It looks fantastic. I love the minimal basic interface with History and Favorites implemented. I am still waiting for mine to be delivered. Hopefully when it arrives, the new interface is ready.

What a scam! Are you telling me that the covers of games in the 80s were totally misleading!? Unacceptable! /s

We are losing our old glories, unfortunately. I spent many, many coins playing Super Pang. With Street Fighter II it is probably my most played arcade.

Rest in Peace and thanks for all.

@Exerion76 good to know, because I ordered mine weeks ago without a fan. Now I have to look for a local alternative in case that it overheats in Summer (If it arrives then as planned).

My plan is to use it as a 16-bit/PlayStation /Saturn all-in-one machine. I was thinking about updating my Mega Everdrive X7 to a Pro, but for 20€ more I decided that the SS1 was the cheapest/convenient way to play Mega-CD games.

What? 90s ads were even more hardcore than this AI slop .

Without Pokémon they could have a chance, as they were cool devices, but with so many devices already sold and suddenly you get such a game... You don't want to play anything else. And arcade machines were still everywhere. If I wanted to play Metal Slug, I could just go to the arcade to play with the big one.

I understand the dilemma and I am glad that a media speaks openly about it. It's very childish to turn a blind eye to reality. Be an adult, be informed and make your decision, with its consecuences. It's up to ourselves to decide which companies we support with our money.

I am very curious to know which 68000/Z80 clones are being used. As they probably cost only a couple of cents each, I do not know where the 200 € price comes from.

I had no idea that Micromanía was back. What a great magazine! For the Spaniards, Hobby Consolas, Superjuegos and Micromanía were a must-buy every month.

By the way, great cover from the artist Juan Giménez, who passed away in 2020.

@Foxhound it doesn't help how Konami manages their IPs. It hurts with Snatcher, because it has been officially translated for 30 years. Peguin Adventure was released for the Wii but only in Japan. Snatcher only for the PC-Engine Mini in japanese.

Very useful article. Some sites are new to me. I normally check Reddit communities for short stories but for something with deeper content I prefer proper webs.

And a personal recommwndation and my favorite channel in Youtube: Basement Brothers.

@OldManLav what is more, I expect that they create the code only using assembly language. A C Compiler gives you too much help already.

So, people criticizing other people because they spend their free time doing whatever they want? Enough Internet for today.

With the new Console Archives line, we might get as well Rage Racer and Ridge Racer Type 4.

Great Interview! What a pleasure to read it. As a child/teenager you don't think too much about the people working in games, but now as an adult, you can feel identified with them and, at least for me, I appreciate them even more, knowing the work behind.

And note to myself: never work for a Japanese company.

In a normal world, people would wait for the product to be released, check some reviews and the buy it or not. Nowadays you have a mix of preorders, FOMO, hype and expectations above reality. Add to this the thousands of YouTubers leeching off the work of others to make money with some doomposting .

Nothing good can come from this.

Or they will create farm artist from poor countries, paying them with rice, to keep feeding the AI with new content, something like an Art Matrix.

They should release again the Gameboy game and the 32-bit versions as a bonus. That is an outstanding fighting game!

As a fan of Sony industrial designs, we really deserved the SNES Playstation.

How funny! I was playing Wipeout 64 yesterday. Whatever the Sony fanboys say, it controls much better than the first Wipeout and I find it better to play.

@jesse_dylan it wouldn't have any sense to not release a ROM this time. The gbc screen is what it is and many people play its games on emulation handhelds or modern systems.

Welcome to the continent of the microcomputers. Some young americans forget that even Super Mario Bros 3 came to Europe in 1991! Until the Gameboy, Nintendo was not a big thing here.

This sounds like the perfect title for the launch of the Supersega.

People are going to support this game buying it anyway but maybe they don't want to support LRG.

Good Sega allowed us to buy their Mega Drive Classic Collection that includes the ROMs. I legally play these games on my console. And nobody gets harm.

Hopefully GOG gets a release of the game. In the website of Earthion they mention a physical DRM-free PC version.

I would love to buy the ROM for my Mega Drive, but I suppose that only the Pro everdrive will be supported.

What a Baroque abomination!

I love and love Mega Man, but nowadays it is difficult to play the old games. I am not a lag boy but holy moly, without a CRT it is hard to enjoy them.

Raspberry Pi emulation... Well, I was expecting a real FX chip evolution. It seems that the era of custom chips is far behind.

Great channel that I have been following since the pandemic. Positive comments, good mood, short videos, no crappy drama or negative bait content. I am glad for him!

Nintendo should be blamed for this: the gamepad constantly drains battery until it is empty and this finally damages the battery. Lithium batteries should be stored with at least 50% of its load. The same will happen with the Switch controllers in some years. I will be able to play with my Nintendo DS many years after my Switch has died long before. ..

I will wait for the Snes port.

It is clear that Limited Run is just a bootleg supplier with a fancy webpage.

@JJtheTexan how time works... I totally forgot that I was using Windows 3.11 / MS-DOS during my Snes time and I installed W95 short before getting my N64.

After a hard day harvesting Tiberium, spend the rest of the day just harvesting crops.

@Hexapus Oh, I had another idea, as I read many times that Dragon Ball was something very niche, as well as other series like Heidi, Candy Candy, Ranma, etc. Interesting. Thanks for the clarification.

We call the 80s in Spain the golden era of Spanish gaming. From the cover art to the games themselves were fascinating Times. For artwork, just check Alfonso Azpiri works. Opera Soft and "The Abbey of Crime" was a milestone that led years later to the well-known Commandos series!

Another funny thing is Anime. Americans almost ignored it until the 00s. In spain we were watching anime series since the end of the 70s!

@Crecca

We had the Ngage and the Philips CD-i. It's... something.

As the article remarks, microcomputers were a big thing here, there was not enough market / interest in consoles so nobody took the risk.

Mortal Kombat Nitro Champion Edition Turbo. The good old 90s.

You keep giving this guy attention just for the clickbait, when it is clear that this is just a scam. I find it disgusting.

Additional chips for 16-bit consoles in the cartridge, nothing unusual. The Snes has a bunch of them and the MD has its SVP. Much better than adding useless addons.
