It was a Satellaview-compatible game, you could download extra maps/units on the Satellaview memory card and slot it in, or purchase a memory cart at retail that had them pre-loaded http://satellaview.wikia.com/wiki/SD_Gundam_G-Next http://satellaview.wikia.com/wiki/Unit_%26_Map_Collections

Oh neat. I didn't know that there were Satellaview compatible games. DLC is older than I realized.

Everything people complain about being a huge problem in the modern game industry has always existed in the industry in one form or another. It's just currently in a different permutation than what we're used to.

thanks to sampson I found out that someone had ordered a whole bunch of TGM1 B boards from g-front and was distributing them in the west, snagged one and a ZN-2 A board, time for some really masochistic tetris

I think most of these are japanese folks      e: if you want to see the restoration process I went through with this NAC, here's a thread I made about it on the arcade projects forums d0s fucked around with this message at 03:15 on Mar 14, 2018 |

It makes me wonder if some Japanese guy has obsessively stolen every component of a Chuck E. Cheese until he has a redemption counter in his six-tatami apartment.

New Astro City cabs look so comfortable, especially compared to garbage straight-line six-button US cabs

I set up my Analogue Super NT yesterday and I've been playing Yoshi's Island in 720p on a 1080p TV with scanlines. I've noticed some ghosting around larger foreground objects - is this something I can fix with a settings change? Other than that, this thing is incredible. The Japanese Yoshi's Island cart I got from eBay has an ancient 100% completion save on it which is pretty cool.

I remember a slight resentment back in 1990 something seeing it at Toys R Us when all I had to look forward to on Genesis was Sonic 3D Blast. I've been playing on 1080p with no scanlines. What's the advantage of 720p with scanlines than 1080p with scanlines? Is it that the pixels are stretched juuust right or something? What's the preferred scanline setting?

Is it that the pixels are stretched juuust right or something? What's the preferred scanline setting? Might be different with the super NT but on the framemeister, upscalimg to 1080 with scanlines doesn’t look right, like the lines are too thick or something. 720p looks better, but if you can’t tell a difference Then it doesn’t matter. Hey folks, I wanted to know when a few retrogaming related things would be available so I made a bot that tweets when different pages update. https://twitter.com/retroscanner/status/973744525394042880 It’s currently monitoring gdemu, phoebe, rhea, ps-io, and UltraHDMI for N64. Is there anything else I should add to the watch list that you guys would like?

Zamujasa posted:New Astro City cabs look so comfortable, especially compared to garbage straight-line six-button US cabs When I visited Japan, I was struck by how I could go into an arcade, poke around, leave, come back a few hours later and there would be the same old guy smoking and shoving coins into a mahjongg machine on his little stool. Every arcade had between one and eight of these old guys who presumably never leave.

lovely ebay packaging pt2. Bought a sealed Super Mario Bros 2 NOS PC10 game and the fucker literally shipped it wrapped with a layer and a half of bubblewrap and put a layer of packaging tape around it. It's not even in a loving box. I now own SMB2 and SMB3 sealed Playchoice 10 games and I don't even own a PC10 machine yet. Send help! It also feels dumb that I am buying things meant to be displayed that I don't want to open. It's really odd that Super Mario Bros seems like one of the rarest marquees for the Playchoice 10. Anyone know anything about this? Did they include SMB with arcades and maybe you only got a marquee if you ordered a replacement SMB? You would just think it would be incredibly common.

I'd say HD Retrovision cables, but I know their stock refresh is Saturday at Noon est Thanks, I only have 2 twitter accounts that push notifications, Wario64 and one of the UltraHDMI sellers.

Kind of like the retirement communities that bus old ladies and gents to Atlantic City where they get $10 in free play and then spend their SS and retirement savings on slot machines... katkillad2 posted:lovely ebay packaging pt2.

I've been waiting on the supposed upcoming Hi-Def NES kit restock, but I've basically just been keeping an eye on Game-Tech's twitter for that. And I don't think there's been much of an update since like, December.

Booted up with a dreamshell cd and loading isos off the hard drive. Works amazingly well. I didn't come up with it, a bunch of crazy Russians did.
