It's of course very nice of them, but I can't help but feel that almost nobody will play these games since there are better, more recent versions of them, except for research and a little bit of nostalgia of course. So it's not something a publisher would do for a more evergreen game for instance.
That being said, I just wish a law would prevent right owners from suing someone distributing their games as long as they're not currently sold.

@Sketcz It gets even weirder. The guy the itch.io page belongs to is not the actual developer, and they're selling at least another port from them. I hope they transfer the money but still, it's very unusual.

I remember finding also similarities in some backgrounds of Moonfleet.

@Grackler Same, I can't find it.

I like shmups, but unfortunately I suck at them.

@slider1983 Have you tried to clean your carts? Do you know anyone else whose carts don't work?

@slider1983 Then it's not updated.

@slider1983 The Mega Sg is compatible with the SMS Codemasters games. What are you talking about?

No mention of their skits with Tommy Tallarico ?

Damn I'm rich! XD

@axelhander Frankly, I read my post again and I don't get your problem. I was making a suggestion to avoid legal problems while supporting the homebrew scene. What is wrong with that?

@axelhander I don't care about my look.

This YT channel may be great but it tackles systems that are designed to use illegal content by definition, whether we like it or not. To avoid copyright strikes, they could review these systems by showing homebrew games for instance. It would be a great opportunity to showcase the work of developers at the same time, instead of whining.

Is it available in the US or in the UK? Nothing in France.

@Azuris well, the "problem", as I said in my initial post, is it uses a lot of processing power to calculate all that. People may not realize it because they're using it from afar and just wait a few seconds after posting their prompts, but there are remote servers that generate all that crap. If everyone starts doing it, it will be a huge problem.
Some people run AI locally, but they're still in minority.

@AJB83 That being said I get that you were slightly triggered by me using the word 'trend'. AI is obviously here to stay, because it was already there for important stuff like medicine anyway.

And I can also see it used more and more for video games, to avoid creating worlds and characters from scratch for instance. When I'm talking about a trend, it's these silly videos that look like fever dreams. I agree they're often fascinating, but I'm pretty sure people will get tired of them eventually. For now people have fun, play with it because it opened a vast area of "what if" possibilities, but I think in the long run, people will naturally focus on using AI for something more useful, that's all.

@AJB83 Actually yes. I had a heat pump installed recently, I've been recycling stuff for years, etc. I'm not perfect mind you, but I had my nephew build a PC that is both power saving and totally silent, I mostly play on Switch and I have an Xbox Series S (I don't give a ***** about 4K and ray tracing).

Not only does it look awful but it probably has a terrible carbon footprint as well. I can't wait for this trend to die.

@Nathendo Maybe! In any case, the article clearly needs clarifying...

There's clearly something wrong, here. Nvidia doesn't make audio chips afaik, and GeForce8 is not an audio chip anyway.

@bbbbbr I probably can but still, I don't like having to embed the full publication when I just want to share the video and make my own comment. I just don't understand why devs won't publish their videos on YouTube as well (or even a simple linkable mp4 format), it's way better for archiving things on the long run.

@bbbbbr That won't help me unfortunately because you can't embed Mastodon at all in WordPress afaik. YouTube is way more convenient for my retrogaming website.

I can't wait for other countries to ban X so that developers/hackers stop posting their videos on X only. T_T

23/25, and I messed up the first one because I stupidly thought it was a trick. ^^'
(in my defense, my GBA SP is a NES edition)

Star Trader was actually released yesterday!

@Damo Oh, I didn't know the remasters didn't have them (even though it's kinda usual in remasters).

@Damo And I get it, even though I'm not sure Evercade caters to "modern gamers" anyway.

@RossoftheRobots Yes, I've asked someone who is on the Evercade Discord and there are savestates as usual. So I don't really get TE's complains since saves are manual in EVERY Evercade game anyway. I guess the Tomb Raider remasters have auto-save, though.

@RossoftheRobots That's what I was wondering about actually. If you have to save with crystals that can only be used once, like it was the case on Saturn (and PlayStation I guess), I won't get it. Amusingly, most people I know who love Tomb Raider played it on PC back in the days, and on PC you could save any time.
I got stuck in the big room with the four trials and iirc you only had two crystals, so it was impossible to save between each trial, and you could easily die in the platform sequences between each trial. It was a nightmare to me.

Maybe it was intentional to make the cave look even more colossal in comparison! ^^

Edit: More seriously, I think it looks cute, and I actually wish more game boxes were that small.

Why did you have to spend that much money on Uber??? The subway was way more convenient during the Olympics (albeit a little more expensive than usual).

@JackGYarwood It's not available in France, either on Switch or on PlayStation (at least the web version of the store regarding the latter).

Is there any explanation about why some ACA releases (like last week's) skip the West?

It's not available apparently...

There's a video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WVJtyDDiNrI

The trailer is available on YT as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DEt3cL7vdXM

The video is available on YouTube as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6fP5HTLeCrU

For the love of God, why oh why do homebrew developers always share their videos on X only?... And this one has a YT account, so no excuse.

And MGM was bought by Amazon. ^^'

While the Switch is a great system, the 3DS is still the best video game system ever. Mic drop.

It's weird... The article makes it sound like the game was made to attract people who prefer "Classicvanias"... While the game is a Metroidvania with an 8-bit look, that's all. I'm pretty sure people would prefer the opposite, a Classicvania with a more modern look (like Rondo of Blood for instance).

They could have used better looking USB keys, but most people don't have a CD drive in their PC anymore, unfortunately, so it makes sense.

So the only female character would have been Kelly Kelly? That would have been unexpected.

"you lose the 3D effect (obviously)" isn't the emulator compatible with 3D displays (3D TVs, VR...)?

@1040STF Thank you. I hate when Europe is called UK, which happens a lot at Nintendo Life and sister sites. It would be about time to realize that an English web site isn't just read by native speakers.

Like Axel Stone's figure, the box looks nice but the figure looks like crap. And no, the sprite looks way better than that.

@shouryuuken It's mine as well, and I call it "stalk and gun", a phrase that was coined by Kurt Kalata regarding Crack Down (the true sequel to Shinobi for Yutaka Sugano). I recommend Huntdown if you haven't played it yet.

@Sketcz Thank you, I remembered your article but wasn't sure, so I wanted to avoid a blunder. I'll feel better when writing about it on my website, then (I'm Guillaume from MO5.COM).

I can neither deny or confirm.

@Poodlestargenerica It's not. I won't say it clearly because the game's creator didn't want to tell it explicitly in John Szczepaniak's interview, but it's easy to guess and the answer is in the following volume. It's a VERY BIG movie from 1989.
