    The tachis are ugly and I won't stand for it!

    If they use tachikomas in the movie, I'll just be mad they aren't fuchikomas. The tachis are ugly.

    That is a fair statement. Reminds me of Getter Robo in how a bunch of bumpy things combine to make a sleek whole. And complete disregard for the shapes of the sub-units in the final assemblage.

    Personal expectation: if anything happens, it'll be Sony releases it on DVD again, likely very close to a bit-perfect copy of the mediocre ADV set. And then HG sends C&D letters to everyone they see importing the japanese DVDs or BluRays of any Macross installment, with the additional demand that all copies must be delivered to HG's office for disposal. (Yes, HG, I still remember that little stunt.)

    As I recall, fuchikomas weren't in the first movie either. And since that is often considered the definitive Ghost... I have but faint hope that we'll see fuchikomas(screw the tachis, I want the REAL THINGS!). Though they'd be fools to leave the spidertank showdown on the table.

    As a preview image, it is entirely possible that the Max 1J was removed from the final game for some reason(like givin' him a VF-22 instead whoo!). It would be far from the first time a preview image was not 100% true to the release version.

    True. Credit where it is due, they HAVE listened to feedback. They are more cohesive while still being recognizably mechanical. ... Except for the one with the coat. Which was silly as hell, but awesome anyways.

    Honestly, I think the new Megazord is making a DIFFERENT set of mistakes than Bayformers. Instead of looking like a giant ball of scrap given life, it looks like a giant Power Ranger. On the upside, yay for a cohesive design with an identifiable character outline, but on the downside... the Bayformers actually looked like robots. Anyways, here is hoping that this movie, if it ever gets off the ground, is competent.

    Again? Hopefully not with trash-lions this time.

    You know we don't play games here. We spend WAY too much time talking about them to actually play them. Also: http://inticreates.com/blaster-master-zero-3ds/ MORE. FRIGGIN'. BLASTER MASTER. HELL TO THE YES.

    On the positive, I think the pterodactyl wings on the back look pretty badass. And this way, Kimberly gets to be the one that's all "And I'll form the head". There is some interesting design in that it echos the ranger suits themselves, with the crystal in the chest and the whole "guy in spandex" look. But ... it really SHOULDN'T echo the "guy in spandex" look because IT IS A ROBOT. It should look like a guy wearing a bunch of cardboard boxes. But yeah, it misses the core ESSENCE of a combiner, in favor of making it look like a cohesive whole, and that is a hard flaw to forgive. If someone told me this was a new ranger, or powerup armor for the base ranger suits, I'd believe it. Which means their mecha designers failed at their task.

    Ay caramba...

    Sorry, Macrossfanx9. I know you are new to the franchise and hyped at this prospect, but there is a LOT of bad blood between us and Harmony Gold for various historical and not-so-historical reasons. The short version is that they have been tremendous dicks(to put it mildly) to both the fanbase and the creators, and there is no great love for them here. Consequently most of us would, to put it bluntly, rather dance while they burn than give them one red cent. Hence the less-than-warm reception your idea has generated.

    In fairness, Skullcruncher really is one of the better of the recent Transformers. I'd say most of the figures at that scale are not as good as him. He still shouldn't be punching that far above his class, but... he DOES punch a bit farther than his TR brothers.

    I've watched a few episodes of that. I can't tell if it is a brilliant parody, or if it is supposed to be a fanservice show and they genuinely think what they're drawing is sexy.

    So they're going to the Super Bowl now, right?

    That wouldn't be a reissue so much as a completely new piece of hardware. It would be nice to see Sega do something for the Genesis other than "let ATGames keep selling licensed clones en masse"
  18. JB0
    In honesty, it is hard to make out to my ear. I think the "robot voice" filter distorts it just enough to make the engrish stop sounding like engrish.
  19. JB0
    GO SPEED RACER!!!!
  20. JB0
    Well, they should've waited until ATGames had the promised ARM+emulator package available! They are moving to emulation for their next generation of Genesis clones, which solves the accuracy problems as well as allowing for things like HDMI and state saves.
  21. JB0
    I think that was the point. If that is all they're spending on effects, they don't need much of a budget.
  22. JB0
    They're using hardware that doesn't output digital video signals. Personally, I'd rather have the visible warnings that it's a Firecore unit than have it anonymized. They don't do pretty things to the sound.
  23. JB0
    "includes a slot for Micro SD cards" That and non-HDMI video means that, also sadly, it's Firecore-based. Not that rampant audio errors have stopped people from enjoying them to date(or from enjoying the absurdly-prevalent 1-chip NES clones), but the games deserve better. (And whenever someone insists hardware > emulation, you can always point to the 1-chip Famiclone or Firecore Genesis as counterexamples. )

    Assuming the thing outputs 1920x1080 when connected to the TV. The resolution difference WILL be noticed at that size.

    As a bonus, the modern Macs can all run Windows since they're IBM-compatible!
