I used to use a link cable between two gameboys to play mortal kombat. It was good!

I bet Pokémon is responsible for 99.99% of all gameboy link cable sales. What I’m saying is maybe they’d have sold a few more PlayStation link cables if they’d made a virtual cockfighting simulator first.

the sound of all of those monitors powering on at the same time, only constantly, is what tinnitus is, in case you ever need a reference

3D Megadoodoo posted:Now I really want one of those tiny Trinitrons. Ugh, same. US people, what's the likelihood of a screen like that being able to do multisync? I'm guessing fairly low or zero? I know running PAL stuff in the US is way, way harder than it was me running NTSC back in the UK. It would be either over composite or s-video. I'm guessing I'd need to look into the PVM world which is above my spending budget as it's not exactly an urgent need.

History Comes Inside! posted:I played that exact game like a week ago and yeah it’s bad My favorite game on it was either Vitrua Racer or Virtua Fighter. Both games were also out in arcades at the time and it blew my mind I could play them at home. I had the sega CD as well so I had some games that required all 3 systems but they weren't very good. Naw, 32x was kind of bunko, and playstation ate it's lunch and then some.

History Comes Inside! posted:I can’t live with those tiny screens anymore, I’ve been spoilt by giant phones. If I could replace my phone with a stand-alone smartwatch in a slightly larger than Apple Watch form factor, I think I would. A 1.5-2" screen size, I guess. Preferably Android-based and able to run full Android apps, not just WearOS ones. It would need all-day+ battery life, but I don't need 3D gaming power or anything, just calls and texts and enough power to run email, calendar, various messaging apps, maps, Firefox, Awful and a handful of other utilitarian apps, plus play music and YouTube videos. Anything heavy can wait until I'm at my PC.

I know we had a bunch of games, but the only two I remember were Doom and Star Wars Arcade. Doom kinda sucked, but if you had a Mac and otherwise couldn't play Doom, you could now play doom  I did enjoy Star Wars Arcade, it was an updated version of the the old Star Wars Arcade cabinet

It was honestly underwhelming for the work involved.

Me and my friends had about 2 LAN parties in the early 00's, but bahgawd they were glorious. Online gaming will never match playing Quake 3 in your friend's basement until 2 in the morning absolutely swimming in Mountain Dew and UFC videos.

Once, one single glorious time, I got to play Warlords for the Atari 2600 with a full slate of four human players. It's ridiculously fun for a game that's essentially multiplayer Breakout. e: Found a gameplay video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJNNw8j1xA0 Powered Descent has a new favorite as of 22:18 on Jun 29, 2022 |
