The niche tech channels I tend to like the most seem to do one of two things, sometimes both. They go deep into history of obscure topics, or they use old tech in a novel way. If you can do either or both, I would probably subscribe.

HOLY CRAP that’s on Master System! Very impressive.
I used to play Jet Moto solely to do tricks. I remember there being level geometry that could send you hundreds of feet in the air.
The game makes you feel like a badass.
Echo Point Nova. Super fast and fun. Hoverboard, Wallrides, grapple, etc are all here.
Internet Archive. Old photography magazines, some with specialized topics. Some are just text/indexes with no pictures.
This screengrab from the Steam store tells me all I need to know.
My favorite Metroid is a knockoff. Environmental Station Alpha. I can’t help but recommend it in any thread that’s even remotely on topic. It’s not “better” than the official titles but I end up replaying ESA way more. The astmosphere and music just really hit me, and the gameplay is tight with lots of secrets.
My favorite official title is Fusion though. It was so awesome being able to play that on the train to school and lunch breaks.
10 years ago they used to give away good free games, but the app updates were always 2 releases behind.
Love this game, great on steam deck as well!
I, too, blame animal crossing.
It was definitely mentioned in Steal This Book by Abbie Hoffman.
BBB is not a govt organization and has no legal authority whatsoever. They are yelp with a legitamite-sounding name.
This game is fantastic.
Do “soulslike” next!
I stopped claiming epic freebies when I realized I ended up buying the game on steam anyway.
Good one from back in the day (not mine): “In a world without walls and fences, who needs Windows and Gates?”
If you post anything, I will check it out!
