This arrived after the polls closed, which explains why Zohran won with ONLY 50% of the vote

Zohran Mamdani



Tonight feels like the perfect occasion to give this yet another RT

Zohran Mamdani was asked in 2002 by New York Magazine, along with other NYC kids, about what they wanted for the Winter holidays, to which Zohran, age 11, answered with a request for books + FIFA 2003 & SimCity 3000 for PC

And this is precisely the type of content that keeps me on Twitter (the OP has a Bluesky account & I too barely use mine either)

a couple months ago my local thrift was listing this homemade Q-anon arcade cabinet for $3k. (lol) Yesterday, i bought it for $250. Just look at this fucking thing

The Halo franchise being ruined via a two-hit combo delivered by a board room full of clueless execs at Microsoft & a bunch of Trump-appointed incels who are running/ruining the United States was not on my bingo card for 2025

Finishing this fight.

Had to remind myself that Twitter still has lots of Japanese users who continue to post wholesome game culture-related content, to fight back the urge to finally quit this place

I'd be remiss if I didn't RT this rt clip that absolutely oozes Sega CD vibes

TONIGHT! It's "RECONSTRUCTED/REMIXED/RECYCLED FRIGHTS" Am also replaying some past bangers, which incudes another mixtape of GOAT horror flicks, produced by a now defunct radical editing collective, aka @racertrash; stream starts at 8:00PM EST… wonderville.nyc/events/the-for…



"Prison TikTok be funny as fuck sometimes" is the most "that is dark af, lol" thing I've encountered on any social media platform in recent memory Also, as thankful as I'd be to have a PS5 to pass the time behind bars, not gonna lie, the mismatched controller would drive me nuts

No way bro



Regular viewers of FORT90 TV are very familiar with individual below, whereas most everyone else I would assume might have more than a few questions; tune in tonight (see wonderville.nyc/events/fort90-…) to have them answered… maybe (and yes, some game-adjacent content is also in store)


I'd be remiss if I didn't offer yet another preview of tonight's FORT90 TV (which officially launches the FORT90 BROADCAST SYSTEM, see wonderville.nyc/events/fort-90…; tune in to find out what the hell I'm talking about) given how it also ties into local game culture happenings

The Smashing Machine 2000 Arcade is coming to NYC on October 2 & 3 at 305 Canal Street. Show your Smashing Machine movie ticket at door for entry.



If Grok is indeed accurate (Google offers a slightly different translation), Super Scope playing salaryman in Akiba circa 1993 finally has a Twitter account

スーファミのスーパースコープで遊んでるところを沢山撮られていて面白い☺️☺️ 1993年頃の秋葉原いいなぁ☺️☺️家電とかエモい(^o^) #スーパーファミコン #akiba #レトロゲーム



If Nintendo is looking for a quick & easy way to entertain returning guests of their theme park btw expansions that can often take years, I hope someone in a position of power stumbles across an old episode of WCW Saturday Night (which used to be filmed at Universal Studios)


Get ready for the hottest of hot takes: both myself & Mrs. Fort90 thought this looked better than Wolverine & most everything else in yesterday’s State of Play I also love the “bro said gta 6 style visuals and shit looks like No More Heroes“ in the replies, like it’s a bad thing

Ananta is a: > an anime style GTA game complete with driving mechanics , heist missions, weapon wheel, GTA V character switching and GTA 6 style visuals > a Watch Dogs game where you are able to hack and shut down the city lights > a Spider-Man game with web swinging and…



I know it's pretty much old news at this point, yet I'd be remiss if I didn't highlight what might be the darkest example of game culture that I've witnessed in my 20+ years of covering the subject

Gotta Catch ‘Em All.



Gaming's greatest prognosticators are either Hideo Kojima or Mega64, it's honestly a toss-up…

Mega64 predicted this
