I'm not dead, I just got distracted for a few days.

I think it's an obsolete, cobbled-together piece of shit that's been on programming life support for as long as I can remember.

The community around it is a hugbox piece of shit.

I can't think of a more user friendly Zelda editor. It's amazing.

He looks pretty cool though. His beta sprite looked dumb ass shit, but his final design is cool.

there is none

So you recommended a game you've never played?

>>3945594
>I've never played it

Oh shit nigga, you can play it co op with her then.

>>3945601
Yes. This is called confidence, it comes from knowing about things and people.
>>3945602
I'll watch her play it probably.

I would say depending on price. I just bought a Sega model 2 and a CD for under $80. Waiting for a good sub $50 price to get a Sega 32x. There are only about 40 games for the system so it may not be worth it.

The CD is nice because you can burn games. I also have a Everdrive which is nice for Master System games.

Question for fellow piratefags, Is a modded ps2 the best way to play both burned ps2 and psx games? I've been going back and forth between buying a modded psOne and later on getting a ps2, but if I can play both consoles on only one machine then I'll just settle with a ps2 with either softmod or a modchip on it. I want the best psx compatibility, else I'll just get both consoles.

How well does Harvest Moon 64 emulate? If it emulates fine then I'm not gonna buy it in my final buying spree of N64 games. I have almost every game I want and I plan on going on one last buying spree and calling it good. I already eliminated a few spendier games like Castlevania Legacy of Darkness and Ogre Battle 64 and Pokemon Stadium 2 because they seem to emulate fine and I see no reason to spend a shitton of money on these games if I can get the same deal on an emulator and they don't hold any sentimental value to me unlike the main games I want on the list. If I can knock Harvest Moon 64 off the list because it emulates well that saves me another $50

Don Doko Don is cool. Play as a garden gnome and beat shit up with a hammer. Taito is the undisputed king of this subgenre.

Try Doom, pretty good game.

Isometric 2D is literally the best style for any strategy game and should never have been abandoned.

Do you like finding hidden things?
Do you like puzzles?
If so, yes

It's the first in the series of games that became larger than life.
Certainly one of the biggest titles to be released on the NES.
It's worth checking out just so you can weigh your own opinions against all the hype and nostalgia.

I got this for Christmas in 1987 and still play through it every few years.

>>3943935
Completed the first quest a few months ago for the first time. It's pretty damn great. The beginning is a bit rough but by the time you get the boomerang in the first dungeon, the experience improves a lot.

All four casrts had corrosion oj the inside and the pins, they look clean to me so im starting to believe its actually something else.

Some of the traces coming off the pins are corroded away. you need to solder little wires where into the breaks are.

>>3943106
so i need a tester to check for continuity then...

Could you point to me just one of the traces you see as corroded? ive never seen carts like this so im not sure what to look for.

Where you live, anon?
I bought a new one from Stone Age Gamer in the U.S., though those are $30 which seems expensive for such a simple thing.

Ebay seems to have cheaper ones from Hong Kong, and then there's those Chinese stores people here talk about.

>I want my roomate to be able to catch me playing "Golf" alone in my bedroom at night.

>>3942574
Try tototek, gamedoctor and ufo. At least one of them will have it.

>>3942005
Do other games work?

>>3942005
Pic is blurry. Use hi-res potato for taking pic.

Hard to tell with the blur, but the contacts on the rear still seem suspiciously dirty. Have you tried taking an eraser to them yet?
