Re: Best Dreamcast Games

One of my favorite systems of all time. Definitely will be looking for a way to hook it up to my modern TV once I get my house.

Re: Evercade EXP - Superior In Every Way That Matters

@RadioHedgeFund Breath of Fire is such an underrated series, one of my favorite RPGs to this day. Been playing the first one again on my Switch lately. It's just a shame the series didn't have a life span like the Final Fantasy or Dragon Quest series.

As much as this sounds great, I am not much of a handheld gamer, heck I even play my Switch in dock mode more often. With that said, I definitely want one of the Evercade home consoles. This company over all is a blessing for retro gamers.

Re: Flashback: 20 Years Ago Today, Square And Enix Officially Tied The Knot

I remember hearing about that when it happened, not sure where I heard it from but my mind was blowen when I heard the news. I was like but they are rivals they hate each other, that would be like Coke and Pepsi merging.

I guess it's so common place now that it doesn't come as a shock to people but back then it was so unheard of.

Re: Batman Voice Actor Kevin Conroy Has Passed Away

Tasuki

The best Batman ever. As good as some of the live action actors who played Batman, Keaton in particular, Conroy just nailed the voice, and the attitude not just for Batman but for Bruce Wayne as well. May he rest in peace. Thoughts to his family and friends.

Re: Flashback: Did Anyone Actually Win Castlevania III's Trip To Transylvania?

Tasuki

I remember seeing the advertisement for that contest, although I never entered due to my fear of flying.

If anything I would think if anyone won the contest they got the money instead if the trip couldn't happen for political reasons. Like the person who won that contest from Nintendo Power to be in the Mask 2. Since the movie was canceled they got an amount of money equivalent to the prize.

Castlevania SotN (Series X) It's that time of year again. I decided to do my yearly playthrough of SotN to coincide with Halloween this year.

Forza Horizon 3 (Series X) Been in the mood for a FH game so I figure it was time to go back to this one and finish a few loose ends.

TMNT 3 Radical Rescue (Switch) An interesting Metroidvania type of game. I never played it during the Gameboy days but I am enjoying it now.

Re: Future Of Famous Seattle Retro Game Store In Doubt Following Armed Robbery

Tasuki

@TheBigK It's just everywhere man. Since COVID started, and now how bad inflation is people are just doing stupid things. It also doesn't help that the police won't do anything. The store I work at shoplifting is such a common thing and happens hourly. And people just walk out with shopping carts full of stuff and we can't do anything about it. We call the police and they won't even show up. It's a sad time we live in now.

Re: CIBSunday: Batman: The Video Game (Mega Drive)

Tasuki

I found a loose cartridge of this on Genesis a few years ago at a local used media store. I had no idea a Batman on Genesis existed till that point. Out of curiosity I bought it for $5. When I got home I was expecting the NES game just with better graphics. What I got was a different game but a solid Batman game. It turned out to be my favorite version of the games based off of the movie.

The music is some of the best I have heard on the Genesis and I still remember it to this day.

Castlevania SotN (Xbox Series X) Doing my yearly playthrough of this great game and just in time for Halloween too!

TMNT III Radical Rescue (Switch) I never played this game before getting the Collection. It's a pretty good take on the Metroidvania formula.

Overwatch 2 (Xbox Series X) Been a few years since I played Overwatch and with the release of 2 it sounded like a good time to jump back in and of course it hooked me all over again.

Re: The Garbage Pail Kids Resurrected As Gross 8-Bit NES Game

Tasuki

@JackGYarwood Didn't whoever owned the Cabbage Patch Kids line also sue Topps for infringement and that caused them to stop production on them?

I use to have a bunch of the cards. There use to be a corner store near my house when I was a kid and every week with a bit of my allowance I would buy a pack.

Re: Konami Reveals Suikoden I & II HD Remasters At TGS 2022

Tasuki

@Muriustar I have bought alot of games for multiple platforms, either cause I don't have access to a console anymore or in the case of the Switch so I can have it on the go.

The big ones are the Mega Man games. I have those on the NES (the copies I had as a kid) then it seems I buy them with each generation of consoles. So I have the Genesis versions, then the ports of the NES versions on 3DS, GameCube, Wii (VC) Wii U, Xbox and Switch.

Then there's Borderlands 2 which I have for 360, PS4, Xbox One, and Switch..

Re: Museum Shares Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Maps Used By Nintendo Counselors

Tasuki

I called the helpline once as my parents wouldn't allow me because of the price. The only way I was able too was I paid my parents for the call from my allowance.

It was for Final Fantasy III on SNES. I don't remember what the exact problem I was having but after hours of getting nowhere I called and the guy was able to help me in a few minutes. I remember him being friendly and very helpful. I felt special being able to tell my friends the next day in school that I got to call the Nintendo Power Helpline lol. They were so jealous.
