romanista

Have the japanese team, felt like little magic... bit overtaken by warioware because that incorpates most of its games with- more modes.. will put it my analogue pocket tonight just to admire its box..

@AJB83 well we can debate over revolutionizing in semantics but for me it has gove new dxcitement to the scene with a new approach.

And agreed the the miyoo mini eg is so user friendly now for
Most things, but for other rhong eg amiga emulation (i play in the world cup of sensible soccer where timing is every thing) fpga makes a hell of a difference.

Love my software emulation solutions but now excited every week when i see the jotego updatss..

@Serpenterror yes i always wondered. But in a way to couldnimprove it wth all versions until it artoved here…

@BitmapBureau good news. Our dutch graphics hero involved too?

nice to read... and interesting since he is already from 1959.. so he was an midtwenties gamer i guess then, when megaman arrived,

Does anbernic just checks miyoo's website and tries to copy their ideas? (and how many more models do we need of this kind of thing.. my miyoo mini plus feels sort of perfect tbh)

Great movie. Especially liked the european part with the cultural / music dimension. Really beought me back to my youth

(Think i saw the american section before but had missed the rest)

@Gerald with a hamster lightgun joycon

Wow. Sad atory. There first really live playdate sale event and then this. * hugs playdate *

ah remember those games, would love to play some alpine skier again... And always interesting to see thsat japanese games industry is more mature that lots of gamer think...

now hoping they can patch nintendon't to use the wii(u)s online capbility

@Poodlestargenerica thanks for the headup, will give it another chance

@Poodlestargenerica yeah that's what i was thinking too.. i already have gb advance wars in my libreary..

still mostly for the curiosity,, they seem to miss the flow of the advance games..and it is slow...maybe should put it on turbo on my miyoo or something

might need a link cabe for my analogue pocket afterall....

siamese trio?

Congrats all, been a subscriber since issue 3 or something, and had the pleasure being interviewed in nr 26 or something... has been a great ride...

@Serpenterror respect, seems alfully difficult to make a difference in your head between so many versions..

(personally i like the 3ds version, the xbox 360 sf4, and hate the amiga version.. such a dissapointment for little romanista back then)

@mystman12 maybe but they won't, i would like a tg16 adapter, but not the rest, and now i won't be buying anything (although i was trying to make a dead with another dutch man to share some costs..)

@LowDefAl and don't forget the taxes... just bought the dock and had to pay 100_+50 shipping + 50 taxes

@gingerbeardman that's true.. i'm ok with buying it, sorry to have sounded to sour... just wondering how to place these reviews in a bigger picture.. (and how much i can trust it as a buyers guide)

@gingerbeardman interesting to read this...
this seems indeeed like the ideal situation... (btw buy Matt's games, they're great!)

@damien is this site becoming a playdate paltform? kind of notsure what to think of the reviews now, bogutht the tetris clone yesterday (okay but nothing special) and began to wonder why it was covered.. it seems every playdate game gets a 9 here now, and it makes it difficult to choose

downloaded it yesterday..

1. interesting to play llamatron as a twin stick shooter, completely changes the dynamic (far easier but still)... play the amiga version on my pocket at times...the amiga is basically ignored it seems btw,,
2. indeed dissapointed in missing his later work, since there are some interesting questions to be answertd, and i would have loved space giraffe on the switch (i already had tempest 2k , after atari age)
3. but happy to be able to play the Multisystem...

First platformer i really liked.. (was a c64 kid)

it's playdate week on time extension? not sure why playdate is relly retro except the screen bw look ofcourse, but i'll take it.. lots of excuses to bring the cute yellow machine with me

chumbawumba with tubthumbing is my fifa (98 wc i think) soundtrack

finally able to check this list out thanx too the 3ds emulator release https://www.timeextension.com/news/2024/02/3ds-virtual-boy-emulation-gives-you-3d-without-the-headaches?utm_campaign=promoted-articles&utm_medium=homepage-listing&utm_source=nintendolife.com

oh man, just tried it, mario tennis, so magical 3ds... it is so magical, that mythical system now in the palm of your hand...

Really nissing Apidya here (with swiv and banshee the best shooter) Swos easily the best game overall

Happy with blast corps… one of the truely original n64 games which i havent played for quite some time.. nso n64 controller in the charger to play this when i come home

@L-Sand got it, i really nails the vibe… and the first Tate mode game on the Playdate i own,.. live tate mode, great choice…

Well done

Love shmups and cherish my playdate, so i got this on release (and had some nice interactions with the developer, nice guy)… technical marvel, but have to admit it doesn’t click that much… it’s had from the get go, when my eyes are still getting used to screen… really would benefit from an easy first level…

Playdate is better at ‘playdate’ games i guess… but still worth a try for every owner.. especially when that novice mode comes out..

@L-Sand were you inspired by warioware as the article implies? I remember a paper plane game on my old Mac SE/30.

Ah glider https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glider_(video_game)

Good to see discussion, personally i really don't 'feel' the DKC games... and think they are and always were ugly (yeah the SNES can do pseudo 3d rendered things), for me the n64 games shine i think ... Blast Corps is a true original idea... and diddy kong the best kart racer of the era.. And goldeneye has been very important... ( not really feel the need to play it right now, although n64 shooting is very satisfying)

see of thieves i tried but couldn't really get into... imagine it is fun if you feel like the top dog pirate..

Wow, congrats hamster! rabbits might be famous for their multitude of offspring, but you're the true rodent in the house!

Depends a bit on the game.. I still play Swos because it's simply the best football game every created, and the community is still alive (and keeps sensi up to date)

then you have the discovery part: pc engine because you didn't have it here..

and a bit nostalgia... amigavision on the pocket does that...

Good day to shadow drop smash 64 on NSO!

didn't have an n64 in 1999, but remember buying melee a few years later

wonder if mister also means analogue pocket here.. or in 360 mode

(although my 360 hour stick just works, so that's basically a one stick solution too)

ah on the site they mention analogue pocket dock.... mmmm...

EDF! EDF! EDF! this was the entry that got me into bugshooting, think the first time the game was brought to the west too

Looks nice, but is it really that small? not smaller than my pcoket i think?

Good that you’ve updated this.. i think you’re a bit optimistic.. without the elements it’s not really living up to its promise…, and if you’re looking at 600+ it sort of changes… stilll good they keep improving.. just got a dock for my analogue pocket… seems to fit my use case more, but everybody has different preferences ofcourse…

Lego city. The reason to biy a wiju

@Gerald No Ice Cream No Party! (did play that version way back on my GBA SP 20 years ago).. speedball 2 really is the Amiga middle phase for me, got the game (from a friend, natch) the day i got my A500 in march 1991

And it's there DOJ day!

Does this version contain some background info too? the reason for me to buy the first one was partly the booklet with interviews with toaplan

@Gerald well they didn't have amiga emulation working nicely yet i think, this cart from almost 2 years ago, only recently they added amiga ports...

did buy this cart back then, but luckily now enjoying the amiga version on my aqalogue pocket

@ChromaticDracula i guess it's because i had to use another email address when ordering because somehow my normal one didn't go through when ordering...

@ChromaticDracula aren’t they spamming you with mail? I get all the anouncements twice about 12 hours before they are on time extension… aren’t they in your spam forlder or something?

Think the divisive hing is something of that time, and looked upon from an era of a failed gamecube which changed the perspective..

Mario Kart 64 is quite bad (imho) in hind sind, and this stays as fresh as it was... happy some DD tracks came to the final rounds of the booster pass, just before mk8 closed...

@Serpenterror yes i understand; i'm afraid they seem to have moved on..

@Serpenterror the pocket has some nice 3d printed handels you can buy though .. so might suit you

(for me personnaly i love the form factor but can appreciate it doesn't fit everyone)
