Re: ROMHacking.net Is Winding Down After Almost 20 Years

I miss the early internet, when stuff like this were easy to find, and no fear of Nintendo shutting everything down...

Nesticle and Mame was the first emulators I used, back in 1997. Felt like black magic, being able to play those games on a PC 😁

I found, and saved, a lot of the fun romhacks.
Especially love the ones, that removes slowdown.

Hope another site takes over the torch.

Re: Metro Siege Is A Fantastic New Beat 'Em Up Coming To The Amiga

Imagine if we got Amiga games like this, back in the early 90:s, instead of the typical, rushed to market, euro trash. If they actually had put some time and effort into the action games, they could have been just as good as the ones on the 16 bit consoles.
I can't belive I spent money on those horrible Arcade ports, back then. They were all basically broken, and maybe running in 10-20 fps, if we were lucky. 😂
At least I got my money back, when I returned to the store, with that terrible Final Fight port.
Last time I ever bought a arcade game for the Amiga. Some things sure wasn't better, back in the day 😁

Re: The Race Is On To Save A Valuable Resource Of Video Game History

Still love to look through my old computer and videogame magazines, from the 80:s.
I stopped buying magazines, around 1994.
I though the magazines dropped in quality in the 90:s, and the 32 bit era just wasn't as exciting to read about. And around 1996, I got all the news from Internet anyways.

But I will keep those 80:s mags forever.
