Loved Alley Cat on my moms work IBM PC in very early 90s. It didn’t age well but I load it up on archive.org sometimes and play a couple of rounds because it’s one of the first games played in my life together with Barbarian and Digger. Maybe if I had Amiga I’d know more of this guy. Bittersweet ending to that story.

You’ll find high quality captures of longplay of those old NGage games. There are only a couple dozen currently but I believe they want to archive all games this way - obviously that consumes a lot of time.

:O ?!

I need to see this thing!

They’re not inherently bad. You could say modern style Mario games have achievements because some things are optional and super hard.

You’re really boring. I’m going to block you and ban you from my single person community that you stalk as well.

You don’t even need to go that far to see this technology in action. In the Eastern Europe we got microcomputers pretty late but that also meant our journey through the technological advancements from 1990 to 2010 started with a trickle of obsolete western stuff but then became a wild rollercoaster ride. At close to 40 I remember games being transmitted on the scout radio. You could also get games from magazines which simply printed source code.

Nie mam pojęcia czemu my mielibyśmy to wiedzieć. Może zapytaj tych Japończyków?

Was he serious when he said that Symphony of the Night was „a fun 5-hour experience”? Can’t read if that’s a troll or did he genuinely go blind and miss the hints? :)

This one looks perfect for me because there’s no gadget news (which I grew bored of). I’m going to post there but I think it’s best that there’s a separate more gadget’y community too.

It’s not mine, I’m just a human firehose of posts.

Uplifting news seems to be doing ok but I’m still worried about removing the training wheels. I’ll keep on posting there until it gets more crowded because we really need all the good news we can take.

This is just me providing input as a user that posts things because I like to post things and I do it for myself. I already did 2 years of community service when modding a national subreddit which led to crashing and burning so I’m not taking any responsibility for anything anymore :p

If he wants to run things like that then that’s fine, I encountered things that are showstoppers to me before I even got to that point in my evaluation. I imagine some time in the future instances like that will have more point than today but they’ll also have to provide something extra on top of regular Lemmy experience.

Lemm.ee now has a large user base and hosts some big entertainment communities so my gut tells me it’s already getting too big and we need to diversify before it grows into another Lemmy.world. Ideally the problem is addressed before that actually happens ;)

This is a very good initiative that I want to see succeed! My immediate feedback is that I avoid instances and communities without clearly defined rules so that’s something to consider.

I would also prefer to avoid a situation where we had shows & movies dedicated instance that turned out to be too much for the admin and went poof and so I need to know I can put my trust in a new dedicated instance. I understand it’s a bit of a chicken & egg problem but we need things to be stable during migration waves.

The !hardware situation is not great when considering political leaning of instances and user base and the fact that both will avoid each other.

Personally I avoid both .ml (tankies) and .world (performance issues, libs). I don’t think hardware is that much of a niche so maybe it’d make sense to start over on a medium sized and neutral instance? Maybe not lemm.ee because that one runs at risk of becoming like .world. I’ll move over wherever.

DSi costs half of what Vita does and runs GBA games natively. What is the benefit of going with Sony for this purpose?

But if you won’t quantify value of laughter then how will you know how much to charge for it?

a very sad /s

If it’s anything like Analogue Pocket then the contact points will need to be in pristine condition. Blowing on them might not do the trick but isopropyl swab should.

I didn’t mean Nebula would be the answer but many Nebulas that would do better or worse based on their own decisions rather than everyone being beholden to a single corporate overlord.
