  1. Dang. I went last year. I want to go again but the work schedule didn't come out that way. Have a blast!
  2. I totally get it but I think you're missing out. Every main series home console game after MM (except Skyward Sword) is really good. MM was an experiment the likes of which was not followed in the franchise. And Reed is right about LBW, and it's fun.
  3. See also: Wiis that can play GameCube games
  4. Majora's Mask. Take everything I don't care for in my favorite franchise and focus everything around that. And make the graphics ugly.
  5. From the little attention I pay to the promos, I think they haven't really changed the names of those eras. We might get "Best of the 80 90s and 2000s" now instead of 70s-90s or something. But I think "classic rock" et al still generally refer to the same years.
  6. This already happened many years ago. And sometimes I hear music from places that aren't my desktop computer, like a rental truck.
  7. Came to post a Wayne's World gif. It might be worth a 7 or 8 to me, but the overplayed syndrome that affects all of Led Zeppelin's hits (through no fault of their own) takes it down to a 5. Boring radio DJs have killed the entire band for me.
  8. My brother does this too. No grains or dairy, I can understand. No fruits or vegetables, I find counterintuitive to healthy eating. But he swears by it
  9. Normally I would make a smashburger with cheese, but I've done that a lot. So I wanted to try fried chicken too. First time making it. I brined it overnight in a mix of buttermilk, egg white, and seasoning (salt, pepper, garlic powder, oregano, paprika). And I experimented with two different coatings. Regular bread crumbs, and crushed Special K and potato chips. I should have crushed the crunchy stuff up more. It tasted good but didn't stay on the meat very well. All in all things came out pretty good, especially considering I don't have a thermometer to check oil temperature. Now I can't eat anything else for the rest of the day... Brine post-use
  10. I first heard of these when a friend posted an article about them, noting "There were people sleeping in tents outside my local Target in freezing temperatures last night because the store gave away 10 tumblers this morning."

    Why not show the real machine? Any details of the work that you have done, like the the HDMI and USB interfaces installed on the back panel? Show your prototype in operation with a demo? It's pretty easy these days for most people to take a picture. If you can't or won't do that, there is going to be skepticism. As they say, "Pics or it didn't happen." Either way, add me to those who have said this idea goes way far beyond the reason you've given for it to exist. There are multiple people right here on this forum who can help you with music for a 60 pin cartridge that's compatible with a console that already exists. You're trying to do a lot of unnecessary engineering work and effort to solve one aspect with known solutions. 4 pages on I doubt you are going to reach your goal of 170 buyers, here or anywhere. Even then, it severely limits your audience. Don't reinvent the wheel. Work with a 60 pin cartridge platform that millions of people already have in a dozen+ countries. You want to make games. All you need is someone to help implement the music in the game(s?) you're making. ...which are what? That would create a lot more excitement, if you have anything to show.
  13. I assume because that's his user name. But how did you find video of him?
  14. I liked it a lot. I'll give it an 8; I want to see it again along with the others. I don't watch enough movies to burn out on Depp's mumbly winking persona yet so I still enjoy it.

    I would be interested if there are enough good launch games. Straight away, I doubt any project could find 170 buyers on this site in the time span of one campaign. Do you have other places where you will promote this? What will HS offer that Ouya didn't? How will you attract other developers? Will HS use C programming, or what?
  17. What's New In My Collection Link's Family Tried For Christmas edition My mother gets (very slightly) distraught if I say I don't want anything for Christmas. So in recent years I have tried to set aside some things I would normally buy myself and put those on my wish list. This year (among other, non video game things) I asked for "Switch games - Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, Paper Mario & the Origami King" My brother emailed me on Christmas and said "Zelda is in the mail, sorry for the delay" That's fine. I laughed when I saw the shipping label, dated 12/27. I laughed some more when I opened it and unwrapped it. I laughed but slightly less, when I turned it over to find this. I also see that he didn't procrastinate as much as the shipping label had me think, because there was a gift receipt (that I can't use for a return) showing that he ordered it on 12/3. So I guess he had to wait for it to cross the pond. Mom did better, she recognized her limitations in video game shopping and mailed me a check I got a copy of the game and I'm gonna keep the check in the sleeve.
  18. That totally makes sense. But I feel like I can filter out a lot of stuff that I wouldn't like by looking at a certain game before getting to the point of acquiring it. I really get this too. When I first got into emulating on a console, a friend gave me a disc with about 1700 NES and Famicom titles. I tested that out for a few years, narrowing down what I wanted to keep. That didn't include Japanese text-heavy games, but I did hang onto ones I didn't like yet still wanted to have on hand because they were popular or significant, games that I thought were interesting, groundbreaking or unusual for their time, or weird yet compelling in some way.
  19. I'm right with you on age and times playing and collecting. I look forward to seeing your posts. Welcome Plant 2 welcomes you (and so do I)
