This is actually the sequel to the "The Earth Fighter Rayieza" ( 地球戦士ライーザ) from 1988.

Gotta say, this section of the site is looking good!

What comes to mind when you think of how COVID has affected gaming and the industry❓

I've just learned that Romhacking.net is planning on removing their HomeBrew section entirely, probably during the next major update to the site. Sad, sad news.

🐘 The Airavatesvara Temple Kumbakonam, India, contains a well-known optical illusion.

🐂 What do you see: a bull or an elephant?

Cool fact: Did you know that "illusion" literally means "in-play"?

I have a lot of , some , some . I find that I often go to use my and the buttons are mapped wrong for whatever reason.

Does recommend any software for managing button mappings? Mostly interested in Windows but cross-platform is always nice. Would be cool to not have to reconfigure every time I set up a new PC!

I think bars should have nights; people take turns playing whatever they are good at on a projector for the whole bar to watch. Get a drag queen to be "Master of Controllers" describing the action and calling up new players.
