That makes ChexQuest even weirder. They invented a dude wearing a Chex as armor who pretended to be Doomguy. That game is weird.

Tyson Tomko posted:This is several days old, but definitely get in touch with RHS. When I originally ordered my R4DS a year or so back I got the dreaded post office empty envelope "we lost this but can't do anything about it, sorry bro" paper. I shot them an email, never got a response, but a couple of weeks later received another one from RHS. I already did. Their response was basically "lol you didn't insure, piss up a rope" and I had already said gently caress it and just ordered another one and paid an extra ten bucks for FedEx because my post office can blow me. After I pointed out that a random dude on eBay provides better customer support (the guy I ordered the SP from has said that if my thing doesn't turn up soon, since the tracking hasn't updated in over a week, he'll send me another one [which I also told him I would pony up for non-USPS shipping because again gently caress my post office]) they told me that had a one-time retroactive insurance thing where they'd resend it if I gave them more money. I will never order from RHS again if at all possible, much like I will never trust a package to the USPS as long as I'm living in this apartment.

fatpat268 posted:If your post office is as bad as you claim, then you need to make an official complaint about it. It's one thing to have a damaged package once in a blue moon because poo poo happens (or people don't know how to pack), but if you're losing or receiving damaged packages on a regular basis, make a complaint about it. This is the first one that I know my local post office has lost, the SP is just somewhere in a black hole between Flushing and Charlotte, but I've had other issues with my post office. For example, not delivering my mail for three weeks and causing my credit cards to be put on hold because my bank statement was marked undeliverable, all because they decided that nobody was living at the address where mail was being picked up every day for three months. They're also a bunch of rude motherfuckers, as detailed in my rantings in IRC, and I refuse to deal with them any more than I absolutely have to.

d0s posted:dickeye, didn't you spend like an entire day calling them repeatedly until you got yelled at They started off being rude yelly motherfuckers and when that's your startpoint I don't feel bad about hassling you, especially since this is just the latest issue I'm having with your post office. Like the actual first person I talked to kept interrupting me and when I finally went "hey can I finish talking please" told me "no" like I had just asked her to eat a bowl of poo poo. Still haven't gotten a call back explaining why they stopped delivering my mail, by the way, and that was a month ago.

Uncle at Nintendo posted:There is no need to patch FFIV to play the GBA port. Unless you meant patching the ROMs for the EZ Flash so they save properly? No, I know about that, I had a folder of patched ROMs before the cart even got here. Someone told me about needing a patch or that I needed ot get a particular region's copy of FFIV or something along those lines. I just don't remember what it is. univbee posted:Otherwise FF4 GBA has no meaningful patches to speak of, although a double-turn bug is I think partially resolved in the European version (the one with EFIGS language options). T I think this is it actually. Can I download themes for the EZF4 that aren't this stupid rear end star wars thing?

flyboi posted:It works great, if you have a list of gameboy games you want to play it's worth it. I think the only major compatibility issues is lack of RTC for Pokeymans Silver and not having 256k save support for that music mixing app that hipster musicians use. Pretty sure there's patches for the RTC for G/S/C, I know one of the people in IRC hooked me up with a whole folder of patches the other day.

I need to fix the trigger button on a GBA SP. I already have the screwdriver on the way, but assuming it's an issue with the rubber contact and not just goop, how do I fix it? Do I need a new little piece of rubber? Can I jam something in there to make it work? What do I do I am scared and bad at electronics

Phantasium posted:Yeah, but there are multiple versions of FF1, FF2 and FF4 on PSN. I don't necessarily agree with the notion that you have to play the PSP versions of 1 and 2 (FF Origins was the only non-lovely PS1 FF port in retrospect, though the PSP versions are pretty good) but you definitely want the Complete Collection version of 4. Complete Collection IV is the one on the store, so we're golden.

There's a line in his new book that (probably paraphrasing a little) goes "I nodded. Not in agreement, but just to acknowledge that I understood the reference" and I feel like that sums up Clines oeuvre fairly well Also his new book is literally a teenagers rebuttal to his parents telling him to do something useful instead of just playing games all the time

Housh posted:I just started playing Pokemon Red and it's my first Pokemon game. I was never interested in JRPGs as a kid but ever since I played and enjoyed South Park: Stick of Truth, I decided to give them a shot. I'm enjoying Pokemon Red a lot even though it's babby's first JRPG but what would you recommend I play after this? i wouldn't even recommend playing pokemon r/b as your first pokemon game, let alone jrpg, to anyone who didn't grow up playing it. they've been doing remakes of the older generations that are much better. Heart Gold/Soul Silver is the best because your pokemon follows you and the menu takes full advantge of the DS's touch screen if you're going to finish it though, just play the series in order and maybe do the remakes as you come to them for an hour or two just to marvel at how much better r/b is with the quality of life improvements up to that point
