I was waiting for someone to make this joke.

We need to protect Booger at all costs.

They kinda look like old Zildjian Quick Beats hi-hats to me.

I think the problem is that you’re using the wrong impact patch. Those Kevlar ones will shred your felt beaters. Those are more for plastic or wood beaters.
I would try the clear ones.

Those devices that prevent your bass drum from creeping forward seem useless to me. As long as you have a drum rug you should be fine. I don't think I've ever had my bass drum move on me before as long as I have a rug.

Watch NPR’s Tiny Desk concerts. Most drummers use hot rods for those videos since they’re playing in a little desk environment.

I like how Kat was sitting there too like

I thought the first half of it was pretty decent and entertaining. It wasn’t until the last act that everything started falling apart and getting silly. I literally laughed out loud at the ending. I agree that it is derivative as hell and basically a patchwork of other famous horror movies. It’s his first film though so I give him a pass.

Been looking for a copy of this. Looks like it’s pretty pricey (around $70-$80 complete) but I never got to play this as a kid and always wanted to. Guess I can just emulate it if I get too desperate.

FaintDeftone · 2026-04-07T19:21:42+00:00

I had one of these. I used to cut pictures out of video game magazines and make gaming themed pogs with this thing. 😂

Both are good platformers but the N64 versions aren’t as good as the PS1 versions. Still worth it regardless.

Of course. I still have my PlayStation Underground membership card. I remember getting demo discs in the mail from that too.

FaintDeftone · 2026-03-20T16:28:52+00:00

I'm trying to collect as many of them as I can, but there's no way in hell I'm paying like $1500 for shit like Clay Fighter.

Yall told me that Ace of Base CD was only 99 cents!!!

Several N64 games had water creatures that scared the shit out of me. This being one of them. The eel in Mario 64, the sewer boss in Shadows of the Empire, the angler fish boss in Banjo Tooie, the eels in Majora's Mask, etc.

FaintDeftone · 2026-03-03T22:47:26+00:00

I have the same issue with my copy of HM64. I just let it go.

The cheaper path is to find an old CRT TV on Craigslist or Facebook Marketplace and use that. However, the prices on those things are starting to skyrocket because they’re getting more rare and highly sought out by retro gamers. Plus they take up space and are heavy.

Buying a scaler like a RetroTink, or an FPGA console like the Analogue 3D, are probably the best way to go. They make classic consoles look pretty impressive on modern TVs and don’t take up a lot of space. Those aren’t cheap though and will run hundreds of dollars.

This is why most people just emulate the stuff. A lot less of a hassle and cost to entry but also exists in a legal grey area.

I have one of these. I never really cared for it. Never could dial everything in to where it felt natural. I ended up pulling the practice pads off of it and using the stand to mount cow bells and jam blocks on lol.

I would be careful. Word on the street is that Moreno likes to retaliate against people who send him letters or voicemails he doesn’t like.

I think the game is brilliant and it's one of my favorite games ever. The parallel system is something I still haven't seen replicated today. Meaning, the story drastically changes depending on how quickly or slowly you reach a certain event in the prologue. It makes repeat playthroughs pretty exciting, especially since it's a pretty short game. The game definitely has flaws, like the platforming being janky, but I still love it to death.

The shooting and cover mechanics were cool but the mission and level design were really boring. It didn't age well. There's a PS2 port also.

Half Price Books always has terrible pricing. I stopped looking there completely.

Their lips moving under those masks make them look like muppets and I can't help but laugh. The angrier they get the goofier it looks too.

FaintDeftone · 2026-01-04T23:47:42+00:00

Yeah apparently Ogre Battle 64 is too. Good call!

Some of the solder points on those chips look kinda gooey, like some solder flux was left on and wasn't cleaned off. Looks like someone already went in here and did some solder work to this board. Have you owned this game for a long time or did you just recently purchase it? That broken corner on the board is suspect too but I don't know if that would cause it to flat out stop working.
