Is this a great game to introduce to a young relative? One who's never played a video game before. I mean, it's easy, fun and colorful. What other games are great for 5 year olds?

Guys, I am looking into getting one of these but have no experience with them. I notice tons of cheap Chinese ones on ebay, are they any good? Also are there any adapters that are pre modded or that I can mod (I can solder) so that I can make use of the expansion audio in games like Akumajou Densetsu? I know about the NES mod but I would rather just mod the adapter if that is possible.

That one has a little chip that is probably a NES copyright chip. If your adapter doesn't have one, a front loading NES will blink on and off but that can be fixed by going in and clipping the power leg on the 10NES chip to disable it. It sounds like you don't want to open up your NES though.

On that note, adding expansion audio support is literally just about getting the audio signal that comes out one of the Famicom pins (you'll have to look up which one) leveled out and connected into the audio output of the NES. The tidiest way to do that is to add an appropriate resistor (again, look it up) to the adapter using its legs to bridge the pin to one of the NES's pins that go to the expansion port on the bottom of the NES that never got used and then pop off the cover on the bottom and run a wire from that pin down there to the pin that ties into the audio output. It's pretty simple and not really "opening the NE" but if that sounds like too much for you you can literally just solder an RCA barrel connector to the FC expansion audio pin (preferably via that resistor) and run it out the cartridge door and attach it between the audio output and your audio cable. It's a really simple straight forward mod.

Just buy a Famicom faggot

A front loading NES is superior in nearly every way to a base Famicom.

I really want to get into this series, so I thought I'd get some tips before jumping in. I've read somewhere that enemies scale with your level, which threw me off a bit since I often grind in jrpg's and wouldn't want to get destroyed later on because I leveled too much. Is grinding really that harmful in this game? Also, which version of Lunar 1 should I go with?

Any tips at all would be appreciated.

Sega CD for both games.

If you own that version then go for it, but if you're emulating I recommend the Sega CD versions of both.

Grinding isn't harmful, the games are pretty easy and straightforward. Just jump in and enjoy.

lol, I've seen many silly console war drawings from kids on magazines, like they killing each other with fatalities and such, but this one is hilarious.

I like Sega though, so Sega going 3rd party isn't funny. Although I never minded Sonic on Nintendo because idort.

So the March of the Black Queen manual told me to not forgive Deneb because it'll increase my reputation. Did I fuck up? Now I have no cute anime witches in my army and all I got to show for it is a Pumpkin+ which doesn't seem to do anything.

>>
>>4161257
Witches are sort of the best units and sort of the worst units.

Deneb is the best witch.

Pumpkin+ lets you get Halloweens IIRC which are sort of like Pumpkins except way better

Pumpkins and Halloweens are both totally broken units that do ratio HP damage
>>
Chances are you'll never be able to accidentally stumble into the correct choices you need to get everything anyway. It's possible but you need to do a bunch of different things in a very specific sequence. If you're not playing the game with "recruit all the special characters and get the best ending" walkthrough from the beginning, then just do what seems fun to you.

The Pumpkin+ lets you promote the Pumpkinhead monster. I don't really care for them in either form but your mileage may vary.

I am using Bizhawk and its TAS Studio for recording longplays. I am not into speedruns or such things but i love to learn everything about a game and these tools enable me to do it without having to play a game 100x before i finally get it right.

Also some games are so brutally unfair I would have never seen all of it without the help of those tools. Not talking about Contra 3 in particular. Take Turtles II for the Gameboy for example. This game is nuts. Some parts are litterly impossible to play without getting hit.

TAS can be cool, but I can't stand youtubers who upload TAS and make no mention of them being TAS.

I'm looking at you Amy Rose.

TAS is cool when it's showing off some humanly impossible shit. If you're only using tools because a game is hard then I don't think that's going to be a very interesting longplay.

I think they're fairly funny to watch and can offer sort of a compressed impression of a game that may or may not be better than an edited "highlight" video, like people who mainly focus on their comedic commentary like certain angry nerds that seem way more popular than they deserve

Ultimately though I think the best first step in using a video when you're struggling with a game is to clarify some specific point where you're using the wrong technique, and tools/trainers are more for after you've gotten everything you can get from a game as-designed then maybe one might watch how the "pros" employ the tools I guess, for a game you really wanted to wringfor every bit it's got.

Firing up a TAS video for some game is mostly just comedy to me. I struggle to imagine people ricocheting backwards through screens as fast as they can dead seriously.

Was the blurring of old snes models like a crude form of anti-aliasing? Do you think it was effective?

>Was the blurring of old snes models like a crude form of anti-aliasing?
No. At least not intended as such.
It's just noise over an analog signal. The SFC Jr. has less, and better components that had less noise.
Thats all.
>>
>>4160960
i'm sure I'd read it was intentional, and the later models that lacked it were a result of cutting production costs
>>
>>4162208

More likely it's the result of nobody cared, including the people buying it.

In America, later Genesis models had better sound. Also unintentional, most likely.

Some decent action, a bit of cheap level design, puzzles that are solvable but sometimes needlessly tedious (and one that you'll have to look online to solve if you don't own the game complete with all booklets), and a fucking damn awesome story.
