Sega Saturn SHIRO!, the Saturn enthusiast site, picked Virtual Casino for one of their Community Challenges a last month. One prize was reserved for people who successfully reached the game's credits.

The SHIRO! community’s integrity level is pretty high; nobody asked me for a shortcut. But there is one! I found an unreported cheat code for this game that takes you straight to the staff roll.

Details on how you can claim the speed run record for this game are available on Substack.

There’s a preview of Vs, the 1997 PlayStation fighting game, on one of the Official PlayStation Magazine demo discs. Although it restricts what you can play, it’s based on a more-or-less complete build of the game.

I made a patch that lifts the demo limits. With it, you can see some noticeable differences: the sound test screen has an extra music track, the menus use a different background, the HUD is incomplete, and more.

Get the patch from GitHub and check out the writeup on Substack.

Elemental Gearbolt is a light gun game from AlfaSystem that was localized by Working Designs. The cheat sites list unlockable elements for it, but they only describe how to get them the hard way.

I took a look at the game data and found a code that not only unlocks all of the bonus items, but also enables a special debug mode – get the full info over on Substack.
