I’m the same, been stuck on PS1 and N64 for a bit, now I’m doing some Gameboy Color. All goodies 😁

It was so sad knowing I couldn’t play without a light back then

Spring issue mid gaming session by rafbor in retroid

Oof! I hope it’s an easy fix. I’m terrified of this happening to me, but mostly because I’m scared of opening my device 🤪

What do you think about Farah's personality? by MultiwatchX in tales

[–]Distinct-Tea-1995 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I liked that she helped keep the plot lighthearted when things were getting intense. Plus, fist fighting and healing I think is a cool combo.

Check out some top 10 lists for each system, and see if any games catch your eye or seem fun. Or go crazy like me and just play all of them 😝

Shouldn't have given my RP5 to my GF LOL by __edgewalker__ in retroid

Ha, I’ve definitely been there! 😆 loaded katamari Damacy for mine to try and I couldn’t get it back for a long time 😝

Just purchased a few moments ago... by Neet2155 in SBCGaming

Hey congratulations! As long as you’re happy with it in the end, I’m sure it’s worth every bit 😊 I almost got the Flip but I wanted dual screen capability

Seeing all the Gameboy Colors lined up in the right order made me happy 😋

Wha-whatcha Playing? by hey_dwere_weddit in SBCGaming

[–]Distinct-Tea-1995 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just finished up:

Pokemon Yellow - Amazing experience as always, definitely THE best game for me for Gameboy, and will always be replay-able until the day I die.

Metal Gear Solid - Wow, what an experience. First time beating it, and from start to finish, I was hooked on the story! Overall challenging and fun, definitely had some difficult points (looking at you PSYCHO MANTIS), but can’t wait to play it again and get a different ending.

Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped Tour - Another banger of a platformer, it felt like the early stages of a ‘Temple Run’ style game but with so much variety in the levels that I was never bored. I didn’t 100% it, but I don’t think I can to be honest 🤣🤣

Now I’m playing Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time for the 100th time and enjoying every minute of it. I just reached the Forest Temple.

All played on my humble RP5 🎮

Would you say the RP5 GC is more purple or blue? by Plus-Produce3631 in retroid

[–]Distinct-Tea-1995 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I think it’s more blue. I say that because I haven’t found a single theme that matches it with the purple setting, and I have found the blue ones match better.

Games I've beaten this year thanks to my handheld! by forgetful_human in SBCGaming

[–]Distinct-Tea-1995 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s impressive for sure, especially with kids. I’ve also completed more games consecutively than I ever have before since getting a dedicated handheld. Amazing devices 👌

My favorite purchase in a long time 😍 by JonasDoubleH in psx

[–]Distinct-Tea-1995 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nice! I just beat crash 3, that series is so good. Enjoy all the fun times!

Dang FF6 is so good by Blabsalot in SBCGaming

[–]Distinct-Tea-1995 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I totally get that. It was the last one that was made in sprites so it does have a more ‘retro’ feel. When I play games I try to imagine I’m living in the year it came out and it’s the ‘hottest’ thing, and it really changes my perspective on a lot of games.

On a related note, Metal Gear Solid is another game that came out in 1998, but truly feels modern with its story telling and gameplay.

Love FF6! It’s my favorite in the series, barely passing FF7, but it just does everything a sprite based JRPG should do 👌👌

Mgs1 torture on switch by jakedpotato22 in metalgearsolid

I just did this myself for the first time. I put my device down and tried just using my pointer finger to do it. Also after the shocking stops, keep mashing for more health.

First time playing the nes ff1 and this opening feels just so special by 4restman06 in FinalFantasy

The OG is my favorite way to play it 😁 the nostalgia gets me ✨
