i still love the master system

jeff ranting about the pause button being on the *console itself* on the sega master system, and how sometimes it paused the game but some later games used it to trigger a status screen and that meant you had to sit close to the console 👌👌👌👌

sega mark III 😌

"you get home and HBO is there, and you're like, did you know there's full frontal nudity in Revenge Of The Nerds? and you're like, well we're watching *that*" - Jeff Gerstmann recalling the "latchkey kid" era

"Rambo asking if we get to win this time. Not if we keep catching bullets like that, RAMBO. JOHN." - Jeff Gerstmann, dying again in Rambo for the Sega Master System

"Oh knife man! AGH KNIFE MAN!" - Jeff Gerstmann

it's a lot less versatile. which is what makes it all that more challenging to compose for and makes it more characteristic. which are the things i enjoy

i don't care what anyone says i like the SN76489 sound over the 2A03

"Okay. Now we just have to not di-FWUUGGHHH" - Jeff Gerstmann, immediately getting killed in Rambo for the Sega Master System

"I got L. Which means I've got length now. On these bullets." - Jeff Gerstmann, 2022

i already have a healthy cache of links for this and i don't even have any code for the website itself done yet !!! I'm excited!! this is going to be a neat corner of the web, i hope

god bless the sega master system

today we composed a game track and put new things in our tech page and made an icon for one of them and started working on a link aggregator making a banner for it!!! Impostor syndrome what more do you want from us

i'm doing stuff. i'm being productive. the noticeable markers might not be ther ebut we're doing stuff, brain. you can shut up now

i'm happy for trans fighting game fans worldwide but i do not care for the icon i associate relentlessly with 4chan to be flooding my timeline today

i should start a link aggregator like in4mador. just an interesting link in the internet per week or something. you can submit suggestions but they're all hand picked by me. i think that would be a nice thing to bring back from the early web

sure i can just use old phpbb or whatever, i just feel like writing my own stuff from scratch to fully grok what it does and also as an exercise

i would love to have the actual concentration to do that one day

the urge is to make a whole forum software from scratch that works on modern linux and renders HTML friendly to older (win98) browsers but the actual focus and will is not there

would it kill you to include an "up one folder" button
