One more video for 2025! This one is about Top Gear Rally, one of my favourite games for the N64.

It's a physics-heavy rally title from early in the console's life that is punishing to start, but very rewarding when you give it a chance.

Watch it here: https://t.co/bxEpIjjNGy

@onaretrotip Cheers Pete! 😁

Bonus video! Recently, I talked about how a certain VHS promo tape from Mean Machines Sega helped shape my early love of gaming.

It has been decades since I have watched this tape in full. Let's check it out together for a bit of fun!

Ten years of Blast Processing - crazy stuff!

The full video is now up on the channel, with a bit more information about how I got into video games as a kid as well as some previews of upcoming videos.

Thanks for watching - here's to another decade! 🥳

Sonic Blast wanted to be handheld Sonic & Knuckles with pre-rendered graphics, but it was not to be.

Awkward level design and physics, mixed with an art style that was rough to say the least!

Premieres this weekend: https://t.co/s9FNQJgcUI

Konami released a trio of TMNT games on the original Game Boy. How do they stack up today? The video premieres this weekend - see you there! See if you can guess who my favourite Turtle is before the end of the video... https://t.co/NicjLFUXVy

Better late than never! After Burner Climax saw Sega's classic franchise return in 2006. It's tricky to find a way to play it today - is the effort worth it? (Spoilers: yes!)

@GamerXtreem 👍 nice!

It's my birthday today! My wonderful parents contributed to my descent into the rabbit hole of audio gear - in this case, a Fosi SK02 DAC/Amp and a set of Philips Fidelio X3 headphones. The audio in my videos is a big thing I'd like to improve and this is a step in that direction

This was inevitable the second that MVC2 was announced for modern consoles to be honest @JWonggg #Wazzler

Spotted this today at my old school's annual fête in the 'Trash-n-Treasure' #Nintendo

The teenage fanboy in me is enjoying that we are somehow going to see Sonic Adventure 2 adapted to film before Metal Gear Solid. Take that, PlayStation!

[Sonic the Hedgehog @SonicMovie]

New adventure. New rival. 💙💛❤️🖤 Watch the trailer for #SonicMovie3 - only in theatres December 20.

[Blast Processing @blastprocshow]

Premieres soon, hope to see you there! 🧑‍🚀

Space Harrier is a classic #Sega arcade title. Many ports to lesser hardware were to come but, considering how powerful the arcade hardware was, were they any good? Find out when 'The Many Faces of Space Harrier' premieres in a few days! https://t.co/NEvz62xLP2
