Happy 25th anniversary to Shenmue, one of my favorite games of all time.
I hope we get to see Ryo's journey continue some day.

People can disrespect the Digital Pictures library all they want, but Slam City and Prize Fighter are actually pretty fun when technology isn't holding them back.
I'm excited to re-release these.

Ten years ago, right around this exact moment, I clicked a button to launch sales of Breach & Clear on the PS Vita. I had no idea this journey would last this long or where it would take me. I am grateful for every moment. Thank you to everyone that has supported @limitedrungames.com!

We spent the last two days in Redmond for a few meetings with Nintendo. Today, I got to eat a pizza cooked by Doug Bowser himself. We also played some Mario Kart, and one of my co-workers narrowly defeated Doug in a knockout tour! It's going to be very hard for any other work trip to top this one.

I am in love with our Dreamcast game case keychains. If it wasn't clear from our mockups, these little guys open up and have tiny discs inside.
Everything snaps securely, but I loosened it all up to show it with one hand.

Even after 30 years, the Windows 95 startup sound still gives me chills.
Something about it is nostalgic in a way few other startup sounds are.

Raise your hand if you know what these are.
This is one of the first examples of an officially licensed online exclusive direct to consumer game release for a major platform.
It's pretty much the earliest ancestor to the limited print publishing model.

Anyone else have this Sonic toaster? I had tucked it away in storage and completely forgot I had bought it from SEGA - apparently, it's pretty sought after now

Anyone else collect big box PC games? I tend to gravitate towards collecting games from publishers who used consistent box sizes and design elements.

Once I learned of the existence of a Sonic the Hedgehog swatch that displays internet time - I had to get a hold of one. This is the closest we got to a Phantasy Star Online watch (which was the only game to acknowledge swatch's proprietary "internet time").

Legendary Pokemon artist Mistuhiro Arita signed my Charmander, Charmeleon, and Charizard TCG cards.
Pokemon Red and, by extension, Charizard, means a lot to me as it was the game that pushed me to want to make my own games.
