run's quite sick though, that game is surprisingly broken

they did a sonic generations run yesterday, it was really cool. lots of glitches exploited, especially one that involves tricking the game into continuing 3d physics in the 2d sections

sonic generations is equal parts old school sonic and the good parts of post-sonic adventure sonic. also it doesnt have all the furry characters, just sonic and (iirc) tails

japan pretty much, because it actually came out at an appropriate time and was semi-successful as a result. it was in between the 8- and 16-bit systems in terms of power (12-bit? :v:). Famicom - 1983, PC Engine - mid-1987, Super Famicom - late 1990 made sense, while stateside the tg16 was released after the Sega Genesis :lol:

honestly i never knew anyone who owned a neo-geo as a kid. like there was one kid whose parents were divorced and were clearly competing for his love. i remember he had like a 5,000 point chaos army for warhammer when we were like 13

it was the best when it first came out in japan, because it was competing w/ the sega master system and famicom. but it came out like a couple weeks after the genesis in north america so it was like why bother

nailed it. most of them were gifts or purchased on discount though so idgaf.

i mentioned to my father i got smash before xmas and he made it rain. :D bideo shame dad best dad

the fact that they're not called Nintendollies is just iwata wasting my time

the problem with neo geo wasn't so much that the console was like $600, it was that the games were $250 each when you could get an snes console with 2 controllers, and two new releases for less than that

i mean even if i were a broken newly-divorced parent buying my kid's love it would be a far easier and cheaper proposition to just buy him everything for genesis+snes as opposed to :retrogames: on neo geo stuff

edit that reminds me, the really rich kids where i lived (and i went to the most expensive high school in my city so the bar was pretty high) would get a super nintendo copy device letting you put roms onto floppy disks :filez:
