Wishlist (not immediate of course) for future updates:
4th level building increase the cap on inclines and bridges an additional room (or a second house/building you can buy and customize) and maybe allow one or two more villagers?
I would be happy with a starter compromise of a Wrestlefest/WWF Superstars style game with a large roster of current and legend wrestler (to h*ll with "Superstars" that's a f'n Vince term, they're wrestlers darn it).
The modding community is HUGE for the AKI engine games (like No Mercy). If they can accomplish the stuff they have, then a multi million dollar company could easily give us an upgraded No Mercy engine game with a Fire Pro level character customization system.
That would be the end all be all of modern wrestling games!
Picking up my favorite physical games over the course of the next few months so I’ll have a library ready to go for it (been emulating for years)
I’m almost done already for games I want to own (Mario World+All-Stars, Mario RPG, DKC trilogy - got the SFC trilogy for $18 shipped no really need for English text lol, and got a good deal on a Turtles in Time). Will be enough to tide me over between it and the Hakchi2’ed SNES Classic until (if he does it) Kevtris releases SNES cores for it to play games from the SD slot.
If Hakchi2 can change the menu text, I’d pick it up, heck I probably still would have picked it up if not for Kevtris and Analogue dropping the news on the Super NT this week. All my extra gaming money for the next few weeks went towards it
This is what I’ve been waiting for ever since Kevtris announced he was working on other projects once the hi-def NES Kit and Analogue NT came out! Already preordered one!
Can’t wait but my SNES Classic will definitely tide me over in the mean time
So for someone who is a bit of an RPG noobie (only experience I have is Super Mario RPG, don’t judge, I had much different tastes as a kid/teenager/adult) but I’ve been getting an itch to give some of these classics a try (especially now with the SNES Classic). Should I grind through Earthbout first since it seems more noob friendly and then jump into stuff like Mana and FFIII or start with Mana as my next step into the 16-Bit era RPGs?
The one thing I discovered with that, is that you have to hold whatever your button combo is for a second or two (by default it’s down + select). I thought it wasn’t working the first time I tried it lol. It’s smart though, it tries to keep people from accidentally resetting back to menu
I added another 30 games to mine. Based off the list of working games, I’m probably done until I jump into Super Famicom stuff, but a lot of it hasn’t been tested yet, so I’ll give it a week or two before delving into those
More than likely clone. With the price of the RetroAVS being what it is (and it’s only an FPGA for NES/Famicom) there’s no way this is FPGA for NES AND SNES.
Another clone, another [removed] piece of hardware
@Tibob yeah, I probably should get on that myself. There are the obvious ones (DKC 2 and 3, Chrono Trigger, Super Mario All-Stars, TMNT Turtles in Time, Mega Man X2 and X3 - if the emulator can handle it) I’m gonna try to keep mine around 70-80 as well. Should be more than enough for the plug and play set up
That’s me. I have a US one and a European one on the way. I might try for a Japanese one just for the box art, but I’m in no dire need. Just gotta decide which one I wanna hack and which one I dont
Got an American (which should be in my hands today) and a European one that was shipped yesterday from Game.UK
I even stocked up on Wii Super Famicom controllers (bought 4 over the course of the summer) so I can save the originals that came with the system (thank you extension cord)
The entire licensed US library is around 1gig, so if there’s only 512MB of Storage (less once you take into account formatting, and preexisting games/software) you won’t be able
To put he entire library on it, BUT there’s plenty of room to put the top 100-200 games on the system, plus some import gems and compatable translations/hacks. So, it’s more than the average person would ever really play though in a life time
got lucky and got a UK one on Game.UK a few hours ago...had to sit through an hour of site crashes and whatnot to get in on it though. Now to get a US one, hopefully...
didn't feel like fighting and hoping with US retailers on the Player 2 (original) Bayonetta, so I preordered it through Game.UK for $25 (us) shipped. Been wanting reasonably priced Bayonetta figures (even if they are in Amiibo form). The alternative is the really expensive Play Arts Kai figure or statue that each fetch anywhere from $150 to $500 on ebay (screw that). got the regular Bayonetta (From the second game) at Gamestop.
@Xaessya pretty much this. Get the new Super Famicom japanese 3DS and be able to play english games on it (cause F*** us is why they wont release something like that here in the US) :-/
for the games it's good for, it's fine (Mario Maker, etc)
but for the games I play (Mario Kart, Smash Brothers, DKC TF) I don't want that bulky thing in my hands...I'd rather use wiimote/nunchuck or pro controller...
on the bright side, they'll be $100 before next holiday season (if the NX indeed drops next fall)so it'll be easy to enjoy some of the steller titles that are out now for less
I kinda hope the new Apple TV has gaming support for IOS titles, I have several that I'd like to play on a bigger screen (Zen Pinball and Pinball Arcade, Pac-Man Championship Edition DX + , Horizon Chase and a few more.
such great memories behind this game. my first playing of it came one summer as a preteen. Went to my aunt and uncle's house in Virginia with a couple of my cousins for a week. Was my first exposure to NES Batman, Super Mario 3, Lethal Weapon 2 and Big Trouble in Little China (rented them on VHS). Needless to say a great week!
I'm all for the freemium model, I can deal with 3 30second ads 3 times in a 25 minute window. But, the only complaint I have is the same d&#m ad (sometimes all 3 ads in one commercial break).
that being said, when winter rolls around, I'm probably doing premium. $60 for a year of HD, Ad free anime is an insane deal!
Mario Maker (and in a smaller capacity, Wooly World) were the only things out of E3 (across all platforms) that remotely appealed to me...probably just getting older and set in my ways/bored with modern gaming (compared to games from my/our past)...
@Kaboom yeah, those would be my top choices too, but seeing as Nintendo don't release shirts above a XL, the Mario Kart 8 soundtrack would definitely be my pick of the liter
Yep, f**k em, I was gonna go for them all, but Nintendo bit itself in the @$$ on this one, half of my wave 3 is getting sold once I get them in and I'm already in the process of offloading a few characters I have already...
jesus tap dancin crackers....i swear to god nintendo...can't even get something as simple as a toy release right....I love you, but you're making it very hard to stay supportive of new products...
f'n stupid that nintendo region locks....I wanna play Taiko no Tatsujin on the Wii U, but nooooooooooooooo, stupid US only games....so I have to stick to my soft modded original wii and the 5 japanese releases on that system
