"Small Fixes, Big Difference" - This Handy Windjammers ROM Hack Solves The Game's "One Big Flaw"

You can now pull off "gorgeous" rallies with ease. Jérémy Lemaire, otherwise known as Boomchil, has just released a new fan-made ROM hack for Data East's 1994 Neo Geo "future sports" game, Windjammers . As Lemaire states on his website, " Windjammers... is without a doubt one of the Neo•Geo's best versus games. It's a real treat in two-player mode, and hasn't aged a bit in 30 years. But for me it has always suffered from one big flaw: rounds end far too quickly." Read the full article on timeextension.com

Rideshare Stimulator finally gets its genAI disclosure after much Saber-rattling, and it turns out the game also uses the tech for in-game music

Saber Interactive have belatedly updated the Steam page for Unigine's chatty gig-work game Rideshare Stimulator with a disclosure about generative AI usage, following a withering back-and-forth between the game's former writer Stella Sacco and Saber CEO Matthew Karch. To catch you up, in case you had the good fortune to miss all the yelling earlier in the week: Sacco was lead writer at Saber from July 2023 to July 2024. On Tuesday 11th, responding to Rideshare Stimulator's announcement trailer, she posted on Bluesky that "Saber replaced me with ChatGPT midway through development", adding that the game makes of generative AI tools for passenger voices.

Feature: One Year On, Is Anyone Still Playing Drag x Drive?

Drag x Thrive? Despite what some might think, Nintendo is always releasing games under new IP. It’s not all just Mario and Pokémon. In late May, they released Pictonico! on mobile, and in early August they released D-Hopper on Virtual Boy (technically an old IP that finally saw the light of day). And on 14th August 2025, Nintendo gave us Drag x Drive . Unfortunately, it wasn’t received particularly well. Nintendo’s take on the sport of wheelchair basketball (although they went out of their way to not refer to it as such, instead calling the wheelchairs ‘vehicles’ ) was put forward as a showcase of mouse mode, a new hardware feature of the Switch 2. Using the Joy-Con 2, players control both arms of an avatar character and simulate the feeling of being in a wheelchair - from movement to throwing a basketball and even high-fiving other players.

Something Very Weird Is Happening With PSCD Games' 'Black Jewel Reborn' Mega Drive / Genesis Port

The company's social accounts seem to disagree on the game's current status. Black Jewel Reborn for the Sega Mega Drive / Genesis is still in development , PSCD Games said in a recent social media statement. The Rastan -like hack-and-slash game was originally crowdfunded in 2022, with Michael Mrozek (OpenPandora GmbH) setting up the Kickstarter on PSCD Games's behalf and raising €64,095 from 785 backers. Since then, however, the promised Mega Drive / Genesis, SNES / Super Famicom, NES / Famicom, and Game Boy versions have failed to materialise, raising inevitable questions about the project's status.
