I'm playing Pokemon HeartGold on my iPhone and I love it! ( lemmy.world )
I installed Ignited via SideStore. No Jailbreaking necessary. Not computer tether. SideStore can renew the side loaded emulator every 7 days when on WiFi. The iPhone is perfect for DS emulation with a stylus....
How Did Anyone Beat This In The Arcade? ( i.imgur.com )

The New 8bitdo Retro Keyboard shipped early. Small-ish Male Hand for scale. ( midwest.social )
I can try to answer any questions, but it doesn’t seem like the 8bitdo Ultimate software is availible for download yet. Im not big into mechanical keyboards, this is actually my first, so I don’t have much direct comparison experience to other keyboards....
I re-purchased a Sega 32X. I don't know why... ( lemmy.world )
I used to have a 32x back in the day, but you know, Sega did what they did, and it didn’t really pan out. I thought the mushroom system was cool tech, but lamented how little value it added to the Genesis. I essentially gave it away....
Today in "Things that exist instead of a new Castlevania game" ( lemmy.world )
Say-Gaaaah! ( lemmy.world )
Years ago I inherited my wife’s family’s Game Gear. After a recap, and replacing the backlight, I started tracking down games to play on it. It’s been great exploring a whole library of games that I skipped out on as a kid! (I was a Nintendo kid) Now I have a nice little library of carts to play on this beast of a 90’s...
Halloween Retro Picks? ( lemmy.world )
I’m not normally one for themed, seasonal gaming… but Halloween seems to lend itself particularly well to playing a particular type of game....
I Completed my First Final Fantasy game! ( lemmy.world )
Some GameBoy Advance Fun ( lemmy.world )
Just dumped out my small bin of GBA games.

Nearly all my GameBoy Games ( lemmy.world )
Took all my games out of their protective cases and dumped them out on the table. Sometimes it’s just satisfying to rummage through a bunch of carts, hold them in your hands, and admire the label art. Does anyone else periodically do this with their physical games?
Made a DIY hard case for my Virtual Boy ( lemmy.world )
I made it earlier this year, thought I would share. Now my VB can safely travel with me!
The N64 released 27 years ago today. Feel old yet? ( midwest.social )
It came out around my birthday, so my mom had it pre-ordered for me as a gift from Babbage’s. I still remember her picking me up from school and telling me she had a surprise for me in the trunk.
Bomb Jack: A Home Port Comparison ( lemmy.world )
I feel as if I’ve been hanging out at the arse-end of the 80s a lot recently, comparing ports on computers that had no business running them. I’ve long suspected that if you want to see 8-bit micros at their best, you’re better served hanging around in 1986 rather than 1989. Things were so much more achievable back then…...
Facelift For A Previously Broken NES ( lemmy.world )
Modern power module to replace the old rusty one, cleaned edge connector, fixed cracks in the case, new coat of paint, and metallic stickers.
Commando: A Home Port Comparison ( i.imgur.com )
Commando (released as Senjō no Ōkami in Japan, Wolf of the Battlefield) is a 1985 Capcom arcade shooter. Word to the wise: Commando isn’t based on the Schwarzenegger movie of the same name - that’s some false knowledge I’ve carried round with me for close to forty years… oh, how I’ve embarrassed myself at dinner...
he finished Paper Mario 64 ( lemmy.world )
I helped for the battles and reading the dialogues but he did all the exploring by himself. He’s so thrilled, but also sad it’s over. Now I’m hesitant between Pokemon FireRed (he loves Pokemon but that a lot more text to read) or PaperMario TTYD (but we don’t have a switch for the remaster version). Any other ideas for...
GBC Aquired, Time to Mod ( files.catbox.moe )
I don have a large budget so it will take me a while todo much. I don’t have my soldering iron back yet either....

I guess it's a pinball kinda weekend. ( lemmy.world )
Decided to open my Amiga emulator and play one of my favorites from my teenage years. If you’ve never played this game, you’ll be surprised when you do. 4 tables. It feels surprisingly realistic. The ball moves like on a real pinball table. The music is very late 80s early 90s, of course!
Mastered The Little Mermaid ( lemmy.ml )
Just made all retroachievemens in this game in hardcode mode (without save states). Probably the easiest NES game with the easiest achievement set....
I don't think this opinion will be contra-versial here ( startrek.website )
