Dov Sherman, thats a name that takes me back. I remember playing that cross dressing cloud KISS doll(Which still works shockingly) back when I was questioning my gender.

Oh my god, I remember this so much! I remember downloading all the games on it, and enjoying them, even if my Japanese was... non-existent at the time. I still played the fuck out of the Disc Station games they had on there.

It's incredibly still there and untouched after a decade. Didn't expect that.

I can't find that Quake 3 mod of Jessie and James from Team Rocket anywhere! The download link on the site doesn't work either!

Back in the 90s the Sailor Moon fan base were fighting to get more episodes dubbed and released in America. It was an uphill battle because it would mean releasing episodes with Sailor Stars in it who blurred gender lines.
