Sad to see they haven't really changed. Sega needs real leaders.

Hype for this.

More DotEmu and Tencent garbage. Metal Slug deserves better.
Looks like the servers don't even work. Not surprised.

Gosh it looks better and better every time.

I hope they solved the d-pad diagonal issues.
I've seen lots of reports of hyper/hyposensitivity, and I personally had to open my launch Pocket to add thin strips of electrical tape to the underside of my d-pad just so the diagonals would register.
I wasn't willing to wait weeks/months for an out of warranty swap.

The Ferrari logo is also missing in-game on the A1Up cabs. Licensing cost must be insane.

I'm glad it's released. Also hoping Nintendo keeps looking the other way. Infidelity does really good work with these ports. I want to see him keep going with these as long as he still has the drive to.

Interesting. I'll wait for a finished product. Not interested in furthering support of crash-and-burn economics through Kickstarter.

Risky move. Better to not paywall something using an IP Nintendo owns. Their lawyers will sniff it out.

My favorite logo. I was sad to see it get sterilized by Konami.

Mr. Blister on my thumb. Accurate retrogaming for the masses!

It's really difficult to build a franchise around a character that doesn't resemble their past self in each new iteration. I get the feeling that they just don't really care about the characters or in keeping Perfect Dark as a viable property. But they needed to show SOMETHING at Xbox to complete that milestone. Something to keep up the appearance that Xbox gives a hoot about video games. But it's really just corpo key jingling. Having played a ton of the original on N64, this just screams generic future shooter which happens to have the PD IP plopped in. QUICK! Bust out the "things aren't what they seem" trope!, Oh! and make the protag have a head hurty scene! They'll chug that slop up!

Sorry, I'm tired of these uncreatives. The whole thing looks like trash. And her appearance is but a distraction.

In the 90s and Y2K, it was the scene, man.

It's been so long.

At the end of the day the name is only relevant to stand out in a crowded market. And I do get the concept of a knockoff MiSTer being great for competition. But a more knockoff sounding name would have been "MoSTr". Sounds close, but not quite, and you're getting the most bang for your buck over the genuine article. Then again, what do I know? I'm a derp.

Good Job Time Extension! BAFTA & Take-Two are a joke.

It's a cool idea, but also too small for my taste. As the owner of a bunch of Evercade carts, I am definitely interested in a larger version.

If this is successful, I hope they try taking a run at something closer to the size of the top-half of an Arcade 1up. Still not perfect, but closer to the ideal point where I'd open my wallet.

That was cathartic. Keeping common games sealed is fine, as there's always a lot of copies floating around online. But a proto? It belongs dumped, free, and in a museum.

What happened to those Project Little Man hackers that were reverse engineering the chips on the Papsmearium board? Thought the chips were all off-the-shelf parts? Should have been EZ to RE.

There's way too many of these things. How about some thing new? Like a hybrid analog/digital input? A d-pad cross with pressure sensitivity? A clicky stick with short throw but digital and analog sensors? I dunno. They all blend together, cannibalize sales of their other models, and are shaped for people who want to get RSI. No thanks.

It's like their hardware engineers stopped trying and said "good enough".

Fans once again proving they give infinitely more care towards the creative and technical arts than Publishers.

Don't buy Atari's physical releases. Got it.

Vertexer "EXA" when?

Terasic asked for this by price gouging for so long. Break their backs, free hand of the economy!

Housing and touch controls are useless fluff. Put the money toward RE/core research.

Looks tasty. Changing flavors/colors could be an option to explore.

How much is that in SouljaCoin?

PC! Woo! Here's hoping they can port over some of the PS2 additions as DLC.

How's that "museum" coming, John? XD

That looks nothing like a store from the 90s.

They reinstated his cheated scores? Cowards.

Speculators have ruined retro gaming. They belong in the trash.

Sweet. Thanks for the tutorial! Widescreen really enhances the sense of speed in WO, and Phantom Edition looks "leagues" better than the emulated original. XP

Now if only the XL/2097 source would leak next.

I loved my C64, but none of these collections have any of the games I played as a kid.

That's funny because LRG still hasn't shipped the collector's editions.

@Sketcz Nah. Forget you.

Unfortunate placement of the ®. Looks like it says "ATARL" at a distance. Lmao.

They need to go back and fix the messy "HD" port GungHo made, with the actual, correct textures this time.

I'm glad they stopped with their patreon nonsense, to focus on the game. It's smart not to make commitments you can't adhere to, and also not put your work at risk of upsetting the original rights holders.

@AceGrace It appeals to children. YouTube's largest demographic. Google and advertisers have been unusually fortunate so far to avoid stringent regulation from the gov't and parental advocacy/concern groups, so far. It really makes you wonder why.

Live services are too much work. It's time they all went away.

Cool!

"Hmm, is that it? Can you think of something more to say?"

No, TimeExtension, I just wanted to balance out all the bizarrely rude comments from people who've obviously never written code in their lives. LMAO.

Hope someone can ask them why we aren't getting the original PS1 english voices. I know they're likely missing a bunch of lines they'd need for the remake, and yes they were cringe even back in the day. Yet they had a certain charm to them.

Bout damn time.

@jorel262 Better to bump an article to keep all relevant information centralized for reference convenience than to have to keep track of umpteen articles all saying slight variations of the same thing. tl;dr It's easier.

Fan translation teams DO what smelly corporaSHUNS.

I don't think he likes what people have said about some of the Sonic games he's directed. Which explains his cold, corporate speak regarding Sonic. He comes off defensive and baffled by Sonic Mania, and the consumer's love for 2D Sonic.

Do consumers prefer 3D sonic? Really?

@BionicDodo I question if it really is more expensive and time consuming. If 3D is easier to produce than 2D, then why are the 3D Sonic games some of the buggiest and broken outings of the Blue Blur? Not just janky, unfinished programming, but also wonky plot and pacing.

@Fighting_Game_Loser I'd pay quintuple for an M2 Sega Ages port of Scud Race.

Doesn't look like he's porting the superior FDS version.
I hope he takes the time to consider how much better the wavetable music is, and how great a OQL feature the save function is, too.

A list of the differences is available here:

This still looks great though! Loved his TLoZ port!
