Added 8-Bit Xmas 2020 and Action 53, Volume 4, as well as updated links for Project Blue.

Moved a few games from available to defunct (and some defunct back to available), including Brilliant Pebbles and Tower Defense 1990 because Retro Wonder Workers' website has been down and does not appear to be coming back. If you know otherwise, please let me know. I'll reach out to Ryan to confirm if I can.

Doodle World for NES has just launched on Kickstarter!

Tab tasted like Coke but somehow you tasted more neutral flavor that cola. Then again I was raised on a Tab knockoff called Rally. I can’t complain too much about generic sodas though, I recently tried Safeway’s Dr. Dynamite and like it. My best friend and I love to joke about Stop & Shop’s more ambiguous Zazz. They used to have abandoned carts in the aisles for marked down products rather than dedicate a shelf to it, and in the summer we would find full carts of individual cans of Zazz.

For me on mobile, the header is different between default and dark mode, with dark mode not having the main menu allowing me to browse.

It's hard for people to care if you aren't clear what you want the thread to be. You've suggested a thread for people to post their own Kickstarters, for people to share what they've backed, ongoing projects. Is it only for gaming-related Kickstarters, or can authors do their books? What is the criteria, and is this a thread where other people are sharing Kickstarters or are you maintaining a central list and updating it? EnigMog has a thread that provides updates on homebrew Kickstarters (though he hasn't updated it since April), and the homebrew section generally has new games, allowing devs to provide their own Kickstarter and other progress updates.

Woo I hit 1000 posts, LEVEL UP. Celebratory bump

Saw this listing on eBay if you’re interested: https://www.ebay.com/itm/114394903165

Is there a reason you posted this same blog post 117 times?

Added Super Sudoku for the SNES from Raphnet. It is out of stock right now, but they are preparing another batch of carts for later this month.

Added The Tenth Knight for NES, which will be Sly Dog's next entry in the Candelabra series.

Quest Arrest is sold out for now, however the developer has expressed plans to release an additional run of the game in the near future and I will maintain the link since it will be good again soon.

It's in the original post, under category 1 (games available for pre-order), and the gameboy subcategory.

Added pre-order link for Super Jetpak DX, a Gameboy game from Pocket Pixel Design.

Revised link for Dead Tomb on NES, now available for pre-order from Limited Run Games.

LRG's followers on social media are the worst. I've noticed several types of annoying LRG followers on twitter, though these types aren't limited to LRG fans. There are the people who respond to a post about a particular game with "when are you going to make X?" Are you seriously derailing a promotional thread for one game to complain that it isn't another? I'm excited about X game too, but replying to a promo for a different game to make that complaint is a dick move. There are people who just write "this will be MINE". Sure ok, buy it when it's available. This one annoys me because it pops up even when something isn't for sale. I post pictures of some of my homebrew games on twitter when they come in the mail, and people comment "GIVE IT TO ME!" Well you put it so eloquently, sure why not? Please stranger on the internet, take this item in my collection it took months or years to find. Hell there are people on this forum who do it to each other; do you really think anyone wants to sell to you when you "playfully" harass another member about selling one of their treasured games? And the ones I loathe the most are the surprised folks who say "wow, what a great new idea, finally a new NES game!" These people also ask questions that are clearly stated in the OP itself or on the page that it linked to. I've noticed this weird trend lately where people are either excited because something new happened or sad because "no one is doing X", when in reality they were too lazy to take a cursory look around and confirm that was it even true. Even if you're not a part of the homebrew community and were just some fan of LRG modern-gen releases, if you followed them to ANY degree, then you'd know that not only have they released several NES games, homebrew and re-releases, but they JUST fulfilled Mall Brawl orders, so now you look especially stupid for posting something that could have been avoided if you had just looked at the website of the company you love so much. Anyway, that was an old man rant about LRG followers and similar complaints about dumbass folks on the twitter.

We've decided that you may play on any difficulty, and posted a chart that displays how points/extra lives are affected by difficulty. However passwords and continues will not be allowed.

Doodle World has posted an updated Kickstarter launch date: Wednesday, September 9th

Some exciting news on the chiptune front, Catskull Electronics is asking for submissions for a YM2020 Genesis chiptune compilation.

Bump

Depends on the price’s neighborhood. I get dollar discounts from cheaper listings, which in my opinion should get larger discounts seems my impression is that such games are supposed to be priced to move. Sure $1 off a $12 game is something, but if I added that to my watchlist rather than purchase outright, I’m clearly waiting for something to catch my eye. Larger value items would require larger discounts just because a discount has to be larger to be noticeable, but I think that scale allows for more wiggle room.

Dead Tomb, an NES game developed by CollectorVision will be getting the Limited Run Games treatment, with limited pre-orders Friday.
