No Yamato? They're missing a third game, guess they didn't want to pay to localize it... Hopefully pricing is at least cheaper.

Retro-bit needs to loudly and publicly distance themselves from this guy immediately, and further apologize and expound on what they're going to do going forward to ensure this doesn't happen again.

I've gotten one "Collector's Edition" from them and decided it was kind of chintzy junk. That's a to each their own thing.

Past that I've gotten a select few normal releases, but now I'm worried the Gameboy carts they released are the wrong voltage.

I don't like their business model to begin with, though the switch to open pre-orders is much better than a 10 minute sell out. With such a large string of recent gross negligence it will take some very special titles to get me to buy anything else (and hopefully they just go to other publishers).

It would be nice to have the original voice acting/script as an option but I find it hard to believe there would be a lot of people pining for Working Designs' slop beyond the nostalgia factor. Like any other WD project these games desperately need a full re-localization and I'm tired of Victor Ireland constantly complaining that companies don't want to buy his fanfiction.

@Sakitoshi SD2PSX sure, thought you meant MemCard Pro 2 (which has some features SD2PSX has not implemented yet like auto cloud backups I believe)

@Sakitoshi I would much rather support the actual creators (8bitmods) than Chinese cloners. They're a good company with incredible product support.

Well, guess I'm the person buying the game just for this (on sale in the future though). I started the Wikipedia page for The Ocean Hunter- it's probably my favorite arcade game. Always dreamed of owning a deluxe cab for it.

This is in response to people/entities very directly violating the previous license terms and then the creator having to waste his time helping people troubleshoot these essentially bootlegged versions. Nothing they're doing is jerkish or manbaby-ish, it's a defense against people stealing the work of all the contributors.

The general shape of the Dreamcast controller is nowhere near ergonomic enough to justify spending $190 on, no matter how upgraded any buttons, sticks, internals, etc are. I'd rather try out the Retro Fighters pad.

@Poodlestargenerica That's why I said "if they do unreleased games like this I'd be interested". For this one in particular, looks like I could pick it up on NES for a little bit more than this re-release.

@Poodlestargenerica I think the achievements, overlays, custom music, etc justify $8 for certain titles. Pinball Quest looks to be a cheap NES title but if they do unreleased games like this I'd be interested.

The live translation overlay is genius honestly. Not as nice as official translation work but probably 1/10 of the technical work involved in getting the game to display roman characters properly. If it's the difference between something getting translated or stuck in Japanese forever, bring more please!

Would back to get just the keyboard to use on my actual X68000

@GhaleonUnlimited Would be nice to see if it's engineered properly! I've held off on the Cotton releases as well seeing that they were from Columbus Circle.

8-Bit Music Power was a Famicom music compilation cart they released several years ago. There is actually an updated version on pre-order at Limited Run Games right now if you're curious. It's basically a mixtape album on a Famicom/NES cart.

Anyone know if Columbus Circle releases are still crappy and using 3.3V flash? Their old 8Bit Music Power releases outright damaged consoles.
