we need a xenogears thread
to torture ZS with (Dragon Quest VIII)

SFTGFOP (El Tomboto), Wednesday, 15 March 2017 22:15 (nine years ago)

the pain

but yes, xenogears is so good

Karl Malone, Wednesday, 15 March 2017 22:20 (nine years ago)

xenogears was approximately as good as xenosaga wasn't

"xenogears did what xentendidn't"

tales of a scorched-earth nothing (Doctor Casino), Wednesday, 15 March 2017 23:37 (nine years ago)

I had the same issue with Xenogears! I couldn't get past a boss, but given where I was saved I also couldn't backtrack to level up.

jmm, Wednesday, 15 March 2017 23:46 (nine years ago)

oh hey I found the thread I made ELEVEN YEARS AGO

Xenogears, bitches

SFTGFOP (El Tomboto), Thursday, 16 March 2017 00:01 (nine years ago)

cute i admit

Nhex, Wednesday, 22 March 2017 23:10 (nine years ago)

It's good know that Etsy is there when Japan doesn't seem to care

Not the real Tombot (El Tomboto), Wednesday, 22 March 2017 23:31 (nine years ago)

you never forget your first dock sock

Not the real Tombot (El Tomboto), Thursday, 23 March 2017 20:12 (nine years ago)

switch isn't region locked right? so you could play them in japanese if localization doesn't happen

ciderpress, Thursday, 23 March 2017 20:30 (nine years ago)

With all their remakes how have they never gotten off their guff to do the SD series in English

Nhex, Thursday, 23 March 2017 23:12 (nine years ago)

been thinking about it and if they do bring over SD3 to the US in English, i'll buy a Switch for that

uhh wld it be worth it to run windows on a 3 year old macbook

lag∞n, Sunday, 26 March 2017 20:44 (nine years ago)

best option is a rpi emulating nintendo ds emulating a bootcamp mac emulating the work-in-progress pc version, or an iphone video in portrait mode showing the results of that, even better

Karl Malone, Sunday, 26 March 2017 21:09 (nine years ago)

hmm what abt just watching ppl the game on youtube

lag∞n, Sunday, 26 March 2017 21:11 (nine years ago)

srs quesh cld i run all the wii/wii u mario games on my rig

lag∞n, Sunday, 26 March 2017 21:12 (nine years ago)

Played snipperclips last night with my niece

Cute game

F♯ A♯ (∞), Sunday, 26 March 2017 21:15 (nine years ago)

i can run the mario galaxy games on my pc which has a fairly midrange video card (gtx 960)

ciderpress, Sunday, 26 March 2017 21:26 (nine years ago)

damn this is exciting news the mac emus for gamecube basically dont work lol

lag∞n, Sunday, 26 March 2017 21:30 (nine years ago)

yeah like you do need an actual video card i think, i couldn't get them to run on my previous laptop

ciderpress, Sunday, 26 March 2017 21:37 (nine years ago)

how do i make a video card on my lappy

lag∞n, Sunday, 26 March 2017 21:38 (nine years ago)

expensively apparently

lag∞n, Sunday, 26 March 2017 22:01 (nine years ago)

i tried 1.7.3d of this emulator. the game ran at 9fps and everything in the world was like 3 feet under the ground.

they are making quick progress and also making $20k+ of donations, which i am kind of iffy about. this being a brand new game and all and them getting paid to make it free. its a crowdsourced piracy.

that probably should get shut down tbh

Nhex, Sunday, 26 March 2017 23:00 (nine years ago)

should we have a separate thread to discuss crime, I feel like it deserves its own thread

Not the real Tombot (El Tomboto), Sunday, 26 March 2017 23:06 (nine years ago)

yeah emulating current games is not in my range of emulation interest

ciderpress, Sunday, 26 March 2017 23:24 (nine years ago)

i love crimes

lag∞n, Monday, 27 March 2017 04:50 (nine years ago)

this is not released in korea, but definitely going to pick one up when i'm in japan in may

i really don't understand who would choose to play zelda on their pc instead of buying one of these (if you have a pc than can emulate it, i assume you can afford to)

the ghost of tom, choad (thomp), Monday, 27 March 2017 05:19 (nine years ago)

can anyone really afford to pay $400 for one game? plus the time commitment

lag∞n, Monday, 27 March 2017 05:23 (nine years ago)

time commitment = do you think the emulated version comes with a 'press here for rupee$' button? I mean, it might, I don't know.

Andrew Farrell, Monday, 27 March 2017 09:32 (nine years ago)

that is basically what everyone does when they buy a launch system, no? how many have two games worth playing at the outset

Nhex, Monday, 27 March 2017 09:48 (nine years ago)

the switch is a handheld, emulating it on a PC is pretty far from the same thing

ciderpress, Monday, 27 March 2017 12:55 (nine years ago)

four weeks pass...

i am on dis ting now - it's fucking great, basically the most gorgeous handheld ever that also happens to connect to your teevee

if any ilxors wanna be nintendobuds my friend code is sw-3945-2059-5597

ben "bance" bance (bizarro gazzara), Wednesday, 26 April 2017 07:45 (nine years ago)

(i'll be easy prey in mario kart btw, i suck)

ben "bance" bance (bizarro gazzara), Wednesday, 26 April 2017 07:48 (nine years ago)

so hyped for mario kart delivery on friday. its a great little machine.

jamiesummerz, Wednesday, 26 April 2017 08:59 (nine years ago)

i can't wait to be able to walk into a store and buy one of these

adam, Wednesday, 26 April 2017 11:54 (nine years ago)

we picked one up last week. Came with Zelda, Shovel Knight, Has Been Heroes, and Snipperclips. So far Zelda is the big draw, the other games are ok. Any other current games out there that I should be looking at?

Moodles, Wednesday, 26 April 2017 14:28 (nine years ago)

there's not much else yet, next major thing is a port of the last mario kart, and then splatoon 2 after that.

ciderpress, Wednesday, 26 April 2017 14:30 (nine years ago)

I Am Setsuna is a fun Square rpg throwback. also King Of Fighters 98 for some dual joycon multiplayer times.

jamiesummerz, Wednesday, 26 April 2017 14:40 (nine years ago)

i just started Shovel Knight on PS4. that game is super tight

Nhex, Wednesday, 26 April 2017 16:01 (nine years ago)

I saw a kid with one of them standing on a rush hour metro yesterday and just smh

calstars, Wednesday, 26 April 2017 21:21 (nine years ago)

Kamiko is well worth the five bucks they are asking on eshop, it's a simple Zeldaesque game that can be played through in an hour although I see time attack people already getting that down to less than 10 minutes lol. Enjoyed the developers previous Fairune games on 3DS and this feels like a step up from those.

( X '____' )/ (zappi), Thursday, 27 April 2017 17:05 (nine years ago)

multiplayer Mario kart 8 on this in the office is heavenly

jamiesummerz, Friday, 28 April 2017 14:07 (nine years ago)

Puyo Puyo is one hell of a thing once you get the basic gist of it.
