Re: Random: This Game Boy Zero Uses a Raspberry Pi for Lovely Retro Gaming

tigermask

@Snargledon I'd imagine it uses the Retro Pie image, which basically turns the Pi into a multi console emulator. I've got mine setup with that and was really considering putting it in a Gameboy but couldn't work out how everything would fit into the case. I've just got it hooked up with a clone SNES controller and a wireless one too.

Re: Review: Putty Squad (3DS)

tigermask

Amazon UK have it listed for £30 despite the original pre-order price at around £19.99. It seems to be in stock too. There are a few big bugs once you've completed Marathon Mode that won't allow you to load or save using the feature, which doesn't seem to be a problem because it auto saves/loads anyway!
Also, System 3 have teased SpotPass levels based on Super Putty for SNES but the time it took them to release this, I'm not sure if I'll hold my breath.

Re: Fire Pro Wrestling Creator Masato Masuda Passes Away Aged 48

Wow! This is a shock for a guy so young. I'd played Fire Pro for years and even created a few game patches for the GBA versions. Fire Pro Returns was an excellent end to the series (I agree with @GuitarAnthony the XBLA version was an abortion). If you're interested in wrestling, I would strongly suggest picking up any of them and having a go. RIP Masato Masuda

Re: Nintendo Pocket Football Club Confirmed for 17th April in Europe

tigermask

I've never been a big fan of football games with the exceptions of World Cup '98 and Premier Manager 98/99 (Won both of them in Chelsea official magazine!), but this could break my 10 year streak of not playing them. It combines RPG elements with football which sounds pretty fun and Level 5 are boss, I own every one of their GUILD games and like the lot.

Re: This Video Brings Back Festive Sega Memories of the '90s

@DerpSandwich I got Sonic 2 and Revenge of Shinobi with my Mega Drive. I could spend ages rattling on with anecdotes but I'll bombard them on my wife. My uncle and I had this Game Master trailer video that we watched at least 3 times a week before we had Mega Drives. I was so hyped, even Greendog looked good!

Re: Club Nintendo Rewards Are Updated for December

tigermask

I don't want to moan because I've received a splendid set of Nintendo-themed hanafuda cards, an Animal Crossing soundtrack, a 'Year of Luigi' coin and Game&Watch Volume 1 for DS but....
Why don't Europe get free games too? The majority of the stuff on there is now old stock that isn't going to move (DSi cases for example). I don't want to be ungrateful but it is a bit of a raw deal of Europe's part.
