Hello, everyone!
I have finally gotten around to creating a new video for you guys! I decided to explore a 108-in-1 Game Boy cartridge I bought from eBay with a couple of my friends. The results were… Interesting, to say the least.

Have a great day!

Hello, everyone!
We now have the ability to sign up to a newsletter! You can either click here or go to the side menu and click “Get Updates.” All you need to sign up is your first name (or a pseudo-name, if you want) and an email address that you want to be contacted at. In addition to this new feature, this website is also now using reCAPTCHA from Google to prevent spam. With this change comes a new privacy policy, so be sure to check that out if you want to know how Mailchimp and reCAPTCHA uses your data and how we will be using that data.
One last minor thing: We re-ordered the side menu so it looks less cluttered.
Enjoy! Have a flippin’ awesome day!

Hello, all!
I have just completed some amazing additions and changes to this site that I think y’all will thoroughly enjoy!
Firstly, I changed around the color palette on the website so it works better with certain elements that I added. The colors are brighter and more pastel in nature, with text color now being darker to accommodate. For those of you using a browser plugin that turns everything into dark mode, don’t worry; everything looks great on that end as well. The reason for doing this is because I realized that the previous color palette didn’t work with the user profile system.
Secondly, I have overhauled the current user profile system to be more cosmetic in nature. The U.I. has been changed to look more modern and user profiles have more cosmetic items that can be displayed, such as your email, a nickname, and a description of yourself, along with your birthday and your gender if you want to change that. And if you’re worried about privacy, you can set the info to be viewed by everyone, registered members, your friends, or yourself only. WordPress does store this information, but only for the purpose of displaying it on your profile. You also have the option to download the information WordPress has stored from your account if you so choose. You may notice that there are actually two profiles that are official Flippin’ Fun Video Games profiles. The first one, michael2001, is an admin account that was included with this domain. The second one, ffvdgames, is my personal WordPress account that has the exact same permissions as michael2001. General announcements, such as this one, will come from michael2001, while personal statements will come from ffvdgames. Personal signatures will still be a thing so you know exactly who’s telling you what.
I would also like to announce that I am slowly, but surely, working on adding a newsletter system to the website through Mailchimp. The only things that will be stored through Mailchimp are your first name, your preferred email address, and your last name if you choose to provide that. This system will be used to email you about everything that I am doing, along with things you may have missed and some things I am actively promoting. You will be able to sign up through a page in the side menu once I’m finished setting everything up. Emails will be sent whenever I make a new post, update dev logs, make announcements such as this post, etc. This will be added by the end of June.
I hope you guys enjoy all these things coming your way! If you have any suggestions, feedback, or concern, feel free to shoot me an email, write me a Tweet, ping/DM me on Discord, or leave a comment on this post and I’ll do my best to respond ASAP.
Have a flippin’ awesome day!

I have added a support page to the website. On this page, you can submit support tickets about what goes wrong with our products, including, but not limited to, this website. All you have to do is enter your name, email address, any error codes you received, and a description of what went wrong. You also have to consent to us storing your info so we can respond.
If that doesn’t float your boat, we also have a support text and voice channel in our official Discord server. There is a similar ticket system in place in the text channel titled “#support,” along with the ability to talk directly with me and any relevant developers about the issue you’re experiencing with our products in the voice channel titled “Live Support🔶”
I hope this addition will help you keep your focus on gaming!
