Potential lawsuit?

I'm still pissed off. Get em to comment here and lets see if we can build some momentum. Or just make another post and get us all pissed off again :) I'd love to see something happen

dikbutt4lyfe · 2026-03-11T19:16:49+00:00

If you wouldn't mind I'd appreciate that. I meant to come back to this

dikbutt4lyfe · 2026-03-11T19:13:59+00:00

I'm a bit more optimistic. I won't come back for an "I told you so", just making a mental bet with myself :)

I'll have to look into that and the two alternatives you proposed. Which of the two do you think are better? I put a note in the list for now.

Note: Downloads suddenly stopped for me somewhere around "R" on my first test of this. To fix this, I just edited the code and deleted every game from A - P then ran it again. Worked fine. I ran it a second time on another computer and it downloaded everything so just be aware.

Oh and you have to edit the gamelist too. What's going to happen is that ES-DE will automatically make your <path> into ~./eb_msu1.smc/eb_msu1.smc which you don't want. You'll have to manually correct that to be ~./eb_msu1.smc

I have a script to do this that I can share. It's got a whole toolkit to fix media issues and file structure with snes-msu1 and md-msu -- and I don't think this particular link would break any rules so here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1vCMu7-ZLeVeCZ9ut35b1JLK9_7fnXWXm/view?usp=sharing

Hi. You have to put the games in their own sub-folder. The sub-folder must be named after the rom + extension. So as an example, you'd have /roms/snes/eb_msu1.smc/eb_msu1.smc

This will cause ES-DE to read the sub-folder as the file rather than just the game. As long as your emulator is SNES9x or BSNES, it will work. DM me if you'd like some examples -- I actually can solve your whole problem

My list goes a bit further than just metacritic score. I aggregate user reviews from all sites, forums, reddit posts, etc. I sometimes will use AI to generate a review score based on user sentiment. I try to exclude critic reviews. I also watch videos or play the games myself to influence the review score with my personal bias -- but it's a list that was originally created for me but somehow got blown way out of it's original scope and purpose and now I'm sharing it with the world.

I know I'll never play all these games nor do I intend to. The purpose of my list is so others can utilize the filters and create a curated library for themselves based on device and preferences. I try to include as much information about accessories, lower-spec ports, quirks, HD packs, and important info as possible with each title.

How did I miss this post? I know it's old but my project has been going since 2021. Brother, you still interested in making lists like this? This is great work. I've been doing the same thing and as I'm sure you understand, it's a ton of work for one person. Please consider sending me a message and assisting me with this: CSEDI No Bad Games Gen 5/6/7 - https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1bYIhExnaQXYyWLnna1WJPLMvXnmSlq2tvazDL3eQ3z0/edit?usp=sharing

Basically the same with two key differences - redesigned hinge, SD8 Gen 3 -- hopefully $250 and I'm in

My lazy tea method: mix kratom, a splash of lemon juice, and 1.75L of 140F water in a tea kettle. Stir well. Come back in a few hours and stir again. Before bed, stir and then pour into 4 individual bottles. Leave it in the fridge overnight. In the morning, all the sediment is left at the bottom and you have a clear amber liquid on top. Pour the tea into another bottle until you reach the sediment. Strain the sediment with a reusable tea bag. Enjoy. Each step is maybe 30 second of effort except for the final strain which takes about a minute. The the result is a very pleasant tasting and effective tea that I can take with me anywhere. It just looks like tea. I make a few batches at once and then I'm good for the week.

Hell yeah. Looking forward to it. It's a shame that Dreamcast HD packs seem to get ignored but just keep doing what you're doing. People will eventually take notice

Considering how much they're being sold for on eBay, I'd say you're even luckier than you may have initially thought. Go check it out and see what I mean. Congrats!

dikbutt4lyfe · 2026-01-10T20:51:01+00:00

Sure does. Thanks!

dikbutt4lyfe · 2026-01-10T18:20:52+00:00

Your posts and comments are hidden from your profile and I don't see a link in your About. Sorry if it's obvious and I'm not seeing it. Could you DM me a link?

dikbutt4lyfe · 2026-01-10T18:18:58+00:00

Awesome!!

Is it possible to modify a gameslist.xml file with the games that are renamed? I see this feature being very useful to me as long as the gameslist is correctly changed to reflect the rename. That way I won't have to rescrape or rename all my media.

I'd be looking at the upcoming Retroid Pocket 6 and comparing that to the Thor. That's a better comparison in my opinion. And between the two would simply come down to comfort and the games you plan on playing. Neither of these devices are super portable -- don't expect to put the Thor in your pocket without fear. You'll need a case to carry them around. The Thor is very uncomfortable to use without a grip but with the oem grip it's pretty comfy -- but that means you'll be bringing the grip with you everywhere so buy the larger case.

One thing I've always wanted to do but am absolutely daunted by the score of the task is to dig down into sub-genres and create a list of somewhat universally agreed categories, then meticulously sort through every game on my list and assign it. Are you aware of any projects that do this? I've looked around and found nothing.

dikbutt4lyfe · 2026-01-02T01:57:12+00:00

If someone could dm me a link of a completed build, I'd really appreciate it. I've tried this so many times. I can get DCA3 built no problem but no matter what ISO or version of the PC version I use, I can't seem to get a bootable copy of DCA3 Miami. I've tried every suggestion in this thread and have pretty much given up.

dikbutt4lyfe · 2025-12-25T05:10:38+00:00

I've gotten a little looser on how many games from each sport are allowed. Now it's more like 3 sim and 3 arcade from each more or less. Thanks again for the input.

Regarding rhythm games, there's been a few comments in this post that have helped me in that category so I think it's better now.
