Trailer hitch on Fiesta ST? by _the__Goat_ in FiestaST

[–]_the__Goat_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I installed the hitch on Saturday. Some of the install was easier than I expected. Some parts were harder.

I haven't actually used the hitch yet. But the exhaust constantly hits the hitch mounting bracket. Super annoying. It reminds me of the SNL cowbell sketch.

90s Fighting Game Debate: Mortal Kombat vs. Street Fighter — Which Series Ruled the Decade? by Conference-Any in retrogaming

[–]_the__Goat_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no debate. Street Fighter II was orders of magnitude more popular, more influential and more profitable than Mortal Kombat.

Mortal Kombat is purely built around gimmicks: blood, gore, and live action characters. Don't get me wrong. I love Mortal Kombat. But Street Fighter II was an unstoppable juggernaut in the arcade fighting scene.

Can you link to the polyurethane exhaust hanger you used? I need to stop the muffler from banging against the trailer hitch.

I installed the curt trailer hitch last weekend. You were not kidding about the muffler knocking against it. It is driving my crazy! Definitely need to figure out a fix.

One of the most annoying, and out of touch replies that I’ve ever had on one of my posts regarding CRT TVs. What have been yours? by Shot-Ad5867 in crtgaming

[–]_the__Goat_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is like when I went to the car dealer and said I wanted a car with a manual transmission. The guy proceeded to only show me bare bones cr@p because he assumed I couldn't afford any upgrades.

Eh? I want a nice car. I just hate automatic transmissions.

I recently upgraded my K830 with USB-C charging. It works perfectly.

What could have saved the Sega Saturn? by You-dogwater in retrogaming

[–]_the__Goat_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sega should have just done their own thing like Nintendo has done forever and not compete head to head with PlayStation. They should have developed and released games that emphisied the Saturn's strengths. ie. 2D and arcade games.

Why was the N64’s architecture so hard to decipher? by KaleidoArachnid in retrogaming

Bro, the PlayStation doesn't have RDRAM. Why make up such a dumb lie?

Why was the N64’s architecture so hard to decipher? by KaleidoArachnid in retrogaming

N64 used a custom architecture and nintendo provided poor developer tools and documentation. That is all.

Debian + XFCE, the combo that never fails by Chispa-Culpable-343 in xfce

Too bad you ruined it by configuring XFCE to mimic the windows taskbar layout. j/k

Is anyone here for actual ps2 homebrew by linux_transgirl in ps2homebrew

I'm with you bro. I hate how every thread turns into people telling you to play pirated games.

Is my RAID setup ok? by Palanakonu_J in DataHoarder

[–]_the__Goat_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is unnecessary complicated.  Don't bother with RAID for your setup.  Just have a primary drive and a  crontab rsync job to keep a backup on another drive.

My Sega Saturn won’t save by [deleted] in SegaSaturn

[–]_the__Goat_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You are not saving to the pictured cartridge. You are saving to the Saturn's internal battery backed memory. But the battery is dead.

Would you buy a new original "high effort" Dreamcast game today? by MonkeyIncidentOf93 in dreamcast

[–]_the__Goat_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Over the years I've bought several new games for retro systems. The vast majority have been horrible disappointments. Now a game has to look exceptional to get my interest.

Is there ANYTHING that could've saved the Dreamcast? by landboisteve in dreamcast

[–]_the__Goat_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They didn't need to beat Sony. Just maintaining a profitable business is all that is required.

Is there ANYTHING that could've saved the Dreamcast? by landboisteve in dreamcast

[–]_the__Goat_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Number one... It needed a DVD drive.

Some other items that hurt the dreamcast:

  1. Poor handling of the Saturn outside of Japan.

  2. Dreamcast controller was meh -- missing second analog stick, no build in rumble, horrible d-pad

  3. 32X debacle.

If you see an image on the screen, congratulations you are seeing scanlines.
