@Blast16 It's just that anytime people talk about Buble Bobble it's always the NES port yet the Master system version blows it away with better graphics and way more levels. Master Sysyem version never gets a mention.
Should have launched it worldwide in 1999 so they could have upped the ram to 24MB added an extra analogue stick to the controller and increased the storage of the vmu to 512KB and then jobs a good in may have lasted another year.
This reminds me of an interview with one of the developers of Theme Park on Sega CD claiming the reason it didn't have a save file is because it would have took several megabytes to save and the Sega CD only had 8KB despite the PS1 and Saturn saving your park and everything with less than 8KB. They then decided to use a 10 character password that just saved what park you unlocked which would have took a mere 10 bytes of memory.
There's still room for Mega Drive Mini 3 add 32x titles and the Mega Drive games we still haven't got like Streets of Rage 1 and Alien Storm etc and your onto a winner. Sega Master System mini with 50 games for £50 with 2 controllers count me in. A Dreamcast mini with 20-25 games for £100 again get on it Sega it's totally doable.
What a time to be alive N64 did ok here in Europe but it was only out 4 years 1997-2001 though the Saturn flopped hard. I wouldn't say the console market is healthy there's only really Sony left properly standing Microsoft have all but pulled out and Nintendo has gone their own way with their hybrid which is basically just a handheld with TV play. Very few new exclusives have been released on PS5 it's one of the worst console generations of all time imo.
I still don't get why they release repros of games that already have physical versions I thought the whole point of Limited Run was to create physical versions of digital only games.
Not really surprised haven't bought a Limited Run game for years now. But I still don't get why they release repros of games that already have physical versions I thought the whole point of Limited Run was to create physical versions of digital only games.
Can't understand why they didn't include the N64 Duke game rather than the GBA one as that is much more similar to the other two PS1 games. I'm guessing the Evercade just didn't have enough grunt to it to run that game.
@ralphdibny I know I remember that sale I came so close to pulling the trigger then when I made my mind up they'd gone and are priced for over double the price now on eBay. Wanted one as the console wasn't really released here in the UK.
Just a shame the Mega Drive Mini 2 Pal version is lacking in the Mega CD department compared to the Japanese counterpart. Didn't see the point of including the Japanese NES in the list though thought that was kind of odd when you also had the western NES Mini on the list.
I think it will be a struggle to get it running well on 3DO due to it being a disc based system. Hell look at how cut down the 32-bit version was on the Mega Drive when using the 32X peripheral and that was considerably more powerful than 3DO. Now an Atari Jaguar port would be good.
@samuelvictor @samuelvictor Master System hardware was of course superior to the NES as it was a souped up Sega Mark II from 1983 just with a better GPU and slightly higher clocked CPU along with more memory, however they kept the same sound chip which is why the NES has much better sound. Mortal Kombat II on Game Boy is a better fighter than any fighting game on either NES or Master System though.

Re: Limited Run Co-Founder Claims Selling CD-Rs To Customers Was Always The Idea
But I thought it was about the case and manuals anyway and they are technically repros.
Re: Pre-Orders For FPGA N64 'Analogue 3D' Are Open Now
This must have some power as the N64 requires a fair bit of grunt to emulate as standard.

@Arcticpandapopz I'm guessing these carts will be pricey then thanks for releasing such a wonderful device.
Re: The PS2 Is The First Console To Be Selected For Japan's 'Future Technology Heritage Registry'
@Deuteros That console mainly saved the American market it was a beast for a 1983 console though.

@BLAZINOAH @BLAZINOAH for 3DO it would be excellent but the 32x version was not that great considering it was considerably more powerful than 3DO.
