Physical console design? Atari 2600. The black slots and wood grain front with the sleek angular design is still peak console styling IMO.

User interface design? Xbox 360 Blades. Hands down. Easy to navigate, easy to understand, and good potential for minimal advertising abuse.

I meant the other way around, my bad. The DMG style GameBoy carts could probably be played in the clone console this cart came with. From the appearance of another comment, it likely would have been a keyboard with cart slots big enough to accommodate genuine DMG style cartridges on it.

Cartridge for a Bootleg GameBoy. This particular game was also available for a Famiclone system. It probably can be played in a DMG GameBoy.

It isn’t bad. It can seem bad now because every AAA game is psychologically designed to give the biggest possible dopamine response to increase in-game spending. So your brain, being conditioned on such games, will think the older game is bad because it was designed to be fun but also engage your brain and make you think. Since your brain has to work for it, it subconciously thinks the tradeoff is not as good as new games.

Can people playing on an emulator play online with people connected with genuine hardware?

Might get to see more players online if that’s the case. I think the Xbox Live reimplementation works that way.

For Monster Hunter specifically, as well as other similar games like God Eater and White Knight Chronicles, the appeal is literally just big number go up from grinding. If you don’t like grinding, you probably aren’t going to enjoy these kinds of games. They can easily feel very repetitive.

Emulation is 100% legal, at least in the USA. Do you mean downloading a copy of such a game from the internet? Because I would agree.

It doesn’t have to work that way. It works that way because they have more money, not because it is good for humanity.

If a company is going to argue that this would harm potential future re-releases of their games, they should be forced to rerelease those games in less than a years time. Otherwise it can be understood they have no interest in bringing those games back to market.

Allow libraries to do this for games that have no re-release, and have them remove the game from emulation options if it does get a re-release. Simple solution.

SGI only made the RCP, Reality CoProcessor.

NEC (who sold the PC Engine, PC-FX consoles and the PC-98XX series home computers at the time) licensed the MIPS R4200 CPU designs from MTI. They then created the derivative CPU the N64 used, the MIPS VR4300i.

Incoming employment terms amendment:

You can work from home but only to answer us when we contact you. You must answer our contact and must report to the location if requested. If you can do something cheaper (for us the company) and faster (for us the company) then that is the only time you may perform a work duty at home.

It depended.

For classic consoles, if I was in the middle of a game I couldn’t save and had to do something else or sleep, I would leave the console on but the TV off. Outside of that though, I just kept it off unless I was actively playing a game on it.

Modern consoles I keep in standby mode usually. Much nicer for the console to do its updates when I am not using it so that I dont have to wait when I have some free time to play.

What do you mean, Lemmy users get feral when they see anything about AI mentioned.

Hope they get it right, but I am not holding my breath.

As a Silent Hill fan myself, just wait until you find out how much people are demanding for games like Kuon and Panzer Dragoon Saga (USA).

100% just emulate them. Used sales do not give the original developers or publishers money anyway, so they couldn’t argue about “lost sales” (stupid term BTW) anyways.

Plus, disks succumb to disk rot eventually, people are starting to see it happening with laser disks. Cartridges go bad, etc. It can be nice to have a physical copy, but only get them for ones that are affordable and need the physical as part of the experience. Steel Battalion, for example, requires the 40 button, 3 joystick, 3 footpedal controller as part of the experience.

That is what I wanted. I love tank controls, and I wish more game would utilize them.

Mobile? Really?

Anyone that survives listening to Yoko Ono sing for 3 minutes is stronger than any human that ever lived, let alone an entire week.

Unfortunately?

That would be such a massive privacy issue that I don’t think any video conferencing software would ever implement that.

FromSoftware has never made a game I didn’t enjoy. From their well known games like Dark Souls, Armored Core, and now apparently everyone on Earth knows about King’s Field, to their more niche titles like Metal Wolf Chaos, Kuon, and The Adventures of Cookie and Cream. Yes, I even liked Ninja Blade.

Except Steel Battalion for the Xbox 360 but that is entirely because Capcom mandated the Kinect be used for controls.

Also am a big fan of Konami, pre-2005. They never really had huge masterpieces aside from what Kojima and Team Silent made, but their other games were fun and varied, taking on almost an experimental position. Games like Gungage were very engaging, if a little short.
