A very detailed and well-designed guide (like most Piggyback guides)

One of the finest kits of retro gaming: legendary 16 bit Sega Mega Drive, Sega Mega-CD extension to play games from CDs and a fancy set of additional RISC CPUs packed in MegaDrive 32X addon making console 32 bit 

Mega Drive (Genesis) consoles were known for excellent sound, so  as medium improved allowed game size (video and audio) even more compared to cartridges, thus providing richer experience 

MegaDrive 32X served as a promising transition from 16 bit to 32 bit era before release of Sega Saturn

Been digging through a couple of boxes looking for something, and look what I've found!

I've bought this one ~10 years ago just to play Gravity Rush, although it came with a Minecraft, Rayman Origins and an Uncharted cartridges from it's prior owner.

What was your favourite #PSVita/#PSP game from back then? (as in, I want to play something fun. any suggestions?)

Why Everyone’s Picking Up a PSP Again in 2026

Over the past few months, I've spotted something a little odd and unexpected happening to Sony's old PlayStation Portable. There's been no corporate push, no announcement of the truly portable Sony handheld we used to hope for (sorry, Portal). Instead, through something far less predictable, considering it's 2026, people are

The Bryant Review

Did some adventuring in Castlevania: portrait of ruin. The DS castlevania games are so friggin good, don't know how many times I've played these.

...Prince of Persia creator Jordan Mechner even considered the port a "brand new game". 😲

Also the second installment in the series, Prince of Persia 2: The Shadow and the Flame, received an SNES version in 1996. 🧭

This one was ported by French software publisher Titus Software. On SNES, Prince of Persia 2 has some missing features and lacks several stages, including the last one. This version even contains glitches, overall being considered an inferior port. 👎

...additional levels, and the original levels that remained are harder and had some extra rooms or different routes. Also, there are additional boss fights, some of which are not the typical sword fighters or involve not only sword fighting but dodging as well. ⚔️

Initially for the Japanese computer ports, Arsys Software also redesigned the Prince's appearance, introducing the classic turban-and-vest look. 👳‍♀️

After the original Apple II release, Prince of Persia was ported to a wide range of platforms, among them an SNES version published by Konami in 1992. 🛕

Aside from graphic and sound enhancements, developer Arsys Software added new enemies, traps and music to the SNES port. Also the player was given two instead of one hour to rescue the Princess like in all the other versions of the game. ⏳

This is because the SNES version features...

If you've ever watched someone play kaizo mario and thought it looked cool but also like you could never do it, I highly recommend trying out this particular hack. It is by far the friendliest kaizo hack I've ever seen, and I think anyone who is just generically "pretty good at video games" can get pretty far in it and feel good about it.

That said it's not an instructional hack that'll tell you how to do every trick, so you might need to check out a video of someone playing it if you get stuck to see what you're supposed to do.
