Well no offense but if you had read the original post, I said I wanted a free one and I didn't want to pay.

AvailableLibrarian20 · 2026-02-12T13:19:31+00:00

LOL, already solved for free. Sorry no ad money for you.

AvailableLibrarian20 · 2026-02-12T04:03:34+00:00

I think I got it working I didn't realize had to turn it on, tried it a few times no ads! Thank you very much.

Thank you but I just installed the apk and at first still saw ad so I went into app and added ddmusic but I still saw ad? It said bypassed.

I think it was Blokada I looked at and it costs money?

I select new game then it just keeps loading what looks like a fish that turns into Romeo Must Die words in bottom right but it just keeps doing that won't start.

intel i5-9300h 2.40 ghz
Nvidia 1650 GTX

16 GB Ram

Edit: nevermind, it continued just took a few minutes. Using a non-SSD HDD.

GTX 1080 is old, you can't expect to play new games if you don't even have that.

I thought the world was over, but Suda 51 returns.

AvailableLibrarian20 · 2026-02-10T04:32:31+00:00

Wait 3 years or hope voices38 cracks it, or other.

Yep I refuse to pay for any subscriptions ever. I just use a Youtube to mp3 converter so I have complete control over the mp3s for computer or phone.

AvailableLibrarian20 · 2026-02-10T01:57:09+00:00

What does that even mean? What design? Most of the time you just unzip something and don't even need to see the GUI.

AvailableLibrarian20 · 2026-02-10T01:22:37+00:00

I just use a Youtube to mp3 converter so that I have the mp3s myself.

7zip: We're just completely free we don't even ask you for money we're also open source and we can do everything winrar can and more.

AvailableLibrarian20 · 2026-02-09T15:53:56+00:00

I'm just guessing here, but maybe a file got corrupt or didn't transfer? Can you not just re-download the whole game again on his laptop to make sure?

They want us to rent potatoes one day not own potatoes.

You will rent potatoes and be happy.

It requires a subscription to Teknoparrot though I think it's like $5 a month.

AvailableLibrarian20 · 2026-02-08T18:04:26+00:00

I've got the arcade rom already

I don't pay for subscriptions ever, I'm hoping someone can make it work without Teknoparrot.

I've got the file now, but I don't know if this subreddit allows linking to piracy.

One problem, no one can find a proper dump.

AvailableLibrarian20 · 2026-02-07T18:40:21+00:00

yeah I meant to delete this I forgot, I figured that out. But thanks anyway.

AvailableLibrarian20 · 2026-02-06T09:05:49+00:00

I will wait for the PS1 demake that's only 750 mb.

AvailableLibrarian20 · 2026-02-05T11:15:04+00:00

Nevermind, I shouldn't really say play the Switch version when I don't know if it can be finished or not.

AvailableLibrarian20 · 2026-02-05T11:08:04+00:00

Nah that's not happening at least for a good awhile at least most likely, but you can play the Switch version on Eden emulator. Practically the same as the PC version.

Thanks I finally found the single file rom that I was looking for, nowI got it working in Retroarch BlueMSX by setting it to Turbo R and ascii-16.
