Hard at work on getting the complete archive of my 3 year history of streaming onto YouTube as a result of Twitch's decision to cap highlighted streams at 100 hours (I have almost 2400 hours). Considering subscribing and checking out some history! Jan - April 2022 done! youtube.com/@zopharchives

I've created a quick 3 minute how-to if you're a content creator affected by the Twitch announcement to cap all highlights and uploads at 100 hours. Help me get the word out! youtu.be/05Ei3KeuYOg?...

Alright, this one's mine. Do I hold the VOD for most highlighted streams? Thanks Twitch!

"This just downright sucks". Yep, this character understands what it's like to play this piece of crap.

My favorite NES game of all time. Enjoy the earliest known emulated recorded speedrun for Faxanadu in just over 1 hour from way back in 1999! youtu.be/fFO9Nem4HEg

Would you believe me if I told you I've never completed this game, and only played through a little past Midgar? Now you can watch possibly the only JRPG fan that hasn't completed the original 1997 FF7. Live now.

A great article about Zophar's Retro Rewind Episode 2! By the way, if you haven't checked it out yet... what are you waiting for?

Another game in the books, finished off Final Fantasy V in 18 streams / 63 hours. Great game, very underrated!

A 1999 deathless Ghosts 'n Goblins run in NESticle you say? I say. NSM Contest #3 (deathless 1-loop Ghosts 'n Goblins run in 17 minutes), as featued in Zophar's Retro Rewind Episode 3. Enjoy. www.youtube.com/watch?v=5wZn...

I never have to play this freaking game ever again. Warning: language, Dragon Warrior II.

Castlevania II, one of the original speedruns via emulation in 1999.... now on the good ol' tube! Maybe you remember this from the first episode of Angry Video Game Nerd - but I think this was a great game with some... questionable localization choices. www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQF3...

The very first speedrun contest on Zophar's Domain was Metroid for the NES. Do you remember it? youtu.be/vWJdifTTrzM

I couldn't hold it in any longer. Don't destroy me. ;) www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ah7k...

@empressantares.bsky.social - “Elves!!!!!”

And Final Fantasy V was going so well...

You wanted it, you got it. The original Legend of Zelda no-sword speedrun, recorded back in 1998, now released. www.youtube.com/watch?v=DrNo...

The full Legend of Zelda NoSword run from 1998 is about 3 hours and 10 minutes long and I've recorded the entire NSM to a regular video format. if I put it out there... would you watch the whole run?

I had a ton of fun making Zophar's Retro Rewind Episode 2: Speedrunning in the 90s - and hope you all enjoy it!
