I went in blind on Wonder Boy in Monster Land, a game I'd never played because I never had a SEGA Master System.

Audio's a little wonky because I accidentally recorded voice and game to the same channel and had to try and fix the mix manually.

Oh, some of you are like, NEW new.

1. They’re called skeets. No, you will not change that.
2. Use alt text.
3. This isn’t Twitter. If you act like a fool, you will get blocked so hard you cease to exist to some folks. If you really act a fool you get put in the Louvre.

Nope. Nope. Nope.
Not cool.
Not here.
Not ever.

We will keep working with real translators and narrators (and artists and proofreaders and authors and...) without any of this "AI" bullshit.

The 2025 Frankfurt Book Fair heard that developments in AI audiobooks mean publishers will no longer have to decide whether to translate a book, but instead just choose which market to translate into 👇 #FBM25

AI audio means publishers ‘don’t have to choose whether to translate, only which market’, FBF hears

This was one of our first games for the system, grabbed at a garage sale with a box of others. All I can say is that I'm glad I didn't pay retail price for it.

Entirely added by the localization team.

Indirectly. It was a term used for "European colonies in the New world" derived from Columbus's name in the 18th century when papers couldn't directly publish parliamentary debates. Later became a poetic adjective for America, and THAT's what DC (and other American Columbias) were named for.

Nothing lasts forever. All empires fall. And these guys are both selfish and incompetent.

We may not be alive to see it, but it will end.
