New article up!

Anyway, enough about the sad state of Sega game centers, today I'll look at the sad state of Tecmo game centers! This is the only TECMOPIA in the Kinki region. Let's check it out.
(I say sad state, but it's actually super busy. I have made the fatal mistake of coming here on a weekend.)

The development of Touki Denshou - Angel Eyes was *rough,* but I imagine there were dozens of other stories from dozens of other companies from that time.
(From the Touki Denshou dev diary, which I've almost finished translated.)
On the Dreamcast dev box side, things are coming along well as I now have sample programs compiling and running!
