    Zippo says Sonic heroes remake might happed

    Sonic Heroes on PC was released on Windows in 2004 and running on an engine called Renderware that was originally developed by the developers of the Burnout series 20 years ago. I highly doubt that an engine created that long ago will play nicely on 2024 hardware so chances are it's easier to...

    Nintendo shares details about Charles Martinet's new role of 'Mario Ambassador' in new video

    Sometimes you have to hang up the microphone otherwise you'll end up like the voice actress for Marge Simpson in the newer Simpsons episodes. At least they didn't make him record hundreds of hours of additional voice clips so they could reuse them over and over again without paying him a penny.

    Microsoft to shut down Xbox 360 Store next year

    I'm guesssing all the titles have been dumped and archived by this point. There's still some games like the HD version of Guardian Heroes that still haven't been released anywhere else apart from the 360.

    Nintendo is remaking Super Mario RPG

    I think it would be poetic if ex Alpha Dream developers were the ones behind this remake because some of the people behind the original SNES SMRPG went on to form Alpha Dream.

    Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time remake is still in the "conception" phase three and a half years after its reveal

    So the XIII remaster is okay to be pushed onto the public but PoP remake is when Ubisoft realises that cheap outsourcing isn't always the answer.

    [UPDATE] Metal Gear Solid 3 remake announced for PS5, Xbox Series X|S and Steam; MGS Master Collection vol. 1 also coming this Autumn

    I wonder if they'll still use the assets from that pachinko game 7 years ago.

    Gaming preservation group "Forest of Illusion" abruptly closes down

    I always kept thinking that one day FOI will drop the ultimate prototype out of the blue. The N64 Mother 3 build.

    Editorial The best video game trailers of all time?

    This trailer was one of Bioshock's Infinite's trailers that got me to buy the game on launch. None of the scene happens in the game at all.

    Anbernic launches its new OLED RG505 retro handheld

    Still got my RG350M to scratch that SNES/GBA itch. I feel like GC full compatibility is still out of reach for now.

    Ubisoft refunds all pre-orders of Prince of Persia: Sands of Time Remake, promises game is still in development

    I wouldn't be surprised if the XIII remake shitshow caused Ubi Soft to reconsider this. Sounds like they never backed up the source codes or the source code itself is just not compatible with modern engines they want to port with. Just surprised they didn't just code a quick and dirty emulator...

    All in one solution to translate Japanese manga?

    I found some old untranslated manga that I saved in the hope that one day I would either learn Japanese to figure out what it’s talking about or rely on machine translation in the future to get a rough translation. So far I found that pointing a camera with Google translate can help a little...

    GoldenEye 007 official remaster announced by Rare, for Xbox and Switch

    The planets really aligned if Eon, Microsoft and Nintendo came to an agreement to have this released. Just like Banjo Kazooie, it seems like Switch version is basic but Xbox version is the enhanced version so here's hoping we'll get more Rareware N64 games.

    Nintendo Direct scheduled for September 13th, 2022

    Since the NSO launched on this month several years ago, I wouldn't be surprised if Nintendo announces something like Gameboy games or even Gamecube games for their service just to get people to renew.

    The SEGA Genesis Mini 2 will be released in the west this October

    Still not keen on the idea of over $100 for a mini console but the PC Engine Mini was sold at that price point before so I guess including CD games means bumping up the specs to use bigger but pricier storage chips. Snatcher has to be an inevitable announcement since Konami seems to love mining...
