Re: Review: Atari Gamestation Go - A Tour Of Atari's Legacy With One Too Many Bumps In The Road

Not really care about those old atari games, although i lioke the spinner (and nice to have the atari collection on switch)

maybe good to mentions you can also emulate lynx @damo , since with it you can relive the atari portable experience

The jaleco/piko group is interesting in the sense that evercade also has some carts out, and some evercade licenses are running out.. wondering if that means myarcade has taken those over, and the other way around, if this means hope that evercade will get an out run cart (my arcade will release a micro outrun cab next month)

I never imagied actually filliing the 4Gb of the system, but i'm getting closer now, also with the nice gb emulation now...

best game zerozero perfect stop.. the densha de go clone ... so lovely with the crank and great sound

@The_Nintendo_Pedant it's recommended! (the screen is quite vulnarable so do get some protection)...

Re: "Please Support Us" Pleads Yuzo Koshiro As Pirated Earthion ROM Appears Online

@HammyHavoc i get what you're coming from , but this game is aiming at such a specific demographic, that the business case LRG put forward for thrm just wasn
tthe correct one... i couldn't get the special controlller (sold out eventhough in production) , i fear the fysical cart will be as well, and my megadrive hasn't the best rgb output, so i'm very happy that i can play it now on a crt via my analogue pocket, using the rom i bought as [art pf the steam release ( i even bought it for the switch as well, since it is nice to play with the megadrive pad..

On space invaders: wasn't the original black and white with stickers providing the coloring? what version are looking at..

Got both versions and now having bubble bobble on my (sf2) alpha feels really nice, natural fit... and some of the others on my discount exp i bought now the model is announced

@Boopero I thought that too, the otjer taito colection does contain the yoyo game which feels a bit qixi

Re: Forget Nintendo Switch, You Probably Own A Great Way To Play Virtual Boy Games Already

romanista

for me it is the otherway around.. red viper made me inspired to break more interested in the virtual boy (just as Jon Cartwright and John lineman's videos)..the vb seems to get a second chance and nintendo's offering gives us that opportunity...

sure it is (too) expensive, but/and a niche product, but will save this part of gaming, and celebrate gunpei Yukoi's legacy ... the way it failed and was mostly ignored (except by warioware!!) didn't reflect nicely on big N

Re: Vectrex Mini Is The Next Micro Console You'll Need To Own

romanista

@avcrypt yes this.. i love my vecxtrex, but the magic really is in the screen, i showed it to my friends on my arcade birthday party this may and everybody was still in awe.. (got lucky, bought it for 40 euros 20 years ago)...

If the screen isn;'t important, there is a ncie emulator for the ipad which even works with the iCade to create a vectrex mini basically, And the analogue pocket works great on a hires screen too.. imade a little video on those three last yeaqs

and i wonder how they deal with the overlays.. having proper mini overlays would increase the nostaltic feeling immensely

Re: Talking Point: A Curious Contradiction At The Core Of "New" Commodore Makes Me Uncomfortable

romanista

i have lots of problems with this commodore restart... it's a YouTuber getting views and this works for his algorithm... the old commodore may have been dead but that didn't stop the c64 mini... So let's not pretend this is a major breakthrough

those things seem to be more problematic than using gen. AI bit, just like most people I'm afraid... I recognize the dangers, but I don't think singling out Simpson, when he has says he has no immediate plans, is fair, to be honest...
