Wow! I've been using the internet since the 90s and I have never had my hair blown back by a webpage before. The isometric view certainly hits the nostalgia button. Edit (from the site): "Japan was once globally renowned for its people's quality of unique creativity teamed with a pioneering mindset. Their innovation and inventions changed the world. But that golden era has long been gone. It seems that the quality Ja…
It's bold of the Nintendo family to make such statements about Japanese society when they can't even get their own company under control themselves. Nintendo is probably the most universally hated gaming company and it's true of other Japanese companies as well. They seem to be scared of the internet and goes out of their way to claim copyright infringement on anything fan made having to do with their intellectual pr…
Let's remember the time when leaked docs shown that Nintendo stalked the hacker of 3DS, literally spying on his daily activities: https://twitter.com/forestillusion/status/134122299161979289...

Not sure if it's just me or if it's not as bad as I remember it back in the day? Maybe my ad-blocker is interfering or Safari simply can't keep up with this level of madness?
Ling has definitely updated the site but the source code still has it's great art.
Afaik there's a whole team working on the site. They gave talks about it, and videos of those are on YT.

You should have a timer for how long the existing payment has been there.

It is the "first" interactive music video of a german rap crew. I was stunned when I saw it many years ago. A wonderful piece of work.

#238https://y-n10.com/ The website of the Nintendo founder's family office. It..is just beautifully designed, and a homage to the original game consoles and the entire art form of PC gaming when it started. Earlier thread on HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26803201
Warning: If you click on the logo at the center of the screen, music plays, which may bother others around you.
Most browsers have the option to mute all sites by default unless you explicitly give permission. I find it quite useful!

Just a warning that exploring James Lileks' site will suck you into spending a completely unreasonable number of hours marveling at his outstanding sense of humor (he wrote a great piece last week on the passing of P.J.
