My daughter loves it too. Which ones have you got? She just got the vehicle one, so we have them all now. She loves to build stuff, like Lego and this keeps her busy for hours.

That's a fun game.

I built a racing cockpit with full "top of the line at the time" Force Feedback Wheel/pedal/shifter setup for sim racing, and Interstate '76 got more play time than any racing sim on the market. That game was a blast!

It's one of my favourite games of all time. Still haven't tried I'82 though.

I wish you and your Father the Best man! Sending Good Vibes!!

life is short;

appreciate it

This has made me appreciate time with my own son all the more.

Battle Squadron FTW

Cool World for SNES! (I just always dug the music

He died in a Fitting Room?

One of the reasons I broke down and got one.

They really shouldn't release this unless it's perfect though...(Otherwise) The Nintendo stuff being Better is something they'll never live down.

It makes it to market in 6 days. I don't think they can change anything...

Ugh. Awful. "Moving onto the PAL titles, the situation worsens. Tekken 3 does indeed run at 83.3 per cent of its intended speed, but more than that is the fact that a 50Hz gameplay is dropped into the Classic's 60Hz output, giving obvious judder. Looking at raw video captures, every sixth frame is a duplicate - there isn't even the rudimentary frame-blending used in PAL PS2 Classics running on PlayStation 4. In fact, Tekken 3 also includes regular 50ms frame-time spikes - two drop...

I am with Jin, just now really REALLY realizing how good some SNES games are. Battletoads vs Double Dragon and Pirates of Dark Water are recent discoveries I'm really enjoying.

I had an NES, then SNES and Genesis! I suppose one could argue what I really missed out on was Turbografx...Though I had a couple of friends with them. Nowadays I have them all! Don't forget the Turbografx though, they're Great too!!

Nobody had enough time and money to play everything back then.

Now with retro compilations and emulation, it's only a matter of not having enough time.

Especially for the time sink RPGs!

Been playing it on Genesis/MD. Graphics are excellent and music is quite good as well.

I may have to try that one!

It's extremely good! One of the most OMG Genesis games at every turn.

Reminds me: My local classic gaming/comic shop has a boxed set of the three "How to win at Nintendo Games" books for like $10. Should grab it for old times' sake.

Heh, I remember those pulpy books by Jeff Rovin. They're not great, but hey, boxed set!

That was me. Ironic indeed.

I remember when Sega's Outrun was king in the late 80's. My little sister loved Pole Position.

Check out Final Freeway as well.

Outrun 2006 coast 2 coast is definitely the best psp,xbox and ps2 racer, I don't like sims

So long Space Cowboy!

My hair is turning Space Grey.

Space pants!

lololololol copters, rofl rofl rofl, white suits arrive.. they're coming to take you away ha ha hee hee ho ho to the nice padded cell..

What scholarship is this for?

@GoldLeader: Then let me help you in your research: F*ck Off!

Some game will flicker if there's more than 64 sprites like Capcom games.

Meh. The flicker is part of the NES experience so I'd rather leave it in. It never bothers me much.

The non-limited edition has sold consistently at one price, so I said a buy it now of double that and I'll see what happens.

The market will decide what it's worth. Sometimes it's surprising, often in a good way.

Well, the market has decided it's worth $79.99 with 9 days to go, so it's looking good.

Depending on the work involved, be prepared to bring it back. Perhaps several times.

And if anyone involved in the repair process thinks that pulling codes related to a check engine light can tell them everything they need to know in order to fix the problem... Run, do not walk, away.

The weird thing about most auto repair places is that they are like GP doctors. They start with the most common cause of an ailment and work their way down, charging you for each repair whether it is the actual cause or not. If what they do does not fix anything, will they still charge you for it?

It’s a brake problem. Stuck caliper. I figured it out myself and the instructor verified it. They’re charging $50 + parts at cost. If it was something like a transmission rebuild, I would definitely take it to a professional shop.

SNES was the first one I played, and definitely benefits from the added features. 2K is nice too, but the GBA port seems kind of buggy.

Wasn't SimAnt the "Buggy" one? ... Hehaa I crack myself up over here

I always enjoyed Sim City 3000. When Sim City 4 came out, it seemed like no computer at the time could competently run it. I had a pretty high-end gaming machine at the time, and it struggled with the game. So I went back to playing 3000. My favorite will always be the original, though.

Damn, I've just recovered my old maps from storage and wanted to jump back in - but now my saves are gone :/ I love these games so much though I don't mind starting again from the beginning....

Congrats!

May switch to the Amiga version for Curse of the Azure Bonds. Probably can't bring my characters over, but since they lose their equipment at the start, demihumans will hit the level cap already, and I couldn't make a Paladin or Ranger for PoR... No huge loss.

Are you playing your own copy, or through gog.com?

Gog copy via dosbox. On a Mac so no gold box companion.

I have a boxed copy, but I don't even remember what platform the disks are for (I bought it for collector's sake.)

Vizio D50u-D1. It's discontinued, I bought it a year or two ago refurbed from Amazon on the cheap specifically for the input lag (I used to play a lot of Rock Band & Street Fighter.)

What does suck is that only one of the HDMI inputs has that low of input lag. If I want more than one game system, I'll need to get an external HDMI switcher. :\

I hope this stupid issue goes away, and that all modern TVs come with low latency over all HDMI ports.
