Just wanted to let #retrogaming know that there's a very small chat that just started recently on Matrix for retrogaming. Would be great to get more people to join up: #rgmng:matrix.org
Review for the Japanese version of Doshin the Giant on GameCube from Cube 8 - August 2002 (UK)
While this is not a game for everyone as at times it can barely feel like a game, this remains one of my fondest memories on the GameCube for me. Love Doshin. 🥰
@OutofPrintArchive Wish to god I had the reflexes for this game. I love the vibe, feel and tension but I spend 60% of each race grinding along the walls

I got pretty good at the game back in the day. But yeah, it’s a bit too brutal for me.
I never was able to unlock the AX tracks as one of those last challenges was just too hard for me.
It’s brilliant, but I kinda prefer X if I’m honest.
The original remains my favourite though.
Preview for 1080° Avalanche on GameCube when it was still known as "White Storm", which refers to Wave Race Blue Storm.

Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE Encore… BEAT! - Fun game! Campy af, but the combat is a blast! Goofy story, and the game had some minor annoyances, but it didn’t overstay its welcome.
Ultimately, a wonderful palette cleanser from Octopath Traveler 2 AND a perfect prep game for Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance next Friday.
Pour ceux qui d'entre vous ont une wiiU /3ds, il est grand temps de dumper vos données spotpass sur le spotpass archival project parce que les serveurs sont en trains d'être effacé. C'est la dernière limite maintenant :sadblob: #nintendo
Toutes les démarches y sont inscrites :blobcat_happy: car en fonction de l'appareil, la procédure pour télécharger et publier les données ne sont pas les mêmes.
Après, si besoin d'aide il y a aussi leur discord et si jamais je peux aider au cas où :blob_bolb:
Popie is a clone of the #Nintendo arcade game of Popeye, created for the #ZXSpectrum in 1984 and discovered on an old tape at Ocean Software by @MarkRJones1970. It was preserved by Mark in 2015, so you can play and check out the game for yourself:

I just want to add that if anyone is hesitant about watching an 81 minute video, don’t be!
I’ve been watching it in bits and pieces today due to health issues and I have to say, this is a must watch for anyone interested in the NES in Europe.
I’m quite knowledgeable myself on the topic, and yet I’ve learned some fascinating facts today.
@bill one thing that threw me off at first was how Pal B game were not compatible with Pal A consoles.
I have several French games myself as well as some small box German releases and they all work.
But then I remembered that decades ago,I had my NES modded so I could play games from the US.
So that has to be it. 😅
