Shining Force II was the first RPG I ever played, back in the days when you could rent the entire console. I absolutely fell in love with that game.
In addition to many listed elsewhere…
Beyond Oasis. Castlevania: Bloodlines. Rocket Knight Adventures. Shadowrun. Phantasy Star series. Castle of Illusion and World of Illusion. Might and Magic II.
And the Genesis version of Earthworm Jim remains the definitive version for me.
This is a MiSTer FPGA in a cool shell that reads memory cards and uses original controllers, but they’re also adding a disc drive add-on that rips your games. I ordered one with the disc drive.
That’s also not what Commando for the NES looks like. This looks closer to the arcade version of Ikari Warriors.
Oh great, if the IPS file is available that makes it much easier.
Does anyone know what the commands in Unix are? It looks like the output is a regular .gbc file, and I assume each of those tools has a Unix equivalent.
Well, it’s not a long game. It’s like 6 hours. So if you’re interested, just play it and form your own opinion.
As for games, my partner does not allow gaming at all.
That seems like something that should be a discussion rather than an edict
Thank you. I read the entire article and I don’t really understand what the OP is trying to achieve with this post, which no one from that group will read, just as no one from that group has ever played a video game. They just seem like publicity-seeking busybodies with time to kill between complaints about their neighbors to their HOAs.
In particular I still don’t understand why any of this is relevant to retro games. Modern games, sure. But it doesn’t look like they’re trying to get Crash Bandicoot banned from Steam.
I don’t know what this group is and I have no idea what you’re talking about. Most of all I don’t understand why this is posted in a retro gaming community
If this were called Yaiba: Zombie Slayer 2099, no one would be talking about it now. The only thing that makes this game not immediately consigned to the ash heap of history is the name.
Jump Bug (late 1981) is the earliest. It has an entirely underwater level, and the car moves more slowly in it. It was also one of the earliest platformers, beaten only by Donkey Kong (mid 1981) and a couple others.
Super Mario Bros. (1985) introduced a significantly different mechanic for its water levels from the rest of the game, specifically swimming, and it was about a bajillion times more popular than Jump Bug. But it wasn’t the first.
Yeah. You can use Dosbox for most things, and Wine will handle some things, but if you want to play Windows titles and emulate specific configurations and 3D cards, etc., you should look into one of these.
