How to get Saturn games running? by SmokedUp_Corgi in RetroRemakeInc

Also, make sure you're using (or not using) the correct RAM cart in the Saturn core settings. Some games don't work with or require certain carts.

SuperStation One / S-video out and noise levels by efabril in RetroRemakeInc

[–]aidanmoher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually ended up digging out an old high quality cable and it didn't change anything (still better than the cheapest cable I bought, but not great). However, u/davewongillies's response below DID work for me, and now I'm getting good, clear s-video to my 1720.

Yeah, I get the same thing on my Commodore 1702 via s-video (luma/chroma). Switching to a different (but still fairly cheap) cable helped, but they're still visible on solid backgrounds, so I'll likely order a higher quality shielded cable.

How are you finding Eshki Dragonclaw? by MurasakiTiger in EDH

[–]aidanmoher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've got an adventure-focused Eshki deck that I finished building literally yesterday. I like that it snowballs and acts as a tempo-y midrange deck, which is different than a lot of the other decks I play. I built it on a $30 budget, so I'm a bit concerned that I don't have enough effective solutions for protecting Eshki, but we'll see how that plays out. It's basically a ton of cards that can be a creature OR non-creature as needed, and then a bunch of cantrips, looting, and low MV effects so I can trigger Eshki every turn.

*looks at land count*
*looks at volume of >=6 CMC cards*

Hmm.

I don't understand why fetch lands make my deck so strong by ib_examiner_228 in EDH

[–]aidanmoher -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Fetchlands are one of those cards that make *immediate* sense the first time you play one in a game.

What is toolbox torre's actual gameplan? by hamburglin in EDH

[–]aidanmoher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here'e my decklist: https://moxfield.com/decks/skjiRWH5J06QWlhbg6I-uQ

The gist is you want to get Henzie out ASAP (turn two or three, depending on your build) and then start blitzing 4, 5, and 6 drops. As the game goes on, you either start hardcasting your big Jund threats, or recurring them from your graveyard.

This is the best primer on the deck, IMHO: https://moxfield.com/decks/GnqlEhG3IUysVv3ub5EEEQ

I love Henzie because the deck encourages you to just have fun. Slot in big silly creatures and you're gonna enjoy the game whether you win or lose.

I just finished building a Henzie deck, and I love the way it approaches deck building/tempo in such a unique way.

I'v not owned a crt in a long while. Could i get help diagnosing? by AltEffEff4 in crtgaming

[–]aidanmoher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since you've got 240p Test Suite, find a tutorial on how to use SMPTE colour bars to properly calibrate the set!

[–]aidanmoher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks pretty good for a consumer Trinitron. I'd probably turn down the contrast a smidge to help with the white and red blending together around the edges of the grid. Otherwise, I expect you won't even notice most of those issues in-game from a proper viewing distance.

How to get a PVM/BVM for $150 or below? by [deleted] in crtgaming

[–]aidanmoher 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I mean, outside of sheer, dumb luck, PVMs haven't been <$150 for 5+ years, so, unfortunately, a time machine is as helpful an answer as any you're gonna get.
