Ben Heck's Nintendo-Playstation Prototype

Famous retro console modder Benjamin Heckendorn got his hands on the priceless Sony SNES-CD prototype. After examining its components, Ben Heck makes some repairs to get it running better than we’ve ever seen it before.

Ohio State Marching Band – Hollywood Blockbusters

The Ohio State University football team has a 20 game winning streak and is still somehow only 4th in the polls. One thing’s for sure, though. We have the Best Damn Band in the Land.

One of these days, I’ll have to dig up some videos from my band days at Westerville North. Band was awesome.

Jet Set Radio Live

20 years ago, Jet Set Radio had us jamming to hyperactive DJ mixes as we fight the establishment and avoid getting beat up by police. The world really needs more right now, but with only one official sequel, new fans are carrying on the legacy. Jet Set Radio Live streams several Jet Set Radio-inspired radio mixes 24/7. Today is SiIvaGunner's DJ Professor K Takeover featuring music from Hideki Naganuma and Sega games expertly mashed up with their usual memes. Stay safe out there.

Jonathan Landis (@hitstun) retweeted: ⚠️ THE @GiIvaSunner 'DJ Professor K TAKEOVER 🔴 LIVE STREAM' has BEGUN!!! You can visit jetsetradio.live to be redirected or visit it directly at youtube.com/watch?v=c-yTT7… Enjoy yourselves & stay funky ya'll!

PiNe – Runaway

Of course there's floating stuff. You know how long I've resisted posting all these "Floating Pine" images? This is as close as I'll let it get.

地球から家出したい

chanomach – ナナメから世界を見たって、何もいいことはない ／ Enjoy correctly.

Hi, Internet! I apologize; I’ve been pretty glitchy lately and things have been crazy, what with the weddings and holidays and conventions and all. My cross-posting pipeline is broken so I have to write the same posts four times. That’s too much work!

My stream is erratic, too, but I’ve been experimenting with restream.io to stream to Mixer, Twitch, Smashcast, and Facebook all at once, usually on Friday nights. Once the cartridge is reseated and things work again, I’ll try to relaunch the blog and the stream. These experiments have been fun, though.

Spruce Creek Fly-In Community

It’s 2015; where are our flying cars? In his search for flying cars, James May visited Spruce Creek, Florida. This village treats airplanes like cars, parked in garages and taxied right down the street to the local runway. If every town was this well adapted to small planes, we’d all be flying from place to place, right?

By the way, my Friday night stream has moved to Hitbox! I’m attacking games like Super Back to the Future II, Panorama Cotton, and Sayonara Umihara Kawase, so stop by and chat!

Stéphane Picq – Fractalian Space

30-Day Video Game Music Challenge (Super Hard Mode) Day 28: Music that makes you nostalgic From MegaRace (DOS, 1993)

My first CD-ROM game. It came with our Windows 3.11 computer. MegaRace isn’t very good, but it gave us Lance Boyle and some early 90s CG videos that we get to drive on.

GeekNights – Pokemon Go: Initial Thoughts

Pokémon GO is getting my whole groups of my friends outside with Pokévision on their phones. That’s great, but as GeekNights podcast explains, there isn’t any skill or strategy in the game right now. Everything is a grind that takes exponentially longer as you go on. Battles are won by whoever has spent the most time playing the game, and that’s not going to change when more features are added. At least Ingress has teamwork going for it. Watch out for Team Rocket?

I almost made a post without an image or a video in it. This post would have looked weird without one. Always be aware of your surroundings, folks.

(Skip to 29:58, a little over halfway through, for the Pokémon GO part of the podcast. I had a button for this in the Wordpress post but it won't work with Tumblr's weird audio player.)
