That I am unsure of. I just wasn't very good at not getting hit, so I'd get past that part and have like under 50% HP. Right after that you get a homing missile weapon, but you almost immediately get swarmed by a huge number of small fighters that come in waves. I kept getting hounded and beaten... so I honestly never made it past that stage. I got rid of the VR a little after that. (Unrelated to my defeat in this game. lol)

Got a whole selection of freebies here. Free for cost of shipping of course~ There is... -Star Wars Battlefront 2 (PS2) -Star Wars Starfighter (PS2) -Star Wars Jedi Starfighter (PS2) -X3 Reunion (PC) -Story War* -Super Story War* -Story War Deluxe* -PaRappa the Rapper (PSP) -PSP UMD drive (Working status unknown) Done!

Man I loved this game... but the difficulty ramps up SO DANG QUICKLY! I got past the part I believe you are stuck on, but I didn't ever beat the level... It's a shame cause it's a pretty cool game overall. ANYWAYS! The only tip I can really give is that you have to time your shields well as they drain not only from damage but also from time. You can't hold them up constantly and need to rapidly change from firing your guns and missiles to holding up the shields. Although they are hard to hit with your guns, it does seem to damage them (although quite slowly). The best time to hit them is missiles when they stop, but they tend to start firing when they stop... You'll figure out a good pattern. Just keep trying! Fun fact! It just gets harder after that...

I have both the amiibo and a Switch, but I just happen to not have Shovel Knight on the Switch (IN DUE TIME!) That being said... I looked at Nintendo's entry for Shovel Knight for the Switch, and it does say it's amiibo compatible! https://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/shovel-knight-treasure-trove-switch (Have to scroll down a bit)

And it's gone! Thanks for playing.

Oh... My bad. >_< Thanks for correcting me on this! Also... Pixeljunk Monsters 2 doesn't seem like a big announcement? I know of the Pixeljunk "brand" I guess. EDIT - I apologize again. I saw the second email and glossed past the message of postponement...

So I'm unsure who all checked it this morning, but it looks like the "mystery" item was just a re-release of Saturday Morning RPG. They re-released PS4 and PSVita, but they also added a Switch version. Not as big of announcement as I thought it'd be? Honestly, by the time I checked, they seemed to already be sold out of the PS4 and PSVita versions. :/

TL;DR - Just format the system and accept the digital loss. I mean Tanooki basically hit the nail on the head here. I think it's technically a breach of agreement to sell your account in any manner. Best case scenario is changing all the information on it, but if anything ever happened, those downloaded titles are basically gone. I would just sell the plain system unless you're selling to a really close friend or something you see often enough it's not an ordeal. Anybody beyond that and you might as well do a full system wipe. 3DS might be hard to get much money for since there's so many of them out now, but the WiiU could have value as they aren't produced anymore. In great condition plus some physical titles, might have something there. (IMO obviously)

I don't follow their Twitter, but I'm going to assume/hope there's a hint SOMEWHERE, but I only get the emails from them. I keep following them in hopes that they'll have a release I actually want... Lemme see if I can scrounge anything up. EDIT - Well I checked their Facebook and Twitter... Nothing there. I guess since it's tomorrow will just have to look it up. Probably send their usual email day of and reveal what it is.

This is one of those "If I knew then what I know now" scenarios. It's crazy to see some of these titles for as cheap as they were! I tried looking for some of the big dollar titles that I know of, but one that stood out to me was Metal Storm for the NES. It said $5 in that book... I think it goes for like $100 now average. Glad I've accepted emulation into my life. Thanks for the cool share!

Okay now they have a "mystery" game that won't be revealed until it goes on sale this Friday/tomorrow... Also good lord I think they're releasing 2-3 titles every week now. Congrats to the high rollers who can consistently buy and keep up with their massive release schedule.

I like these... if they are worthwhile. It's also worth investing the extra if you really like/love/enjoy the game as a way to support a company for doing a great job. Honestly, I remember when you used to get the steelbook / limited edition as a freebie for just preordering rather than regular ordering. Steelbooks are one of my favorite bonuses, but nobody really does steelbooks anymore. (Or at least fewer releases) It's either that or they do it but it's like $10-20 extra just to get that. Screw dat nonsense! The last one I got that did this was Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch. You got the regular plastic case and a bitchin steelbook as well. It's pretty nice looking! The original cover is classier though...

I'm not disagree with that line of thought though. I love Mega Man X! It's one of my favorite Mega Man games, one of my favorite SNES games, and one of my all-time favorite games. I just... can't justify $100 for a fancy boxed version that could probably be $80 or less.

Seriously. Also this ^^^^

Most of today's collector's editions are garbage, so I'm thankfully not one of those people. The only time I could/would justify this is a metal case (generally only $20 more and only $80 before tax) or if the collector's edition is reaaaally worth it (Persona 5 <3). I can't see justifying $100 for a repro when you can buy the original game complete in box for the same price or slightly more. My thoughts exactly!

Welp.... iam8bit has another round of high dollar repros from Capcom! This time we're getting Mega Man 2 in a stylish light blue/dark blue cart (your color is random), and a rather plain-looking Mega Man X in white or blue... (also random). Links below Mega Man 2 Mega Man X They are 30th Anniversary carts. They look nice enough, but gorram it's $100 each. >_< ON THE PLUS SIDE! There isn't a warning about catching fire this time

I've used the following adapter below with no real issues. Amazon Link - Trenro Dual Adapter It's relatively cheap and works well enough. I think I had to install a driver with a disc, but it has worked nearly perfectly.

Someone already shared this on the Game Deals post, but I think it's worth posting here as well! Humble Bundle - Capcom & Sega PlayStation Some good Sega and Capcom titles! Even the "coupons" aside, you get like 10 games (mostly PS4 and PS3 with a few Vita) for around $12 currently. It's a good deal if you don't own any of the titles! (I own enough that it's kinda irrelevant for me. lol)

I have the Slim Model PS3 as well, but it might be a later unit (320 GB model). I tested out multiple games and didn't run into any issues. Final Fantasy VIII and Final Fantasy IX not only worked but worked with saves I had of the digital versions! Even prompted me to change disc... and that worked. I tested out and it started a new game on FFVIII as well. I tried out a couple random games from there, and everything seemed to work for me. I know there are a couple PS1 titles that don't work right, but I can't seem to find a reliable list of them. The only other thing I can think of... Is your discs damaged in any way? Do you have a regular PS1 or PS2 to test them on? Among the posts on "PS1 titles that don't work", I found one person who randomly mentioned FFVIII, but that didn't seem to be followed up or commented on either. It's always possible the different models handle the PS1 games differently, but I thought all the PS3s used software emulation for PS1 titles and only differed on early PS2 emulation (IE was hardware then moved to software than nothing).

Bought a laptop from guitarmas. Shipped fairly and quickly. Was very quick to respond and the item was fully working as described. Would buy from again!

I mean... Who doesn't find their BIOS online? I think the only system I ever dumped my own BIOS for was the Wii, but that's because it required little effort and could be done with an (easily) softmodded Wii and an SD card. PCSX2 is great for more than just PS2 emulation though. If you set it up right, you can play PS2 titles upscaled nicely to look (nearly) HD. It's also nice to be able to play some of the more expensive games or rip your own games to keep them from the wear and tear / make backups. I think it's crazy how far PS2 emulation actually is when N64 emulation is still wonky as all get out. My main computer can emulate them pretty well, and I liked the results... Just couldn't figure the best way to hook up a PS2 controller as using a 360/XB1 controller just feel weird to use for it. (Yeah I have PS3/PS4 controllers, but don't bluetooth built-in or a decent adapter.)

Pre-order is up on Gamestop! I know most of you don't like GameStop, but I'm going to link all three versions anyways~ PlayStation 4 Nintendo Switch Xbox One Unsure about other placings having it up...but they're doing this kinda weirdly shortly, so I'm jumping on it now to be safe. I'd assume everybody, but maybe they're keeping the physical copies on a limited release?

Sending PM.

Been playing Binding of Issac a bit... Man I suck at it. -_- Also trying to get more into Nier Automata. It's a great game, and I picked it up some time ago. Just kinda got disconnected from it? Played it more last night, and it is such a great game. I hate that my interest is waning for various (not related to the game) reasons as the game is pretty fantastic.

Honestly that's probably going to be the real problem unlike everything I mentioned above... The titles. There's a nearly infinite number of titles available for them to make a physical copy of, but outside of the hardcore people who are buying all of them just to have them... who are these aimed at? They're going to slowly encroach into a territory of physical copies of games that nobody really wants. Like you said, there's only so many indie games (pretty pixel metroidvanias compose like 40% of these) that your average gamer would want. Half the time I haven't heard of the title, and I look into it and find something kinda meh looking. Granted that's not their fault as they're just going for whatever they can get to publish out. Hopefully they can get around to more of the AA titles (not a mistype) that deserve physical copies!
