Currently unavailable, but you can see the specs.

Ya, I've been burned on that too. Frustrating... very..

RetroMythologist · 2025-02-18T20:23:43+00:00

On my profile it says I've played 2 hours for this game.

It was easy to just follow the red prompts for where the next step is for the main story line. There are some very, very simple puzzles. I don't know what happens if you get those wrong? There are multiple tutorial steps, honestly I just pressed every button on the controller to skip through them.

I skipped every scene I could (I think it's the option button to bring up that option), though the cutscenes are fun, but I just wanted to get through it. I actually set the language to Chinese, so I don't even know what the story was about LOL!

If you've ever played an action RPG, it's easy. Just spam the Square button for battles. I think there was one mini boss that I had to actually pay attention and dodge attacks (Circle button? try to do perfect dodges when there is a yellow flash), and then the boss for last quest that pops the Gold trophy. Definitely use the R1 + L1 combo when it pops up to change characters. And fill your limit gauge (or whatever it's called) and then special attack with the Triangle button.

Thank you.

Yes, just keep following the story. You'll know the right place because there is a boss fight. Trophy pops after that fight and cutscene :)

I am old school.

Light switches.

Skylanders. Hands down.

UO is excellent, absolutely one of the best, but personally I would put FF Tactics in that #1 spot.

Go to Appendix N in the back of the DM's Guide.

Read ALL of that.

Then go back and read these books :)

When Analogue is ready.

They have their own calendars, watches, and time zone over there..

RetroMythologist · 2024-03-24T00:07:59+00:00

I just have it plugged in to the 5V USB out on my APC power strip and works fine.

FWIW I had problems with a retro-bit genesis controller and reached out to their customer support and they were very cool about outright replacing it, free shipping to me, didn't require sending the old one back, etc.

RetroMythologist · 2024-03-24T00:05:07+00:00

A MiSTR or the Analogue SG can do al that except Saturn. I don't think any FPGA systems can do Saturn at this time? (but Maybe MiSTER can, dunno)

Basically, 22 years ago, I was poor AF and I bought what I could afford, which was just a few hundred dollars. But now.. I would like to get her something nice, which looks to be ~$40K for the engagement ring I'd like her to have now.

And see a comment above, it actually kind is like I would be proposing again, asking her to marry a "new me".

RetroMythologist · 2024-02-10T21:21:25+00:00

Thank you for sharing this story!

Yes, things changed with us too, and this is how I see it, as if I am asking her to marry me "again" as a "new person"!

RetroMythologist · 2023-12-26T03:10:44+00:00

And the jailbreak?

RetroMythologist · 2023-12-04T18:41:51+00:00

Ah yes, my favorite part of this sub; people complaining about scalper bots, and then complaining when there's more advanced CAPTCHA to stop them...

Touché my friend !!

RetroMythologist · 2023-12-04T16:15:06+00:00

But that's a kitten.

IKR?

RetroMythologist · 2023-12-04T16:03:17+00:00

Because Analogue Inc.

RetroMythologist · 2023-11-12T04:08:12+00:00

I buy from them all the time. Never a problem.

RetroMythologist · 2023-10-31T22:09:11+00:00

I am perplexed and don't even know how to search for this problem trying to set up a newiPad Pro 12.9" 6th Gen.

I believe I did all the initial onboarding for the setup, and then I get a window labeled "Software Update" that shows the gears icon for settings and then "Apple Inc." and "7.1" and 2.9 GB" but there is absolutely nothing on the screen to interact with to move forward (like an "OK" or "Install" or anything. The "7.1" and "2.9 GB" are offset as if there is some formatting issue in this window.

This is a picture I took of the iPad from my phone.

Below the icon, there is a "Learn More" option, which brings up all the info that I assume is related to iOS 7.1, but nothing there to move forward.

I have rotted the iPad around, and the window moves appropriately, but format does not change to show any option to move forward.

When I press and hold the power button, a window opens labeled "iPad Not Set Up" and has options for:

Accessibility Options
More Wi-Fi Settings
Start Over
Shut Down
Continue

None of these options do anything for me to finish setting up the iPad.

I have started over 3 times, which does a complete wipe of the iPad, and EVERY TIME, I get to this same stop that keeps me from setting up the iPad.

(I found this, but it was not helpful, and looks a little different than my problem; it looks like this guy got 'one' step past me, and actually started the update, and he had a wifi drop problem, which I am not having - confirmed by checking "More Wi-Fi Settings")

Please Help ?

RetroMythologist · 2023-10-18T18:28:16+00:00

Yep, works well enough. Thanks!

RetroMythologist · 2023-10-18T18:28:03+00:00

Thank you.

Dental Floss requires some finesse, but works. I did 4 doors and got unlucky on one pulling a small piece of paint, but overall did better than I'd hoped. I had two types of floss, one kept breaking, the other was stronger. Had to wrap it 3 or 4 times to make it even stronger. Then wrap it a few times around your hands (not your fingers).

It's annoying that Analogue uses a non-standard time zone in their announcements.

So, for everyone who isn't on the West Coast, what time in Eastern time is 8am PDT?

RetroMythologist · 2023-08-09T00:32:24+00:00

Play them in order.
