In 1991, I was a fresh new employee on the Mega CD dev team.
At the time, hardware-based rotation and scaling of graphics was something the Super Nintendo was known for. We finally made it happen on a SEGA system too—and I was so happy about it! 🙌
I was the only artist on the team, so I created the graphics needed for development. This test image was one of them.
Being the youngest on the team, my coworkers really looked after me. So they even made this awesome version just for me. 😊
Seeing this again after all these years brings back so many memories. I’m really grateful for those days, and for the amazing people I got to work with. ❤️

Disney was developing an interactive map for their Disney World guests - on Nintendo DS! It never entered production because guests refused to beta test it. 😂

We're urgently fundraising for an unreleased games console from the big three game companies.
There's less than 5 of these known, none have ever been preserved let alone had it's history shared.
This fundraiser is time sensitive, we only have one chance to secure this.

I've made a fork of PCSX2 that supports the JPN final, and both Goemon Zero prototypes. With this, the games should run fine on emulator: github.com/Sazpaimon/pcsx2/r…

Looking for differences in the Mortal Kombat proto dumped by @HiddenPalaceOrg yesterday. Who would have thought Goro's loincloth would need such scrutiny?
