When my kid grows up, I'm going to recommend him to not have any hobbies. Just easier in the long run. You like a thing and then find out your love of it could have a non-zero chance of funding autonomous weapons in the future. Just stare at a wall, the wall can't disappoint you.

I have a trackball, I have a Mister FPGA, I have a life long need to find people called Wally. Or Waldo. Or Walter. Or Charlie. Turns out Sega made the perfect game for me back in the 90s. I test it out to see if this is more kid friendly than MK2. 2pinsertcoin.com/2025/12/09/w...

Finally hooked up my Kensington track ball to my Mister. Now I can finally find Wally in the japanese only Sega arcade game released because someone at Sega's child really liked Where's Wally. And we are forever grateful for that fact. #MisterFPGA #Mister #WheresWally?

New kid friendly games on sale, Dino Dawn Doom! Kind of looks like Jurassic Park on the SNES, but instead of 1st person you get 3rd person indoors. Picture of a guy aiming a shotgun at a raptor. It's PEGI 3. That's christmas for the little ones sorted.

Tiny Terry’s Turbo Trip, a PEGI 3 game where a child causes chaos in order to drive a car into space. It’s silly, short, chaotic, and surprisingly heartfelt. Is it kid-friendly? …Depends how early you want to explain extortion to the little one. Review here: 2pinsertcoin.com/2025/12/06/t...

Ordered more than a few things from Homebrew Factory in the past but never really delved into their direct manufacturing side. Plenty of homebrew Mega Drive games which could take advantage of this which would be lovely to see in the future, and maybe more with Scorpion Engine still being worked on.

📢Big news from Homebrew Factory! We know how much you love Nintendo consoles, but for SEGA lovers, Mega Drive / Genesis support is now available in the configurator! ➡️ creator.homebrew-factory.com #retrogaming #SEGA #mddev #gendev #megadrive #segagenesis #genesis #SGDK

Trying to find a kid-friendly N64 games for T-Bone for the new Analogue 3D, figured Elmo could help me out. Elmo's Letter Adventure: 26 minutes Elmo's Number Journey: 19 minutes. Not sure who this was made for back in 1999, kids or BlockBuster... Review here: 2pinsertcoin.com/2025/12/02/e...

New reading for T-Bone, the Mario Galaxy Kids book, Rosalina's Storybook, has arrived and has found a solid place on my lap. T-Bone likes it, but is it any good? Let's review it: 2pinsertcoin.com/2025/11/30/r...

Going through another PEGI 3 game on Game Pass, this time on the search of soup ingredients in the Latin adventure SOPA - Tale of the Stolen Potato, a game with charm but ultimately let down by its point n click mechanics. 2pinsertcoin.com/2025/11/28/s...
