God, I remember that game being expensive back when I wanted it for some reason in 2002 or so. Looks like it still is, though I'm not seeing any sold ebay listings, just high asking prices.

Reminder to replace batteries and capacitors /vr/.

Always use high quality batteries and caps. The no name china ones on ebay are just begging to fail.

Contacts only need a bit of 99% Isopropyl Alcohol and some rubbing with a qtip. Please do not sand contacts or use other abrasives . Use a bit of common sense.

Be safe when working on electronics. Happy gaming.

Why do game developers drop supporting old consoles?
I understand if there are features really resource demanding, but sometimes I just don't understand. I always felt like SNES and Genesis are the pinnacles of 2D gaming (NeoGeo is something incredible), and further platforms don't make 2D any better - it can't be much better than SNES and Genesis were.
What am I thinking wrong?

Simple answer, market.
>>
>>3105029
It's this. If you had a company, would you really want to compete with yourself? Why spend resources developing for your older things when everyone has "the latest and greatest" current thing.

Supporting older consoles would just be a money pit.
>>
It's not just developers, but the console producer itself would still have to be behind it. Like if Nintendo were to start up making Super NES games again, they would have to reproduce dev kits, get the factories to start making SNES motherboards and all the chips & bits for them too, not to mention make new moldings for the plastic cases. and so on. Even though it's an old system, the costs of starting up such a project would essentially be like making a whole new system. With that in mind, just work on an actual new system.

Retroarch can not detect compatible, correctly placed schp bios.

I have been tirelessly frustrated for 3 months by this shit emulator which also happens to be the only emu that works at all on android. 80 hours to get it adjusted for one ps1 game, blown out of the water by the revelation that I just need to use schp1001. OK, now I can't get retroarch to even recognize that the file exists and sure as hell can't select it as the bios.

Are you retarded? There's so many free emulators on the app store for NES/SNES/GEN/PS1 and I think even PS1 that work well.

If the bluetooth adapter for the SFC/SNES actually comes out (like they've been promising for close to a year now), would you be willing to swap the corded originals for these?
As an owner of one for general use, I have to admit it's comfy as fuck.

How do you feel about integrating newer technologies into older game consoles in general? (Like having an RGB-HDMI for the Dreamcast, as another example).

Why in the unholy fuck are you trying to emulate a PSX port of a PC game on an emulator? (Presumably on a PC)

Anyways, occasionally PSX games come in .ecm files, which is a type of compression. So you need a program to unecm them. Google it.

Besides that, I dunno about other emulators, but on Mednafen you need a .cue file to run the game. Usually they come with the game, and if they don't, you can also google how to make them. It's piss easy.

>>3104671
Not OP. Well, the PSX version at least have some positive aspects. Like fully synchronized Voice for other languages.

>>3104696
What's positive about that? I was glad the game didn't have a localization.

He's being a little punk because this Special Edition reissue expansion pack was only released in Europe. Regardless, this version changes the way ships handle so it's literally subjective whether SE is better than WO3.

did DKC really push the hardware or just the programming and resources of the devoloper. iirc all the 3d was pre-rendered in that game and it plays smooth with no slow down. my copy of u.n. squadron will slow down the snes considerably though.

58 KB,
I was considering an Intellivision recently. I was online and saw that Intellivision 2 was cheaper, but then read that they put some half-assed scheme into the console so that it purposely couldn't read games made by Coleco, as well as a few other games caught in the cross-fire.

Is it still possible to play those games somehow, or is it just not worth it and better to go for an original intellivision?

As an owner of the original console I can honestly say, don't bother. Going back and playing those games on the PS1 was kinda painful and soured me on the idea of ever trying to get it again.

But if you do, make sure to get the voice pack.

Nooooooo...the INTV is a great classic console, with classics like Discs of Tron and an emulation on the PS1 can't replicate the experience of a real INTV with it's weird controllers and woodgrain style.

>>3103032
I have played with the voice unit once upon a time (BOMB SQUAAAD).

I like my 2600 so I don't see why I wouldn't like an INTV, plus the RPGs sound boss. The most that I remember reading is you really want the inserts as well as the manuals.
