Shadowgate is better

>>4192340
These kind of games are too hard. It's just a lot of clicking on items and guessing what to do with each one until you happen to get lucky and guess the dev's obtuse logic.

This isn't Sierra's games, anon. There are some guesses yes, but nothing that extravagant. The only part that got me in Deja Vu was using the truth pills. Shadowgate got me with finding the damn holy water to use on the hellhound.

Same game as Tetris Attack, but with way comfier artwork.

Second loop of this game is the exact opposite of comfy.

Pokemon series obvs -- let's get that out of the way, and probably Harvet Moon series -- Animal Crossing

maybe it was a ram thing

>>4208553
It was probably so you can differentiate the characters between one another more.

I actually kinda liked the game gear fatal fury 2 port.

The only home port of Capcom The Punisher for Sega Genesis had really ugly graphics and sound for some reason. Shame as it's a great game.

I am interested in repairing some rechargeable battery packs that I got for original systems. I have a PSOne third-party rechargeable battery (which goes with the screen and fits underneath the system) and I also have a Nomad battery pack (Sega original rechargeable, MK-6102, listing NiMH cells inside on the back label).

Neither one holds a charge, but I know people have replaced the cells inside before on rechargeables like these and gotten them to work again. As far as I know, it involves getting in there, removing the old packs, and inserting new packs in their place, making sure to match the voltage closely (though I'm not 100% on how that works).

I'm already planning to do some solder practice on some cheap junk electronics (since I'm sure that will be required at some point in this), but I want to make sure I have the theory down right for the process I want to do. Is replacing the cells on a rechargeable battery feasible in this way? And if so, how do I really know that I've gotten the 'right' battery? The nomad is a confusing one for me in that regard, the power supply is 10V 0.85A, while the 6-pack of AA batteries is 9 volts (by merit of the battery voltage) but then I also learned that not only do alkaline batteries drop off from 1.5 to lower voltages as they run, but rechargeable NiMH AAs run at 1.2V the whole length of the charge. And then I read that electronics seem to run at a range of voltages along the length of the battery output, and yadda yadda yadda, some more details in there, but in general it sounds like voltage is really variable, so how do I really know what is correct or incorrect?

If it involves telling me to go research electronics then that's fine, but some direction would really be appreciated as I'm not sure what part of the field to study for this info.

Easiest thing for you is to just replace the batteries with ones that are the same voltage and be done with it. You can learn the irrelevant but related stuff later.

I recently bought and fixed a model 2 genesis and the only issue I found was there were wires connecting directly from the dc to what is labeled "CF1"
Removing the wires and resoldering the dc port fixed it entirely and there were no issues. I just want to know the purpose of why they did this.

Is it the one by Retrohq? I ordered mine last week, waiting for it to arrive. How are you liking it so far?

I tried it a while ago and came to the conclusion that it's a bad game. I never figured out what causes new games to unlock, and many of the games are bullshit hard.

>>4206791

Only stores like 8 games into RAM, other than that it's perfect. I was order 50 something, no idea how fast the guy is pumping these out.

That's why I'm asking here. Rotating the stick seems to make a pan fall out of the ceiling & hurt Poke-kun. I'm debating whether I should buy a physical copy so I can use the google translate app on the manual.

was it plugged in ?

>>4206712
There was like a 99% chance that the pin connector just needed heavy cleaning.

>>4206712
It was probably just dirty.

There is a repair/mod thread here from times to times. Can't seem to find it atm.

>>4205875
that shit isnt vaporware?

You realize it's never going to get better, right? Fucking author's so busy getting together three batches a year he's barely touched the software side. Plus even with improvements the parallel port speed will still gimp it.

>>4205875

Still waiting for the Chinese to fucking copy it already, hurry the fuck up you rice sniffers you copied the everdrive quickly enough.

Catman?

Holy fucking shit it is you. Yes, it is impressive. Catman series is well regarded among the badhacks group. When the fuck are you gonna finish catman 5?

I fucked around with Tilelayerpro, SonEd and Lunar Magic when I was like 12 too. I forgot the name of the hex editor I used but it was commercial you had to crack it to work. That doesn't mean you're smart, you know.

For the love of god and all that is holy....
Does anyone has this VST software that replicates the sega synth chip? Any links?
I don't want pay 10 euros because I don't have the money and also I don't know how to. I know I sound fewish af but you get my feeling.

I also just remembered that the original Playstation had an internal power supply. Is any aftermarket switching PSU available, and do you need a specific PSU depending on what revision you get?

Why that specific series?

That's a funny way of looking at it, bro.

1. Get a mod that lets you skip the Temple of Trials.
2. Head over to Klamath as soon as the game starts and pick up the Pipe Rifle from the shack on the northeast side of Klamath.
3. Run over to The Den and murder Tubby and Flick with the Pipe Rifle for all the weapons, ammo, and items you could ever need to start off.

The temple takes like 5min, just run through...faggot.

It shouldn't be too hard for players with Fallout 1 experience.

wtf I didn't even think this was possible.
