Looks good but not for me. Wish someone would make a WNBA version.

I don’t blame him for walking. No job/business is worth your safety and security.

May have to give that a purchase.

It sucks that retro gaming costs so much. I still feel no used game should sale for more than 100 bucks. But I am a sucker/fair like that. I just wanna play games, not have a vault.

Still bitter that Nintendo never came up with some sort of tv out. I still believe they had plans for the wiiu for that. I would love to do this capture card but I don’t have a New3dsxl I can sacrifice. I do have a 2dsxl. I may have to email them and see if it is possible on that system.

The 3ds was always too small for me to use with any comfort even when I was younger so I fear I will never really work through my 3DS library.

Since when did gamestop start selling retro games in stores again? Also it is against company policy to reveal who sold games to gamestop (especially since they take in ID/DL to register the sale) so unless he was there during the trade either this is fake or someone is getting fired.

FPGA for me. Allows me to play my original games without worrying my hardware is gonna tank. I am not a fan of software emulation from an ethical standpoint anyway.

While I don’t support emulating now, I am glad I did it as a child. Because my mom would have buried me in the back yard and dissolved my body with acid had I done this. Probably why as an adult I just bought multiple systems and left it at that. That being said I didn’t even know of a place to buy Japanese games until ebay came out.

Lol my issue is the weight. I have to take mine upstairs so when I do i will just take it out of the box and lug it up piece by piece.

That’s affordable housing right there! 🫠

If it had been a pocket watch I would have been all over it. But imo a lot of these novelty watches are just brand junk. You don’t really hear collectors in the high end watch space talking about them. These are billboard products where you pay to advertise the brand but it doesn’t really function as a stable investment or buy you social clout. In comparison to say an expensive rolex. So if I would spend that much but don’t get a high return/investment I would rather just buy a stainless steel apple watch. (Actually that is more than what I paid for my series 9).

This is why I stick with analogue. They are slow to make product and expensive but they function correctly as a business. Usually when you get a bunch of people freelancing there is no real project management and products go to heck more readily. Sometimes a standard business model is what stands between product with support and vaporware.

I’m sure that’s what avowed would be but honestly I don’t think it would have worked. Obsidian benefited from having old Interplay members and the essentially retooled Van Buren/Original Fall 3 to make new vegas. They understand that world and its tone.

However I don’t feel they are a strong enough dev even with full Bethesda support to make a good TES game. The lore is so important in that series and I don’t think Obsidian does environment storytelling as well as Bethesda. Their solo effort with the Outer Worlds demonstrates that. They could have made a game with the property but I don’t think it would have mimicked the tone well enough (so they can’t pull a reverse Bethesda Fallout imo).

Oblivion was my start. One of my first 360 games (and VF5C/Online) it also made me serious about PC gaming as the first of many 360 issues was it eating a coaster into my game. I was so fortunate to be working for GS at the time as me nearly bursting into tears over my new system malfunctioning (I had been a full Nintendo gamer until then and had never had a broken console before) prompted my manager to do me a solid with the sku.

Anyway loved the game on PC so much I became a lifelong fan and went back and played the old ones. I had only played JRPGs up until then and hadn’t even realized they made games like TES. And Skyrim… I saved for months at my terrible job to buy the CE. Still one of my favorite games to play. I am patiently awaiting the new one and plan on building a new PC around it. The Bethesda magic got me into fallout (even though I enjoy it much less) as well.

Sure now that there is no money in the video game equivalent of ambulance chasing.

That being said media doesn’t exist in a vacuum and we should be mindful of what we consume as it does have an effect.

Ok so now i have to buy it.

Ocean made a lot of licensed games back in the day so this isn’t surprising.

Must be due to licensing entanglement. I was always shocked the collection came out at all in the first place.

I would say yes. It’s a warning no different than the religious ones in Assassin’s Creed (I still feel that series self censors so certain religious groups don’t go off). It’s not like the content is being removed but it does what all warnings do…warn people. Just because it doesn’t offend one person doesn’t mean that others should be dismissed. If the warning itself offends then perhaps some self reflection is in order.

Ugh Storm is mohawked again?! I had hoped that would remain in the comics. If it had the 2 player version of X-Men, I would be interested.

Just make a sequel to the Samsho fighting game reboot. That game was fun.

Aww that is amazing and well earned. Pretty sure she is responsible for at least half the OST of my childhood.

I feel like he would have been better served not using copyrighted material then.I know that fan works/spiritual sequels are handled in various ways but obviously he was concerned about licensing so I would have avoided that all together by just making an original game.

I have way too many of these things. But they are great bathroom decorations.

Hadn’t realized Rare made so many games. I have played more of their catalog than I thought. That being said for me their best game is Jet Force Gemini (which I would love to see remade). It had a lot of novel ideas at the time and was just a really fun adventure. Also much love to Solar Jetman. I hated it when I was little but I think it contributed to my love of physics games and playing it again as an adult was fun.

I really can't wait until NSO includes DS/3DS games.

Mostly I'm trying to play games I didn't have as a child. I only have a few games that I go back to for nostalgia and honestly as I have aged and my disposable income has increased, I go back to those less and less. Too many other games to beat. I am just chasing fun.

I don’t care what anyone says I love this movie. The OST, the animation at the time was very good and it stars Ming Na Wen. I enjoyed the healing the world theme as well. Love this movie. Have it on VHS and BluRay.

Lynda Carter is so awesome.

This just makes me miss shoryuken.com. So many of the best custom stick builders swapping info.

I mean he can make money from this (the PR alone of he manipulates it correctly) so I don’t see the problem. The point of success is to first be able to support yourself and your family if you have one or want one, then second to give back to society. If he can do that using tetris as a springboard who has the right to tell him he is wrong?

I don’t think what he did is healthy but after seeing all the esports kiddos making bank, I feel maybe I didn’t play video games enough as a child lol.

There were very few kids in my neighborhood and I was the only girl so they were all bullies so I gamed alone. However games were tied to christmases and birthdays or Kwanzaa celebrations or bonding with my mom so they are fond childhood memories. My mom and I still tell the N64 story to this day.

That is so cool. I’m sad that I hadn’t heard of her before but have played the games she worked on. Love hearing from women in the industry.

There is a lot going on with that.

This looks awesome! Will have to get.

Honestly it was a good year for wiiu for me. I picked up Mario and Zelda and had gotten the Link between worlds 3ds and game. I was riding pretty high.

@KingMike someone has to be born first. Pretty sure mortality rates would spike (and they are bad enough as is) if twins tried to all be born at the same time.

Hope she sent it to her mom!

Saturn is my smallest game library but I will have to get this controller.

I swear sega loves to stress me out. Just make a new one. We've been begging for years. That being said for me VF5FS/US is still the best fighting game ever made, it just feels really good to play.

Who tf steals a plaque with someone else’s name on it? People are pathetic.

If they had done that Nintendo would have sued Atari into oblivion. Not cool risking the livelihood of everyone around you to try to “stick it” to Nintendo. Perhaps he should have just tried to make a creative franchise?

I will be getting this next month. Been anxiously awaiting release.
Edit: It’s so good!

This is why I stopped buying retro. Just hope for remakes or accept I won’t play certain games. My game collection is large enough as is.

Got my green and a dock. Time to catch up on some GBA games.

Ooo I will try for the green to match my GBC.

Still the best game in the series for me. The soundtrack alone makes the game amazing but I had so much fun and frustration with this one. Really hated that ubisoft started trend chasing with the second game and imo didn’t recover in the third. Plus female characters really got the crap end of the stick. I think the 360 reboot and the wii movie tie in were ok though.

So not fair that I can’t get/couldn’t find the Sam Kerr cover in my region. Really wish EA would start doing double sided covers with Female players. Or make it that you can print one for your region.

Personally I would like to see Shenmue finished. Games are released too slowly to mimic Like a Dragon. Granted I consider Like a dragon to be the spiritual successor to shenmue so I can wait. What I need is for Suzuki-san to convince SEGA to make a new Virtua Fighter.

My old tv is dying (I am replacing parts but that really lets me know that I am running out of time) so I’m looking at replacing my old hardware. Will start buying some of these next year I think. I do have the Nintendo, SEGA and Sony mini systems so I will start with this N64 replacement.
