Topic: The Chit-Chat Thread

Site bugging out, this happened to me before...wasn't able to do anything, was annoying. :c

Oh in other news, I got Skyrim for the Switch.

I have never ever played an elder scrolls game before. So let's see how that goes...

Ugh, so many Switch games, I can't get any of them. TwT
...Well I could, but my money is going towards computer upgrades...maybe I'll be able to get Hyrule Warriors. Trying not to spend as much each month.

@Nicolai gonna need you to verify your Discord bud.

@YummyHappyPills Yeah, that was me you gave me Das Boot to

I wondered why that thread was still open. I decided to make a cheeky post before it was locked, but it got blown to oblivion instead. shrugs Oh well.

I've been trying to create comedic entertainment and I'd like for as many to view as possible. I'm trying to gain a bit of a following. I will put my social media accounts in my signature.

I was so excited with my purchase 1-2-Switch yesterday.
I had tried Telephone mini games and other Mini games with my friend.
Back at home, i played 1-2-Switch by Solo, but i controlled both of my Joy Cons.
Yes, 1-2-Switch can be played by Single player, even i have to move both Joy Cons.

@Meowpheel Noice, Teh Elldah Skrols Gems R Teh Besst

ok so who wants to be my valentine this year?

@ogo79 Pick me up at 7. I'll wear something sexy. Don't expect to get lucky though, I'm not that kind of guy.

....WTF is even happening right now?

So barring a weird error when exiting the program, my old Rollercoaster Tycoon CD actually works on my Windows 10 machine (Windows XP Compatibility mode, it seems I can't go back farther than that). To be honest, I haven't actually saved any scenarios yet though.

And as a laugh, the Hasbro Interactive registration screen that pops up after the install looks ancient. XD

I ask myself that question when I wake up in the mornings half the time, unfortunately.

Also it looks like Hawaii will go one step beyond China and catch "The Overwatch Loophole". Basically when China slapped OW for lottery charges, OW got around it by having you spend money on a separate item, and getting a lootbox as a reward, instead of directly buying a lootbox.

Hawaii is making it so even indirect selling of these things to minors is illegal.

Don't screw with Hawaii

@Tyranexx
I have my brother’s old Star Wars PC games, Tie Fighter and X Wing.... I wonder if I can make them work with XP Compatibility mode, those things are old. I’d try the old Yoda Stories game, but it is on diskette and nothing read those anymore.

....Old Star Wars games...I used to have Galactic Battlegrounds. That was fun, especially the custom maps part. lol
Still hoping Episode I Racer shows up on Steam at some point.

@Luna_110: It's hard to say, really. I've had mixed luck with old PC games back on Windows 7: Some worked fine without a hitch, some errored/bugged out halfway through, and a small handful wouldn't even run. It really seems to depend on the game and what makes it tick. Any game is worth a shot, but whether or not it will work....It can involve a dream, a slight headache, or a horror story. shrug

This is the first old game I've tried running on my new Win10 machine. I might try the original Zoo Tycoon collection sometime in the future since I also managed to track it down.

...And I also need to see if I can track down RCT2 at my parents' place.

....I miss Sim Ant....I enjoyed that back then. No idea how it compares to the SNES version, though. I wonder if that can be found anywhere online.

@Joeynator3000: Internet Archive has a MS-DOS library that includes Sim Ant (another great game, btw; I have a direct link but am unsure if it's against site rules) as well as a plethora of other games (Oregon Trail, Carmen Sandiego, Wolfenstein 3D, Sim City, etc.) It's all done by an in-browser emulator if you're comfortable with that. I've had few problems other than the occasional game that won't load correctly, though the controls and commands take a bit of getting used to at times.

The website is completely safe, and Internet Archive is recognized as a non-profit. It also has an Arcade library that I've tried out. I originally stumbled across it when using its Wayback Machine to look up how some websites used to look back in the day.

Eh, it's fine, I'm guessing it is against the rules. But yeah, aside from the SNES Classic stuff, I'm done with emulators and such. xD
