  1. 🎮📚 Ah, the riveting world of eight-year-old Nintendo DS programming #guides, because why play games when you can write a #DocBook manual on them! 🙄🕹️ This epic journey of revision history is almost as thrilling as reading a list of paint drying times. 🕰️✨

  2. I just sold my copy of the #NintendoDS game #RhythmHeaven. I owned the game for about 15 years. I know so, because I kept the receipt (I have owned it almost exactly 15 years). This game that I bought for roughly $16 just sold for $46. Damn, talk about appreciation.

  3. Finally took some time and played through the first #PhoenixWright game on #NintendoDS. Had a great time with it! Fun stories, fun characters, loved all the anime pixel art. I am usually not into #VisualNovel games, but this one captivated me, and even challenged me! I bought the DS cart, but ended up just playing via #emulation on my phone, since its almost entirely a touch based game. It played perfectly and worked great in a vertical layout.

  4. If you're ever under the false impression to have a reasonably fast gaming PC.. just go ahead and try to compress 400GB of stuff into a WinRAR archive.

    This will take a while... :surprised_pikachu:

  5. X-Men the Official Game with Alex Zalben (Comic Book Club)

    Listen up, mutation enthusiasts and multi-platform adventurers, because this week on Play Comics we’re strapping on our Kevlar suits and diving straight into the bewildering, beast-infested, cross-console chaos of X-Men: The Official Game! We’re talking about the 2006 game that launched on practically every system known to mankind (GBA, GameCube, Nintendo DS, PS2, Xbox, and Xbox 360. Seriously, did they forget a platform?), which based the story nominally on the third X-Men film from Fox. You know, the one that showed us what happens when Professor Xavier and Magneto finally decided to outsource their beef settlement to a video game developer.

    This particular romp through Marvel’s merry mutant universe was brought to you by the folks who looked at a film featuring Wolverine, Nightcrawler, and Iceman and thought, “What if we made this game SLIGHTLY different on each platform?” It’s like they were challenged to see just how elastic the definition of ‘the same game’ could be, and frankly, the results are beautifully inconsistent. The story was co-written by Chris Claremont (yes, THAT Chris Claremont) and Zak Penn, and it featured voice acting from the actual film cast, which means you got Hugh Jackman’s growl in your living room, your handheld, and probably also your neighbors’ living rooms at 2 AM.

    Joining us to make sense of this portable and stationary pandemonium is none other than Alex Zalben from Comic Book Club, a weekly live talk show about comics that’s been running since 2006, performed at every major comic convention you can think of, written up in the New York Times more than once, and hosted literally hundreds of guests with more swagger than most podcasts muster in a lifetime. Alex is a writer, editor, and podcaster who knows his way around both four-color storytelling and video game adaptations, making him the perfect guide to help us determine whether this cross-generational, cross-console adventure managed to capture what makes the X-Men actually work, or if it just made us wish we could teleport away from our screens.

    So sync up your Danger Room protocols, pick your favorite handheld or home console, and get ready for an episode that’s guaranteed to be more chaotic than a Sentinel factory explosion and infinitely more confusing than trying to figure out why THIS game exists on THAT console!

    Learn such things as:

    • Who thought it was a good idea to put this on so many consoles?
    • Is it possible to get that team feeling when you’re playing solo?
    •  Is it better to look at this game as a sequel to the 2nd movie, or a prequel to the 3rd movie?
    • And so much more!

    You can find Alex on YouTube @ComicBookClub, BlueSky @comicbookclub and of course Comic Book Club Live.

    If you want to hear Chris talk with Karrington Martin about the lessons we learned from children’s media and how crazy it is that we’re supposed to just forget about that now that we’re adults, then is probably something you should check out.

  7. Spider-Man Battle for New York with Jarett Tyree (Has to Do With Spider-Man, I Think)

    Welcome, web-slinging console warriors and handheld hop-scotchers! Prepare your cartridges and grab your controllers, because this week on Play Comics we’re diving into the gloriously chaotic streets of New York with Spider-Man: Battle for New York, the 2005/2006 portable powerhouse that took Brian Michael Bendis and Mark Bagley’s Ultimate Spider-Man universe and somehow crammed all of Manhattan’s mayhem into a GBA and DS-sized punch-up bonanza. Because apparently, someone looked at one of the most beloved comic runs of the 2000s and thought, “You know what this needs? A brawler where Spidey spends most of his time frantically hammering the same three buttons while dodging increasingly ridiculous villain attacks.”

    Released across Game Boy Advance and Nintendo DS, this wasn’t your typical web-slinging adventure—it was more like someone distilled all of Ultimate Spider-Man’s most explosive moments into a side-scrolling arcade experience where the city itself becomes just as much of an enemy as Green Goblin ever was. With a roster of villains pulled straight from the comics and more “beat stuff up” objectives than you can shake a web at, this game proved that sometimes the best way to honor a beloved comic series is to completely reinvent what it means to be Spider-Man.

    This week, we’re absolutely thrilled to welcome the phenomenally knowledgeable Jarrett Tyree from Has To Do With Spider-Man I Think, who brings an encyclopedic understanding of all things Arachnid and animated to help us untangle whether this game managed to capture the kinetic energy of Bendis’s run or if it just left our webbing all tangled in the wrong places. Jarrett’s the kind of Spider-expert who can probably explain exactly why this game makes the choices it does, while also gently reminding us that sometimes video game adaptations are more “inspired by” than “faithful to” the source material.

    So strap in your web-shooters, prepare for some serious button-mashing mayhem, and get ready for an episode that explores whether this dual-platform adaptation is a hidden gem of portable gaming or just another case of “well, we had to do SOMETHING with this license.” Let’s see if Battle for New York is worth defending!

    Learn such things as:

    • How connected to the actual comic storylines is this game, or does it just borrow character names and call it a day?
    • Does an action-packed comic run actually translate better into a side-scrolling brawler than into an open-world adventure?
    • Why do handheld games keep trying to squeeze console-sized epicness into screen sizes that make text completely illegible?
    • And so much more!

    You can find Jarett as part of Has to do With Spider-Man, I think on BlueSky @smitpod and of course the Has to do With Spider-Man, I Think website.
