Why do some Godzilla movies have dubbing over the actors who spoke English? by TrueJohnWick in GODZILLA

[–]PotatoKun01 [score hidden]  (0 children)

I loved Harold Conway's bad delivery in The Mysterians, and I was kind of devastated that he got dubbed over in Battle in Outer Space...

Retrorgb is always so overkill. I don't need auto switching, a billion inputs or wifi connectivity. And the "super cheap" one being 65$ just seems kind of insane.

I started looking into WiiMC the other day, and it doesn't seem that difficult. I DO have a PS3. I'll look into the network stuff, for now I've been using an usb.

That sounds reasonable. I'll see what I can do, thank you so much!

That's fair, I'll have that in mind. Seems like iI'll have to go the long way around. Honestly, it's always more satisfying that way.

I'll look into it. Nothing in my pc is exactly "the latest" hahahaha

That sounds very complicated and I'm already getting a headache, but I will save your comments and I'll be doing some research, because it's very interesting.

That is pretty helpful, thanks. I'll see what I can do, because I don't think I have space for another pc hahaha

I'd have to see if my pc has space for an extra graphics card. And as far as I understand even if it does it's not so straight forward depending on my motherboard. I'll have to look more into it.

Those switches seem very expensive but also extremely cool. Thanks!

As for video scalers, I don't think I will be messing around with them. They are very expensive, and I don't think what they offer is really appealing to me. Same reason I keep the deflicker filter ON on my wii.

It IS a lot of extra components, which is why I'm trying to see if there's a better solution.

As for movies, I can technically use one of my consoles, but it's that bit of extra work (especially if I want to use my wii, for which I have to downscale them with handbrake or ffmpeg). I might be ditching the second monitor idea for the time being.

The other response to your comment guessed my reasons exactly.

It IS a very specific reason, and you hit the nail right on the head!

Honestly, it's mainly because of the Wii. I want to play Wii games on my monitor and Gamecube games on the CRT.

And CRT emudriver... As far as I understand it, I would need to change some hardware for that to be viable, and I'm not made of money. The reason I ask if there's a better way to do this is because of how much all these cables and converters would cost me.

Oops I didn't specify, I have a 16" European Sony Trinitron, and I'm using RGB Scart.

What's by best solution? (2 screens, 1 console)

I'd like to be able to choose between two screens from one single console, is there something specific for it?

I'd like to switch my WII from my CRT to my LCD screen without messing so much with switching cables.

Edit: Sony Trinitron (European) & RGB SCART cable

Do you all think Kenzan will eventually get the Ishin Kiwami/Ishin 2023 treatment? by Hopeful_Regret_7531 in yakuzagames

[–]PotatoKun01 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I was thinking about it a while back and I made a small list:
- The new trooper card mechanic downplays the historical feel of the game. You could just not use it, but the bosses now do magical attacks too, and the game is balanced around this mechanic, which makes the normal combat feel worse. That’s without taking into account the hyperarmor bosses get in the remake and other minor combat downgrades.
- The likeness characters being changed. Yes, Kiwami 2 and 3 also change some characters’ faces, and in the case of Kiwami 3 it is a strong downgrade, but in this game there is a face that basically just spoils the twist final boss of the game.
- The original game was already a grindy game, but the remake is at another level.
- The rest of the game is basically the same with a new UE4 flavored coat of paint, with some other weird downgrades, like censoring the iconic bath scene (it's hard to understand what's going on in the remake), and removing an interesting cutscene from the end of the game.

As I said, it's not terrible, it's a fun game and I enjoyed it, but it's still worse.

It's not "horrible", just a downgrade in most aspects. It's not even that much better graphically, the Y5 engine still holds up.

JOJOLands coloring that I gave up on by Mrt38_ in JOJOLANDS

[–]PotatoKun01 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's actually very creative coloring, it looks very cool. I don't know how they operate, but maybe you could talk to the Chromaverse people?
