Did GB games age poorly?

Only because the batteries tend to die after 20 years, but it's easy to replace them if you have a bitgame screwdriver.

SML doesn't use battery anyway, so not that particular game.

Did YOU age poorly?
>>
>>2860846
very funny you autist.

>>2860839
Yes. Funny how I still get the same amount of enjoyment from NES games that i played back in the day, but i find the same GB games that i used to love to be practically unplayable these days. But i think it's LARGELY because i'm playing them on my computer screen now. gb games really should be played on a small screen.

Have any of you actually beat this game? Is it best played 1 player or co-op? 55 levels seems like it could get brutal towards the end. Regardless, I'm hoping to get the cartridge this week.

never have beaten it, own only the sega genesis version because i like not having my view clouded by a map, fucking love the game.
>>
Beat it using the BCDF password. Probably the hardest game I've been able to beat. Definately better 1P, co-op is fun but makes the game that much harder.

Enjoy it, anon. Wonderful little game.

For repair or parts, I would imagine.

unless you're a collector in which case it's about as useful as the other pieces of plastic you've hoarded around the house

You only have to worry of there are ROM sniffing dogs OP. If that happens prepare for some Midnight Express type shit to go down.

>>2863943
They might think it is an explosive/illegal device honestly. Or they might realize what it is and simply confiscate it from you. Good luck with that - drink a Cuba Libre for me.
>>
>>2863943
I think even with the new relaxed restrictions a GB is considered too high tech to import to Cuba.

Completely different, they aren't really related at all besides sharing the same direction.

Mario Golf is ridiculously fun, especially playing with friends. The mini golf stages, man.

But I'd say the best Golf game I've played is Neo Turf Masters.
Golf (aka T&E Golf) on the Virtual Boy is also surprisingly good, believe it or not.

There's also the Hotshots series on playstation, but I only played one on PS3 which is not retro. It seemed a lot like Mario Golf.

I'm looking into getting a super nintendo and a flash cart.

Is getting a stock SNES my best choice? or should I get a Retron or some knockoff shit that plays snes games?

Stock. But you should already know better than to get a goddamn Retron, anon...
>>
>>2862809
I was just throwing it out there as an example
>>
Stock SNES is fine. If you're in a PAL country consider looking into modding (SuperCIC) to widen your options a bit.

Stay away from Retron, which is pretty much an emulator box fitted with cartridge slots marketed towards idiots. If you do want to go the emulator route, there are shitloads of options, almost all of them better than the Retron.

I am in need of inspiration to get out of the depression I'm feeling from the current state of the game industry. Documentaries, interviews of old game developers, articles, anything.

I was a wee kid during the 90s, growing up through elementary with the prospect of one day becoming a game developer. All those cool games being out and the companies that thrived during that time excited me. I use to read articles and watch videos of the joy of this. I couldn't wait to go into this wild frontier of video games and make my own creations.

After learning programming and studying game design...here I am. And I have never been more disappointed. I feel like I no longer have a place in this industry. The excitement has dwindled as the market becomes more closed and platforms continue to be pointed toward the non gamer. The thrive of publishers happily taking your proposals, as long as they were good, has decreased to non existence and it seems the best thing you have these days is being an indie. What a word that is. I don't like that term at all. What happened to just calling ourselves game developers?

Did I make a wrong life choice? Or has the business changed to the point that fledglings like myself will barely make it.

I always heard the industry and large companies treat their devs shitty. Just make games you want to as a hobby for fun. I think that is the most rewarding.

Here is a 90s vid that shows internet flame war drama is nothing new.

What were your memories of books based on video games? Were there any games you wished were novelizationed?

I have comfy memories from the old days when my father would read to me during bedtime.
I still recall drifting off sleep as he read the Worlds of Power Mega Man 2.

I used to read the old Mario CYOA books, those were the shit. Though the characterizations were inconsistent. Anybody read the Zelda ones?
>>
I read once a fan novelization of Xenogears in portuguese which also filled most of the gaps that CD2 left unanswered. Sadly, I can't find the site and I'm afraid it went down.

Most RPGs would greatly benefit from a decently-written novelization, actually.

The Blaster Master book was really good

What emulators are you using to play your retro games?

Just got an Philips MSX2 and a Megaflashrom and dsks i'm dling aren't working.

Looking for good copies of dsk games including:

-snatcher english translation
-aleste 2 (don't know if there is a translation?)
-sd snatcher translation

Not really sure if my megaflashrom is handling dsks correctly.

Nice grab.

WOOMB did a translation for Aleste 2, but like their Xak patch it's not out in the wild. You can find SD Snatcher disks on Internet Archive (TOSEC) + the Oasis patch on romhacking.net, but I don't have Project Melancholia's re-translation.

You could download the ROM and an emulator in less than 2 minutes if you really wanted to play it.
