This is the 2022 Columbus Circle 30th Anniversary Edition of Advanced Busterhawk Gley Lancer for the Japanese Sega Mega Drive. This edition is slightly changed from Columbus Circle’s Glay Lancer release from 2019. I believe this 2nd re-release happened because of demand for this excellent Mega Drive exclusive shooter. This 30th Edition version received some improvements from the previous 2019 edition. This time around the cartridge has beveled edges and the game manual and cart label have improved quality. Even for this 30th edition I find the manual to be a little soft and in places the print is a little dark. The cart, cart label and cover sleeve are excellent. Over all this is a very good product. But it does fall noticeably short of the quality we’re getting from the recent @retrobitgaming re-releases. Retrobit’s Gaiares and TOAPLAN collection are just perfect. I purchased my Glaylancer 30th Ed. from ebay for $85 USD which included $5 USD shipping. When it arrived I got hit with $15 USD duty. @retrobitgaming is doing their own release of Gley Lancer and pre-orders are open now. I recommend skipping this Columbus Circle release (despite it being good) and opt in for Retrobit instead. #RetroVideoGames #RetroMegabit #16bit #SegaDude #RetroCollective #SegaGenesis #Sega #RetroVideoGameCollection #RetroVideoGameCollector #MegaDrive #Japanese #ColumbusCircle #GleyLancer #AdvancedHawkbuster #Retrobit #PhysicalVideoGame #RetroGaming #Shooter #Spaceship #Anime https://www.instagram.com/p/ClUSyUYuE1d/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

my animal crossing switch

a ms pacman thing that my aunts dad got me and my sisters for christmas (my sisters have fucking wrecked this thing its covered in crumbs and handprints) (it has a bunch of old arcade games but the outside is decorated to look like ms pacman)

i might be forgetting some things, but i think this is all. idk i dont trust my memory

half of these are either second hand or were gifts

also we used to have a n64 when i was little but my stepdad sold it and i can barely remember it (i have like one fuzzy memory of playing mario 64 with him and i think i only remember it bcus there is a picture of me sitting in his lap while we played)

#can you tell im a nerd #the retrobit thing i got at a yardsale for twenty bucks #theres apparently an extension to it you can get to play genisis games but i have a genisis so i dont need it #i grew up with the genisis and i specifically liked this fucking mcdonalds game #there is a motherfucking mcdonalds game for the sega genisis i am not making this shit up #theres this one part on a train with a bunch of flashing lights that made my mom sick #also before anyone asks ''wdym aunts dad isnt that just your grandpa'' my mom and aunt have different dads

[raven-at-the-writing-desk]

you know i've been thinking about the consequences of malleus's actions in book 7 and i realized how much he's fucked everyone over including his grandma. bc like other than the fact that he ob'd (which literally has NEGATIVE connotations one of which being is idk ""UNSTABLE"" which isnt necessarily a good look for a crown prince is all im saying) he's literally causing terrorism (??? can you call it that idk how else to call it) which is going to setback his grandma's efforts (and lilia's and baul's, and every supporter of his and his family) in keeping peace in their kingdom and the favor of the humans towards the fae. Like. i feel so bad for grandmother draconia rn i can only imagine the stress and pressure she's under.

Then theres also aside from PHYSCIALLY compromising everyone's healths in sage island (BECAUSE THE MAJORITY ARE HUMANS OR AT LEAST THEY DONT LIVE AS LONG AS THE FAE). He's also fucked everyone mentally twice over!!!! By booting them straight into a world where none of their problems exist. Now that wouldnt sound bad if it weren't for the fact that dreams have to end, and life isnt kind. It rarely ever is, and i can only imagine how distraught i would be if i were to say, hypothetically lost someone a year before and the wound is so fresh and raw and, in my dreams, they never died and everything is okay, then i wake up and realize that it was just that. A dream, they are still gone and i wish i never woke up which would be a LITERAL DEATH SENTENCE. This isnt just an event that takes place in NRC either BUT THE WHOLE ISLAND and that domain is GROWING, GROWING. I can't imagine just how many would be so emotionally ruined after this. Like.....

If Malleus does not suffer the consequences of his actions istg i will be so pissed, at least REMOVE HIM FROM THE PREMISE OR SOMETHING GODDDDDDD this cannot be remedied with a slap on the hand!!!!!

(Note: Sorry for the long rant. I felt the need to get this out of my chest bc i dont mind malleus's archetype actually nor do i actually hate him, bc i enjoy him interacting w other characters a lot (my fave ever vigenette is him giving deuce the equivalent of minecraft diamon for fixing a retrobit gaming toy) BUT GOD DOES HE MAKE MY BLOOD BOIL)

Yeah, I do feel like the scale of Malleus's actions cannot be understated. I know it's kind of a fandom joke that the OB boys are left off with a slap on the wrist + maybe some social ramifications at school, but this is the ONE time in the main story where things are getting super big and the effects could be cripplingly long-lasting.

I don't know if TWST will seriously address the consequences after book 7, but I sure hope they do!! There is a lot of interesting ground to cover (many points which this anon has already brought up) in a follow-up main story arc or the next book.

For example:

Malleus obviously has to regain the trust of his peers and staff. He didn’t really have it before but now has to work twice as hard to make connections since he just took a drastic action that confirmed the rumors some were already spreading about how he’s a monster.

He’s the sole heir to the throne and has just betrayed the trust of the people of Briar Valley. How are they feeling about him now? Do they still trust him to lead them?

How does this impact their relations with other countries (since Malleus himself stresses how he represents Briar Valley)? This is a problem visible on a global scale, and surely this would damage their rep with other nations, particularly the predominantly human ones. It’s setting back what is hundreds of years of trying to fix the broken trust between their races.

Malleus’s UM potentially puts his victims in physical harm; in book 7, Ortho suggests that since everyone is sleeping, their bodies are not getting the food or water they need. As a result, they may physically waste away and then perish. (We have seen that there are sleep blessings that keep people sleeping for hundreds of years without detriment to the blessed though, such as the one cast on Silver—so we cannot be entirely sure if Ortho’s theory is correct or not.)

There is the possibility that Malleus’s dreams may traumatize or retraumatize his victims, particularly those with deep rooted troubles. An example of this is Idia, who had suffered the loss of his brother when he was like… 8 years old??? But then in his dream, Idia is living a happy false reality that Ortho never died. When he finally comes to this realization, he has to relive the trauma of the discovery all over again and breaks down sobbing. We also see in the most recent book 7 update that Vil had to face the evilest aspects of himself and a dark reality; Rook became very emotional upon waking himself. Admittedly, Idia and co. coped with it well enough—this is proof of their character development and the strength of the new friendships they’ve formed. However, all the people on Sage’s Island/Twisted Wonderland may not react so positively or be so accepting of their cruel realities.

Again, just the overall moral dilemma of one person robbing all of Sage’s Island (and soon all of Twisted Wonderland) of their autonomy.

Potential extra work for STYX and whichever countries Malleus’s magic manages to spread to (repairing any physical damage caused by the thorns + mental damage done to those that fell asleep). That’s money, time, and resources that aren’t going toward other everyday endeavors.

How will Malleus himself mentally and emotionally cope with what he has done? Is he going to show remorse and shame? How does he plan on rectifying his actions, if at all?

Will this change how his dorm members + family view him? For example, will Sebek become disillusioned with his liege/realize Malleus is not as perfect as he seems? Will Maleficia blame herself for not being there for Malleus? Will Lilia feel guilty for not teaching Malleus right from wrong? Etc, etc, etc.

I’d honestly love to read all of these! 🤔 It would add a lot to the lore and history of Twisted Wonderland, as well as serve as motivators for Malleus to change, “be better”, and actually earn the respect he’s so used to being handed by default. This would be huge for him, especially seeing as he has not really faced significant backlash or consequences for any other missteps he was responsible for or involved in. (I know I bring this one up a lot, but Endless Halloween Night is one such major example.)

Bootleg Consoles

Here's something pretty common for both collectors and folks feeling nostalgic, you may look around in their living room and see an odd console sitting by their TV. It may have multiple slots with games from different consoles in them from different companies. Behold a bootleg aftermarket console has graced your presence.

Unlike most things I've been talking about here, these are legal. They don't use anything trade marked or copyrighted, like logos or the original aesthetics so Nintendo or Sega can't really sue them. Instead these bootlegs are using expired patents that the original companies don't have a desire to use anyway. Granted a lot of these consoles also use software emulation.

The most well known company behind these consoles is Retrobit. The retro Duo and Trio are both fairly common, typically with a red and black color scheme. They mainly focus on the NES, SNES, and Genesis. Hyperkin has the most diversity with their products, they include consoles that can play the three already mentioned as well as Atari and Game boy games. There aren't any for the N64 and beyond, likely the patents haven't expired yet, either that or production issues.

These consoles have plenty of benefits over the originals, otherwise you'd just be better off getting the originals. For one they are region free, back when the originals were the new hotness the main way of region locking the games was physically altering the cartridge slot to take only a specific shape of the shell. The SNES has a more boxy shape compared to the more rounded super famicom, both slots were built to take their respective cartridges snugly. The aftermarket consoles usually don't have that keyhole aspect, there are some exceptions of course, but for the most part you could play whatever on these consoles.

The main reason why people buy these consoles is because the originals are either too expensive or have compatibility issues with modern TV's. There are TV's out there that don't have AV inputs. Often times with the pricing, older consoles can cost between $50 and $100 or more depending on the seller. The three in ones at most cost $70, and usually have an HDMI output. There is always the possibility of the original consoles just not working one day due to their age. Alternatively the originals may just not be available in your area.

Overall these consoles have found their niche and intend to stay there, while being legally in the clear unlike most other things I've covered. Depending on where you are, physically or financially, they are the only way to play old games.

Oh yeah, I don't endorse piracy, yadda yadda cover my legal bases, goodnight everyone!

I finally managed to make a confrontation song for Colonel! ^^ (Hopefully it’s not too loud).

For this song, I decided to go for something more heavy-sounding in order to up the intimidation factor of facing him. He’s the 2nd-highest authority in all of Repliforce, and he’s a powerful combat reploid. Definitely not a foe to be taken lightly. I also tried to incorporate a little bit of the vs.Colonel & General tune in the last melody, but I realized that it’s not very noticeable.

While composing this, I also imagined him making some sort of dramatic entrance where he’s stepping out of a big airship or something. I think it kinda works for confronting him at the spaceport too.

For the drum-beat, I also had to do a bit of a workaround since I encountered one of the program’s limitations. For some reason I just COULD NOT place the notes in the right spots in order to make the “tat-tat-tat-tat” bit no matter what BPM I used, so what I did was create a second track, set the drum sound as an arpeggio, then added a silent note to cut it off so that it doesn’t make any extra “tats.“

I tried to illustrate it, but I kinda doubt it makes it any less confusing... 😅

I probably wouldn’t have had to do this if RYTMIK Retrobits had a shuffle-beat effect like RYTMIK World Music does... 😤
