Super Mario 64 to Get New Level Pack from Homebrew Developers
August 1st, 2015 Carl Williams Super Mario 64 was a seminal release, it was one of the last times that a console and a launch title sold 1:1 at launch, and it was an instant classic.

Solve the Grandfather Paradox in Doom within Doom Mod
July 18th, 2015 Carl Williams Okay, this is a rather funny/unique mod to be writing about, especially after the announcement that a “selfie stick” was added to id Software’s classic Doom title.

Metroid to Receive Unofficial Prequel, Rogue Dawn, on Nintendo Entertainment System
May 19th, 2015 Carl Williams To say that Metroid is a big name title for Nintendo is quite the understatement.

Snatcher Being Ported to Nintendo Virtual Boy by Homebrew Developer
April 19th, 2015 Carl Williams Snatcher, the digital comic that simply did not take off in North America like Konami would have liked. Honestly, I cannot feign not understanding why it didn’t sell well. First it was only available for an add-on device, the Sega CD, which did not exactly set sales records in the United States.
