  1. I have a Switch and PS4. I play Nintendo stuff on the Switch and watch youtube and blurays on the PS4. edit: To be clear those are my only modern consoles. I generally play games mostly on my older stuff and mister.
  2. Battletoads and Battletoads Double Dragon. They both have the speeder bike sections and BDD also has the shooter stage.
  3. Do games like Legendary Wings or Lifeforce count? I'm guessing no because they're still shooters in both modes? NES: TMNT Laser Invasion Base Wars Rygar
  4. I'm just playing the translated famicom games right now. Thanks for the recommendation though. Honestly, I stink at strategy games, but I'm having a lot of fun with these.
  5. Today I discovered Fire Emblem. What have I been doing with my life?
  6. LOL If that was the main storyline instead, I would definitely be a Silent Hill fan.
  7. I never really liked the Silent Hill games. I always preferred the sci-fi horror of RE and Parasite Eve.
  8. I think you should clarify that in the rules a little better.
  9. It would be interesting to know if you can microwave the hamster or not in this version.
  10. I don't have any problems with the pro controller's D-pad. That said, 8bit-do controllers are awesome. I recommend them.
  11. Today I learned the name Mario is Slavic and means hammer. Just wanted to share.

    NES PPU pin repair

    I just wanted something that would hold it together if I had to remove it for testing other chips.
  13. This is an NES PPU that had really brittle pins. I broke them off removing it. Afterwards I put it away and forgot about it till recently when I decided to dig it out and attempt a repair. I had to grind away some of the casing and solder new pins on it. Afterwards I smeared some JB Weld over them so they wouldn't break off again. It was a success. I now have a working PPU for my test board again. The JB Weld was messy, but the pics make everything look messier than it is. My phone camera adds five pounds of dirt to everything it takes a picture of.
  14. At this point, I think Retro Studios is kind of a joke.
  15. Nice work. I'm looking forward to seeing the completed cabinet when you get it done.
  16. Street Fighter II SNES is the last one I can remember. I could have also been Final Fantasy III using Sabin's blitz attacks.
  17. I give it a run sometime tomorrow on a mister.
  18. I think there are a few cool titles, but nothing like the original gameboy got. I know it had a sweet port of Dragon Warrior III. I wish I hadn't sold mine.
  19. Daikatana on the GBC is probably the best version of the game and isn't even an FPS. It's a shame it didn't come to the US. Also Trax a GB game by Hal labs.
  20. Here's another good one people should appreciate.
  21. I've been playing a lot of original GameBoy games lately. Pound for pound, I think it has one of the best libraries of any 8 or 16 bit console. I've been playing Donkey Kong, Final Fantasy Legend, Operation C, Fortified Zone, Double Dragon 1 & 2, and Cat Trap among others. There are just tons of cool pick up and play games for it. I sometimes wonder if devs just had more creative freedom because it was treated like a more limited NES. Also, I think the fact that it's a handheld forced them to keep things more succinct. The result was tons of fast action and addictive games that never seemed to ask for too much. I would urge anyone to at least emulate the system and play around with it's library for a bit. You won't be disappointed. I say all this about the GB, and I'm not even a fan of handhelds.
  22. Nice work. If no one picks it up, you should at least set up an itch.io page for it.
