  1. Hi! It's been I long time. I'll make it simple: I'm looking for some talented and creative person that can do 16 bits graphics and animation, mostly a space/sci-fi elements for a videoclip of a song of mine. This song is totally not related to chiptune, It's just that I'm a retro gamer, love theses graphics the best and I would like to have one videoclip that fits this criteria and as the thematic of this song is ''sleep'' as in ''sleeping ship'' on the last habited mission to save humanity I think it could set a certain mood as serious half dreamy. I'm thinking something quite simple overally, but it will need creativity, maybe it's more complicated than I think as I'm not a programmer so I don't know what I'm talking about and maybe it's too expensive for me so need to speak with pro for what it's all about. Thank you for your interest !
  2. Thank you! I bought myself a SWITCH LITE as a reward
  3. I want a copy please! If you start the sale when I'm at work, I'm fucked. I don't want to be fucked lol. Please keep me a cart, I'm available right now to pay lol
  4. HEY GUYS !!!! I MADE IT I've succeed my course and now I'm working at the hospital. Pretty satisfied!
  5. Most of them are BAD for me. The Metal Jesus gang got me a collecting sickness. I'm super judgemental I know, but I found so much pathetism in some of them with countless useless videos that screams : 'I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO SAYYYY' and I did not wanted to be associated with that type of person/collector. But on the good side, it helped me take the decision of concentrate my collection on the 8 and 16 bits and let go of the rest. However I like games, I have less and less time for them and having simple fun with older games is what is the most convinient for me. Gotta love those old school RPG
  6. I started collecting around 2001. Bought a NES with the Marios and first games I bought then was: Ghost'n'Goblins and Faxanadu. Then the rest is history (in 3 Tomes)
  7. Hi guys! I thought of you a couple of times, but I'm not active. Did not played much games neither. This summer I went back to school. I'm studying in the health domain, I moved 3h drive away, but come back here in the city during the week-end for work. I'm starting my stage at hospital next week. I'm kind of nervous and worried, but up to now it's going fine. Today the job changed my status as partial, I'm not full time/permenant anymore and it makes the changes much more real. In the beginning of the year I did a Union formation and did a panic attack and was scare of doing one in school and that's why I did choose a smaller town, formation center and group to minimise the chance. Since high school I never did any study of any kind because I'm socially defect lol... Right now, I'm pretty proud of myself and mostly proud of taking those chances I never took. If I miss my shot, I'm going to bankruptcy. That's one of the thing that get me so anxious. Do you think I would have to giveaway my game collection if I get there ? Studies and my move slowed down my music projects, but it still going strong and the reason why i did not play much too, my games are still in the city and I don't feel like it when I come here. I must complete Dragon Warrior III and GRIIIIIIINNNNND like I don't grind enough in real life. Before my return to school I started a FACEBOOK page for my music projects and an YOUTUBE account with 2 old projects. Nothing to brag, but it's there and I did nothing with it yet. I'm not the kind of person that wanna to spam every so often, but I think I would need some love. I feel bad to invite people on my pages. Is that weird ? We get so much harassed with everything that I don't think I want to be a part of it, but theses songs (and more coming) dying in my head or computer lead me nowhere except filling up my head to the point of explosion something. Tonight I see it like it: Movies are my inspiration Music is my fuel Games are my escape Thank you all for reading
  8. I traded 4$ for a CIB Snow Brothers. ... never made any trade that is Non-game / game. I wish ! I would be willing to trade hundreds of cd for couple non too expensive games.
  9. I realized that it was the time when I was on the bank after 2 hours of wait. Guest I will buy it on Ebay. I was so pissed that day, that I could not even find this thread.
  10. 8 - They are quite unique (Thanks to the particular voice of Billy Corgan) and influential. I did not followed much their career... Adore is an album that I LOVED from the get go. I did not minded the change of direction, it's quite the opposite then cames Machina which I don't remember much except been disapointed. Did not liked much Siamese Dream neither and I've always found Mellon Collie a bit overated. It got great songs, but it kind of overstays its welcome... I think it could have made a brilliant shorter album. Lately, I've discovered Oceania and I was pretty surprised! I've listened the whole cd and I liked it enough to decide to keep it and it gaves me the desire to listen to their 2 last albums that followed it. Because of the ADORE album and the voice of BC, I've always considerated Smashing Pumpkins one of my musical influence.
  11. Seems that not a lot of person care about it, maybe they find the idea half-baked ahah, but don't worry, I don't need approbation. Just money and time.
  12. Welcome! I did not knew there was such thing like speedrun for games like Pikmin and such. It's a lot of hours. I'm wondering if my little brother know how many hours he has put in Fortnite.
  13. Of course I will let you know I must finish what I started first and it can take some months. There's 2 songs left from a pretty heavy (complex) and long project called EXODD then another project which will be songs composed and demo recorded back in 2000-02. NEVER GIVE UP KIDS !! The second project is less money, time and energy consuming so I will be able to place a song or two of this nameless NES homage project which I totally don't know how it will comes out so I think it should start like that. ...and right now I can see some favorites showing up and out of the lot and it's pretty much unanimous.
  14. Heyyy What's up doc?! Which songs on the list would you prefer I do ?
  15. Hey @ApebitMusic Hope you're doing fine. No, not a compilation, not this time. hum, it is in a way, but with only from my project and my versions of the songs torn apart and broke down by somebody that will not know that he's doing remake of videogame songs and he will just try to bring them elsewhere and add harmonic or what else, some guitars of course! Personally, I think it's a good idea of a concept just to hear new rendition of some of these songs that personally I like and that would go through the creative filter of somebody that will have ''no clue''. And I wondering what you guys think about this idea ?! And from the list of songs, I'm just asking, which ones would you prefer to hear ? To help me decide which one to do. I'm gonna put money on the project, so If I can choose the right songs or most appreciated songs of this list. Rightn now, I'm pushing some personal projects after we're gonna check for a compilation I don't forget you buddy ! The name's so cool ! and from that point of view, which songs would you like to be re-renditionned ?!
  16. Hi guys! Like the title says, I go this idea that I would like to share and I would like to have your point about it. Also, I will list the songs I have in mind because that the ones I've worked over the years. So straight to the point, I have in mind to do ''something'' with these songs. Just ''cover'' or ''redone'' is a bit boring unless maybe if it's a orchestral rendition could have been fun, but it stays the same songs and it's not what I've done anyway. It pretty much sounds 9 to 14 bits heheh I did not try to necessary fits to the original sounds, but it's similar. So what I'm thinking that I could do different is... I could slowdown my versions of the chosen songs to a certain extend and ask a musical collaborator of mine that is not and never been a gamer at all, to remix them as he feel. This way, he could take the songs upfront without any consideration of their background and would, maybe, focus on expected parts and come out with some trippy version of songs we all know ! What do you think about it ? Here's my selection of songs and I cannot do them all because I don't have the money to do so. The title might not be exact but they will be in due time. 1 DRAGON SPIRIT - Title Screen 2 YO NOID - Stage 13 3 BALLON FIGHT - Theme 4 MONSTER PARTY - Dark World 5 ASTYANAX - Redwood 6 XEXYZ - Level 1 7 SHADOWGATE - The Lake 8 AIR FORTRESS - Level 1 Outside 9 MEGA MAN 3 - Shadow Man Theme 10 DYNOWARZ - Title Screen 11 BAD DUDES - Stage 2 12 IMAGE FIGHT - Final Mission 13 DRAGON SPIRIT - Area 9 Boss 14 SHADOWGATE - Enter 15 CASTLEVANIA - Stage 1 16 YO NOID - Stage 1 17 LITTLE SAMSON - Dragon's Theme Voilà!
  17. Good morning @Tabonga ! The explainations go further down the rabbit hole. I do not agree with your comment ''Well in a nutshell something is common only if you designate it as such''. The ''common'' aspect never affected the way I can see or appreciate things. It's just like a reference point in my head. Of course objects have stories and that's what make things worth. ''Common'' can sound pejorative, but not in my mouth. The memories are filled and reflect with symbolism. I like your doorstop by the way The only elephant in my room, to say it like that, is a small elephant scupt in ivory and it's in a nice little metal (maybe brass)box (very hard to open (oepened 1 time only)). My father brought it back from India around the 2000-01. I like little objects. I do have many of those little objects with no apparent logic from one to the other that I don't keep at the same place like a collection, but I think that the emotional/memorial behind them make them a bit more valuable to me and I think that I could consider them as a collection
  18. Thank you for the words @Tabonga I love my collections and they are great as I have good tastes ! When I say ''nothing special'' I mean that dvd and cds\vinyls collection are pretty common or ''classic collection'' . If somebody tells me that he's collecting dvd, I know what to aspect, dvd, opposite to someone that tell me he's collecting Mr. T stuff, I totally don't know what to expect from that so it makes it more interesting to me and because of that, I lower the importance of showing my dvd and cd collections. It's always nice to see the varied tastes of other people, but I'm always amazed to see what people collect, it's so fun, it's beautiful ! It's so personal !
  19. Hey guys you have great collections ! I can't take picture now, but I'll try to do soon. Beside retro videogames, I collect movies in dvd, blu-ray and I have no preference as I buy used in pawnshops and thriftstores, if I find a movie I want, it its clean, I pick it up whatever it is! I collect cd too, but this collection is dormant. Right now I'm downsizing my cd collection by hundreds and the same for movies. I don't see my books as a collection, but I definitely find them precious. Oh ! I would consider my like 40-50 comic books as a collection. Mostly those from my childhood. Some new stuff, but mainly some '90 Garfield, Leonard, Asterix, Spirou et Fantasio, Gaston Lagaffe, Cubitus, Marsupilami, etc yeah I know more 'colorful ''kiddy'' comic books then mature hyper violent, but I do have things like Zodiac Killer and Zombies Vs Robots Adventures. My collections are nothing specials as some I just saw in this thread.
  20. I'm under that impression too. I give it 10 years from now before the real shit will comes down.
  21. Hey Gloves ! It feels like I did not received a notice for that... but you know, I thought this through and it was a possibility that cames to my mind half of the sages with full of cool knowledge are here, the other half are on Stolenhistory !!
  22. That's the problem. I like ugly cinematic italian exploitation serie Z influenced rip-off movies. ... It's not that bad !
