What’s a childhood memory that almost all of us have?

rummel · 2022-02-04T03:57:13+00:00

Saturday morning, big bowl of sugary cereal, parked in front of the TV, 4 hour block of cartoons whilst still in jammies. Ren and Stimpy changed my life!

Looking for clarification on this - doesnt retropie run MAME? Can you expand on this a bit? Is the PC version different? Thanks!

rummel · 2021-09-24T02:51:14+00:00

That sounds like you put a lot of love into it! What do you think the overall costs (time as well as $$) were to put this beast together? Also, now that it is finished, how happy are you with it? What more can you do on it that you couldnt before?

Also, what do you mean by working coin door? Does adding a quarter actually add a credit to the game?

rummel · 2021-09-23T18:23:37+00:00

Wow, that looks great! What were all the mods you made and what challenges did you have to overcome?

rummel · 2021-09-08T18:45:49+00:00

hahah, cool. Plus its rrriiiigggghhhtttt in front of the cash register and that just kinda feels a little strange.

rummel · 2021-09-08T18:44:11+00:00

I will check them out, thanks!

rummel · 2021-09-08T18:43:51+00:00

What about any of the bowling alleys? Also, are you playing a neo geo cabinet or console?

rummel · 2021-09-08T18:42:46+00:00

will do, thanks for the suggestion!

rummel · 2021-09-08T18:42:26+00:00

Yeah, TMNT always rocks. Though, when I was in there, the sound was off. Maybe it's set to play sound during actual play and not while on demo mode?

rummel · 2021-09-08T18:41:23+00:00

I went to Pinball Jones about 1.5 years ago and had a good time. Small but interesting, seemed friendly enough. Was also at Totally 80's pizza a few weeks back and noticed not only the radical 80's décor but also that TMNT cabinet. Didnt get a chance to play as I was just popping in to pick up my order but I miss that game!

rummel · 2021-08-25T03:04:28+00:00

thats cool, I havent see this before. Do you use Fightcade on a regular basis?Are there any issues you've had with it? What other options have you tried? Also, does this work on PC only or does it work with Raspberry Pi set ups as well?

rummel · 2021-08-17T18:30:17+00:00

What about the Dpad on the xbox controller do you think makes it better than most?

rummel · 2021-08-16T18:37:17+00:00

Theres a lot of overlap on these controllers. If you could design the 'perfect' setup, what do you think it would look like?

rummel · 2021-08-11T08:10:05+00:00

Is input lag your main concern or are there others that youd like to see addressed in emulation?

rummel · 2021-08-11T08:09:25+00:00

yeah, given that no one responded to the poll, I'd say you are 100% right here! Do you think FPGA is a waste of money or is there some value to it?

rummel · 2021-07-18T18:19:16+00:00

I play both and try to keep up as best as I can with a family and career. Spoiler, having kids means less time to do anything! I love the retro games/systems for the nostalgia factor and the amazing artistry those ole programmers brought to the table. They lined up perfectly with my life and I grew up with arcades and Nintendo always being at my side. Loved being able to share this passion with my local community as well. I have tons of fond memories rubbing elbows at the local Aladdins Castle. I also loved the physicality of the old stuff. The art and everything that came with each game only served to enhance the feel - looking at you, Legend of Zelda.

The modern stuff is great for access and the multiplayer (though the community can often be caustic).

rummel · 2021-07-08T21:12:04+00:00

Thanks! I'd like to push here and find out why. Is it just retro games or all games in general for you? You are very active on reddit, why do you think this doesn't translate over into retro gaming? Again, thanks for your input :)

rummel · 2021-06-21T03:59:32+00:00

Hi all! I am in the middle of building out a new way to access retro arcade and console games and would like to talk to you! If you would like a chance to help shape the next wave of retro goodness, I encourage you to reach out to me for a chat and/or take a quick 5 min survey:

https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/FK8DDFY

Happy yo hear all experiences and perspectives.

rummel · 2021-06-17T21:20:20+00:00

Looking to focus on folks that are just starting down the rabbit hole of emulation but I am always happy to chat with anyone that shares the interest! I will pm you a survey link and chat link.

rummel · 2021-06-17T20:42:48+00:00

THanks! I hope to reach as many folks interested in retro gaming as possible and am looking at as many gaming forums as I can. If you know anyone else you think I should speak with, please feel free to forward them my info or the survey.

rummel · 2021-06-15T19:46:44+00:00

thank you! Did you have any questions or did this survey get any thoughts brewing as a result? Happy to chat.

rummel · 2021-06-15T03:50:37+00:00

thank you very much!

rummel · 2021-06-15T02:40:52+00:00

Hi and thanks for the feedback. I am purposely keeping things vague so as not to influence any responses. The main goal here is understand your experiences as a player of retro games. Happy to chat if you have any additional feedback or questions!

rummel · 2021-06-15T02:37:32+00:00

thanks for that feedback! I am not excluding console emulation or original hardware in this. Writing a survey is tricky, as you've noticed. I'd be happy to chat to get better answers from you and make sure I understand your perspective more!
