Share games from your past that you still have fond memories of.
For years I tried to find this game again, I remember my mother taking me to a niche store called Fantasia which was a movie and video game rental store and also sold cameras and other electronics. This was one of the many SNES games I rented there and left strong memories in me.

MTG Forge is fan made from what I recall, looks good indeed. It's a shame, but sadly every company goes where the money is, and this is what most consumers seem to want, so we're stuck with the current state of things. Of course, fan projects will always be cool, but it's be so cool to see what could happen if classic design sensibilities had modern hardware and budget.

You can actually nullify this thing completely by shooting the ground with another weapon that leaves contamination as soon as it explodes (either a toxin tractor or nuke cannon) but you have to be fast. In mods that give you better AA units with more damage the faster you get those the safer you will be

We lived out in the boonies so no computer stores nearby except the place my dad worked as some data entry clerk, who only had a BBS so he could communicate with his boss and coworkers, but also let us kids get sharewares and occasionally bought us full versions to (for example) Gladiator, Commander Keen, and Walls of Bratock. My brother figured out how to pirate all the episodes of Doom and Doom 2, but other than that it was sharewares all day every day when my dad wasn't working.

If I ever find that photo again, from around 2006 or so, where I lined up like 30 game CDs from the 90's to early-mid 00's I owned with such titles as the original Neverwinter Nights, Morrowind, Planescape: Torment, Postal 2 and so on I think that'd be good for serious nostalgiafagging.

The ports of older games were my favorite part of the Game Boy Advance besides the Advance Wars games. I had Super Mario Advance 2 and 3, the two NES Zelda ports, Konami Collector's Series: Arcade Advanced, Sega Smash Pack, and Activision Anthology. The latter might have been my most prized cartridge. I've unfortunately never had the chance of playing the original hardware, but I imagine the achievement system made it better than the real thing. I seem to recall paying an arm and a leg for it though.

I don't remember if I owned the port of A Link to the Past or not, but I at least played that one before.

The backwards compatibility with the older Game Boy models combined with the rechargeable battery, built-in screen lighting, and clamshell design made those previous systems feel obsolete to me. It annoyed me when the DS only retained backwards compatibility with the Game Boy Advance and not anything prior.

While you can probably get a better experience on other handhelds these days, the Game Boy Advance SP is the handheld I have the most fondness for.

 No.16834

>>16832
The GBA SP was a really nice form factor, the clamshell design made it the most portable handheld ever, very convenient. I never owned one, I only had the original GBA and I never used it much, I think the lack of a backlight made it less engaging. It's a good rule of thumb to wait for Nintendo to release the upgraded models of their consoles because they're always way better.

I had the original and then the SP. I think on car rides me and my brother would switch off between them. The original felt so undesirable to me after getting the SP that I don't even remember exactly what color we had. I think it was the non-translucent blue one, but I'm not entirely sure. The SP felt like a huge step above it.

I don't know if it matters much, but I kind of screwed up the formatting of my previous post. The last paragraph should have come directly prior to the one right before it.

I have heard the D-pad was better on the original, I'll give you that. But the buttons on the DS Lite always worked fine for me. They also tweaked the touchscreen and stylus.

>Oh yeah and GBA games didn't hang out like a tumor on the DS phat.

That's just being petty. Many consoles have had the cartridges sticking out, it wasn't unique to the DS Lite.
