I've been going through my archives for NES Wolverine and have managed to re-assemble my original 6502 game code and create a build from the 1st August 1990. As you can see it's a VERY early demo with the 8-way scroll routine, panel and collision working. No Wolverine sprites yet!
Dune: Part Three director Denis Villeneuve says that 17 years have passed since the last film, and Paul is dealing with the consequences of his actions.
Timothée Chalamet adds, "Paul has become his worst vision."

Recently, Fangamer asked me to make a post in Japanese regarding the translation of OFF. Well...in the responses to that post, I noticed some frustration from Latin American fans. Let me address a few of those issues now. 1. There is an officially licensed UNDERTALE concert series that unfortunately has no shows planned in Latin America. I did retweet its schedule on request, but I have hardly any involvement with the concert series and no input on where they perform. But, the organizers have heard the enthusiasm from Latin America, and I personally think it would be great to have performances there. I hope it works out! 2. Fangamer’s shipping costs to Latin America are prohibitively expensive. As just one of Fangamer’s clients, I am aware of this problem and I’ve asked them about possible solutions before. I think it would be amazing if they could find affordable shipping to Latin America (and other affected regions), but they have expressed that it’s a huge logistical hurdle. The other shipping methods they’ve tried had a lost package rate of over 50%… Still, I think Fangamer is interested in finding solutions, so I hope that we can figure out some way to get affordable merch to Latin American fans. Fangamer is very easy to work with and truly passionate about the things they make. I really trust them and would prefer to collaborate exclusively with them on merch.
3. Unfortunately, there are no translations for UNDERTALE into other languages besides Japanese. That includes Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese, but also every other language – Chinese, Korean, Russian, French, German, Italian, and more. I know it sucks that there are no other official translations for UNDERTALE. But I want to make it clear that this isn’t because I have a grudge against other countries. It’s because, if I release something official, I want it to match my vision. I was only able to do this for the Japanese version because I know Japanese myself, and I worked very closely with our brilliant translator to thoroughly check the text. I am not against official translations for other languages if we could make it work the same way… In the past I have looked into various options with my publisher, 8-4, but nothing has come of that yet. Maybe I should try a different approach. I’m very happy that there are unofficial translations on PC. Considering I don’t understand other languages, letting fans interpret the game without the burden of being “officially” perfect is amazingly helpful. As for DELTARUNE, it’s just not feasible from a development standpoint to support other languages right now, since it would make the game take longer to come out... --- I’m honored to have many fans across the world, and of course that means Latin America too. I don’t want anyone to feel left out. I’m sorry if my silence made me seem like I was ignoring anyone.
A message for my fans in Latin America.

To understand what's happening in Iran today, you have to know about the history of Western intervention in the country.
In the early 1900s, the British secured oil rights in the country until 1993, where they only agreed to pay Iran 16% of the total profits.
This was seen as an unfair deal. 🧵
