A screenshot from the final room of Hydlide II: Shine of Darkness (1985), courtesy of this page: http://kako.com/blog/?p=72771 In the centre of the room lies a large crystal, the source of the evil power plaguing Fairy Land. Varalys, the final boss of Hydlide 1, lingers nearby, demoted to endgame normal enemy status. A text box reads thus: 「よくここまできたな。ほめてやろう。わたしこそ゛かみ゛。ひとは、ＥＶＩＬ―ＣＲＹＳＴＡＬとよんでいるがね。」 "I would praise you for coming this far. I am God. But to the people, I am known as the Evil Crystal."

Two excerpted Discord messages: "hello! I'm already getting more into Rev2 and saw RRC mentioned in the newest pattheflip article so thought I'd swing by and see what's up" "I'm only here because I heard there was a melty tourney taking place." Then it's the "The illusion... of free choice" template, with the cow staring down two corridors leading to the same destination. The left one is labeled Rev 2; the right, French Bread. The destination is labeled with Lex's post commanding simply, "You will join rrc."

If you're wondering where GUN SURVIVOR 4: BIOHAZARD: HEROES NEVER DIE is: I respect you.

A screenshot from Super Metroid in Archipelago. During the battle with Phantoon, Samus is in the middle of her turn-around animation, so she's facing the camera. A text window in the centre of the screen reads, "You received Super Missiles from Gusto?Peliado."

It's the header for my "Nintendo Switch 2025 Year in Review," with two counter-scrolling marquees of game icons. It says I played 9 games for 85 hours. But that isn't enough games to fill out the marquee, so there's a comical repetition of icons for things like the Nintendo Switch Online apps; The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles, which I loaded two or three times in trying to get through the first scene of the first game without getting distracted; and R-Gear, a one-stage demo of a cancelled Taito arcade shmup.

The cover of Marukatsu PC Engine Issue 31 (July 1991), illustrated by 佐々木 晃 Sasaki Akira (alias TONG KING SHOW). A group of funny animal people in Victorian dress are hiding behind a corner of a brick building. The bunny woman is dressed like Sherlock Holmes and is peeking curiously around the corner, whilst the gorilla man dressed as a Bobby and the buffalo man in a Bowler hat are nervously gesturing for her to be silent to avoid detection. The colours are tinted blue to indicate a nighttime scene.
