Re: SNES Dev Explains Why He Spent 600 Hours And $2370 Just To Give His Game Away For Free

KayFiOS

While I understand his reasoning for wanting to keep physical cartridges limited to 100 authentic copies, and thusly decided against releasing the ROM online, I would argue that by distributing the game at all, you are opening those flood gates yourself regardless. If one of those 100 people doesn't dump and upload the game somewhere, then they'll sell it for an extortionate price to someone who will.

Re: Poll: What Is Rare's Best Game?

KayFiOS

Between Banjo-Kazooie and DKC2, I prefer the former, but I also think the latter is the better game, Even if comparing it against the XBLA version of Banjo-Kazooie.
I might have put Banjo-Kazooie above DKC2 if Gobi's Valley and Freezeezy Peak didn't require each other's moves to complete, or if the game let you set Rusty Bucket Bay on fire, but sadly, neither is the case...

Re: Wii Fans Are Reviving The Console's eShop With 'RiiShop'

KayFiOS

This is good for people who want that Wii Shop Channel experience. Searching for games, downloading games, watching Mario run across the screen and shooting fireballs... And there are still games that are no longer available for purchase anywhere else, like Fluidity and Castlevania: The Adventure Rebirth... There are also games that were removed from the Wii Shop Channel, and I hope that this app lets you download those as well. I don't know why Nintendo stopped selling Yoshi's Cookie, but it was never rereleased on any Nintendo console since then.

Re: Fans Have Made The Original Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles Playable Remotely

KayFiOS

This is amazingly topical for me because me and my brothers have been playing the original Crystal Chronicles using a Wii and 3 backlit GBAs. It's a fun time, especially since each GBA screen displays different information that's randomized for each area you enter, and you all have a different objective as well, such as defeating enemies with magic attacks, picking up items, not healing yourself, stuff like that.

Re: Upset By Zelda Being $70? We've Arguably Never Had It So Good

KayFiOS

I've got to wonder who decides the price of these anyway. I'm okay with paying $70, but for $60 you can buy a bare bones Mario Sports title, but you can also buy a very well crafted remaster of a GameCube game for $40. I feel like I would have been okay with those prices being swapped. I might have even bought some of those sports titles.

Re: Talking Point: Where Do You Stand On "Ethical Emulation"?

KayFiOS

If the game isn't available on modern hardware, I'll usually emulate it if I want to go back to something. For example, I modded my Wii U to play GameCube games, like Luigi's Mansion and Super Mario Sunshine, but I still bought those when they were made available on the 3DS and Switch respectively.

Re: Poll: So, What's Your Favourite Controller Of All Time?

KayFiOS

Honestly, for the longest time I would have said the GameCube controller, but these days, I think the DualSense, Series, And Switch Pro Controllers are all better options, but, to me, the Series controller takes the win, because it feels the most comfortable in my hands. Plus, and feel free to disagree, but I prefer having the left stick parallel to the face buttons, unlike the DualSense.
