Retro Gaming Youtubers...Good or Bad for the Hobby?
MegaMan52 replied to Tekdrudge's topic in General Collecting Discussion
I have to mention that it is really sad that many classic YouTube users such as ericmansuper, Blaziken257, Tailz64, yearofthe, PlayitBogart, and undercoverfilmer00v (now known as No1Run) barely get any viewers these days and upload less frequently, or have quit altogether. It's unfortunate that a lot of people these days seem to think only Celebrities are worth their time. YouTube was so much better in its early years than it is now. -

Retro Gaming Youtubers...Good or Bad for the Hobby?
MegaMan52 replied to Tekdrudge's topic in General Collecting Discussion
A very brief history of YouTube: 2006: YouTube gets noticed and is a fun place for everyone. People enjoy watching basically any retro gaming video, watch them from start to finish, and post real comments 2020: YouTube resembles Facebook. Many users are picky about nearly everything from the type of video to a video's display, have shorter attention spans, and post spam comments...or nothing at all -
Panel de Pon 64 proto discovered!
MegaMan52 replied to Koopa64's topic in General Collecting Discussion
So would I. I was just saying, it was eventually released. Just not on N64. I wonder if there's an N64 Prototype of the GameCube version of Yoshi's Cookie. -

Very interesting. The GameCube version, included in Nintendo Puzzle Collection, is nearly identical to this. -

I prefer playing it on GameCube. The Wavebird is the best.

PS2/Playstation 2 - let's talk about it

Jersey Devil, Croc, Soul Blade, Tomba, and Rage Racer. These aren't really underrated, but people don't seem to talk about them much anymore. And they are good, even though they have flaws.

There was a lot of talk about it on Capcom's Message Boards in 2008 (and later). As far as I know, it wasn't revealed what it was and some say there wasn't one at all. But who knows.

What are your favorite pick-up-and-play/fast-paced NES games?

I was playing Mario Kart 8 Deluxe online a lot in May as well as last month. Apparently, after I finished in 1st or 2nd many times, several Mario Kart 8 players in the U.S. and Canada started recognizing/remembering the MegaMan52 name. Nearly every time I play, people are constantly throwing Shells at me even if I'm in 10th place. Also, it's ridiculous that the game seems to refuse giving me Bullet Bills or other useful items until nearly everyone's finished the race. Meanwhile, the few players behind me (or even some of the player's ahead) get useful items more often. Ah well. It is still fun.

Shadowgate also got a sequel (Beyond Shadowgate), but it's for TurboGrafx 16.

Uninvited, Monster in My Pocket, Rockin' Kats, Ghoul School, and Monster Party.

I just can’t get with the outrage culture of modern gaming
MegaMan52 replied to Strange's topic in The Gauntlet
I believe all three games were included with physical copies, but only the first few levels could be played in each without downloading the update. I think this is the only physical game in my entire video game collection that doesn't include the full game. -

I had similar issues with Spyro: Reignited Trilogy, when I got it last year for my Switch. First, before I could even start playing, I needed to download a system update. Once that was downloaded, I started the game and got to the title screen. A Privacy statement appears. Finally, I play through the first few levels of the first Spyro the Dragon and...the game says I need to download an update to play the full game. A 9 GB update...even though I purchased a physical copy. I like Spyro, but that update sure wasted a lot of space. Yes, I know video games are a lot more complex these days. But, dang. It'd be nice to just a put a game into the console, turn it on, and play it. This is one reason why I like retro video games and systems more than modern. -
Yeah, I do.

Do you collect imported GameCube games and consoles?

Here's another unpopular opinion (especially since it is GameCube related): I like the GameCube version of Mega Man Anniversary Collection more than the PS2 version, for several reasons: 1.Loading times, in most cases, are noticeably faster. Mega Man 1, for example, loads up in 13 seconds in the PS2 version, and only 6 seconds in the GameCube version. 2.Mega Man 1-6 are in full-screen in the GameCube version, while the PS2 version appears to display them in a pillar-box mode with large black bars that are noticeable even on a small CRT TV. 3.When you open up the options menu in Mega Man 1-6, the text boxes that appear after choosing an option have multiple blues in the GameCube version like in Rockman Complete Works for PS1. For some reason, they changed them to a single light blue color for the PS2 version. 4.The sound effects in Mega Man: The Power Battle and Mega Man 2: The Power Fighters are crisp and clear in the GameCube version, and sound more like the Arcade versions (keep in mind that MMAC has the CPS1 version of Power Battle). In the PS2 version, several of the sound effects in these two games are muffled. 5.The Interview video is far superior to the Cartoon episode. 6.I never had a problem with the reversed jump and shoot controls. Metroid Prime is the same way, even when playing NES Metroid. 7.People may not care about Manuals a whole lot, but I like that the GameCube version has full-color Manual.
