Playing GameCube classics, but in 4K on a Mac with PlayStation controllers, just as Nintendo intended. ( lemmy.world )
My son still needs to figure out how to drive straight lol but he’s rocking it at Paper Mario TTYD.
Nothing was off-limits for retro game ads ( startrek.website )
Finally finished Super Mario Land 2! ( lemmy.world )
This game came with my hand-me-down DMG I got for my birthday back in 2001. Thankfully I never made it to the final level back then, pretty sure I would've tossed the game out the window after losing 50+ lives. Looking for what I should play next, recommendations welcome :)
Poor Sega just didn't get the timing right. ( lemmy.world )
Repaired and repainted a curbside CRT to match my NES. ( lemmy.ca )
Repaired some broken solder joints, sanded out the biggest scuffs and polished most of the scratches out of the screen. Oh yeah, and the paint job.
A lot of people say this is their favorite PlayStation 1 game. ( lemmy.world )
I miss the trend of games insulting you for quitting ( lemmy.world )
Similarly, picking a difficulty option in Doom
After almost 28 years, Super Mario 64 has been beaten without using the A button ( www.eurogamer.net )
1990 - 2005 Gaming Build
I found a box of CD-Roms and floppy disks in my mum's basement and damnit, I want to play them! I could use emulators, DosBox or VMs but it's never quite the same as having the real thing, so between an eBay mobo and a box of old parts I managed to build my new gaming rig to cover 1990-2005....
Maybe not the coolest thing here but I found this in a reno were doing. ( lemmy.world )
Found my old non floppies… oh no, a Grue! ( lemm.ee )
Got the set 👍 ( lemmy.world )
It took years grabbing these as they've popped up for decent prices, just recently grabbed V to finish it off. Wish III had been released as a GBA cart.
Played and beat A Link to the Past for the first time! ( lemmy.world )
As a big Zelda hater as a kid, I skipped the series completely. I’ve been going through to experience them all in order now. I really enjoyed the first two games of the series so I expected to like this one too. What I didn’t expect is was that it really is one of the best games on the Super Nintendo if not one of the best...
"There ain't no gettin' offa this train!" ( lemmy.world )
I love how goofy this game can be
Playing Gran Turismo on my PS1 ( lemmus.org )
Just a few attention-grabbing retro game ads that would land studios in hot water today. (more in post body) ( lemmy.world )
I know they're insensitive and tacky, but I have to admit that a part of me misses when games ads were off the walls like this....
Why are younger generations embracing the retro game revival? ( www.theguardian.com )
Satisfying Game Boy Restoration ( lemmy.world )
"Do you want this old thing?" My uncle asked, pulling the old Game Boy from an end table drawer. "Your cousin didn't want it anymore so I've kept it. Your aunt and I played Tetris on it for years, but now the screen's all messed up and the buttons hardly work."...
I've been having a Burnout 3 obsession lately ( lemmy.world )
Almost got all the golds!
Authentic Link's Awakening Game Manual ( lemmy.world )
Won an original Link's Awakening Game Boy manual on a Goodwill charity auction. Had to share the nostalgia.
Lucky DS game haul form local librarys "free stuff" section ( sh.itjust.works )
