There is no length requirement on articles submitted to N4G.com, at least as far as I know. There are many articles that are short, such as the one we are talking about here, that have been approved on N4G (and some shorter over the years).
The other users of N4G.com disagree with you as far as this being allowed or not.
The limit to the Mac is stated by the dev. This could be due to them not having Windows available. If you have the hardware and can confirm it works on Windows Oculus Rift then I would love to update the article.
True, but coming from a North American perspective, it failed. World wide it had a much better reception. Same thing for the Commodore Amiga and Atari ST, both were bigger in Europe but not nearly as much in North America.
It all depends on perspective.
Oh yeah, this is one that I am sure would sell like hotcakes if they would make it. Even if a homebrew developer made it, I am sure it would elevate them to the upper echelons of the craft rather quickly.
I have plenty more of these "What would x look like" articles coming. Just have to write them.
The Commodore 64 supported cassette decks to load games off of. Slow as hell but it supported them.
I do too. It is such a good idea that is hardly being used.
You won't be sorry playing this one. It is really good.
It is really awesome looking. I wish they would show more of the in game play though.
I have to agree, all of the games listed were great but Mickey Mania just had something more going for it (maybe the concept?) then the Sega CD version with that extra, exclusive, level just pushed that version over the top.
It doesn't bode well that Sega has stopped many attempts by fans to do a Streets of Rage style remakes (though they were using characters and art owned by Sega).
The only thing I would like to have seen in this hack is the same as with the others. I wish there would have been more work put into it and the missing frames of animation that are needed (such as using weapons) would have been created. I understand that is probably outside of the capabilities of the hackers making these but it would be awesome.
We published a review of this title over a year ago in Retro Gaming Magazine. It is great to see it getting a wider release outside of what the developer was able to accomplish.
Surprisingly. I figured the C64 version would look really bad but, yeah, it is on par with the Sega CD version.
I never owned a Virtual Boy but I probably wore out the demo unit at a local Toys R U store everyday after work. I would stop in there and play a good half hour or so before heading out to do other things. It was a great device, too bad they couldn't work out the kinks as far as consumers are concerned.
That is the pic the owner is calling the official prototype build. Just stating what they are telling everyone.
Thanks for that bit of info though. Very interesting. Do you think this could be a hoax?
What do you mean?
No reason they couldn't build a case to resemble the NES with a 3D printer. That would be cool as hell if they did.
It is not genuine NES games. It is "NES like" cartridges. He states in the text, and I repeat it in the title and the content of my article, that these are "NES like" cartridges that contain hard drives with the game data on them (2.5" drives).
He states that the system is not hooked up to his network, that is why the games won't play since they cannot be validated.
Read through it and had to give this my 3 points to get it live. We need more stuff like this and less "Top whatever" lists in the "retro" world.
