This laptop is going to emulate the experience of watching my parents fight, throw my 14 year old sister out of the house, and eventually seperate, all while having no friends, and being an athiest attending a catholic school???
…nah, I’m good.
Which is about to get a whole lot harder with sony/nintendo shutting down rom sites and abandonware sites. It means you’ll need to have the original media the games came on.
And hopefully you can find that copy of Warcraft 2, Tides of Darkness on a cd thats not TOO scratched up.
“This way! No THAT WAY!!!”
Found Stone Cold Steve Austin.
Is it the kind that can use amiibo? I got a dollar!
I sold most of my consoles because of emulation.
Are you even allowed to be here? I feel like that’s cause to revoke your retro gamer card.
It’d be interesting to see your report after you test it.
report after testing
“I don’t know how it got this out of hand, but somehow the entire city is now on fire.”
Its no coincidence that the 80s was the decade of greed and indulgence, and it was the same decade the power glove was released, but never replicated.
From THAT distance? I don’t see why there would be. The most inaccurate thing about the NES Classic was it’s rediculously short cable.
The original was like "Hey, want enough cable to throw out your window, into your neighbors house, and they play from their bedroom? WE GOT YOU!!!
I’m exaggerating quite a bit, but it helps paint the difference between 80s and 2010s.
I fell in love with the concept of this game instantly. I think they will probably spin off these concepts into it’s own series. Or at least I hope they do.
I feel a lot can be done with the whole enemy spawning thing. Obviously I haven’t played it, but I bet it’s going to merely open the window to it’s full potential. Forget the tables, and plants…I think you could have a whole game type where the whole thing is just being essentially kamiek (from the mario series).
If you have enough enemy types, and some kind of balancing system, I think that would be cool. Make it so you CAN just spawn endless guards…but maybe it’s not the best choice. You can still DO it…you can do anything. It’s a modern Zelda game after all. But some situations might make more sense to use 2-3 of one enemy type rather than 500 of another. But you do you.
I’m just so hyped for this game. 3 days before my birthday! I may be turning 41, but I’ll get MYSELF a birthday present. And maybe an ice cream cake.
Looking at the motions of the actual people playing, this looks really weird.
Anyone else watch and think “ok, great, new game added! And for free! Buuuuuut…it doesn’t actually look that fun to play…”
Especially after having just shut down Vimms Lair.
“Nintendo is proud to announce Mario’s Mother 3!”
It’s mother 3, but with sprite swaps. Just like Super Mario Bros 2 (usa). The main characters are replaced with Mario, Luigi, Toad, and Princess Peach.
The trans gypsies that they’re so worried about are replaced with individually different looking toads, since toads are all each a seperate unique gender (this is straight from Nintendo years ago).
And the whole world is like “none of this makes sense…”
“Its running a P3 at 1GHz, 512MB of ram, and an ATI Xpert98 with 8MB of memory.”
Stop. PLEASE! 15 year old me in the year 2000 can only get SO erect!
Uhhhhhh…none? I’m 40, and suck at video games. Not because I’m old (shut up), but because I’ve always sucked at video games. I still haven’t beaten Super Mario Bros 3. I was there as it happened. That was my generation.
What’s wrong with letting us terrible gamers enjoy a game??? Kirby and Yoshi games are the BEST!!!
This makes me sad. Because this post is basically, “hey, if you weren’t alive at the time, this is what this iconic game manual looks like.”
And granted, I guess thats EVERY post on this sub…
Maybe I’m just having a sad day. Because I love the content. I don’t mean to imply I’m anti-this post.
I’m just like “yeah…it’s the manual…just like every game ever gets…”
And then I hear Jon Lajoie singing at me “BUT YOU WERE WROOOOOOOOOONG!!!”
Games today don’t get manuals, and I feel like an old man yelling at clouds…
Alright, yeah. I can get behind that.
…ok, I’m moving into this room. Reddit loves Nutella. What snack food does Lemmy love, that I should bring?
The comedian in me wants to say cocaine, but lets face it…Lemmy is a bunch of linux nerds. I HIGHLY doubt cocaine is what would best represent this platform.
…so what are we thinking? Oreos? I got some potatoe chips in the cabinette.
If that had been me, I honestly would have taken a shit on the rug, smeared it in, and THEN turned the thermastat way up.
You ruin the carpet. You make your dad clean a mess. AND you touch the thermastat which dads hate.
Is this a “Not enough connections” problem? Or an “I’m having a midlife breakdown, and an abundance of disposable income”?
Because shit…I can get behind the second one. A friend who has TOO MUCH MONEY to spend, and a love for retro gaming? Hell yeah!
Throw in a 24 pack of beer, and we got a night where I’m gonna kick your ass in Goldeneye007 on N64!!! No oddjob.
I used to watch this guy. Then about 6 years or so ago. Then one video he gets on, and starts berating his viewers for sending him gifts, and fan art.
His explaination was something along the lines of him not having enough space for all the stuff. And that’s fine. I understand not having space.
But then he just goes ON AND ON AND ON about it. In a pretty disrespectful manner.
He could have just said something like "As a side note, while I appriciate everybody thinking of me, I just don’t have the space for it all.
So if you’d like to send me art, I would much prefer digital art over something physical. I love the enthusiasm, I just have nowhere to put it…"
That would have been understandable.
Instead, he said something more along the lines of “I’m getting way too much fan packages from you guys. LOOK AT MY LIVING ROOM!!! I can’t take it all! This needs to stop! It’s making me angry. You guys are tweeting me that I don’t thank you for your hard work. I haven’t even opened the box! How am I supposed to know what you sent me???”
And ever since then, I’ve seen him as an unappriciative dick. I understand the need to stop the incoming flow of packages coming in, but there’s a nice way to do that.
