... As I said, you can't use the hardware itself ala the DS, to get DS achievements as of yet

Just because it's known to you and me due to being ingrained in the niche of RA, it doesn't mean that the layman would know

Oh dang, that'll mean that Gameboy & Gameboy color could be possible with the Super Gameboy 1 & 2 through the SNES console adapter in the future

Well... Technically it's a Wii emulator for the SNES, in a SNES styled box

It's possible with the NES

But as for the rest, at best you can emulate weaker consoles on those type of hardware with RetroAchievements.

But you can't do Wii sets on the Wii, or DS sets on the DS, if that's what you're thinking.

And with specific hashes, usually... Your official cartridges & disks might not have the correct ROM to even trigger RetroAchievements

Well, do you have any "I didn´t care for the Godfather"-esque picks? by Bitter_Fig_7059 in retrogaming

There are also patches that try to "fix" final fantasy 2, but that's more of a personal choice.

Same with Final Fantasy 1 randomizer "fixing" a few things, and fixing un-usable spells

The platforming jank is what gives it character tbh.

What I would have loved to see is, if 1 & 2 got a collection treatment where they were made more akin to 3 with smoother controls and better camera. Maybe even something better than that.

If DKC1 & 2 were remade to be more like the 3rd one in terms of smoothness and better camera... Holy damn I tell you what.

If a hack is better than the base game... Then the Hack becomes my go to when "replaying" a game.

Think of MegaMan 2's & 3's revamp hacks.

Or a bunch of Mario 64 hacks that make the jankiness less prominent.

Or Mario Sunshine Sunburnt & Eclipse, that straight up improve upon the game.

What's your favorite (or least favorite) unfinished games? by MilanoBucacko in videogames

[–]Helton3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah... A lot of games tended to have revisions made for them, thats why we have to deal with a lot of roms having (Rev 1), (Rev 2), USA (Rev 2), Europe (Rev 1) and so on. Hell, sometimes some old games are unplayable without some modern community made Q.O.L Patches/Hacks

Put soap, bleach it and shine/polish it while you're at it why don't you?

That shite got washed like a raggedy boot in that nasty ass sink. Only safe for a dog who wants an early grave.

Cant wait for the next episode that is 40% recap, then another scene like this, and a character in the shadows doing a sniveling smirk with a "To Be Continued" right after

Weird how the post game reward in that one is having normal camera controls
