I actually use my meticulously manicured cocaine nail that I don't actually use for cocaine, and drag is across the vinyl to -FEEL- my music in a more personal way. How's that for hipster.

I've been lurking on this hard on Twitter Glad to see a thread on it here!!

So cool/good to hear. "Cultural Merit" XD

Hey, this is pretty cool! GLWS! I'd love to have something like this

Based on the people mentioned and some deductive reasoning, I feel that's a narrow-minded statement. Having a product done, or mostly done, but not being able to eat the up front costs of production, let alone being crippled by unsold merchandise is a big factor that I argue Kickstarter is still for (not to mention getting the word out there about your product, especially when it's so niche). It's not like we are talking about a huge company (or even just a reasonably well established/well funded one), completing a full game and then using Kickstarter to secure preorders of a game they could easily release on their own. We are talking about hobbyists with limited resources and reach, wanting to get a cool/unique project out to the masses, better than they would be able to on their own. Not saying your opinion is wrong or invalid, just that I strongly disagree with it.

Will it be on bootleg vinyl?

Yeah, MAGFest is my favorite convention overall for sure. 24 hours a day of stuff to do (and stuff you dont find at other conventions), nice venue/area, pretty good guests. Vendor floor sucks if you are looking for just games, but there is a -lot- of other fun stuff that I think is worth while (it is a pretty good sized vendor floor overall).

About 95% going. I demand zi bring me an advance copy of Music for Lovers Gamers!

The whole point of starting VGS has been undone!! Noooooo!!!! J/k Great to see you man!

Just saw this pop up on FB a little but ago and Hope's younposed about it on here. Very cool!

Huge congrats, my man.

I -may- try to go... not sure. Wife wanted to fo something that day as well... hm. Obligations...

It's the last sealed NES KOEI title indeed to complete my set!!!

Unfff

I had someone trade me a 85+ Metal Gear for my 85 in a multi title VGA trade. He seemed to regret it a lot later - though he did get another title he was really really after in the trade, so it couldn't have been that bad

Naw - I love the original Dynasy Wars arcade game. One of my fav cabs as a kid.

Pretty much that each time you play, the programming makes levels unique, instead of pre-planned entities. Think the dungeons in the Diablo franchise.

Lol hax.

Legs yes, but feet are variable.

Word, yo. Also, welcome Tim!! Reconsider going to MAGFest so we can start more fires under bridges!

Wow, that's pretty cool! I always love seeing people using the NES in new and novel (har har) ways.

I kind of wish Nintendo promoted it in their virtual console type library. Of course that would also turn their gaze to the homebrew community overall, and I don't know how that would all shake out...

There was something like that over on NA at some point. I think it is important to keep track of upcoming and in the process games, for sure. Could kind of be a partner to this thread (can move from one to the other when it finally goes on sale).

I'm very excited about homebrew making it to the Switch, my only concern (which I think has been a common concern with porting homebrew to modern systems) is finding a clear and consistent way to inform people that these games are made for, and within the constraints, of older systems. A great game is great, no matter the platform it's designed for. I just know it's really really hard to give modern, and/or less informed gamers all of the expected bells and whistles of modern games, let alone explain sufficiently why they cant have them (but still be successful and not have your product rated poorly).
