BrewOtaku is a retro homebrew gaming magazine “where new games keep old systems alive”. We cover fresh games for old consoles, handhelds, and computers. Dealing with limitations of very old systems is a passion and an art in itself, and still, coders out there can get the most out of the least and release fresh games regular!

If you happen to be amongst waterpipe smokers, you may enjoy the waterpipe selection from PaffPaff. They have a wide range of high-end quality waterpipes and accessoires – the quality aspect is really a very important one to them as only top notch material is used. These guys have their shop in Karlsruhe, Germany, but you can order online too. Tobacco products are not offered on this page. Please mind smoking is bad for your health.

Kindly notice we got paid to post about this.

If you are one of the few ones here running their own gastronomy business have a look at servier.bar – It’s a German company giving you the ability to create your own menu using QR-Codes. It’s a quite interesting system, so please go ahead and check it out. And yes, this is actually sort of off topic, but maybe interesting to the one or other. They offer a free trail month, so there is nothing to lose. All information is available in German language only yet.
