    ROM Hack PS1/2 Translation Venus & Braves English Translation Project - PS2

    Some progress since last time. I finally found the graphics for the title screen with the buttons for New Game, Continue and Options. I applied an initial translation for testing purposes and it works. I'm now applying the game's font to stay true to the original. If you want to know the...

    Hey everyone, I just wanted to share my current project: an English translation for Namco's Project Venus or Venus & Braves: The Witch and the Goddess and the Prophecy of Destruction. It is a sequel to Seven - The Cavalry Troop of Molmorth that was recently machine-translated (but not to the...

    Hardware Homebrew Others Great year for the MiSTer FPGA project so far

    I just went down a rabbit hole about how it worked and it's truly impressive. I had heard of it back in the day without paying too much attention but now I know why it got so much attention. I'm not a fan of the DIY aspect as it seems tedious but I can see the appeal for tinkerers. But I also...

    PC port for The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap gets its first playable build

    That's awesome! It's incredible to believe that people will do tremendous work for free to release a finished port with so many options. Great work!

    The Neo Geo AES+ is a modern take on classic hardware with no emulation in the picture

    Never thought I would see that in my lifetime and once more, I'm too broke to get it haha! Nevertheless, I'm happy for those who can get it. It's a brilliant piece of history and this cross-compatibility is such a good idea. Even the price is somewhat right.

    Bonjour

    Thanks! I'd say the PS2 is my favourite console of all time although I have a soft spot for the SNES, Game Boy and Neo Geo. Right now I'm playing a lot on PS5 and Switch. How about you?

    Nintendo announces price increases across the board, set to come into effect from September in western regions

    This is crazy. For an older millennial like me who grew up with console prices decreasing over time, it's insane to see prices increasing instead. PS5, Xbox, Steam Deck (granted only in Asia) and now the Switch 2. Come on! And correct me if I'm wrong but isn't Nintendo getting a refund from the...

    Forza Horizon 6 Files Reportedly Leak Through Steam Ahead of Release

    For an industry that boasts about its secrecy, there has been a lot of leaks. Or maybe it's just an overjoyous intern that pressed the wrong button.

    Twilight Princess PC port "Dusk" gets its first release

    My favourite 3D Zelda hands-down. That is very impressive. Even more so when you know they went the decompilation route. Hopefully will be able to try this one out soon!

    Bonjour

    Hello there, Tony here. Just wanted to introduce myself before contributing. I'm a 39-year-old autistic gamer and now developer building tools for the community at large (from on-the-fly translation to centralized emulators update). I've playing since I was 5 first on my cousin's Amiga then my...
