Neopets

Video Games
- The Cutting Room Floor: In-depth wiki on programming secrets in gaming!
- CW Cyrix's Miscellaneous Website: Home to prototype ROMs, tech, filelists, and more!
- Diamond Trust of London: "The world's first player-funded Nintendo DS cartridge." Mostly putting this here as a reminder for myself to get it.
- Famicom World: A+ Famicom database.
- Glorious Trainwrecks: A list of unashamedly bad Unity/Game Maker/etc. games.
- Lost Levels - Bio Force Ape: A tale of the cancellation, hoax, and dump of the Bio Force Ape prototype.
- Lunatic Obscurity: One of my favourite independent game reviewers; reviews a broad range of obscure titles!
- Price Charting - Video Game Prices & Values: Hoo boy. PROS: Lets you see the current value of the games in your collection, with reasonable accuracy. Take with a grain of salt. CONS: Sample bias--its metrics are solely from the US online market, and thus should not be represented as the value of the video game absolutely; Is the driving force behind -- as well as symptom of -- retro game collecting as a hobby with a high cost-of-entry and a toxic speculative market; it is the result of the current state of retro game collecting, and that which lets it continue to spiral out of control due to its inaccuracies. (Of course, retro video games ARE popular by their own right, which drives prices up, but the current so-called market regulator has some major flaws that result in artificial inflation. Please watch Pat Contri's Game Boy Rampart video for an example of this happening in the market.)
- Rainwave - Video Game Music Radio: The best OCRemix, chiptune, and game music radio stations on the internet, and they're even community-run!
- RetroRGB: The RGB Modder's Operating Manual. This is a deep, comprehensive primer and resource for anything and everything RGB console modding.
- Seanbaby.com - NES Page & EGM's Uncensored Greatest Hits: Some of the funniest video game column writing out there; especially the NES pages. I highly recommend reading this if you're a fan of early 2000s video game magazines.
- Sega Service Manuals: Sega-16 thread with PDFs and TIFs of many Sega service manuals!
- SNES Maps: A great resource for SNES RPG players!

General Interest
- Abandoned Communities in Newfoundland and Labrador (Google Maps): It is what it is, b'y.
- Attention K-Mart Shoppers: An archive of K-Mart background music (or, musak) tapes, ranging from 1973 on reel-to-reel to 1992 on cassette.
- CBC Music Streams: Really great music playlists, without ads or fees
- Deep Dream: Convert your images into psychedelic Lovecraftian horrors!
- Image-to-Image Demo: Another cool image tool with bizarre outcomes.
- Pizza Hut Sauce (Copycat Recipe): I don't have a Pizza Hut nearby, so I use this recipe to replicate it. Tastes great! Cant imagine Pizza Hut making it as good as me, though.
- WordsEye: In this photo tool, type your imagination to life in a primitive 3D scene! Pretty neat!
