Hi I wrote about the Sega Master System and how it’s been criminally overlooked because everyone goes on about the NES like it was the only 8bit console in the world look don’t get me started

A good postal day - my RoboCop Rogue City Collection has arrived! 🙌 Considering Amazon chose to ship this in a large cardboard sleeve, it somehow arrived undamaged!

Be nice to go a day without someone deciding to mansplain common knowledge on gaming posts:

Q. Which game would u play 1st? (choice of 3)
A. 'That game was originally a mod made by a small team'

Right...

(guess it's all engagement tho) 🤷‍♂️

This is a narrative experience and the first thing I've ever made for SEGA MegaDrive/Genesis.

For a limited time I am making this available to all because I am excited to share this in the hopes that something comes of it—
