Matt Sefton Remembers Maboshi’s Arcade
Mat Sephton, aka gingerbeardman (Mastodon, Bluesky), creator of a GotY Playdate game, spent some time tracking down the origins of MaBoShi, aka Maboshi's Arcade, one of the most unique and distinctive independently-made WiiWare games.

Over the years, my teams have made a lot of different browsers on a lot of different devices. Which of the browsers below have you tried?

Which one is your favorite?

If you’re looking for a fun, old-school multiplayer #videogame that’s simple, yet not simple, take a look at “PlateUp!”

We hooked up 4 controllers to a PS5 and had 4 people running around a restaurant. Customers come in, they contemplate the menu. You take their order, make the food, serve it up, and clean the plates for the next customer.

The mechanics are super simple. Run around. X to pick up/put down, and square to “do it” (chop vegetables, mop floors, wash dishes). And it’s fun having 4 people in the same room, meaningfully working on the same problem, shouting “order up!” like in a real restaurant. It has a wholesome fun feel like the old #nintendo #wii games.

The difficulty gradually goes up: more customers, more than one course, more complicated ingredients. And you can buy upgrades like automatic dishwashers and more dining tables.

Fun for any age. Young kids will probably find it fun, but I was playing with my 2 adult sons and high school sophomore. For $20, you’ll get more value than going to a movie theatre.

#3GoodThings for #Sunday:
1. In lieu of going to the MOSI for the gaming event (because ALL the trains were cancelled 😔) My kids asked if they could play on the #WiiU. They enjoyed Rayman Legends and Super Mario Maker (my younger two took it in turns making levels for each other to beat) My son wanted the #Wii out to play Smash Bros 🤓
2. Had a lovely lie-in 🙌🏻
3. Had a tasty roast dinner 😋 The roast potatoes were just perfect 👌🏻
