Quiet Feet posted:Back-to-it-ive-ness: Eh. Probably won't play this again. Road Runner cartoons were my favorites of the original Looney Tunes but man, nobody knows how to make them into a drat game. I'd like a game where you play Wile E Coyote and have to set traps & poo poo to catch the Road Runner, like Dungeon Keeper or something.

I'm not sure I've ever seen a better cartoon to video game adaptation than the Tom & Jerry arena brawlers (Fists of Furry and War of the Whiskers). Those are exactly what a Tom & Jerry game needed to be. Yes, Capcom has made a ton of quality titles based on Disney cartoons, but I feel like they'd probably work just as well if you substituted another IP.

I'm trying to think of a WB cartoon based game that I've enjoyed and the closest I'm getting is Crazy Castle which I'm not really sure should count.

I really enjoyed Bugs Bunny's Birthday Blowout as a kid, but I'm not 100% sure I'd qualify it as a "good" game.

I’m pretty sure Puzzle Star Sweep’s name was supposed to be just “Star Sweep” and whoever made the manual/cover put it all together in that green bar. Other games, Crossroad Crisis comes to mind, just have the game genre (like Puzzle) up there and the title lower down. Plus that sticker on the top just said Star Sweep. Shows how budget the releases were. My mom loved all them, though, doubly so because they were under $5

My OSSC arrived, and I finally got all my RGB stuff sorted. Hoo boy it is like night and day. Also nice to see my NES RGB install worked perfectly. I hadn't really been able to test it properly until now.

mariooncrack posted:Wasn't there a Tiny Toons game for Genesis that was pretty good? Those should count for WB games, right? Yeah there are at least 3 Tiny Toons games that are pretty solid, and then quite a few that aren't. Looney Tunes Space Race is one of the best WB toon games from what I hear. Duck Amuck on DS is a failed but kind of admirable experiment from WayForward in doing a loose minigame collection based on the classic Daffy Duck short. You're encouraged to gently caress with Daffy like in the cartoon (the player using the stylus is a natural match with the animator) and certain actions will bring up a minigame. IIRC there is a progression where the goal is to play them all and then something happens, but I forget what. They had to get a special dispensation from Nintendo for one of the minigames, which you play with the DS closed using only the shoulder buttons and following Daffy's cues shouted from the DS speakers, because normally of course closing the system puts it into sleep mode.

I probably should've asked this a week ago before it went back in stock, but I just wanted to confirm that the Beharbros Toro box is the best bet for Dreamcast with a Framemeister? https://www.beharbros.com/toro I assume I would just use SCART from the Toro to the Framemeister, and toggle RGB/VGA on the Toro where applicable?

EDIT: looking over the credits, Konami put out around 10 Tiny Toons games across NES, Game Boy, SNES and MD and the Treasure people had almost nothing to do with any of them - lotsa Goemon and TMNT people for the NES/SNES games, Konami's usual Game Boy team for the GB games and the Sega b-team for the MD games.

That’s what I have and I think it looks great through the Framemeister and on my 20L5. My dad is a huge Dreamcast fan and it’s the only console he plays (lol) so I got him the Akura, which looks just as good if not slightly better on a big HD screen. Personally I’m becoming more interested in direct-to-HD solutions lately because I often bring consoles to friends’ places but if you have multiple outputs the Toro rules.

The two different Scooby-Doo Mystery games, though not great, are both very good examples of the developer finding the right direction to go with the license. The best possible realization of a Scooby-Doo game would be a kid-friendly version of Amnesia. Also, Konami's TMNT games were technically adaptations of the cartoon, right? Those have to count as the best adaptation, to the point that I didn't even think of them because they've always been an essential part of the franchise to me.

Minidust posted:I've always suspected that NES Turtles was some sort of SMB2-esque reskin of an unrelated game. Like Konami got the TMNT license and then shoehorned it into some other game mid-production so they could crank it out as soon as possible. The game has plenty of token TMNT trappings but when you look at all the enemies it just gets weird. Fire guy, chainsaw guy, giant bugs, jumping man, naked frog, ceiling mosquitos, eyeball thing, flame shooting rabbit robot, etc. On the other hand a lot of licensed games were just weird so that's probably all it is. That's kinda what it is - it's heavily derived from a Famicom game called Getsu Fuuma Den, to the point where the Japanese version is called "Gekikame Ninja Den", partly because nobody in Japan knew what the hell "teenage mutant ninja turtles" were but also as a reference to that earlier game. It's not a 1:1 reskin or anything but a lot of the sounds, enemy/character movements, structure, etc is very similar: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5VuU2rvPmGI

I replayed this a couple of years ago and I would say it still holds up. Pretty large, colorful graphics, decent platforming design, good renditions of the show's music, but it's a quite hard game that actively hates you and expects you to memorize both enemy and trap positions.

I really can't afford a flashcart for my super nintendo at the moment. I have been hearing a lot about repro carts and honestly I have no problem buying them as long as the fact is stated and they are cheap. I have found various repros on Aliexpress for Turtles in Time, Earthbound and Chrono Trigger. Do repros work fine from Aliexpress?

I had bad experience with Megadrive repros from Aliexpress because their circuit board was thicker than normal and I had to use a lot of strength to get the cart out of my system. It ended up bending some pins on my cart reader, so I swore off repros and just got flashcarts instead.

I would not suggest getting repros for RPGS and other games with battery saves in particular since they usually don't include a battery or sram to actually store your saves. They're also usually hilariously low quality and fragile, so it's probably better to save up for the basic Super Everdrive model.
