Games, movies, hardware, physical media, design, cats, and the memories attached to all of it. Usually somewhere between retro nostalgia, RGB cables, movie rabbit holes, and whatever I’m working on for Nostalgic Pixel. nostalgicpixel.com

This is a screenshot of my Stream setup for Darius 2.

Picture of PVM CRTs 20" and 8" and OLED 65" with my MiSTER SuperStation 1 running on all at the same time.

Setting up testing my new RGB cables for PSX. Playing Castlevania Symphony of the Night.

Here is a side by side image of Sam Huntington in Detroit Rock City and Paul Dano to the right. I thought they where the same person for decades thinking that kid from Detroit Rock City made it big.

Thumbnail for a retro gaming video about Christmas NiGHTS into Dreams, the holiday edition of the classic Sega Saturn game. The image features NiGHTS flying across a blue winter sky with snowflakes, using festive colors and Saturn-era typography. Designed in the Nostalgic Pixel style, the thumbnail highlights this rare Sega holiday release and its significance in retro gaming history.

Screenshot of the PlayStation 5 Silent Hill 2 Remake home screen. A fog-covered street with a close-up portrait of Mary in grayscale, with James facing away in the mist below. UI shows “Continue where you left off — Wood Side Apartments | 10%.”

A photo of five versions of Silent Hill 2 on a shelf: the original PlayStation 2 release, the Xbox version, a Greatest Hits PS2 copy, the PS3 HD Collection, and the new PS5 remake case. The shelf is dark with a horror-themed green and red lighting effect, and “Nostalgic Pixel” is watermarked at the bottom.

A photo of two custom game case mockups: Silent Hill presented as a Sega Saturn release with a tiled wall and red handprint motif, and Silent Hill 2 presented as a Japanese Dreamcast release with a dark, ghostly portrait design. Both cases sit upright on a shelf with a black background illuminated by soft light, evoking an alternate-timeline collection display.

A third-person gameplay screenshot from Lost Planet showing a lone snow-suited soldier trudging through deep snow during a blizzard. Industrial fuel tanks and scattered wreckage sit in the distance under whiteout conditions. A life bar, thermal energy meter, and weapon HUD elements appear on screen.

A Gears of War 2 gameplay screenshot showing COG soldiers taking cover behind a barricade while a nearby derrick explodes, sending debris and fire into the air. The scene captures the intense, gritty atmosphere of the early mission.

A screenshot of the Xbox Series X game library filtered to Xbox 360 and original Xbox titles. Gears of War 2 is highlighted in the grid, surrounded by classic games like Psychonauts, Otogi, Crackdown, Bully, and Oddworld: Munch’s Oddysee. The interface shows the Games menu on the left and the full grid of retro titles on the right.

A photo of a collection of Xbox 360 games arranged on a wooden shelf, with Gears of War 2 displayed prominently in the center. Surrounding it are cases for Bioshock, Halo 3, Alan Wake, Dead Rising, and Crackdown. An Xbox controller sits on the lower shelf beneath the games. The image has a green gradient background and a Nostalgic Pixel watermark in the bottom-right corner.

A cat sits in silhouette, watching a large TV screen showing a scene from Escape from Alcatraz. Two men in prison uniforms sit on outdoor steps talking, with other inmates gathered around them in the background. The bright film image contrasts with the dark room and the cat’s outline.

Screenshot of the Special World map from SMB4 Super Mario World on the SNES. The screen shows the “SPECIAL” title spelled using controller button icons, with multiple level nodes completed. Used to show progress toward clearing the Special levels during the stream.

This is a screenshot of Mario waiting on the Start Screen about to fall asleep waiting for me to press start kind of funny timing.

This is a screen shot of Super Mario 64 Mario has Bowser by the tail.

This is a screenshot of the twitch stream for Super Mario Bros. 4 Super Mario World on the Analogue Pocket via Open FPGA. I am on the right bottom corner holding the Super Famicom cartridge of the game. I am playing the Super Nintendo version in celebration of its up incoming 35th Birthday this 21st.

I loved it so much I saw it the next day and dragged a bunch of friends to see. it. I couldn't tell them the full story until they had seen it. Since I didn't want to spoil it for them and with spoilers out there you had to see if fast without being spoiled since it was spoiled on national tv.

This image is of 2 Movie ticket stubs from seeing Fight Club. One is the matinee and the other is the evening showtime I dragged more friends to go with me. Also this is of the inside on my DVD of Fight Club.

They Are California Games Surfing on Atari Lynx, Lumines, Night Trap, Loco Roco, Katamari Damacy, SMB4 Super MArio World, Zelda 3, Resident Evil REmake, Jet Set Radio Future, Castlevania Symphony of the Night.
