@-wc- It's a given. Nintendo always deliver killers apps. I don't get why they always have to have some huge new feature. SNES and GameCube were definitely worthwhile despite not having a gimmick.
@Green_Devil So, if you're wanting to write an article about price increases, how does one do it without mentioning politics? It's like writing an article about modern games and how a lot of them have been increasing in price; you can't ignore the factors for the price increase (ever increasing budgets, shareholders wanting ever increasing profits, etc) .
I feel like I'm experiencing a Mandela Effect. I've never heard anyone say N64 was hard to emulate until this video and the associated comments. Sega Saturn? Absolutely. I've heard people say it was challenging for years, but not N64.
@Cheddar_Cheeseman That's not accurate. Both of the most well known PC light gun options (Sinden and AimTrak) have recoil.
@slider1983 It's not. It's available on Sinden's site.
@-wc- Pretty sure the article is talking about the fact you need a PC, an emulator, a rom, and calibrating Sinden (which can be a pain I've heard). The other option is finding a CRT and an original light gun. Thus, playing Time Crisis has been unobtainable for many people (i.e. casual players).
@PopetheRev28 Switch and PC are last gen? Runs on PS5 via backwards compatibility, so I'm failing to see how it's last gen only.
@KitsuneNight SNK published this, so they have no bearing on Fighting Jam getting published. BTW, I can't stop watching your profile pic gif. It's very... animated...
@NEStalgia It was even crazy back then. That's why stores didn't carry the game. That's why it was censored on PS2. It has nothing to do with "over-censored political correctness." Only Acclaim would've pulled a stunt like this for shock value; it wasn't the only time either. They were desperate because they were on the verge of bankruptcy.
@Hyena Riiiight. You play for the "gameplay and music." And people go to Hooters for the wings. 😏
@CasePB That's not specific to just games today. Plenty of games throughout the years have been all look and no substance.
@MarkyVigoroth Same here. I loved BMX 2, so I'm bummed to hear we missed out on it.
@Chocoburger You took me off guard with the "first person shooter" comment. Really? Weird.
@Chocoburger Really makes think I should create my own branding agency. I get paid big bucks even though my client doesn't end up using anything I came up with? Sounds awesome.
@foodmetaphors Is it really that amazing? The names don't sell the product. The product does. How many video game system actually had a good name? There's not a whole lot.

@mjparker77 It's sad you don't see how big this is. It's not just arcade/Saturn to XBLA ports that will be rescued.
Re: 8BitDo Has Announced The Successor To Its Ultimate Wireless Controller
@-wc- Have you tried the Series or DualSense? Aside from the stick drift issues that plagues all three companies, they both are great controllers.

Re: Yes, You Can Buy Virtual Boy Merch At The Nintendo Museum
@nocdaes How is VR not decent now? Virtual Boy can't even be compared to VR. VR requires tracking. The Virtual Boy was solely 3D.
@Blast16 Did you read the article? Nintendo has acknowledged it over the years.
"it appeared in Tomodachi Life, WarioWare and even as a bonus item in the 3DS StreetPass mode."

Re: Review: MiSTer Pi - A $99 Gateway To FPGA Retro Gaming
@_Ex_ Isn't it still an issue? What's the draw of FPGA, if that's not a downside to software emulation?
Re: Egads, There's More Drama In The FPGA Retro Gaming Community
@CornNoble C'mon, you know why. Drama gets clicks. People say they don't like it, but they love negativity. It's why ragebait gets so much attention.

Re: $150 Handheld MiSTer With AMOLED Screen Starts To Take Shape
@nocdaes I want the accuracy of FPGA without needing to spend tons of money on carts. Software emulation on other devices is not the same.

@Bonggon5 Agreed. Same here.

Re: To Make Sense Of Xbox Multiplatform Rumours, We Need Only Look To The Past
@UK_Kev
PS5 isn't selling at a loss now. It's breaking even.
Also, why is a 10th gen handheld crazy? It's most likely what Microsoft is doing. Nintendo is probably doing a system similar to the Switch too.
