I won a bunch of Saints Row/Agents of Mayhem-themed goodies from a contest at Volition and just got back from picking them up at their office. They gave me a t-shirt, some stickers, a Saints Row DVD "for internal use only, do not distribute" I haven't watched yet, and... A sealed copy of Freespace 2 in remarkably good condition. Too bad I didn't bother putting an optical drive in this PC.

Star Man posted:As if that's a problem these days: https://www.gog.com/game/freespace_2 The source code was released in 2003, too. I wouldn't open an 18-year-old PC game to play it, especially when I know there's some collector out there who wants it more than I do. The only PC games I still have boxes/discs for are Star Wars Galaxies, Neverwinter Nights Diamond, the BF1942 expansions, and Return to Castle Wolfenstein.

Speaking of 8bitdo, I got my NES30 arcade stick the other day, and I can only get it to boot up in xinput or dinput mode (based on the mode switch). The instructions say I should be able to get it into Switch mode by powering it on with Y + Start, but no luck so far. Works great wired on my PC, but I already have a stick for that and I was hoping to use this one on the Switch. And in xinput via Bluetooth, I can get my Retropie setup to pick it up, but only 6 of the 8 buttons. L2 and R2 aren’t detected. I have a hunch I just have to wait for a firmware update, but has anyone else gotten one yet and had any luck with it?

My 4inchNELL Mega Man Volnutt arrive in the mail!   My Mega Man is better than your Mega Man, because mine is Legen-wait for it...  Pretty little princess with frilly miniskirt  . -dary. Volnutt is a Legendary Mega Man  . His head's gone!   That's better. Safety First!  and I fixed my camera resolution to 16:9. The stand actually came with it, with a little aerial-pose arm, so that's a nice bonus. Neddy Seagoon fucked around with this message at 04:12 on Aug 25, 2017 |

If you put an "h" or "l" at the end of the imgur filename url, we don't have to load 8MB images. i.imgur.com/12345h.jpg instead of 12345.jpg Seems weird to care about in the day and age of today, but awful.apk crashes on some pages because of it, and some of us are on Sprint

Rollersnake posted:I'm redecorating my nerdroom. Anybody know of a not-hideous way to display loose Game Boy carts? I got one of those acrylic nail polish racks like people suggested from the MyLifeInGaming video. I have GBA games on it right now and some doubled up until I get time to rearrange, but you could imagine how a well organized one can look:  You can do 5x7 for GB/GBC games, or 5x11 for GBA games. They are deep enough to double up games (like I have my Link's Awakening DX cart over my regular Link's Awakening cart), and you can double up GBA games too by just flipping one to face the opposite way. However, if you want neat organization, just buy multiples. FireMrshlBill fucked around with this message at 06:12 on Aug 25, 2017 |

It's the cheapest modular shelving option they have and much nicer than the lovely black particle board WalMart media shelves I was previously using. RodShaft posted:Nail polish display racks. YouTube's blocked for me at work, but I assume you mean those tiered racks, and those look like they'd work perfectly. Thanks! Hopefully when this is all done it'll finally feel like a gaming library and a nice little space to relax in, instead of a bunch of random poo poo haphazardly crammed into too small a space.

Either way, it's better than keeping a significant portion of my game collection in plastic bags in my closet when I had a solution for everything else.

Secret of Mana is getting a mobile-like 3D remake not unlike the first game in the series did, on February 15th, 2018. This time, it will be on PC, PS4, and Vita. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKHjcnOGPhs

How "old man yells at cloud" is it that my first reaction was that I liked it a lot more in 16bit? Honestly the only Mana news that could get me excited was some sort of official English release of Seiken Densetsu 3.

Nate RFB posted:The heat death of the universe will occur before SD3 and Mother 3 come out in English officially. I definitely think it can happen since we got an official English release of the very first game after so many years, but that doesn't conflict with your point, I think us dying in a sea of fire is imminent.

... has Flammie always had the same haircut as Randi? and yeah, 16 bit sprites can be pretty generic but generic 16 bit sprites still look a hell of a lot better than generic pastel-textured mobile-friendly 3D models.

Legend of Mana. The Mana series has to be the most inconsistent series released by a major company and nobody I've met has liked more than two games from it. Yes, there's someone out there that loved Children of Mana.
