I've recently stumbled upon some archival video from Getty Images that showcase a few of the robots Namco made in the early 80s. This first clip features the "Mikoshi Bearers" riding on unicycles, the "Powerful Robot" lifting weights, and the "Barrel-Riding Clown" doing an act. #namco #vghistory

what about a Nakatomi Plaza email
TIMELINE SYNCHRONICITY: a post by @dcpierson replying to @veryimportant.lawyer ("I feel like Covid tripled the amount of acts that are apparently huge, called like “hans.” but are three guys, and I will never find out about until I open, like, an Irving Plaza email") re-posted by @mintcaketime, immediately next to @jasondashbailey reposting a post from @vghistory depicting the game over screen of Die Hard for Commodore 64 (1990) (original alt-text: "alan rickman as hans gruber, the villian from die hard a graphical portrait of his face in commodore 64 palette). large white text font on black below: "you lose, cowboy.") I hope this wasn't too confusing

It's well known that Pokémon creator Satoshi Tajiri and artist Ken Sugimori collaborated on "Game Freak", the doujin gaming magazine from the 80s. After reflecting upon their love for video games, I now wonder if Red's design was inspired by the M.C. of Game Center Arashi? #vghistory #pokemon
The cover for Vol. 17 of Game Center Arashi (ゲームセンターあらし) by Mitsuru Sugaya, published in 1983. The protagonist, Arashi Ishino, wears a red cap, a red jacket with white sleeves and blue jeans. Key art of "Red" from Pocket Monsters Red/Green (1996). He also wears a red cap, a red jacket with white sleeves and blue jeans.

When the timeline stars align
Screenshot of two concurrent posts on the Bluesky timeline. First is a post by @caseyexplosion explaining the misconception regarding the authenticity of trans women’s breasts and how they develop the same as cis women’s. Immediately after is a post by @vghistory featuring a 2002 ad for for the game Dead or Alive 3. The ad depicts the ample bosom of a woman’s 3D rendered chest with the text “FAKE NEVER LOOKED SO REAL.”
