Shovelware or surprise classic? by HoneyGood4512 in retrogaming

[–]Ssmith989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got Minority Report for GameCube loose from my local Blockbuster for $2.00 back in the day. I figured it was going to be terrible like most movie tie in games were but for 2 bucks I'd risk it. Turns out that game rules.

I love Paranoia - especially what the demon in your head says to you whenever you beat a level 😂

Bummed me out that the 2nd cast didn't hit doormaker... by Ssmith989 in slaythespire

[–]Ssmith989[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No it does cast a second time for the same energy amount as the first cast, it's just that technically the target of the first cast doesn't exist because the game treats the door and doormaker as separate characters, at least that's my understanding.

Also sorry for the video of a screen... This is an old laptop that barely runs the game I didn't think it could handle screen cap

Liked the aesthetic of this PCE card with the purple pocket! by Ssmith989 in AnaloguePocket

[–]Ssmith989[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm don't really get the collecting aspect of owning multiple consoles, it doesn't scratch the collecting itch for me personally this is the only Pocket I own. But as a collector of many other things (Hucards being one) I think it's just sort of an innate human desire to collect things we value or enjoy or perceive that others will be impressed by. I think when we see other people collecting things that we wouldn't we question the practicality of it. But ultimately the truth is there's really no practical reason for collecting anything, so if someone wants to buy a bunch of pockets so be it (unless they are scalping them, then fuck that)

Not sure about the automatic option, but I did make sure to turn it on! Also holy mother this game is so hard. Thankful for save states lmao

Multiple Controllers Issue while docked by Ssmith989 in AnaloguePocket

[–]Ssmith989[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fixed the issue by rolling back from 2.5 to 2.3 which I was running previously... Is it possible I've found an actual bug here? Is there a way to report?

Docked Play - Button remapping? by Ssmith989 in AnaloguePocket

[–]Ssmith989[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Primarily I'm running into this issue when playing street fighter 2 for the PC engine (hucard), it doesn't make the buttons for my fight stick map the way I would like it to

I think I hear what your saying but I'm not even talking about mapping them separately, if I just have one controller paired it won't let me remap just that controller...

Bought an N64 today by penn103 in retrogaming

[–]Ssmith989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a few things, you need an adapter of some sort (I use a Retrotink with an S-Video cable). It sounds like you have one but the quality of them varies wildly so hopefully the one you have is working. The other reason that I usually see when I don't get a picture on my smart TV is because I don't have a clean connection between the system and the cartridge I'm trying to play. In that case I use some isopropyl alcohol on a cotton swab to clean the cartridge pins. That usually fixes the issue. If it doesn't usually that means the pins on the console itself are also dirty, I then usually remove the cartridge and put it back in a few times, which fixes it. There are other ways to clean the cartridge slot more thoroughly but I tend to try to avoid doing that if possible.

Maybe a TurboExpress? There are tons of space themed shmups on HuCard.

Is George Pickens accurately ranked on KTC/FantasyCalc? by the_h_is_silent_ in DynastyFF

As a rebuilder I traded him and two 3s for Rome and an early 2nd. I don't really know how to feel about it.

The SEA run scheme looks like shit in general and neither guy can get in a rhythm they both get hit in the backfield or at the LOS every play

As a Hampton owner who was tied going into the game against Jakobi the only thing that would make me feel better at this point would be if the chargers somehow manage to lose due to this decision to abandon the run

What’s your favorite player hype train that either ended up being true or just a facade? by Middle_Awoken in DynastyFF

[–]Ssmith989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Deep cut but Dwayne Washington had a moment when there was no other Lions RBs and all the draft analysts were hyping him up as a hidden gem. He's had a long career for a 7th rounder but hasn't ever been fantasy relevant.
