protect my skin!
Missing a CopyNES USB installed, otherwise similar to mine, very cool.

MISSING! HELP!
I am looking for the playing card deck from GDC 2020! It was printed but the show was cancelled. I have heard rumors that they gave them away but I've never seen one and no one on GDC staff has a set. I'm in it and want to complete my set! Let's bring my card home! To me!
I'm a Patreon member, it is the original sound track to the NES Super Mario Bros. that [the artist formerly known as] Prince wrote before backing out after negotiations turned sour. #NoGateKepping
Hot Take®™, there are bigger issues to deal with than using AI to make something useful. It is the same sort of vitriol people contributing nothing direct towards well meaning people for social issues. Your selective adoption of technology doesn't make you a saint, as using AI doesn't make you evil.
Gaming Alexandria is our load-bearing pillar for access to Japanese scans and hubz is the hardest-working guy I know in game preservation, so I'd really appreciate it if we didn't destroy him with a dogpile over his vibe coding project please. Show some empathy and grace if you disagree with it.
Go buy my music on Bandcamp, it is only one dollar! It can also be free if you pirate it 🏴☠️🦜⛵️

Shared a video of high school kids protesting ICE in downtown Seattle from my office, the post went viral on Reddit, mildly on TikTok, and no where on YouTube. Didn't post as an Instagram Reel because I posted it as a story instead.

Seattle ICE Protest at the Henry M Jackson Federal Building Saturday, Jan. 24th, 2026
Our friend Mr. Frederickson lost his battle with terminal cancer over the weekend. He'd worked for a year to translate the sequel to his favorite Sega Saturn RPG "Mystaria: The Realms of Lore" but passed it to others in his final days. His story:

Thank you, it's always hard to watched loved ones move on, but I'm very happy I was able to actually be there with him.

Unexpectedly had to put my cat Mo' Biscuits down today. He suddenly started having trouble walking over the weekend which then progressed to him no longer eating. He would have turned 20 this year. If you ever stayed the night he likely tried to snuggle with you. I love you Mo.
If you are in Seattle, please go patronize this store because this is amazing content/promo 😂 (laughing to keep from crying, and I do kind of low-key want that orange spider plant I have never seen that before)

This week is the 25th anniversary of SNES Central! nz126x has provided me with a prototype of Tetsuwan Atom (Astro Boy) to release for the occasion. The game is nearly complete, but has debug features and some missing levels. #SNES snescentral.com/review.php?i...
No joke though if there are crazy Animal Crossing New Horizons people who are crazy enough at reversing the code to some extent to find the SNES emulator (NES too but especially SNES) I'm down for addresses or GHIDRA/IDA Pro projects and shit lol
Honestly, not a huge net gain in quitting but it was a Redbull a day amount, not even a crazy or high amount, so it wasn't as bad as it could be. The headaches and muscle pains were the worst part.
Caffeine detox was harsh , the dependency sneaks up on you ☕️🫖🧋🍵
As part of SNES Central's 25th anniversary, I just published a prototype of The Brainies, which appears to be transitional between the US and PAL releases. Many thanks to @hiddenpalace.org for sending this my way! snescentral.com/review.php?i...

Little did I know there was an interest in this particular commercial- more than expected views, and some comments. I was expecting that from the Nintendo or PS2 game ad, but it is always fun to unknowingly wander into interesting niches. youtu.be/ohtUBU8tWLc
