  1. As far as the poll goes, I'm down the middle. Seems to me you are both are in violation of the one rule that governs these situations: Bros before hoes. Yes, he should have told you told you what was coming down the line. Especially given the time frame. Since it's not spelled out here, I understand this was kept secret for some 8 to 12 weeks. That's pretty fucked. However, you must also concede that your woman put you both in this shitty situation and essentially jeopardized your friendship on top of the breakup by asking him to keep it quiet. I know it's tough to find fault in the woman you love, even if she breaks your heart, but she unnecessarily placed you both in a very shitty position bringing him into the middle of your own relationship. It wasn't really any of his business in the first place. My guess is that, whether consciously or not, she wanted him to tell you so she wouldn't have to deal with the confrontation and end up being the bad guy. If he tells you, then it places the need to address the issue in your court and she doesn't even have to bring it up. Except that's not what happened because she made him "promise" not to tell you. And said friend, a man of his word, actually kept his promise. So now here you are breaking the bro code by placing her above your friend due to the way she manipulated you both. Again, I think it was unintentional on her part, and she absolutely would not wish the current outcome. But she ultimately comes out of this unscathed in comparison. My advice is that you should both apologize to each other for being shitty, have a beer, and sock each other hard as fuck in the arm and get over it.
  2. No real interest but I'd play it if it was in the room.
  3. Jeez, it's getting all anti-semantic up in here. Ok, I'll see myself out now.
  4. Idk man. I'm sure I could've got at least a couple more extra lives out of it. I def died a few times on accident before time expired.
  5. Was my favorite Zelda game until Minish Cap, though I didn't play Link to the Past until later as an adult. Easy 8 for me but I don't know if I would I would recommend to fans of later Zelda games. I feel like the younger crowd wouldn't "get it."
  6. I'd be willing to trade my copy of Star Keeper for a SBP...
  7. Doesn't the physical release come with some bonus content though? As far as I'm aware, it remains undumped to the general public. Otherwise you could just slap it on a PowerPak/Everdrive.
  8. Gotcha. NESDev is another forum dedicated to NES development and homebrewers. For the past decade NESDev has hosted a homebrew competition where brewers submit games, demos, apps, tools, etc. and entries are all featured in the follow up volume of Action 53 available from Infinite NES Lives. We have some overlap with members there but it's more of a technical forum with tons of dev talk and resources. You can always check out the progress of the competition games and play the early builds too. There have been some notable entries that have gone on to full releases. Nebs N Debs and Twin Dragons come to mind. The forthcoming Action 53 Vol 4 features entries from the 2017 and 18 competitions and will include Streemerz' return to physical cart. The entire package is also available for download here.
  9. Typo resolved. Your loss I guess. Seems like a silly reason not to try something. So are you never going to try any of the NESDev competition titles because of the Action 52/53 association?
  10. Nah, man. It ain't like that. Streemerz was originally a developed as a NES-like flash game as part of a game jam where participants attempted to remake titles from Action 52. It's a pretty radical upgrade to the original Streemers and was very well received. It really borrows more from Bionic Commando than it does from it's namesake but it is not a hack. Faux Games then ported it to the Nintendo and it was featured as the flagship title of the first NESDev Action 53 compo cart. Coming full circle as it were. Gameplay is fun, controls are tight, and great humor throughout. Streemerz is essential homebrew. Get it! Here: https://www.fauxgame.com/ Or as part of the whole Action 53 download set at INL here: http://www.infiniteneslives.com/action53.php Here's the original flash version: http://www.superfundungeonrun.com/?page_id=763
  11. Similar to @VegHead, I consolidated/refinanced in 2019 through Laurel Road/Mohela for a 5 year term. Looked at SoFi and a couple others. Laurel Road gave me the best rate for the payments I wanted to make. Stellar customer service from their end. Nelnet fucked up and returned the initial payoff and gave me some fierce runaround but LR did everything they could to get it corrected.
  12. I'm a fan of general celebrity douchebaggery, so I dig it. Not going to pay for any of his fights anyway. Hope he gets a real fight soon. Pretty funny how he was awarded the "title." Lol.
