Nail Rat posted:Megaman 3 was the best on the NES though. Protoman was like the same type of moment of when Scrappy Doo was added to Scooby Doo. Hated the loving guy as soon as he appeared in screen.

univbee posted:It's not uncommon for these to be baked into the code somehow, or otherwise required for the game to work right. Remember the games are all designed to work on a very specific, fixed type of hardware, and things can get very broken very quickly if you overclock or otherwise circumvent the normal game's operations. Like, the "slowdown" could also be the time when something important needs to be loaded, and speeding things up could mean you reach a specific point before something important is loaded. Which could mean, for example, no level boss gets loaded, and your game softlocks. This is really true. A good example would be details of the Sega Saturn. Everyone should go watch that 30 min video of the dude that broke the Sega Saturn drm and discovered how everything about it was like a controlled explosion. Processes could slightly run out of sync but if it went too far it would poo poo the bed. The data delivery was from a cd and the system needed to handle that constant flow of information with no lag constantly. Emulation is sort of in an odd place because they can now, for example, could deliver the data much faster but they can't because the system was built only for cds speeds, not ssd speeds. https://youtu.be/jOyfZex7B3E Really fascinating stuff. Apparently this guy did this because the audio processing is really insane and you can direct pure digital audio directly from the cart to the audio processors without going through any other bus. Then he showed a program where you can send in audio, send it through a filter to another channel and then do things like add delay, phase it out, and loop it back around.
