About Niorone of us since 5:29 PM on 12.15.2014
Writer for fun, professional amateur and 16-bit dreamer.
Brazilian man born and raised, under the hot sun where I spend most of my days. Currently working on a series dedicated to the documentation of the local gaming culture and landscape, that I call Brazil Of Games. I took the name from an old TV series that aired a long time ago here but no trace of it exists on the Internet.
The Brazil Of Games:
[*] The original blog about Nintendo's departure from my country that planted the seed for everything that's to come, all the way back in 2017.
[*] The first real installment, where I explore the origins of the world's first digital-only console, the Zeebo. And why it failed.
[*] Meet the Locadora, the parlors where we got our first contact with gaming!
[*] A follow up of sorts to the previous blog, where I explore Brazil's most revered game: Top Gear!
[*] The SEGA Genesis might have been born in Japan, but it was Brazil that made it its home! Here's how it happened.
[*] It's no secret we love soccer games. So here's a brief history of the Mod that forever changed how we played them!
[*] Folklore is not something many games explore. Here's a game based on a local folk tale from my hometown.
[*] Everyone knows that gaming really started in the days of the arcade parlors. Brazil's history with them was a very curious one, thanks to legendary company Taito and their many, many bootlegs!
[*] Every story has a beginning. Here's to the game that created our whole gaming industry, Amazônia! May your legacy be remembered for all eternity!
[*] Happy 20th anniversary PlayStation 2! This one is dedicated to the console that changed everything!
