@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)

Nice. Will firenup the mini tonight then!

ah! I was right (see earlier article) , now I win an Analogue 3D , won't I?

And 3D means the fpga is probably strong enough for lots of 32 bit systems...

Ut i thonk spmething n64

Customer service;)?

I have the retro comteollers for switch so i use them at times. Have an analoguenpocket for the perfect experience ans a miyoo mini plus in my workbag for casual play during commute

Sort of a dream
And a nightmare for a retrosite

Interesting how atari has become all about history now. Just downloaded the atari memorial on switch. Really feels. Good little border in my groups between the jap and the western nso apps. Really nicely done. Tempest 2k remains magical even thouhj tempest 4k is sitting on my switch too

Lovely, but personnally i am happy with my white, not sure if they are competing resources, but their firmware updates are way behind planning, so they should focus on that...

Great that they have production now under control

I read this as if sega was going to reprint them, but alas... still got most of the ones i want,albeit digitally..

Update. It’s here now. Will post little review here next week

Look. I love how nintendo is aware of their heritage, but sometimes every unlockable in every nintendo game revolves around nintendo hardware…

I still hate myself for selling my minish cap special edition

this is brilliant... Shrewsbury people, come to our sensidays world cup!

@romanista Ah, play date is now being sended soonish (batch 4), lets see which arrives earlier

And don’t forget the ds training video game. (For which the password is missing alas. https://youtu.be/-e6xOBCAVvA

that's why i still subscribe to retrogamer, tog et that old magazine feeling somewhere... (and 200 issues means there is some life left in magazines i hope)

@Damo Sure I understand it's a harder to sell 3 million on 31 million than on 102 million, but that is sort of the point Laidbackstrat, isn't.. the relative importance on the loved problem being seen to be far more important than the absolute performance on the gaming market.. ...

Yes. For sure. And it get worse. I recently saw a top 100 of games voted for by amongst others eurogamer and nintendo life and it contained no amiga games at all and barely and other home computer games…

15 years ago sensible world of soccer was still one ‘the most important games of all time’ according to the games fev conference but now https://www.gamesindustry.biz/sensible-world-of-soccer-named-one-of-the-top-10-most-influential-games-of-all-time

Oh and damien pointing out that banjo sold 3 million on a smaller platform is a bit of a logical fallacy. Selling 3 million to gamers did both, so why only one with a famous developer libked to two platform holders should get the attention…

Just received my miyoo plus.. quite nice size too… installed onion os, got amiga working, but the switcher remains a bit fluffy at times… my pocket is far better, but at this size it will just sit in my workbag ready to play…

The apf is the file system? Hoeplully that means quick amiga hdf support

Does is also support double n64 controller support? Loved that on the underestimated robotron 64.

I got it running, and they really beautifully recreated the interface, congrats Adam and friends.... will remain a curiosity though, since although they invented time x 1800, it won't be the same as you simply can switch it off and do something else..

@RetroGames your first sentence is what i thought too, so i was surprise to see some nintendo first party games (smw! ) on the list.. Et Tu, Nintendo?

My ‘favourite’ moment when i finally got gold stars on the cup with bowser castle. I jumped up and the cord between wiimote and nunchuk got stuck in my lamp, taking part of the lamp down…

Ah good news. Alteady liked current cps2 support. Still. Waiting more for ngpc and amiga hdf support

@NinChocolate my first thougts exactly… just put it into retirement since i now have an analogue pocket..

I have a soft spot for the 3ds version sf4.. and the xbox 360 version , mainly because I bought that one in Madrid

Oh and battle chess amiga with the local dixons, since during one lunch break i just brough 2 3,5" disks and copied it over ...

I will always remember when i was on holiday in italy seeing a beautful women playing Tetris in the sun somewhere in Tuscany.... thinking of the game makes me think of her...

Your five ideas make me think of scuba diving, breat control is important for your depth as well.. not sure how it would work though..

if your stressed you use more oxygen so maybe it can give you less downtime in endless ocean..

@tom-massey thanx for the article.. maybe good to add that M2 is porting a special shottriggers edition of DOJ to ps4 this year..

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fXqbXhVGOsE

And on the Ikaruga thing.. it might just be that Treasure was already legendary here for gunstar heroes (and radiant silvergun), and Ikaruga was ported directly to GC and DC.. (being on a Naomi board the latter was easy, more so than a specialised board like cave's)

Great, something to play on my pocklet until the rerelease comes out... i forgot how horrible the cover was https://satoshimatrix.wordpress.com/2010/08/01/famicom-wars-review-fc/

This looks lovely, my playdate will arrive somewhere in early 2023, so this could be right in time

Nice photo's but you did fail to explain the exact relation between the mark 3 and the master system.. (it's a m3 in a different box)

• why make the MS then in the first place, or is it more a different sku?
• do the cartridges interchange?

(edit wiki helps: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_System )

Jtego game some hints on an ngpc core for the pocket. So this list is hopefully just a bit early.

My two cents,

1. For the legal compilations companies are leaning a lot on emulators developed by volunteers, partly because they still wanted a play a game (see the nintendo example cited above, when nintendo even used a rom ripped for such an emulator.

2. The people who like classic games are both the target group for those emulators and for well done classic compilations, and most of them thefore own lots of them, as well as some of those classic games themselves, as well as maybe having some roms.. I think this is a healthy diet to keep interest in classic games alive... (we would otherwise maybe never have those compilations in the first place)

3. Don't forget the role of game discovery.. I bought fire emblem engage partly because I experienced the gba games..

Thanx for giving attention to this, site really proves its worth.. and for the lovers of the game: we still hold a yearly world cup, this year in germany.. visit sensible soccer.de for more details

It makes me think about early 80s dutch radio programme hoppyscoop which broadcasted programmes for home computers via de airwanss and teletext.

(We still have teletext in the neterlands btw

Lovely)

Nice to have some mystery again and something exclusive japanese..

alrthough i would love a ps5/switch port ofcourse...

And it would be great in M2 released the GG rom of aleste 3 fro mtheir collection.. i would happily pay for it to play it on the analogue pocket.. (it seems to be impossible to extract until now)

interesting the the daughter (/) of the family could just order one with mom's credit card... no queue required,,

Spend a nice afternoon putting all my GBA/GC/GB titles in and out to fill the library.. nice little touch to look at your collection.. (on the site it showed that it would be like a wii-style diary too, but it's isn't yet alas)..

and i ended up playing bugs bunny GB for the rest of the afternoon... looks beautiful on it..

Still switches are better than buttons anyway!

(my md2 still works luckily.. and since i now have an analogue pocket my lust for mini consoles is over)

Since she left notes for her grandchildren, isn't it that she wanted to gift ithe gba's to them to have fun like grandma?

@TheSilverFalcon I still use it every year for the world cup of sensible soccer (this year in berlin), and have an usb adapter for it to use it for emulaton purposes...

(and did vote for the zipstick as well for the same reason, although i do like my wavebird)

The Arcade joystick (dutch 9 pin joystick for c64; amiga etc) all the way

Nice article, I remember reading about this game back in the day; but let's not forget that team 17 often was technical impressive, but without understanding how a genre really ticket, leaving things like (Amiga: Overdrive which was no patch on super skid marks, Body blows which looks nice, but shadow fighter playing that much better)

In Amsterdam, there was one shop specialised in importing jap games, Musitapes.. remember getting Japanese gameboy games from them, that felt so special..

Maybe good to note , now it is republished that the emulation of the jaguar is finally get there https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7E3EErUMuU

I bought a cheap jag 10 years ago for tempest 2k, such a brilliant game, feels even better than the vita or ps4 version
