Atari announces Yars Rising reboot from Shantae creator WayForward
Razzie.P replied to PowerDubs's topic in Atari General
wow... so WayForward -- we have this game made that's pretty cool. Not sure what to do with it, though. Atari -- can you stick Yars in the title somewhere? WayForward -- Done! Atari -- "We're pleased to announce a new game based on the beloved classic "Yars' Revenge" Oh well, it's WayForward so I'm still confident it'll be a cool game. -
Atari announces Yars Rising reboot from Shantae creator WayForward
Razzie.P replied to PowerDubs's topic in Atari General
WayForward is one of those developers that I get excited about with pretty much every product announced. Gonna be interesting to see how they work in "Yars." -
Chocolate Peanut Butter is my favorite, followed by Vanilla. Cookies n Cream SHOULD be top dawg, but it just tastes a bit off.
-
I forgot about this one. Did it sell a LOT? A quick glance on google seems to show it was pretty well received.

Who here thinks the Atari 400 mini was a good idea ?
Razzie.P replied to JPF997's topic in THE400 Mini
I think it's a good idea, but sadly the poor execution of it just hurts the image of retro games as a whole. I would love to see older consoles being remade and performing 100% like they should. But not many of these mini gadgets do that. People who are newly introduced to older games though these things often come away with a "how the hell did you play this garbage" first impression and move on. -
Yes, current script best of my knowledge I'd have to revisit and check for sure, but 3 that come to mind immediately were Aliens, Blade Master, and Bosconian
-
I used the "update all" script today and now a lot of Arcade games give "missing rom" errors. Even some that worked before. It gonna be like Mame and break things with every update, or something I'm missing (besides those roms )? I haven't done any troubleshooting yet. I'll get to that later when I have time, but figured I'd come here to bitch n' moan about it first.

Lame. I would have joined if it was for Xevious - or maybe if it was one of those weird sex cults, those look fun - but no for Galaxian

Yep, people should. You get the Amico Home games? If so, your thoughts on them? -

Funny thing, well to me at least, is a while back he was saying that the reason he replies is because y'all troll him/tag him into these. But there it is, no trolling, no @ to him, no quoting him, just plain ol’ volunteering to rush in and meSplain it. -
I haven’t. I had a similar thought a while back – well, wasn’t selling anything but thought about grading and sealing some of my unopened games for future purposes – but after researching WATA, it seemed pointless. Pretty well documented, really… I mean, they’ve been known to grade and pass off bootlegs as the real deal for example, so I have 0 faith and respect for WATA grading after researching. Now, if you’re selling them and have no moral qualms about it, it could be worth it to you if you’d like to use the grading to sucker some extra $$$ out of some poor sap who doesn’t know that it’s a scam and still puts value on it.

Thanks. That convinced me to go get one and give it a shot. And then I got all the rest while I was at it because, well... you know how it goes. 😁

Nah, his "one thread" is this one...

Assuming you're familiar with SNAC usage -- if I have SNAC for "real" controllers, does it save the info after initial setup to allow easy switching, or any issues with switching from NES to Genesis to SNES to PS1, etc? For example, if I use a real NES controller with the NES core, then unplug that and plug in a Genesis controller for Genesis, then later switch to SNES controller for SNES, will it seamlessly know and use my settings, or do I need to config anything between switches. ... hope all that made sense. 😁

Well, you know how so many stories have these characters who gain too much knowledge/insight/wisdom and it drives them mad? Kind of the same thing here... all those billions of years (give or take a few) of experience they were bragging about was more than one mortal team can handle, so it drove them incompetent. -
That really sums up the part that makes me sad with this sort of thing. I've seen many cases where new users would be introduced to these games via lackluster gadgets like these, and come away with the impression that "these old games suck. I let them play the same games on the real thing, and they have a blast with the same games. I know at least one has said that they got it "virtually free" (whatever that means) and they were afraid if they were truly honest about it, they won't get any more loot in the future. Not gonna name drop, because that'd be a douche move, but I imagine they're not alone in that way of thinking.
-
Funny thing about the PS1 classic, though, since it's in the list as the worst of the bunch 😁 It stunk straight out the box, no doubt about that, but I grabbed that thing super cheap at some point, and thanks to hacks n' such, it's a great little gadget now! I'm hope we'll see a similar treatment with 400 mini at some point.
-
I gave it a "5 - It's mediocre" I returned it already, but may repurchase at some point in the future after some fixes, hacks, and a major price drop or sale (which I'm sure will happen) I have a BUNCH of mini console type of things here, and it's not the worst of the bunch, not among the good ones either. Joystick issues aside (others have covered that pretty well) it just makes all the games feel "less" than what they are and not fun for me. From my testing, for example, I can boot up a game on the original console or Mister and, not only does it feel right, but my performance/score is where it should be. I play the same game on this, and it's crazy how much I'd struggle to get close to that score thanks to lag and how the game just generally feels "off." If you or anyone else is having a blast with it, that's great, but it's not for me in its current state.
