I'm benstylus.

I block/mute 18+ accounts, ai, bots, overly aggressive/abrasive people, techbros, etc.

DM's are OK but don't send unsolicited commissions/sales/fundraisers/etc. Not interested.

Just here to be happy.

he/him or they/them is fine.
Some ideas:
Pixels 'N Pizza
16-Bit Pizza
Playroom Pizza
CRT Pizza (assuming you have CRTs)

I also like the way "Cart Only Pizza" rolls of the tongue but it would only mean anything to collector. Maybe that's be a menu thing where by the slice is cart only but a full pizza is CIB lol

Surely you mean a Kung Fu Master/Spartan X clone?

Yie Ar Kung Fu is a one on one fighter (more akin to Street Fighter)

Yep, spreading hate is a surefire way to never be happy.

Noooooooo!

:-(

This is a shocking and terrible loss.

They kept putting me in the wrong US State for sales tax purposes. I reached out to them and within a couple days they had it corrected. Maybe they can fix your UK/EU mixup too.

Seven that the author of that article was informed of. Who knows how many lesser known ones were out there.

At least 7 places. I think i need to buy some brain bleach.

I remember Alicia Silverstone talking about getting weirded out by being nominated for the MTV Movie Awards' Most Desirable Female category for her performance in The Crush.

Even ignoring how problematic that category is by itself, she was 16 when the movie came out...

In a time when that niche needed filling in the English speaking world, WD was there.

Often frustratingly so, but remember that the company that inserted immature jokes into the Lunars and Popful Mail also brought us stuff like Dragon Force, Sega Ages, RayForce, RayCrisis, and Thunder Force V.

I do have a good thing to say about working designs. They took a chance on some games that otherwise wouldn't have released in the west.

After the massive success of the PlayStation, and FF7's mainstreaming of RPGs, other publishers stepped in and took up that mantle.

Here it is:

A link to a post about it rather than the article itself because the Tyler Cowen deserves zero clicks

How much of right wing politics would flat out just disappear if men didn't have weird sexual neuroses?

Yikes on trikes. Reminds me of that weirdo writer who recently had an article about an AI actress being your best chance to see a virgin on screen or something to that effect.

With all the delays in releasing it in the US, they could have been 18 by the time Working Designs finally got it out!

That's not how it works? And they even talk at the beginning about how they mistook each other for grade schoolers? Oh, ok. I'll go back to my ick at WD's marketing people, then.

This implies that he already was outed as a scammer 7 times before he became Tommy Tallarico (starting with Z through U) and I want to know what he did under those names!

As a fellow "old" Sega Fan, the only time I get existential dread is when Sega announces something new in a long dormant franchise.

"We're bringing back Crazy Taxi!"

Ok, cool, same great arcade gameplay as before right?

"No, that's outdated. We're pivoting to an open-world MMO now."

If your opinion isn't extreme and you don't have a thumbnail featuring an image of yourself making a face that would get you removed from the premises anywhere else, apparently you don't get the views.

I'll be over here enjoying some Data East games.

"A remaster that is replacing the original is never desirable, irrespective of quality."

Sega is covering their ears and saying LALALA I'M NOT LISTENING

Yeah it was a @discotekmedia.bsky.social release a few years back. Probably long out of print sadly.
