March bonus: The bones of Segaiden Vol. I
🕑 Added 2022-03-31 21:04:13 +0000 UTCI have no idea how we've already reached the end of March. I had hoped to begin posting patron-exclusive videos this month, but that plan hit a bizarre snag. See, I plan to kick off my exclusive videos with Cassette Vision coverage, but making that happen requires more than just modding a console. The Cassette Vision's architecture is pretty weird, and the system offloads a lot of processing onto the cartridges—each one contains a major portion of the system's innards. And that means my entire Cassette Vision collection had to be recapped to make sure the games actually work. I never even imagined such a thing could happen. So bizarre.
Anyway, here's hoping that can kick off in April. In the meantime, here is this month's bonus, a sort of behind-the-scenes experience—the beginning of Segaiden Vol. I. There's not much to it yet, as you can see. But that's how book-making goes. Next I'll plug in raw text, figure out which articles need to be expanded beyond the existing template, figure out where the new sidebar material goes, and plug in other images and screenshots. After that, it's a laborious process of editing/rewriting the text and putting together the sidebar material.
So, please, enjoy with me the beautiful, natural process of childbirth.

I do alot of menu design and whatnot for work so seeing your process makes me smile. InDesign is where I spend my days, so I salute you for your exemplary template game :)

I considered doing the same haha, I ended up going with the master system theme instead though!

Looking forward to the full release! Just discovered that the 3DS has an SG-1000 home theme which I've been using since the SG-1000 Segaiden videos
