Black Valkyrie Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 SALAMANDER HD Remaster (Android), I wonder if its official, Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 Nintendo Playstation (SNES CD by Sony) i remember reading about this then it got canned... i think EGM magazine back then was the best editorial out there with Steve Harris at the helm. damn, i can't believe this exists. Quote
Black Valkyrie Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 It this was officially released, thinks would have been different and may be Sega still produces consoles after the Dreamcast. Quote
Keith Posted July 5, 2015 Posted July 5, 2015 Why doesn't he boot it up? I wanna see that thing run. Hell, at least play SNES / Super Famicom games on it for kicks. Quote
Valkyrie Hunter D Posted July 5, 2015 Posted July 5, 2015 Why doesn't he boot it up? I wanna see that thing run. Hell, at least play SNES / Super Famicom games on it for kicks. Last I heard, he's trying to find an appropriate power adapter. Apparently it didn't have one. If this thing is real, can you imagine how much he can get for it? Quote

If this thing is real, can you imagine how much he can get for it?At least 2k monies.But man, if that was mine, it'd be my regular Super Nintendo. People'd come over, be all "the hell is that?!" and Id just be "a Nintendo. Wanna play Mario Kart?" Quote

People'd come over, be all "the hell is that?!" and Id just be "a Nintendo. Wanna play Mario Kart?" I actually wonder how it'd handle PS1 software. While no doubt it"s much less powerfup than a PS1, I still wonder if it'd recognize the discs. Being a test system may nullify any carts or discs though. But still a nice curiosity. Quote

Keith Posted July 5, 2015 Posted July 5, 2015 It's a fundamentally different platform than the PS1. I can basically guarantee it's incompatible. Obviously, but it's still a prototupe. Recognizing game names at the pre-load UI would be magical enough. Quote
JB0 Posted July 5, 2015 Posted July 5, 2015 Obviously, but it's still a prototupe. Recognizing game names at the pre-load UI would be magical enough. It's a prototype of a different system, namespace collision aside. Also, I don't think PS1 games have a name encoded for display, given that's not a function available on the PS1. You'd most likely get a "this is for the wrong system" error, since the disk is a CD-ROM, but not an SNES CD game. Incidentally, this prototype was also intended to take "SuperDisk" cassettes, which contained the CD in a caddy with an IC mounted for game saves and production control. Not naked CDs. (Though as with many CD players of the era, an audio disk or foreign system disk could be loaded into a caddy for playback, as evidenced by the CD player controls on top of the system). Quote

dizman Posted July 13, 2015 Posted July 13, 2015 (edited) So here's a strange bit of nostalgia, someone made an audiobook out of the first S.D. Perry Resident Evil novel. Funny enough it wasn't as terrible as I remember. Edited July 13, 2015 by dizman Quote
areaseven Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 Gotta love the Japanese and their video game directions. Quote
mikeszekely Posted August 26, 2015 Posted August 26, 2015 (edited) Hey, as long as this thread is floating near the top, I might as well mention that the Mega Man Legacy Collection is available now. EDIT: Nevermind. I mean, yeah, it is available. But it feels sort of off, and I say this as someone who's played the NES versions probably hundreds of times, played the NES ROMs on emulators for Windows, Mac, Android, PSP, and Dreamcast, the PS2 Anniversary Collection, Virtual Console versions on the Wii, Wii U, and 3DS, and the PlayStation Store Japanese PSone versions on the PS3. It's hard to say exactly how they're off, but I'm making a lot of mistakes and generally finding it more difficult than normal. For games that require precise timing and muscle reflexes, that's hard to get past. Even if it were spot on, well, it's sort of bare bones. You can try some challenges, and you can read character and enemy profiles/view some art, but it's basically the six NES Mega Man games with none of the extras like Navi mode or the remixed music from the Anniversary Collection (or, for that matter, MM7-8 or the arcade games). I mean, maybe get it on sale if you really want to play it on whatever platform without resorting to emulators, but I'll probably stick to other versions. Edited August 26, 2015 by mikeszekely Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 i was recently playing streets of rage (bare knuckles) and remembering this going head to head with final fight snes. (genesis vs. snes) and reading EGM re: # of on screen characters. # of moves sets. etc. Quote
Mazinger Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 Street fighter 3rd strike via the iFinalBurn Alpha emulator is what I'm rocking on my phone. Every now and again I also jump online to get schooled on 3rd Strike via FightCade. I run Linux at home and FightCade works great on it and OSX, so f you are into fighting games I strongly recommend it. Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted October 28, 2015 Posted October 28, 2015 havent used my iphone for gaming too much to save batteries. sega vs. nintendo i always thought sega's version was better in contrast to this review Quote
Mazinger Posted October 28, 2015 Posted October 28, 2015 (edited) I probably should have posted this with along with my plug for SF3: EDIT: Forgive me, I tried to make the link above, but failed miserably. Still a forum n00b, so not sure what I need to do to get youtube embedding to work. Oh well... 2x EDIT: Thanks to davidwhangchoi / akteon for the hint on http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=42314#entry1231368 Edited October 28, 2015 by Mazinger Quote

Guest davidwhangchoi Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 UN Squadron 2006 Version Sound Track ( TV game music 「 AREA88 」 ) Quote
TheLoneWolf Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 Here's an update on the Nintendo Playstation prototype: The Diebolds got a power supply and finally turned on their Nintendo Playstation. The good news is that it works, but now without a few hiccups. Kudos to Engadget for taking lots of pictures. And here's a nice addendum from someone who analyzed Engadget's pictures of system's PCB's, in which he makes some compelling arguments as what the system can and cannot do. Fascinating stuff! Quote

myk Posted November 13, 2015 Posted November 13, 2015 I love all of their games. Well, except for the one where there was no vehicular combat involved. .. Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 The SFC/ SNES version will always be the best, i like! wondering if i should look into star fox zero... it looks cheap for a wii u game. some more retro tunes for background while browsing: tmnt (nes) i liked this soundtrack but the game was hard.

VF-19 Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 I was thinking of getting a Retron 5, but then I heard about the GPD XD (http://www.willgoo.com/gpd-xd-pocket-gaming-tablet-rk3288-quadcore-5-ips-p-637.html), and realized I'd rather retro game on the go (a huge plus for the commute). Has anybody got any experience with the device. I know it's basically an Android tablet, and that it's pretty good (as far as the internet reviews go), and that's pretty much it. Quote
