It has been a long time since the last real post.

Since Summer will be here soon, I really wanted to get the NAOMI working again.

“Dead or Alive 6 Last Round” was announced on Feb 12th, alongside the announcement that a new DOA (fighting) game is in the works.

I nearly forgot about the third year anniversary of this site.

Relevant audio.

I recently purchased a Brother Scan N Cut machine so I could finally print my own stickers.

MAGfest is finally here.

I’m writing this to take a break from drawing.

I’ve been working on a zine for a while now, and the first issue is now available.

In the last post, I wrote about how I ruined my new PGM set up by pressing the “test” button on my Astro City power supply in an attempt to switch the game to free play.

I burned a lot of film trying to get a photo of the CRT.

I had the brilliant idea to hook the NAOMI up to the Versus City yesterday, since Virtua Tennis is one of the few games that supports the winner lamps and billboards.

I’ve been playing a lot of Cosmic Smash recently.

What started with me wanting to try Dead or Alive 2 Ultimate quickly snowballed into getting two Xboxes and every Xbox DOA game.

Tetris Kiwamemichi I had written some stuff about this game for a “review” in the “reviews” section in 2023.

I have done absolutely nothing to the Astro City since the last post.

I have been having a really hard time with this camera.

I recently bought a Blast City monitor bezel from a guy on Arcade Projects, When I saw it, I thought “I could do something cool with that.”

It’s time for another one.

I’m a little late.

The first Dead or Alive game I played was DOA4 on the Xbox 360 when I was 8 years old.

On Saturday I invited friends over to play some games.

It’s a slow day at work, so it’s the perfect time to write another one of these.

There’s not much to say here, but this tiny change has made a huge difference so I wanted to post about it.

I’m a little late making this post.

I daydream about being home and drawing (or doing anything creative on the computer) all the time.

There isn’t much to this post.

I saw this tweet (on 4chan, classic) and it got me thinking about how much time I spend connected to the internet in some way.

This is my fourth attempt at writing something about shmups.

I found this blog post through indieblog.page.

The right speaker on the player 2 side hasn’t worked since I got this cab.

Some time has passed since the last one, so here’s the next info dump on the bullshit I’ve been into.

This has been in the works for over 6 months.

😵‍💫 I don't know what happened to the images in this post.

In my last post about the Naomi, I mentioned that there was something up with the Raspberry Pi that loaded the games onto the NetDIMM.

More specifically, it’s a New Astro City.

Cannon Spike is a shoot em up/beat em up hybrid.

🌸 This post was written for the Lainchan Spring Festival.

I will usually get hooked on one game and play only that game for weeks.

Cammy has been the “mascot” of my website before it was even called maerk.xyz.

I think I have more hours in Minecraft than any other game.

It has been a year since my first blog post.

Before I get into the good stuff, I’ll fill you in on the little things that have happened since putting in the new monitor.

Sorry.

After many months of me bitching, Mister Addons AKA Porkshop Express AKA Mister MiSTercade sent me a new MiSTercade.

I have multiple documents on my computer saved in a variety of file formats that are all essentially the same thing.

IT’S BROKEN AAAAAAAAAAA 😇 It's working now.
