The music in the first level of a game is the most important piece of music in a game by far. Especially in Silver Surfer.

It's true - I was just griping that the new Blaster Master game changed the level 2 music after doing a faithful remix of the 1st level. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LUnwRFMo6D0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4nAn5nBwboI

I'm going to have a friend of mine make me a knockoff of one of them, so in advance of him building me the box I ordered the hardware off ebay. Yeah, something like this is what I want. But I want it to look good and not just using a cardboard box. Plus I want to have the Pi itself sit inside the box and not shake around. That means it needs mounting brackets. Two questions for you. 1: Can I get a copy of the button layout you used? 2: How big did you mark the hole for the Joystick? Wait, Is that even big enough for the stick to work right?

That means it needs mounting brackets. If you're comfortable messing around with Retropie, it should recognize the official Neo Geo X stick Tommo put out. These sticks are awesome because despite the new logo they're in practice just a straight up Neo Geo stick but with a USB cord. They also work on PS3 and on any PS4 game with legacy support (so like all the SNK anthologies that are on PS2, Garou, King of Fighters XIV, etc.). Keep an eye on this Amazon link as I've seen them go on sale for $29.99. If Retropie doesn't notice them there's good troubleshooting here for what cfg to edit/etc.: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/6276/neogeo-x-arcade-stick/3 Neo Rasa fucked around with this message at 23:33 on Aug 14, 2017 |

This reminds me of the story my dad tells me about when he was learning to drum he used a set of textbooks and buckets with inner tubing stretched across the top. This probably works better as a fight stick than that did as a drumkit though.

I don't need their crappy remake anyway, I already have a Japanese copy of Night Trap for the 3DO. Came with the system when I bought it, along with other masterpieces like The Daedalus Encounter.

You are one of the people that I always agree with your posts and I don't even realize it until I look at the username (I browse with avatars off). I have $60 in eShop credits so I will get it today! You know what's one of the weirdest things I like about Sonic Adventure? Having to run around a hotel and city to get to each stage. Yeah I know the horrible Sonic 2006 did it but in 1999 it blew my mind and I loved just roaming around and stuff.

I managed to get my own copy, but only because I watched the second release like I do when I'm sniping eBay auctions  Not looking forward to ever wanting to make a purchase from them again.

Probably for the fun you could have in the shooting range, especially after wedging the crate in the door. I was easily amused as a kid.

I don't think they're at all similar; Carrington Institute is completely optional, and the game proper has a traditional stage-to-stage level setup with nothing in-between. Like, it's still pretty drat fun to explore Carrington Institute, but it's no Peach's Castle or Gruntilda's Lair, where you have to explore it to reach the next mission.

I liked the tiny open world areas in Sonic Adventure because it always seemed like there was some mysterious poo poo hidden somewhere that I wasn't figuring out. Like you can steal a chao egg from that store in the city. There's a huge empty forest for some reason.

They both had massive hub areas that had hidden secrets all over them. If you toucht he right wall you find something. Or if you progress far enough int he game suddenly that area will be different. Not enough games do that anymore.

I would blow Dane Cook posted:https://twitter.com/LimitedRunJosh/status/896928506797576193 I totally get that buying from LRG is a pain and they really need to realize that high profile remakes of classics are going to sell way better than some mediocre indie game. That said I've never had a problem getting anything I want from them, including Wonder Boy and Night Trap. It's seriously not hard to set a reminder for a few minutes before, log in, open the store page, and then just go through the ordering process at the same speed I would elsewhere. If you were a big tryhard youtube man or streamer why wouldn't you just do that or you-know just buy it digitally.

Been struggling to figure out how to get real Gamecube controllers working on PC. Has anyone here had any experience getting either 1) The official Wii U Gamecube to USB converter 2) The Mayflash Gamecube to USB adapter To work on PC? I think my specific use case needs 1 to be further converted to XInput like x360ce?

I know people have mentioned it here, but if you have any love for 16-bit sonic games, or even Chaotix, you owe it to yourself to get Sonic Mania on whatever modern platform you have. It is literally the Sonic 4 we have all been waiting for since 1994

Yeah, count me among the many who purchased Sonic Mania yesterday and am quite satisfied with it. The only gripes I've got are that I still don't like the blue sphere special levels, and the first half of the Robot Sonic fight was pretty kludgey.

The blue sphere levels handle very closely to the genesis versions in my opinion. Which is good if you're used to them, probably not if you're not

Hey guys, so I recently decided due to personal stuff going on in my life and lack of use these days that I'm gonna sell my retro game collection. I figured I'd give you all a heads up in case you're interested... right now, I've just got PS2 and PS3 stuff for sale, but I'm going to be selling my Gameboy, Super Famicom and N64 ccollections as well. I'll post again in the thread as I put up new threads in SA-Mart. PS2 games and console PS3 games

If you want to use it with just any game, you can switch it to PC and use x360ce (for a little bit I was playing rocket league like this, two stage trigger was great for accelerate/boost). If you're using Dolphin, you can switch it to Wii U and yep it works perfectly. (It'll also work set to PC but I think you have to map it manually then)

Trying to track down a mystery: https://twitter.com/mistydemeo/status/897888797924311040 What is the game on that screen? We know it's for the Wii and we know that the developer is in North Korea under the name Nosotek.
