Yeah he'll expand it and then charge you again. I guess if that's what you have to use on iPhone, then that's what you have to use, but I would steer clear of his stuff unless you have to.
Subscription services are terrible. End of story. You might like them, that's fine, no one can deny they are convenient in a lot of situations, but they are an absolutely awful system for the most part.
@Daggot Emulation is great, it seems like you have some chip on your shoulder and think it's inferior to original hardware, but it really is not. As for TV connections, I'm fine playing games on my OLED TV with Bluetooth controllers, it is definitely not a worse experience that my super Nintendo on a CRT TV when I was a kid.
@missingno_fgc I'm not trying to ruin anyone's fun, it's a very simple elegant game design, it's just my personal least favorite out of the top handful. I really like the anniversary editions that came out on DS/3DS.
Puyo puyo is probably the worst game with as many clones as it has. It's got to be close to 100 if not more, and the basic system is fine, but very few people have iterated on it in any interesting way, and honestly out of the big name falling block games, it's hands down my least favorite. Though I still play it.
What did this guy sell his soul or something? How is this thing even getting traction? It's like an analog pocket but ugly and stupid and generally less useful.
There's a funny David Sedaris quote about not agreeing with people until you found out who they voted for in 2016. That's how every response on this page makes me feel.
Bullying certainly happens a lot, but my experience the people who say they're being bullied usually aren't the ones who are. With exceptions of course.
@LioKizer Did you really make an account just to go after this guy? I mean don't get me wrong, he seems like a grade A tool, but don't you have better things to worry about?
@Blast16 There are hundreds of screenless devices capable of functioning as emulation game systems. But also you can just dock the device never look at the screen.
I really like the design of this from what I can see, it reminds me of shovel Knight a bit, but I don't like the sort of bullet hell style bad guys, though clearly that comes from the megaman influence, so it's to be expected.
You could certainly play it competitively, but there's a reason That NES is still used as the standard, and it's because it doesn't have all the garbage that the uninitiated call "improvements".
Today I learned about skate and destroy. I guess I missed it because the best part of the Rockstar team was busy developing for N64 at the time. Though actually this was a late release game, so I guess they were busy on GTA III
@Digglerdig I am probably in the 99.999th percentile of humans who think about materialism, it's causes and effects, and the best ways to negate it as a natural desire. I understand your points and think they're valid, but I also know that people will do just about anything to justify their materialism without a second thought. I'm not claiming to be perfect here or anything, but I try to only own things with a practical use.
Kind of a big deal, I think this is the first time a port will be designed with consoles in mind. There were a couple decent homebrew projects for GBA and such but I found them understandably clunky.
@jimmytodgers I don't disagree fully, but I do think that putting so much emphasis on the physical item itself detracts from value that it inherently has. Be that a game, comic, movie, etc. I try to appreciate things regardless, but I do understand the importance of tangibility in world where the Internet is just this endless pit of nothing. I think there's a balance that should be struck, but there is so little balance in anything today
My favorite thing about the modern Age of video games is the separation from physical materialism in relation to games. Personally I find the desire for more stuff fairly abhorrent.
@Blast16 I haven't actually held one, though I was very interested from the start about what the d-pad would be like. From what I hear, it neither does the clicky tactile feel, or the more classic SNES style correctly. Personally I want to forget my finger is on a d-pad.
@Blast16 I won't say it's as easy as pairing a switch controller, but my sn30 pro is by far the best all purpose controller I've ever used. And the ability to switch between modes at will basically means I have an extra controller for four different things.
@KitsuneNight You might be in a minority, but I'm happy to be in that same minority. I find people who need achievements to enjoy a video game to be pretty unpleasant to interact with.
Engaging in bloody combat on a sex toy, this must be something new use of the term "safe for work", that I'm unfamiliar with. I wouldn't recommend having this on your computer screen when your boss walks by

Oh it's a battle course in Mario kart 8. I was going to say, the only two levels are in Mario kart 7
Re: The Making Of: Below The Root, The 1984 Metroidvania Masterpiece That Predates Metroid And Castlevania
It's cool to know that I can know so much about games, and still find out about a game that I've never heard of, and be excited by it.

Looks about as bad as the two Australian comedians who pop readily to mind.
Re: Genki's SavePoint Is Like A Modern-Day Memory Card For Your Steam Deck, iPhone And More
So basically they made a giant micro SD card.

I love falling block/ match puzzle games about as much as anyone on the planet, but this game looks terrible.

Re: ROMHacking.net Is Winding Down After Almost 20 Years
Noooo. So sad. This is what happens to every community unfortunately. The entitlement that most people have is jaw-dropping.
Re: Internet Sleuth Discovers Eighth NES Game In N64 Animal Crossing, But It's Now "Lost Media"
Wait, so can you theoretically just put any NES rom on a virtual memory card and load it in animal crossing via emulation?

Re: F-Zero-Inspired G-Zero World GP Is Now Available For Your Game Boy Color
@Migoshuro Not a problem. The original headline said something along the lines of "Now you can play F-Zero on game boy".
Re: F-Zero-Inspired G-Zero World GP Is Now Available For Your Game Boy Color
@Migoshuro That is NOT what the original headline said. Maybe check the date of what you're responding too before you are so scathing.
Re: How Well Do You Know Castlevania?
I got 9/20, which may seem bad but I've never played a full game, so I'm fine, plus now I know.
Re: Traumatarium: Penitent Is Coming To ModRetro Chromatic And Game Boy
When I think of fighting fantasy, I just think of that sweet ds game.
Re: JALECOlle Famicom Edition Brings Jaleco NES Classics To Switch
@bobrocks95 Oh ok, yes I agree untranslated games have a lot more equity.
Re: GTA Publisher Rockstar Games Once Tried To Make A Tony Hawk Game

Re: JALECOlle Famicom Edition Brings Jaleco NES Classics To Switch
@bobrocks95 Pinball quest got a NA release my friend.
Re: JALECOlle Famicom Edition Brings Jaleco NES Classics To Switch
I freaking LOVE pinball quest, but this is far too much to pay. This is what I just paid for rogue, and that was a really complex port.
Re: The 'Kawaii' Is A Nintendo Wii The Size Of A Keychain
If they refuse to port the Rogue Squadron trilogy to modern consoles, this might be the next best thing. RS3 is a top ten co-op game of all time.
Re: 'Batman: Revenge Of The Joker' For The Sega Genesis Gets Impressive Fan Overhaul
This is probably my least favorite video game of all time, and it blows my mind that people like it enough to hack it.
Re: For The First Time In A Decade, A Nintendo World Championships Gold NES Cart Is Up For Sale
Yeah it's a really important game, which is why nobody owns it, and I didn't know it existed until just now.
Re: The Game That Inspired The Term 'Roguelike' Is Now Available On Switch
@KitsuneNight I used to hate rogue likes and now love some and hate the others. The term has just gotten out of hand.

Re: Rockstar Came Extremely Close To Releasing 'The Warriors' On The GBA

Re: Interview: Say Hello To Jocelyn Benford, The First Person To Give Princess Peach A Voice
Yeah, but those aren't the sort of fans you want.
Re: You Can Now Play Sega Rally 2006 In English, Thanks To This Handy Fan Patch
That's actually awesome, this is probably highest profile racing game without an English release.

Re: "We Passed A Somewhat-Obscure Game About A Plumber" - Terraria Overtakes Super Mario Bros.
Terraria is addictive sandbox junk. I'm not saying it's bad, it's just not the same thing, or even close to it.

No clicky d-pad, no deal. They are beautiful though

Re: Fans Get Excited As 'Marvel vs. Capcom 4' Gets Name-Checked In Deadpool Comic
@mashk No, everyone here loves 3d fighting games more than the good ones they used to make. You're all alone.
But seriously, I think it fits certain games, like the injustice games, and platform fighters and stuff, but yeah SF6 looks silly to me.
