Here's Disaster Day Of Crisis a very ambitious project by Monolith Soft and dubbed by Animaze and ZRO Limit. I'm not exactly sure in what capacity Kevin Seymour was involved with this one as the voice director is listed as Mary Elizabeth McGlynn. Preproduction documents below. 🧵

It’s low-stakes anime mystery time again! Today's topic: the mystery Ghost in the Shell UMDs secretly thrown inside the box for other, unrelated Manga DVDs. Why were they there? And when did this happen? And how many are there?

In the original arcade version of Final Fight, there's a third button whose function is to escape grabs. It's not wired by default in arcade machines, but was left in the game code and can be accessed via emulation. Here, I tested it via MiSTerFPGA. It was probably used by the devs during QA.

Anybody who wants to use this format, please go ahead! We would absolutely love for people to be as transparent as possible with credits. Who cares if they're long! People who worked on the game deserve their accolades, and if they ever need to get a job (god forbid) their role is now hyper clear.

Credits are basically a free space. Players will watch them or not. Those who do will come to understand how each person participated. We also credit everyone who ever touched the game in any way. This means for a relatively small team our credits are long. But who cares? Why be stingy with it?

We did something different with the credits for Demonschool. We used this format: name, title, lengthy description of what they did. Often you see credits in games where you don't know what the credited developer was actually responsible for. We wanted to give people proper, actual credit.

Mario Kart: Double Dash contains a bizarre "eternal European pain" glitch whereby being burned when entering a pipe will cause the character to remain in pain indefinitely, but only in the European version.

Added code for a run button :) Hold B to run. It moves the menu from B to Start, but B still cancels.

Not a mention of any of this in Nintendo Life's or the other two reviews I just read calling HD Boosted the definitive edition.
Delta is incredible and deserves better than a hack job of speeding the game up. Hold off buying until fixed, if you were thinking of buying it, peeps.

Here's the in game finale to R-Type Delta which is running so fast the buildings no longer sink, all particles are missing & the music hard cuts as it's all been scrolled off-screen. The whole game's like this, so the music sync'ing to the action in st.3, lol no etc
Also missing enemies, bugs etc
