I just realized that between December 1st and January 1st, I uploaded no less than 15 #Danish translation #romhacks To RomHackPlaza!

Meaning there are now 1,500% more #NES games available to enjoy in Danish than before!

Urgh.
Well, my evening is ruined -_-

I have been purchasing RetroUSB's Xmas #NES carts every year since 2008 when he first started doing them.

The 2025 edition is apparently going to be the last, and for whatever reason, stock extremely limited and I guess I barely missed it
-_-

I'm today's issue of Regional Video Game Boxart Comparisons
We have

Super Monkey Ball 2
For the #GameCube

The U.S cover going for a more natural out-and-about look here
Where the EU has more of a poster-look with its spiral background

Which do you prefer?
U.S < or > EU

Just got back from the new #Zootopia 2.
It was really good!

But you know what I kinda miss these days?
Tie-in games.

What happened to these?

Back in the day, basically every movie would be accompanied by a game, mediocre as they often were.

A game set in the Zootopia universe would be so cool!

In today's issue of Regional Video Game Boxart Comparisons
We have

Blue Shadow (EU)
Or
Shadow or the Ninja (U.S)
For the #NES

I would say the U.S has a more western, traditional 90s action theme.
While the EU's cover looks distinctly more Japanese

Which do you prefer?
EU < or > U.S

Might be a little late for Halloween but regardless, I still wanted to share this rather innovative #Sonic 1 #romhack

"PTMZD"
Is a horror-themed hack that takes the original game and really flips the gameplay on it's head by turning it into a
first-person, 3D maze game

Wanted to take a minute to share and showcase this really cool 2019 #Sega Genesis/Mega Drive demo

"The Spiral"
By "Resistance"

The demo shows off some really impressive visual effects like normal mapping, tons of particles, physics, etc.

Here's an upcoming, super endearing #indie game that I'm certain will appeal to all you fans of #PaperMario out there

"Escape from Ever After"

As a storybook hero, you have to fight off a greedy Megacorp from taking over fairytales

Seriously.
Why did we never receive a Secret of NIMH game? >:c

It feels like a setting that would've lend itself really well to a game.

One game I've always been curious whether could feasably be run on a #SNES with the SuperFX2 or a #Sega 32X with some necessary tweaks

Would be
Super Monkey Ball

Graphically, it doesn't look THAT much more intense than Starfox 2 or Stunt Race FX

They got it working on #GBA afterall

Still the best Kart racer of its generation.

And that AMAZING, timeless soundtrack!

That ridiculously cruel & intimating Wizpig showoff still evokes all or my childhood PTSD to this day xD

I never was able to beat him

#Timesplitters 2 & Future Perfect has always been among my most beloved FPS games of the 2000s.
They were basically spiritual sequels to Goldeneye & Perfect Dark

"Timesplitters Rewind"
Is a new, lovingly crafted remake

If you've also been feeling that craving for a that new #Starfox game for ages that #Nintendo refuses to give us,

Then you should check out:

As if seeing Super Mario 64 running on #PS1 yesterday wasn't bamboozling enough

Today, "Frogbull" on Youtube uploaded a tech demo of #Spyro running on #N64 hardware

This is some parallel universe stuff
