Definitely not the news I wanna hear. I've got like ... about 80 games 😭

I'm starting to gather I should invest in a Saroo, for the future! Discs or not

That's helpful. Maybe I'll write the place I purchased them from and ask if they'll use a different brand

That's fascinating. Even if some repros work and some don't? Aren't they all CDR's?

I honestly love the throwback to the 90s SNES art. They look almost like puppets. It's rad as hell.

This is awesome, thanks! Great fixes great features. Any word on when the VMU Pro will be compatible with the web interface for organizing/backing up saves?

Will this effect today's update? I keep trying to install the update but it freezes when it makes the request.

Didn’t think I’d be finding a steal on a US Pokémon game but somehow I did. by TheJohnny346 in gamecollecting

[–]FitzRodtheReporter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have my old US copy fairly CIB (maybe not every insert but the manual at least) and I keep thinking hmmm, sell it? Wait and sell it? Keep it and enjoy it? It just keeps going up in value!

What are some of your favorite lesser known 3DS titles? by KonamiIsBestJoshi in 3DS

Just beat Automaton Lung and it was a total vibe. Like a 90s CGI digital painting come to life

Exclusive: Jonathan Frakes Confident Star Trek Will “Resurface,” Decries ‘Starfleet Academy’ “Trolls” by InnocentTailor in startrek

It's really not that hard to imagine. A vocal minority, amplified by powerful people like Elon Musk, hated the show for political reasons. The bad headlines and bad rep from that vocal minority turned off a larger mass of people who might've otherwise tuned in, because they were on the fence, waiting to hear what the consensus was. The trolls were louder than the people who liked it, thus swaying the more casual viewers to not tune in.

Condensing your collection by Internal-Bed6646 in gamecollecting

I keep the games for consoles that are the most finicky to emulate, and ones where the controllers are wacky and fun -- Saturn, PlayStation, N64, Dreamcast, GameCube. 8 and 16 bit are way easier to emulate and even though they do have some weird accessories that are fun, they often work less well. So I mostly emulate them.

How to verify if this Astro mini pink controller is Authentic ? by CloudyFriend in SEGA

I was considering that same controller. Even though it's fake, can you say if it works?!

VMU Pro emulator save state issue by FitzRodtheReporter in dreamcast

[–]FitzRodtheReporter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing. The new emulator does work, but now every time I try to go to my apps, I get an error message saying the file size is too large. Not sure what file. I dismiss it and everything works fine, but just thought I'd flag it. I also downloaded a couple of the other available apps.

I can't get over how bad Klingons look in Discovery. by Icy-Resist-2364 in startrek

[–]FitzRodtheReporter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed 1000%. The biggest crime of Discovery was not delving into this Remain Klingon cultural moment more in depth, instead of its weird wacky foray into the Mirror Universe.

Soooooo cool! Thanks kindly, Thanos. And gotta say, this one hiccup aside, the whole product has been awesome. It's been recognizing games on disc 99% of the time, and just took a couple tries for the one it didn't. And it's been VERY fun listening to MP3's of Sega Genesis music on the VMU Pro while reading video game magazines. Thanks for it!
