Games and shames. I work at Nintendo in the Treehouse. My thoughts are, regretfully, my own.

[Super Samicom @sam_abouharb]

Respect.

@Mathtastrophy @blurrygil I’ve never seen these before… And now I want one. Amazing.

As Jews we are told from a young age that our identities are intrinsically tied to the modern State of Israel.

It is taught to us in Hebrew School, in services, and is a deeply held belief by many of our parents, grandparents and family members.

As Palestine Suffers, A Call For Action https://t.co/ow0v0i5OQY

[GameSpot @GameSpot]

Palestinian civilians across Gaza, West Bank, and Jerusalem are experiencing great suffering, and you can help. Please consider donating to these charitable organizations to help people desperately in need. https://t.co/WVEhxZEkyl

[Tamoor Hussain @tamoorh]

This is the world Palestinians exist in. Imagine knowing this is your reality every single day. Imagine knowing the world is watching this happen and doesn’t deem your life worth standing up for.

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

The United States must speak out strongly against the violence by government-allied Israeli extremists in East Jerusalem and the West Bank, and make clear that the evictions of Palestinian families must not go forward.

@TheRealBCHagan @NintendoAmerica Haha. Thanks so much!

@citrus3000psi Hi! This is the first I’ve heard of WiiDigital, and I’m sad to hear it’s on hold. Out of curiosity, could WiiDual be upgraded with the WiiDigital firmware should that project resume? I understand this might not be possible to answer at the moment.

[Super Samicom @sam_abouharb]

@FBXGargoyle This sounds incredible. Thanks! I don't know much about audio... Is it possible for it to sound like this while you play, or is the type of adjustment you're doing something that can be done only in post?

[Super Samicom @sam_abouharb]

@RetroRGB Excellent. I’ll track down the video. Thanks again!

[Super Samicom @sam_abouharb]

@johntv @GeekyGlassesTV Lookin’ good! No need to futz with it if you’re happy, but it wouldn’t cost you much to take your Dreamcast setup to The Next Level ™.

@TheRealBCHagan Thanks so much!

[Super Samicom @sam_abouharb]

Every year I work for this company expands the list of opportunities and experiences I have to be thankful for. Nintendo Treehouse Live at #E32019 was incredible, and spending time with all the people who make it happen is the highlight. Thank you, all!

[Super Samicom @sam_abouharb]

@NotPodell Lunch?

[Nintendo of America @NintendoAmerica]

That’s a wrap for #NintendoTreehouseLive | #E32019! Thanks for watching and be sure to catch up on everything you might have missed!

Thank you so much to everyone who joined us for Nintendo Treehouse: Live @ #E32019. Putting together three days of livestream content is a real labor of love for us, and it’s an honor to share these games and the insights of so many incredibly talented developers with you.

[Super Samicom @sam_abouharb]

@andrewpfister I struggled with whether to share...but the last remaining cache of dill pickles is under the counter and available by request. Keep it secret. Keep it safe.

[Super Samicom @sam_abouharb]

@TSegaholic I hear you. I got the one with the smallest, finest tip I could find and worked slowly to avoid the areas around the pads. You can see on C13 that I scraped away a bit of the resist, but what can you do. I'm just glad it's working again.

[Super Samicom @sam_abouharb]

Resurrection! I had to clean the corrosion from each capacitor’s pads with a fiberglass pen, but this model-one Japanese Mega CD is once again ready for the next level of some mostly mediocre games.
