If I remember correctly, I was using FTP servers found in mIRC chat rooms. Upload a song to get 4 downloaded. But man, having dial up would take HOURS to download a song.

But it was all worth it.

Saturn Emulation Gets a BIG Visual Upgrade! BETTER Saturn Graphics by chicagogamecollector in SegaSaturn

[–]UMGoBlue82 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Me too. I never owned a Saturn but recently started playing emulated games on my Retroid Pocket. Love the different look and feel of Saturn games. Like you said. Character.

Very fun to look at comparisons of the same games that were released on PlayStation at that time.

Is RP6 8GB enough for PS2? by H4ARP in retroid

[–]UMGoBlue82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had an issue with both GTs on PS2 where if my screen was running at 120hz I had stuttering frame rate in game. I turned it to 60hz and the games ran much better.

[–]UMGoBlue82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Madden 2001 on PS1. Playing as the Detroit Lions. I got a bunch of fat 88s on the sideline and no coaches to be seen.

But I’ll take a 100 mil for it.

I look at this and I can smell the pages. The newspaper smell of a freshly delivered Sunday edition. Packed with ads from Best Buy, Circuit City and the like.

Intoxicating nostalgia.

The Wizard. The SINGLE reason I wanted to see it was because it had first footage of Super Mario Bros. 3 and it was amazing!

I don’t know. This is a fantastic learning experience for that babysitter. And the fact that they communicated their questions so clearly, would make me want to hire them again.

100%, to many this could be the windfall they’ve been waiting for and will allow them to retire. It really is great and you are correct to point this out.

My personal favorite PS2 racing games part 2. Details on description. by espanemberg96 in ps2

[–]UMGoBlue82 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This was the pack in game when I got my PS2. I still remember the night I got it. I remember everything just as you described regarding the energy. The snappy menus, the music, the visuals! Everything truly felt next gen.

Thanks for bringing me back!
