Lans_Tartare and Rushin got in touch with Orochinagi to show their works commemorating Neo Geo’s 20th anniversary:

It’s an interesting, western, yet European variant of the SD style.  Obviously I’m digging any Shermie art but check out this Vice for some wowsers!  Really, really nice work!  Hope to see more work from this talent.

I apologize if you don’t get the reference in the title, but here we are again, less than a month away from another release of Final Fantasy.  And Square Enix, churning ever so quickly on its hype machine, has blessed us with the second North American trailer of its storied franchise.  This one was supposed [...]

Categorized Under: Featured, Gaming

Taito Type x2 has been emulated / hacked / bootlegged.  What does this mean to us?  Not much.
SonicTempest reports:
It’s not so much an emulator as a loader. The Type-X2 hardware is already basically an x86 PC running Windows XP embedded. The only special things are obviously the specialized hardware as well as a hardware dongle [...]
