Mortal Kombat was a major success when it landed in arcades in Fall of 1992. Plans were quickly made to port the game over to the Sega Genesis and Super Nintendo, with heavily modified ports also coming to GameBoy and Game Gear. The hyper violent and blood-filled game would run headfirst into Nintendo’s family friendly policies and restrictions.⁠ ⁠ At the time, the ESRB did not yet exist and each publisher set their own guidelines. Nintendo insisted the developer remove graphic content for the SNES version, replacing blood with gray “sweat” that didn’t pool on the ground and removing or changing fatalities. Sega on the other hand, simply asked the game to fit their loose definitions of MA-13 (the equivalent of a PG13 film). ⁠ ⁠ Developer Midway was nervous about the games marketability with relaxed violence, With Nintendo unwilling to compromise on their requirements. Sega had more wiggle room, and offered to allow the uncensored violence so long as it was optional. Midway saw this as a marketing opportunity with a word of mouth secret way to activate the games full violence. The team wanted a code that could be easy to remember, and settled on ABACABB, a nod to the album Abacab by the band Genesis, both an obvious reference to the platform, but also a code that could easily be punched into the Genesis 3-button controller.⁠ ⁠ Despite critical reviews leaning towards the higher quality visuals of the SNES version, the Genesis version with its full-gore obliterated the SNES version in sales, significantly closing the hardware sales gap that Nintendo had built up over the 16-bit generation. Nintendo immediately ordered a review of its internal processes so that Mortal Kombat II would arrive uncensored, but the damage had already been done, and many see the launch of Mortal Kombat as the true start of the 16-bit console wars as Sega was now a formidable rival to Nintendo.⁠ ⁠ #mortalkombat #nintendo #sega #genesis #snes #16bit #fightinggames #streetfighter #evo #midway #mk #fatality #gameboy #gamegear #retrogames #arcade #gamers #gaming #videogames #gamersofig #instagamers #gamestagram #gamepast #gamingposts #gamingnews #gaminghistory #gamingfacts

Deadpool 🔴⚫️ Everyone knows I prefer DC 😝 but I make two exceptions for Marvel and they are The Punisher and Deadpool. In 2013 Deadpool launched on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 and became a classic hit with fans of the series, featuring violence, mental instability, and numerous fourth wall breaks. It recieved mixed reviews, but fans like myself found enjoyment in the game. Fortunately, Deadpool was re-released in 2015 for the next generation of consoles! Have you donned the red and black suit and taken to Deadpool? ______________________________ 🎮 TAGS 🎮 @xbox @xboxanz @xboxambassadors @xboxgamepass @xboxp3 @rumblethefish @bigdyllangaming @cocofatale @marcusoft365 @tony.mclovin.games @xboxcollection @tufsig_collects @ebgamesau @missdeusgeek @ms.xbx @arcane.bunny @shadowsteve91 @retrodomski @marvel @deadpool ______________________________ 🎮 HASHTAGS 🎮 #xbox #xboxoriginal #xbox360 #xboxone #xboxones #xboxonex #xboxseriesx #xboxseriess #xboxaustralia #xboxanz #gaming #gamer #gamersofig #gamersofinstagram #videogames #videogamecollection #gamingcollection #controller #xboxcontroller #xboxonecontroller #collection #collector #console #consolegamer #consolegaming #marvel #marvelcomics #deadpool

While not the first video game console, the Atari 2600 dominated sales during the early days of the home gaming business. The console popularized microprocessor-based hardware and the system itself was fairly cost efficient when it came to the equivalent personal computer hardware. Here are the technical specs of the Atari 2600, released in November 1982, compared to the specs of the current most powerful gaming hardware, the Xbox Series X. Atari 2600 CPU: 1.19 MHz MOS Technology 6507 XBSX CPU: 8 core 3.8 GHz (~120k% increase in processing power when combined with GPU) Atari 2600 GPU: None XBSX GPU: AMD RDNA 2 - 1825MHz Gpu, 560Gb/s bandwidth. 10Gb Mem.

Vivian is a character who appears in the 2004 roleplaying game “Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door”. She initially appears as an enemy but later joins Mario’s party. Vivian is a transgender woman and one of the few Nintendo characters who is canonically trans. She has since been called one of the best LGBTQ+ characters in video games, though several media outlets have criticized how the character's recognition as transgender had changed between different localized versions of the game, particularly the English release. In the original Japanese release Vivivan is openly transgender and is mocked by her older sisters Marilyn and Beldam, who intentionally misgender her and call her transphobic slurs. Vivian joins Mario’s party after he befriends her and shows her kindness. At the end of the game, Vivian nearly confesses her love for Mario but backs down when she considers his relationship with Princess Peach. After the events of the game Vivian is shown having forgiven her sisters. When the game was localized into English and German, Vivian's status as a transwoman was not mentioned, and the transphobic insults changed into general insults. All other localizations kept the characters trans status and in the Italian version Vivian even explicitly states her pride in having transitioned into a woman. The English localization was heavily criticized for the change, relating it to the treatment of another Nintendo trans-character, Birdo, which also had any trans identity removed for English localization. Some critics did take exception to the original character writing in the Japanese localization, where the writing emphasized that she was trans and not fully female which is how the character identifies, as well as the use of gender topics for comedic purposes. For the 2024 re-release for Nintendo Switch, the English localization has been updated to match other versions of the game. #nintendo #papermario #vivian #lgbtq #trans #supermario #mariobros #gamecube #switch #roleplaying #rpg #mariorpg #smash #gamingposts #gamingnews #gaminghistory #gamingfacts #gamersofig #instagamers #gamestagram #instagramgaming #gamepast #pride

There's so many new faces here so I wanted to introduce myself! I'm Absurd Nerdz! A variety gamer, chaotic seamstress, and all around goofy nerd. I have ADHD so I will have a little bit of all the things I love here. I love table top RPGs, and am a coffee enthusiast! I too would choose a bear if asked, and I love to paint (although I'm not great at it) Books and manga are my favorite things to read, and I'm currently reading Lisa Jewel's None of This is True. Psychological horror books appeal to me more than a romance though, but I'd love to chat about them! I often forget to text people back and am trying to be more consistent on all social media platforms. But you know life happens. I promise to post as much as possible while always staying genuine. I promise to always be a dork, and show you what my hyperfixation is at the moment. Right now it's gouache. If you're into anime, gaming, manga, ttrpg, art, sewing or reading then you've already found a friend! Tell me about your latest obsession in the comments! Follow along for my Twitch journey and how I help others, also painting videos along the way. Also May is our fundraising campaign and I'm currently raising money with @stjudeplaylive and am close to hitting my goal! If you're interested in helping please let me know!

When EA made the leap from PC games to console games in the late 1980s they were shocked at the draconian licensing agreements that Japanese business entities Sega and Nintendo forced on their partners. Unlike the PC game industry, console manufacturers required devs to purchase dev kits and even then, the platform holder would determine how many carts would be manufactured, not the publisher. EA founder Trip Hawkins refused these terms and spent a year attempting to negotiate. Infamously, a Sega executive, fed up with the negotiations, told Hawkins he would have to reverse engineer the console himself if he wanted better terms. In 1989, EA formed a team led by Jim Nitchals and Steve Hayes. In less than a year the team had successfully reverse engineered the Genesis. Hawkins began reaching out to developers and offering them more favorable agreements. Sega had heard that EA had successfully reverse engineered the Genesis and began restructuring their licensing deals in anticipation of competing. Unbeknownst to Sega, every developer had turned down EA out of fear of Sega legal reprisal. Just days before CES 1990, when EA would show off its first Genesis games, Hawkins once again reached out to Sega to see if they could find mutual ground. Sega would cede manufacturing and distributing rights to EA and would allow them to publish as many games as they wanted. In exchange, Sega would take a small royalty fee from each game sold. EA would add a small yellow tag onto their game carts to differentiate them from Sega carts. EA games, now in charge of its own manufacturing, would go on to be the most successful publishers in the business, forcing Nintendo and Sony to adopt similar terms with their publishers. EA’s power move completely changed the relationship between platform holders, publishers, and developers. To this day Trip Hawkins considers this to be his greatest accomplishment in his career. #electronicarts #ea #sega #nintendo #genesis #segagenesis #retrogames #retro #madden #pcgaming #interesting #didyouknow #todayilearned #gamingposts #gamingnews #gaminghistory #gamingfacts #gamersofig #instagamers #gamestagram #instagramgaming #gaming #gamepast

The Ouya is an Android-based console released on June 25th, 2013. The console was funded through the site “Kickstarter” and would go on to be one of the website’s highest funded projects. Despite the excitement around the console's kickstarter campaign, the Ouya failed to find an audience post-launch and was a commercial failure.⁠ Ouya was designed to be an open source platform for Android-based games. The device runs a modified version of Android Jelly Bean with root access built in. The hardware can easily be opened up for additional modding and add-ons. Each Ouya is a fully functional dev kit, allowing any Ouya owner to also be a developer. Initially, all Ouya games were required to have a free-to-play model or demo, though this requirement was removed after launch.⁠ ⁠ Ouya launched a kickstarter in July, 2012 with a goal of raising $950k to finish development of the system, with backers receiving a console at launch with a minimum $100 pledge. The Ouya broke the site's record for best day-1 performance, blowing past its fundraising goal in just 8 hours. It would go on to be the site's 5th highest earning project in its history. ⁠ ⁠ At release Ouya was criticized for its low quality controller and lukewarm selection of titles, almost all low-effort ports of existing Android games with many not even bothering to remap the UI to the Ouya controller. Sales were light, selling just shy of 200k units. It’s best selling app “TowerFall” only crossed 7k installs. It was announced in April 2015 that Ouya was not able to consolidate its debt and would be selling the company, with CEO Julie Uhrman stepping down. Razer acquired the team and technology, folding them into the Forge TV project, itself discontinued in 2016. In May 2019, Razer released a statement that all Ouya services would be discontinued, and the app store and online services were turned off on June 25th, 2019.⁠ ⁠ #gamingposts #gamingnews #gaminghistory #gamingfacts #ouya #android #indiedev #retrohardware #towerfall #kickstarter #indiegogo #crowdfunding #tech #newtech #hardware #consoles #videogames #games #retrogames #opensource #google #gamersofig #gamestagram #instagamers #gaming #gamepast

Tony Hawk: Ride is a skateboarding video game developed by Robomodo and published by Activision. It was released in November, 2009 for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and Nintendo Wii. Unlike other games in the Tony Hawk series, Ride utilized a skateboard “deck” that players stood on to mimic actual skateboarding. The game was a massive critical and commercial failure and alongside the spin-off/sequel, Tony Hawk: Shred, caused Activision to halt all work on the franchise for several years. Activision had been searching for ways to revitalize the Tony Hawk franchise after 5 years of declining sales. In May of 2008, during a quarterly earnings call with stock holders, the publisher spoke about the need to push the IP into a new direction, citing the success of the Wii’s motion controller as an example of gamers looking for more tactile experiences. Tony Hawks: Ride was formally announced at the end of the year, alongside its “deck” controller which would be designed by Chicago-based Product Council firm. Ride released to near universal negative reviews, with some outlets awarding the game the not so coveted “Worst game of the year” award. Sales totalled roughly 100k units, not nearly enough to earn a profit. In an attempt to recoup some cost, a sequel was greenlit that would reuse many of the 1st games assets and be developed in an aggressive 8 month timeline. Tony Hawks: Shred fared even worse than the first game, selling only about 3k units at retail, one of the worst performing games in the publisher's history. The results of the two games pushed Activision to cancel all future Tony Hawk projects and put the franchise on hold. A few new titles in the IP were released by Robomodo over the next five years, but the franchise wouldn’t see critical or commercial success again until 2020s Pro Skater 1 + 2 developed by Vicarious Visions. #tonyhawk #proskater #skate #skate3 #skating #playstation #wii #nintendo #xbox #gamers #gaming #retrogames #retrohardware #gaminghistory #gamingposts #gamingnews #gamingfacts #gamestagram #gamersofig #instagamers #gamepast

South Park for the Game Boy Color was a canceled puzzle game that was eventually rebranded and released as “Mary Kate and Ashley: Get a Clue!”⁠ The original game code and assets for South Park can actually still be found on the cartridge. ⁠ In 1998 Acclaim won a very costly bidding war for the rights to publish South Park games. Acclaim focused development effort on a Nintendo 64 game, hoping to release alongside the South Park film in 1999. They also worked on a Game Boy Color game by developer Crawfish to further profit off the IP. The creators of South Park; Matt Stone and Trey Parker, did not want to release an adult oriented game on a system known for its younger audience and were angered when they saw lines they had written for the Nintendo 64 game being used for the Game Boy game instead. ⁠ Acclaim, not wanting to risk souring the relationship with the creators, agreed to halt development of the game. Because of the cancellation, Crawfish Interactive was heading towards bankruptcy. They quickly reskinned the title using a virtually unknown IP, “Maya the Bee” based on a popular German cartoon. ⁠ The Maya the Bee IP was considered too obscure for a US release. Instead, Acclaim used one of their legacy IPs, The Olsen Twins. The game sold poorly, with the Olsen Twins now several years away from the height of their popularity. The game was all but forgotten until YouTuber Angry Video Game Nerd played through it for an episode, putting Roms of the game in the public light. In 2017, a fully playable version of the South Park GBC game was leaked onto the internet, where fans noticed it was eerily similar to the Olsen Twins game AVGN played. Former developers came forward and revealed the whole story of how the game came to be and indeed, that the entire game code and content for South Park can be found on the game cartridge. ⁠ #southpark #olsentwins #nintendo64 #gameboy #gb #olsentwins #olsen #angryvideogamenerd #avgn #roms #emulation #gamehistory #SP #gamepast #gamingnews #gamingposts #gamingfacts #gamersofig #instagamers #gamestagram #interesting #didyouknow #til #todayilearned #n64

Euro Truck Driving Simulator 2 is an open world truck driving simulator and the direct sequel to 2008s Euro Truck Simulator. It was developed and published by SCS Software and released for Windows PC, Linux, and MacOS in October, 2012. Despite the games seemingly niche appeal, the game has gone on to sell over 9 million units and is considered by some critics to be among the greatest simulation games ever created. Gameplay takes place in an open world environment designed to mimic Europe, but is not a one to one recreation of the roads and distances. Players are free to begin gameplay in any city and begin taking local short distance jobs. Completing jobs earns the player money which can be used to maintain the players truck as well as acquire new trucks, garages, and upgrades. The player may also begin hiring other truckers and fleets and expand into a shipping empire. The content is virtually endless, and the player almost always has goals and upgrades that can be worked towards. While the game initially launched with fictional trucks and trucking companies, later updates included official branding as word of the game began to spread within the automotive industry. Volvo, Iveco, DAF Trucks, and Mercedes-Benz have all provided high quality scans and models of their truck interior and exteriors. In April 2021, Renault Trucks unveiled their new T-High range of trucks by releasing them in the game, becoming the first time an automotive vehicle has ever been announced via video game. DAF followed three months later, unveiling the XG and XG+ model trucks via the game. #eurotruck #simulator #pcgaming #pcgames #truckers #shipping #europe #euro #sims #gamingposts #gamingnews #gaminghistory #gamingfacts #mercedesbenz #volvo #gamersofig #instagamers #gamestagram #gamepast

Redemption games are arcade games that reward tickets which can be redeemed for prizes. They are commonly found at arcades, family amusement centers, and movie theaters in the West. Throughout Asia, redemption games may also target adults or may be used as a form of gambling.⁠ ⁠ Most redemption games can be traced back to one of two origins; carnival games of chance in the West (Skee-ball, basketball hoops, strength testers) or from gambling games in Japan (coin pushers, pachinko). Throughout Asia, gambling games where some degree of skill (or illusion of) determines success are more popular than games where success is purely luck based. Many of the common “redemption games” we play in the West are gambling games in Asia.⁠ ⁠ In parts of Asia, redemption games may be used to curt local gambling laws. Rather than redeeming tickets for small toys or candy, players may instead take their tickets to an establishment nearby where a secondary market exists for buying and selling tickets between players. The player then redeems their tickets by selling them to another player at an agreed upon daily exchange rate. In Hong Kong in particular these establishments often have ties to organized crime.⁠ ⁠ In the US, several states have specific guidelines that redemption games must follow to be considered an amusement rather than gambling game. For example; in New Jersey games must reward a flat number of tickets regardless of skill. In Canada, arcade operators must pay additional fees for redemption games, and games that are portrayed as skill based, such as claw games, must not have any other factors that determine success outside of the players skill.⁠ ⁠ As more and more gamers moved to console and PC gaming in the late 90s, many arcades found redemption games to be their only avenue of profitability, with establishments like Dave and Busters dedicating nearly 90% of their floor space to the machines.⁠ ⁠ #gamepast #arcades #retrogaming #retrogames #japan #arcade #pachinko #clawgame #90s #retrotech #oldtech #gaming #games #gamingposts #gamingnews #gaminghistory #gamingfacts #gamestagram #gamersofig #instagamers #interesting #didyouknow #barcades #skeeball

Yoshi is a dinosaur companion of Mario and Luigi from the Super Mario Bros. series. Yoshi first appeared in 1990s Super Mario World and has gone on to be one of Mario's most recognizable allies.⁠ ⁠ Shigeru Miyamoto’s first game made exclusively for the Famicom was called “Devil World” a Pac-Man style game featuring two dragons. Nintendo of America forbade religious iconography in their games and Devil World never saw a Western release. Despite this, the dragon characters were loved by Miyamoto who wanted to use them in future games.⁠ ⁠ For Super Mario Bros, Miyamoto envisioned Mario riding a dragon, but after consideration leaned more towards a dinosaur-like appearance. The graphic limitations of the NES prevented his vision from being fulfilled. Even as development of Super Mario Bros 3 began, Miyamoto had envisioned Mario having a steed. He drafted concepts of Mario riding a horse for the game, but Takashi Tezuka, the lead developer, insisted it was not possible due to the hardware limitations of the NES. To account for the gameplay mechanics Miyamoto wanted to incorporate with the horse, Tezuka designed the frog suit instead.⁠ ⁠ With the SNES Miyamoto was finally able to have Mario riding something. Feeling like a horse would not fit into the cartoon world, he went back to his earlier drawings of the Dinosaurs. Yoshi was born and became a beloved addition to the series. ⁠ #yoshi #smash #NES #nintendo #switch #snes #nes #marioparty #mariokart #miyamoto #shigerumiyamoto #mario #supermario #mariobros #n64 #wii #famicom #16bit #gamersofig #gamestagram #gamepast #gaming #videogames #classicgames #retrogaming #gamingposts #gamingnews #gaminghistory #gamingfacts #interesting #facts

Um Jammer Lammy is a rhythm game developed by NanaOn-Sha and released for PlayStation in 1999. It is a spin off the studio's early success, PaRappa the Rapper, but with a focus on rock music over the first games rap. After the success of PaRappa, Sony was keen on quickly releasing a sequel. Game Director Masaya Matsuura wanted to move away from the rap genre as he felt rap didn’t have the same staying power as rock music, a stance the majority of the game team disagreed with. As the dev team was multinational, with several developers in both Asia and the West, disagreements over the games direction were common, with Art Director Rodney Greenblat particularly vocal over the choice of music. The game also had a significantly higher budget and higher financial goals than the first, adding pressure to the team to deliver. As the game developed, the art team started to go into a more psychedelic direction while main character Lammy was inspired by real life Australian popstar Natalie Imbruglia. At one point Greenblat felt the game should switch to a goth aesthetic, which inspired him to create a “dark version” of Lammy, called Rammy. As development proceeded through 1997 and 1998 Sony Computer Entertainment began adapting more internet technologies into their development studios. Prior to 1998 the teams had been faxing each other critical information, but now were able to quickly share both assets and code. As the communication improved, the team's visions quickly unified behind the psychedelic art style. Masaya even relented to the teams continued interest in rap music and allowed the game to be played through as PaRappa. #parappa #umjammerlammy #playstation #ps1 #sony #rhythmgames #retrogames #musicgames #retro #remotework #internet #technology #gamingposts #gamingnews #gamingfacts #gaminghistory #gamersofig #instagamers #instagramgamers #gamestagram #gamepast

Ach ja, was waren das noch für geilen Zeiten damals, als man sich ein Spiel für die PS2 gekauft hat, es eingelegt hat und sofort spielen konnte 😍. Ich denke die PS2 ist nicht nur für mich sondern für die meisten von uns (mal ausgenommen die jüngeren zocker) die Konsole, wo uns am meisten geprägt hat. Ich könnte jetzt hunderte von geilen Spielen hier aufzählen und ich denke selbst, dass würde nicht mal reichen. Chapeau an Sony was die damals mit der Playstation 2 abgeliefert haben 🥂.

ASUS is prepping a new model of the ROG Ally PC handheld that promises much better battery life than the original product. The company offered some details about the product, dubbed the ROG Ally X, in a Thursday livestream, with more information likely to come when the product is officially announced at a June 2 event. "This is going to be more than just a basic refresh with one spec change," said Asus marketing manager Whitson Gordon. "It's not just, 'Oh, we changed the color, we added some more storage.' It’s a little bit more than that. But at the same time, it’s not a full redesign or a totally new generation. It's somewhere in between these two things.” While the company is keeping the specs and look of the Ally X under wraps, the company did reveal that it will pack a substantial battery improvement, along with upgrades to the RAM, storage, ports, and possibly even the hardware design itself.
