They pitted console gamers with their "console" controller, against PC gamers with their keyboard and mouse."

zen death robot posted:Eventually the most expensive part will be finding working NTSC CRT Televisions. Those things won't last forever since the phosphors degrade over time. They're in such abundance that it's going to take a long rear end time for them to become rare. And by then they'll have the emulation of it down to a science.

My guess is another 10 years an they'll be tough to find in good working order. come to Montreal, people legit-leave once-expensive Trinitrons out on the street for the taking constantly, you just have to get to them before the copper scavengers do qnqnx posted:Every time someone mentions bsnes/higan I'm reminded that it was mostly created to correctly emulate an obscure Speedy Gonzalez game and the dev continuous sperging about rom file formats and rom headers and I smirk irl i love that this game's bug is basically "game locks up if your SNES is working too perfectly"

I almost bought a super famicom with super metroid when I was in japan but didn't because I no longer had a CRT TV. super metroid on the wii u is close but not close enough.

You don't need the super famicom. Take a regular SNES and snip the plastic tabs out and it plays super famicom games. The only region locking that existed back then was cart shape.

You get this screen if you pop it into a US or European system: Then if you live-switch the game's region with a switch on your modded system or through an emulator: and the game starts

I went to play some mean bean machine at AGDQ and it was one of adam_ak's PAL carts so I got one of those when I plugged it into the US genesis. Except it said 'onry for use in' and I smiled endlessly. qnqnx posted:created to correctly emulate an obscure Speedy Gonzalez game Los Gatos Banditos? that game owns bones

Been playin' Dragon Warrior 7 and god drat this game is long. I'm like 30 hours or something in and it doesn't show any signs of wrapping up. Earlier this year when I played 4-6 (the DS versions) I got through each of those in under 25 hours. If I had played this game as a teenager It probably would have been my favorite thing ever because I was of the mindset of "longer = better" back then.
