The only use I have for FPGA technology is to keep my CRT’s in use. So CRT connectivity is something I was ultimately looking out for.

Always interested to see these 3D 32-bit era throwbacks. In fact, I think many of them pinpoint that era’s technical more so than a lot of the 8/16-bit pixel games that shoot for their respective aesthetics

Watched a trailer the other day for another space harrier clone with a similar spandex clad heroine..

You’re gilding a turd. A meme turd. Get a more appealing character.

The oldies will probably always be an afterthought in the planning of major platforms. However, I think unlicensed developers will continue to innovate in this space out of (mostly) passion for classic gaming

Love leopard print..

I didn’t know the identity behind that art but I always really liked it.

It’s useless to be sure. Some are in it with their money purely for the spectacle, I guess. Strange times

Been playing this new translation on 3DS. Hopefully the sequels will follow soon. Nintendo could consider licensing Starfy again to a developer, but it’s probably in the pile of Nintendo platformers that seem to be dead

The list isn’t bad but it’s too short, lol. I need a NES Top 100 to really feel like the system is getting it’s justice, because there are just so many games that are still worth digging deep into.

Pretty surprising and looks about right. Hopefully they can keep rolling on with reviving these classic platformer kill-em-up games

Never played classic MGS, but put it on Genesis and it’s as good as done

Lagwagon or NOFX

Don’t know how I missed Gradius on GB but this article has surely rectified the matter. Let’s get that on NSO now

I don’t have a history with Frogger but I adore the game. I’ve been playing a lot of it lately, mostly the GG prototype (not sure what the history of that one is, would be good to know). It definitely needs a release but who knows if that’s ‘viable’ for Sega these days being a pixel game..

Bonk came to mind ya. Was just thinking the other day that a bonk tribute game in the original graphics style (a la Mega Man 9) would be so great

Pixel graphics stop looking nice, if not timeless in 10-20 years? Why would anyone say that? Oh, leadership within modern day Sega is saying that? Well there’s the problem..

I’m not looking for this type of device but it’s impressive to read about with the exception of the energy issues. Good review

@NicolausCamp definitely missing Kirby. Although I’d also accept Triple Deluxe as much as Robobot

Okay, Sega 3D games made the list, it’s a legitimate list now

A lost ‘kill-em-up’ style game? Awesome indeed. Hopefully it’s given the Clockwork Aquario treatment!

Really would like to see more PCE rereleases

I tend not to buy anything on a back order, so if there’s supply I’m interested in getting one

Preserving software was never going to be a commercial endeavour any more than the manufacturers have been interested in keeping the original hardware available.

It’s not going to be in the realm that the game publishers operate in if it’s actually going to happen. So the messaging from these publishers about harm simply can’t be bought into

I’ve had Krikzz everdrives for years but in recent times the rom hacks have been getting pretty impressive and so I’ve gotten into them. So I appreciate this coverage, definitely 👍

Whomever’s account is to be believed, even something in between, it doesn’t paint a pretty picture of the inside politics getting the better of Sega Management. Sega management is still trying to nail down an effective recurring strategy to this day for its bevy of IP. I don’t have much faith in the head of Sega. For all their surveys, fan creators do a better job of locating what’s appealing from Sega.

Doubt it will be Sonic Team bringing back anything, rather it will likely be an outside fan studio if anything at all happens

Really nice. Will get eventually

I really like hearing from the staff of M2

Having my own little stockpile of CRTs, I’m with him on that. But realistically I don’t think CRT monitors are coming back, sadly.

Why the heck not. Looks tempting too

Looks like an old GPD device that I bought years ago

Hoping a third Curse of the moon is in the cards. Would be great for us fans of classicvanias

More Curse of the Moon is all I want from castlevania

Good read. Certainly adds context to all the 90’s namco marketing I still have floating in my brain

Classicvania for me with bloodlines at the top of them

8-bit games are perfectly charming in presentation and delightfully test dexterity. Enjoy them through the lense of nostalgia or game making history

I would play Wani Wani World before rainbow islands

This site is a beautiful existence. May ‘23 bring it good things

That’s great news if it’s a good reboot

Was on an NES kick but now I’ve got the Genesis hooked up again. Alisia Dragoon was the last game I had on

I would love to hear more about Red Company. They must have had talented staff.

I’m hoping Konami puts together a PCE library package for Switch. Some HuCard and CD games would be just what I need on the Oled model. Of course if they don’t do it I’ll eventually install retroarch on it after the Switch is no longer current generation

@Axelay71 I imported a Duo R years ago and it’s one of my favorite possessions. I use a PS1 joypad Joypad Converter and a PS1 to SNES converter to get my wireless 8BitDo controllers working with it, lol. Not sure if more converter options have come out for PCE in the years since, but I would guess not.

I think he means they continue to flush money with Amico..

@-wc- Really. You don’t want a screen any bigger 5” for a truly pocketable device. I think it’s the perfect size. You can’t fit a steam deck into the Vita for example. But I can understand people wanting to play full sized PC and consoles games anywhere, it’s just no my idea of portable gaming

Is it possible to get a side by side with the Vita?

No more cordless phone console for family game night? Grandma’s gonna be sad.. Cancel that, Wii Sports is making its comeback, grandma rejoice

Reminds me of the old V-Tech cordless phones the family had back in the day more than anything gaming related lol

I’d like Retroarch to make official hardware including handhelds for their stuff
