I could care less about the potential drama, I’m just happy conquest has finally been emulated after all this time, the closest we’ve ever got was play! having support for the arcade board at all
I’m curious why they started with 2 and continued with 3 meanwhile 1 is stuck somewhere…you think Nintendo had a claim on NG1 which is preventing that one specifically from getting a CSA release?
The only two games i could think of that would have CD exclusive content are this and breakers, otherwise im fairly certain the CD is just like the AES on the front its a consolized neogeo albeit with red book audio on some games
Considering it’s never what we hope for, my money’s on that its gunna be something clear outta left field, like NeoGeo CD or the apple pippin, or spitballing; the Jag CD
Don’t get me wrong, I like DFK but I’d rather it be a port of something else, like muchi muchi pork or DOJ or even the OG DDP, just not DFK for like the unpteenth time…the only thing I will make note is that Cave is doing this themselves this time, no live wire, EXA or Kodomo to be seen.
If you asked me this was probably one hell of a pull from the psx library I have nothing but faith that implicit conversions can power past the “modern port curse” that hangs over niche games like these
Welp, excuse me while I fast forward through the load screen on MAME. Last I checked 360 isn’t at the same level of compatibility in terms of emulation as ps3
Lord only knows why there wasn’t a ps3 port
I recall I used to own the GameCube version, playing NES really was a pull for me in those days. I hadn’t “kept” one long time until I wanna say new horizons and that emulator being expanded to SNES and gameboy is somewhat a full circle moment (and thus re-upping my sub for another year)
Cool!
If there was any good way of preserving one’s physical library, this is it (discs I think are the next step, retroarch and polymega seem to already be ahead on that front
Maybe they’re still working on the English localizations for the Saturn/psx and syndrome and they’re just giving us a taste to wet our whistle? @AllieKitsune yeah no, I would much rather a shmup in this sampler
@romanista not sure, it seems to have been mentioned exclusively on the PC ports, but as long as it has a USB or a USB dongle, I don’t see why it shouldn’t work
@RG-Riven I also recall pointing out to them that a few games in the Tetris collection actually had native save files, which it shipped without them initially, so I can safely attest that digital eclipse listen to their playerbase
Technically, 7800’s (and to an extent, 2600’s) are somewhat more accessible thanks to their 2600 and 7800 + units. They may be on the pricier side of things but thankfully not nearly as much as say a switch 2
Ideally I want all of them, but as for the next one would have to be either ridge racer 2 or rave racer (both of which I’m convinced will make use of aca2’s network play feature which has gone unused as of the time of this writing)
‘Zat will really depend on wether or not they can do the Saturn justice, previous attempts to emulate it have for the most part fallen short of perfection chiefly due to how heinous the Saturn infrastructure is when it comes to its playability, the only one that seemed to have mild success was the S-Tribute line from city connection whomst I have a feeling Atari will get on touch with over comparing notes
Fun fact! Captain waffle returns as a secret character in aero fighters/sonic wings 3 and his ending reveals that the Fata Morgana collaborated with the hildroid
