    I used to burn games with Nero, but most people used Discjuggler (not sure if that's still available for modern computers.) The main thing is to burn at low speeds...less than 12x. I don't know if burners built into modern OS's allow for speed adjustment or not. I didn't bother putting an optical drive on my new PC.
  2. Robot Tank. It had more depth, more challenge, and took the Battlezone experience further. Battlezone was still a fun game though.
  3. We all have opinions. My choice was vertical, but I was merely making the observation that shooters come in lots of flavors. Not merely cars, trucks, and SUVs.
  4. Yes. 1.7.4d Like I said, the game is playable, but in certain spots the frame rate drops...usually just for a second or two. It's not a huge issue, but I'd like it to be a lot smoother. I'm sure that in another version or two of the emulator, the game will be 100%.
  5. I have a 7700k and a 1080, and BotW still stutters and drops down to the 10-20fps range at times. The game is very playable, but the slowdowns are annoying. I've tweaked Cemu several different ways and the problem persists. Mario Kart 8 plays very smooth, as do a few other games.
  6. ...or they could call it the "Houdini."
  7. There was a double-edged situation involved in keeping arcade games relevant. Either a company invest money in new, innovative ideas, making machines (and gameplays) more expensive, or they just barely stay ahead of home consoles and offer little to entice operators to invest in new machines. Which choice offers the most profit?
  8. Back in '83-'91, there were six good-sized arcades (including two in the malls) here in the Temple/Killeen, Texas area. Then suddenly, the four outside the malls closed and the two arcades in the malls turned into claw machine havens with the occasional light gun or fighter machine. I agree with the idea that it happened because the home systems reached a point of equivalency with most arcade machines. I also think that the whole "80's vibe" died out, so arcades just weren't interesting any longer. Myself, I was much more interested in PC games in the early 90s, as were many of my friends.
  9. Is this a PS4 with hybrid emulation?
  10. Who would have known that my plans for world domination would be thwarted by a password subroutine in basic?

  13. Hybrid emulation means part pipedream, part fabrication.
  14. Do they have a Cheetos or Mountain Dew license? Or will they be generic versions?
  15. Does the Retroblox come with a Pop-Tart or Hot Pocket module? If so, I'd buy one just to have it near my gaming PC.
  16. I found the hidden car! It was behind the first NAMCO sign!
  17. Or...press the button to start a line. Hold the button for fast, release the button for slow.
  18. There's also a nude code for Pole Position 2600.
  19. Strawberry Shortcake: Musical Match-ups for the 2600. When I was 4, all we had for the 2600 was Spike's Peak and Strawberry Shortcake. I hate Spike's Peak!
