Re: Capcom President Teases "New Releases, Remakes, And Ports" Could Be On The Way For Mega Man & Two Other Classic IPs

@kitestar For Mega Man specifically, there's still a few games: For "mainline" Mega Man series, the only one pending to make a comeback is the Legends series. Everything else is mostly spin-offs and side "mainline" games such as Rockman & Forte/Mega Man & Bass.

If you want, you may also include The Wily Wars and the GB Mega Man series (known in Japan as Rockman World) as unavailable in modern systems.
They're available on Nintendo Switch via NSO and the former is also on the Mega Drive Mini, but they're not available as games you can purchase on any current platform.

Re: "Rarest" Nintendo Famicom Game Found In US Retro Store For $12

Something similar happened to me once but not to the same extent. In 2017 a video game store in my city was selling a CIB copy of Pokémon Black for just 30 Mexican Pesos (about $2.50 at the time). Even the employees were surprised that the system was throwing that price. The funny thing is at the same time they also had a CIB copy of Pokémon White for 500 Pesos (about $25 at most).

Of course I bought it and still have it to this day.

Re: Review: MagicX Zero 40 - Come For Nintendo DS Emulation, Stay for TATE Coin-Ops

@Broosh @BulkSlash
The games I can think of are
The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass (Press the Sacred Crest (top screen symbol) on the Sea Chart (touch screen map) to transfer it) and

Hotel Dusk: Room 215 (when Milla faints and you have to close the DS to give her mouth-to-mouth resuscitation)

Another Code: Two Memories / Trace Memory (close the lid just enough to not put the system on sleep mode to reveal a code via the reflection of the screens)

The cases of Zelda and Hotel Dusk are requiered to progress.
On the 3DS and Wii U Virtual Console versions, pressing HOME treats the DS game as if it was put on Sleep Mode.

Are there any other examples?

Re: "The Higher-Ups Did Their Pitch & It All Just Stopped" - Banjo Kazooie Almost Got A TV Show, Here's Why It Didn't

HammerGalladeBro

I remember watching Viva Piñata in TV, it did have a Latin American Spanish dub. However, how much does it connect with the game? As in, the events of the show are in line with those of the game? I haven't had the chance to play it or the DS game.

I feel a Banjo cartoon could've worked if done in a style similar to Sonic Boom: Having Banjo, Kazooie and every other character living their lives while Gruntilda just messes around with everybody but does so in a hilarious way and doesn't feel angry or bad when her plans fail.
I know I would've watched that.

As an aside, 4Kids worked on Chaotic?

Re: Poll: How Do You Pronounce "Amiga"?

HammerGalladeBro

I've never met anyone that had owned one, but from various videos I've seen all of them pronounce it as Ah-mee-gah, which is how I'd pronounce it given Amiga is the feminine of friend in Spanish, as mentioned by others.

Re: "I Am Petrified" - Retro Gaming YouTube Channel Slope's Game Room Is At Risk Of Deletion

HammerGalladeBro

I feel bad for Slope's Game Room, some of the Youtube content I actually enjoy. I hope his case gets resolved to his favor.

However,...

Not only was I unaware of what was in this public WhatsApp group,...

You just don't join a community where you have no idea what is going on.
One thing he could've done if the Whatsapp group was in Spanish was to either Google translate a few comments or have someone do it for him to get the gist of what was going on instead of downloading the whole thing without knowing.

Re: Random: This Decade-Old Nintendo Handheld Is Now Worth Almost As Much As A Switch 2

HammerGalladeBro

Sorry, but my New 3DS XL isn't going anywhere. That little machine made 2017 the best year I have had. Just last February I found a copy of Metroid: Samus Returns and on April a sealed copy of Mario & Sonic Rio 2016 (though it's given me an error and doesn't boot up).

I got a Switch in the last days of 2019 and to this day I still wonder if I should've skipped it (but still get games).
The Switch is the only system I've bought out of peer pressure and not because there were games I truly wanted to play apart from the then-informally announced Metroid Prime 4. It took me until 2022 when I played Metroid Dread and Kirby and the Forgotten Land to start to be glad I got one.

Now, I've enjoyed the Switch as much as I could, but I feel something is missing (due to a lack of better word) from it compared to the 3DS or even the Wii U. I also feel like, for better or worse, I'm reaching a point where I'm starting to grow over gaming. I've come to accept that the Switch 2 might be my final system ever.
