Whoa there, I don't recall signing up for RULES.

That would be perfect for day to day when I'm not playing Stardew Valley.  If I recall the download isn't much. Is physical still available?

Unfortunately I do not believe physical is available from anywhere anymore.

Please watch Redline, man. 

Minit is great for bite-sized play due to it's minute-long lives.

Nice! i think the girlfriend was thinking about picking it up! I may have to try it!

It's actually a fuckin GAME man, which is refreshing. I mean it's pretty in your face about being an exercise game, but it's definitely a GAME.

Yo Ring Fit Adventure is actually pretty dope. 

Nice! Looking forward to more updates on your collection as it grows.

I dunno that we can call you the new guy here. Well played 

This whole site was actually a clever scheme to eliminate "New Guy" from all your vocabularies.

That’s the kinda shit I’m TALKING about right there, fellas! This is great. Gloves and all who who helped are so rad for putting this together.( is there a thank you thread with credits to all involved yet?) It’s very user friendly so far. The initiative taken and haste in getting it done, truly shows character and dedication. 

No credit thread as yet, but basically anyone on Staff has been involved in one way or another, and none of it possible without them! You can always in lieu of a thanks thread PM the folks on the Staff list (top nav under Browse), or hey - if you feel like it you could always make a thread to sing our praises.

Really appreciate the positivity!

Gloves, how much money would you estimate a feature like this would cost to code?

FYI you can tag people with an "@" symbol - @phart010 Like that! That sends the person a notification that you've called to them.

As for cost to code, we do have some features in mind that I think the community will really love for commerce style stuff (ebay-like). 

Frankly, what you've described would require a complete database of games to create the selection criteria you mentioned, and that's not something we're looking to do juuuuust yet. Potentially down the road. 

For the short term, I don't see why we can't simply use a "WTB" list (see the BST forum) and carry on similarly to before where we can say "I have my list of wants over here". VGS has a very easy to use copy-paste-from-google-sheets feature that will let you manage your want list in a Google Sheet (great cuz now you're not tied to our platform, if we die tomorrow your data isn't lost, it's always in your hands) and just paste the updated list straight into your thread.

Submissions you say? And where would one send such a thing?

For now I'd say toss me a PM. We maaaaaayyyyyyy make a forum at soooooome point for video game art, or something. Not sure.

I just wish it was set in a more interesting section of the timeline. 

Mmmmm noted. The current site header is definitely still kiiiiinda placeholder. More important to launch and have a home I think that have it necessarily be perfect out of the gate.

I'm open to suggestions, as well as... submissions?

I'll fiddle around with it when I get time but I'm quite busy at the moment so may take some... time.

And just to add some controversy to the thread...  the N64 library on the whole is superior to the SNES library.  Fight me

Don't make me add "Dislike"s just for you. 

Well jeez maybe don't BLITZ to the other side of the page!

No but seriously, it's possible that the page is still loading as you scroll down and perhaps your browser thinks "when page loaded, be at X position".

Are you seeing this just on threads? Or all over the place?

Welcome. I’m looking forward to our first Thanksgiving.

Thanksgiving was earlier this month bro.

I was gonna make a Nintendo Switch joke but OP beat me to it. Frick.

What are the differences in subscription level besides $?

Nothing at the moment. I just know that some people have asked me to be able to give more than $5/month so I wanted to let them do so. You DO get access to a sub-only forum, and in there I have a thread asking for feedback on what sort of stuff people would like for different tiers, if anything.

Is that $45 a month/week/year/day?

$45/mth.

That said, to Jone's point - it can definitely go up pretty significantly based on usage. Early days!

It’s ok guys. Jeff can’t read your PMs here.

I can though, so WATCH IT!

Hey all!

One of the most-requested features is "let me throw money at you", and who are we to deny you that pleasure? We've added the "Store" tab to the main navigation at the top of the site with both a Donation and a Subscription feature, as well as links to view and manage your transactions.

For transparency's sake, right now the total costs of running the site itself are around the $45 USD mark, and I've added $20 to that total for our Donation Goals to account for image hosting costs (moving to Amazon S3 soon).

But Gloves, what if you get so many donations that you have excess funds?

Damn that'd be cool eh? You guys are too cool. There are no SET plans at the moment and we're always open to feedback. My CURRENT plan is to pool excess funds for a rainy day where monthly subs/donations don't meet the requirements; BUT if we find ourselves really just sitting on a bunch of funds I want to put it straight back into the community with physical prizes to give out to Event winners, maybe something nice for top contributors, and potentially some sort of homebrew support fund.

Let me know your thoughts, and thanks once again for all the support!

I'm absolutely getting this as well as the dock, but honestly I think I already have basically all the games I need. I may consider looking into some "best of" lists to bulk up the handheld collection a bit, and perhaps dip a little into these other non-Nintendo handhelds to see how they hold up. Really excited to get my hands on it!

Here's a quick example copy-paste from Google Sheets to whet your appetite. I do think it'd work quite well for you, rather than trying to manage multiple threads:

We also have little icons under our roles. (which will be updated to other images soon) 

That said, we'll consider a color or something to really drive it home, potentially.
