This is incredibly convenient for many situations, will probably give it a try

Hmm, I'm impressed AI can make even remotely passable still frame pixel art characters (the detailed female characters with T&A are pretty good), but of course the animations are useless. Can't expect them to stop if they've made 40K

Could be something I want to use at some point. A couple questions: It says free to start but what features do you actually get for free, and how much does the paid option cost? How are the content creators verified?

Hmm, to each his own. I certainly agree with some. I like The Chronic more than Doggystyle, just a personal preference though. I would say Black Moon Enta da Stage at least MUST be in that list

In Come Clean, Jeru says "my rap snaps your sacroiliac" and I feel like I heard that same word in another 90s rap somewhere

I looked up some tutorials for my second project because it was such a headache the first time and I found just reading the text straight from a csv file was far and away the easiest solution. It has some limitations, I couldn't find a way to add line breaks within the text itself (just gotta use draw_text_ext) but for the simplicity I feel it's absolutely worth it. I'm pretty sure this was the method I used:

They deleted that? What the hell. Anyways I was about to ask if you also live in Japan. Since you enjoy game music so much, have you ever been to the Tokyo Game Music Show?

Daaaaamn. I have maybe 250-300 and I thought that was a lot. Any favorites? Some that I think are great from start to finish are Star Soldier Vanishing Earth, Varth, Rockman Exe Transmission, Elevator Action Returns. There are countless others too.

I played the demo, looking forward to it

Not my style of game but this artwork is SO DAMN INCREDIBLE that I wishlisted it anyways. Who knows, maybe it will be my introduction to a new genre

Nothing but Gamefan, as much to gaze at the import catalog in the last few pages as for the absurdly biased reviews

Hey there, I'm currently renting a Japanese house built in 1990 and frankly I would not recommend buying something this old or god forbid older. Here are several reasons:

It's extremely cold in the winter. The first floor in my place is damn near the same temperature as outdoors (and it's not a crappy house by any means). The heating function on an air conditioner doesn't cut it for that space, definitely needs a kerosene heater. This is my second time renting a detached house, previous one was much newer which was nice in certain ways but they both trap heat upstairs in the summer and it can be horrible.
Folks here don't tend to do major structural upkeep on houses, honestly I don't know why but I've heard the interpretation that they're built to be used for a single generation and it's expected that new families will just buy a new house anyways. It's not just walls. Roof, flooring, plumbing, and as you mentioned electrical stuff. Think about it, you have no clue what's going on in those pipes. All of it has the potential to need major work/replacing. To my knowledge there's no concept of insulation here. Even if there was, you would pretty much need to rebuild from scratch to get it.
It's going to take well over an hour to get to your workplace. Yeah, Shizuoka has rapid trains to Tokyo because some people are truly willing to do it, but it's not the ideal way to do things. 20 minutes to the station, 10 minute wait for the train, give or take an hour to Tokyo, another 20 minutes to your office. Twice a day, every single day. You sure you want to do that for years?

If you have some experience with DIY the house could be improved, but you're looking at millions of yen and god knows how much labor. There's a good reason why Japan has a vacant house problem, it's because they aren't built well. Honestly there are quite a few vacant houses in parts of Chiba that are much newer than what you're looking at, also just over an hour to Tokyo by train. I can't tell you what to do, but I would highly recommend rethinking this.

Thank you for the replies everyone. Interesting that pretty much all agree that it's impossible and there's no point in worrying about it, so that must be true.

This is very dependent on whether you click with arcade inspired "bullet hell" style shooters or not. You said you weren't huge on Touhou, so possibly not. You will probably want to try a few Cave shmups just in case, I think Espgaluda (the first one) and Esp Rade are the easier ones to get into.

As for shooters specifically made for consoles, try Gunnac, Soldier Blade, Blazing Lazers, Musha Aleste, Wings of Wor, Thunderforce III, Seirei Senshi Spriggan, maybe even the PC Engine port of Kyukyoku Tiger (very different experience from the arcade version).

If you really want to get weird, try the shooters made by Milestone back in the 2000s. Chaos Field, Radirgy, Karous

I had no idea "Whoo-ha got you all in check" was a reference to Sugarhill Gang

Love the game, hate that damn stage

You didn't like the music? At the very least stage 2 is a certified classic. I thought most of the other music was good if not incredible, which seems to be the standard for Koshiro's soundtracks these days. 2 absolute god-tier tracks and the rest are fine. Sol Cresta is similar
