They might just want key staff to stay off recruiters’ radar before development is complete. Doing a high-profile project with Nintendo will probably raise the profile of their studio quite a bit.

I have the 2017 Switch remaster, but I’m definitely going to pick this up too.

Not having a nose is probably an asset in a medieval war camp.

Up voted for recommending real Roland hardware. I have an MT-32, CM-32L, and SC-55mkII to cover all my compatibility bases.

I was bummed when Mega Man Mania was mysteriously canceled. I wish this were an official project, but I’ll take it. I just hope they don’t make any gameplay or (let’s call it) story modifications and stick to upgraded visuals only.

I don’t know what that patch is, sorry.

Just a note for anyone else, it’s also on GOG, DRM-free. $6 currently but it goes on sale.

My screen is 5K, but I have it scaled up to the second largest size so my eyes don’t hate me.

It’s because kids people in their 20s are the ones making these games. At work I’m constantly asking them to increase their font size when they’re screen sharing.

Do you have a list? What condition are they in?

Everyone gangsta till Sharkey shows up

I bought three games and two manga adaptations from this collection, so nothing super rare. But they were all in very good condition.

Unfortunately there’s just not that much appetite at museums for displaying the crazy in-depth game collections of some folks. As the article says, most such museums are geared at showing an overall history. If only I were a multimillionaire who could afford to build a museum and put in place enough security to guarantee the safety of the items on display…

Discord did not answer questions about whether these users were repeat copyright infringers, had received any previous warnings, or were forwarded any takedown requests.

Yeah look, this isn’t how DMCA takedowns work. Why would anyone think you get a practice round when it comes to copyright infringement?

And it doesn’t matter for Discord if it was valid DMCA or not; Discord isn’t going to take up your cause with their legal team. Why would anyone think they would? That’s the job of the entity that was acted on.

(And let’s set aside that there’s a good chance it probably was valid for the reasons they briefly alluded to in the article. It just takes one person doing something dumb.)

Blaming Discord is silly. Any corporation would do the same. Don’t depend on a corporation providing a service for free if you don’t want to be subject to their judgment. There’s a reason we’re all on Lemmy.

Wow! This is one of the most impressive things I’ve seen in recent memory. Subscribed to see more updates about this

This author seems to lament that its a computer doing it, but the way the summary functions is really no different than if a human did the same thing.

It’s entirely different. Scale matters.

You say this like you’re correcting the person you’re responding to, but they didn’t dispute this. Both can be true.

They didn’t want you to rent it multiple times. They wanted you to rent it once, be unable to beat it, but be intrigued enough that you purchased the game from a store. If you could play and beat a game in a single rental, there was little incentive to buy it (so the developers thought, and I imagine had some data to back it up).

Ouch! For anyone else reading this thinking about playing the PR versions, just a note that I played through 3-6 with no issues whatsoever!

I was maybe interested in Life on Mars as a take on Super Metroid despite the short play time, but then the developer got super defensive in the comments section about Joe’s thoughts on Life on Earth.

Can I imagine? Yeah, I lived it. Even Internet browsers used to be text only. My first modem was <1 kbit/s. (For contrast, the last dial-up modem speeds were 56,000 kbit/s, and today speeds are often 1,000,000 kbit/s or more.)

The mouse came before graphical OSes for me, since games used it but games were executed from the command line MS-DOS. Of course DOS was also capable of using a mouse. I didn’t really use an OS GUI until Windows 3.1, which was mostly a novelty at first. That came out in the early '90s. I didn’t have any exposure to Macs until System 7 in the mid-'90s.

My daily driver these days is a MacBook Pro. We’ve come a long way!
