Nintendo Leak Reveals Some Cool Stuff…

I was browsing through slashdot.org earlier tonight and came across a posting about a trove of leaked Nintendo source code for games across multiple platforms from the SNES upward. Released last Friday and dubbed the “Gigaleak” on 4chan, there have been several interesting and down right cool extras and goodies that never made it to production found in the data dump. Check out the Slashdot article for more links and info regarding this. – Tom S.

Happy 4th of July!!!

I know I’m posting this a few days late but I just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Independence Date! The fourth of July is always one of my favorite national holidays. This is in part because you get to play with explosives (fireworks) or at least get to go see some pretty good fireworks displays being put on by different Cities/Counties/Municipalities/Native America Tribes/Companies and of course your local amateurs blowing up whatever they can! However this year many of the community fireworks displays were cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the heard of crowds gathering possibly increasing the rate of viral transmission in those areas. It seems in many of these areas the locals have taken it upon themselves to put on their own firework displays and in many cases they were a nice change from the usual large public displays.
Again, Happy 4th of July and I hope you all were able to enjoy what you could of it with your friends and family that you were able to! – Tom S.
