This Month's Haul: March 2019

[Fe 26]

I just looked up this little article about Muslims and video games. It doesn't look like they have a lot of options, because of all the rules of the religion and it's objection to anything that isn't being productive.

Why do I get a feeling that Allah is the only serious pursuit?

I just got my Duo and N64 RGB modded. Rondo and Gradius 2 looks absolutely phenomenal in RGB, it is crazy how good these games look with improved clarity and color. The N64 improvement isn't as noticeable unless it is 2D stuff. My modder did forget to solder a wire to activate the deblur function on the chip so it will go back and see if it makes that much difference for 3D games.

Honestly for n64 I like Svideo better, some games look weird in RGB.

The haul thread, now with a dab of racism.

[kedawa]

Make believe isn't a race.

[Fe 26]

Muslims aren't a race and all religion is up for mockery.

[gamevet]

Just an observance of cultural (religion) difference when it comes to video games.

TNL'er haul:

SMT4: Apocalypse courtesy of Mollie courtesy of that Target clearance.
CvS1 Pro (DC) courtesy of Josh courtesy of Capcom balancing a bad game badly.

Also got Block Wars and Remote Control Dandy for PS1. I think I paid $10 shipped and $15 shipped respectively. The bottom has really fallen out of PS1 and DC import games, thankfully.

CvS1 has the prettier backgrounds of the two CvS games anyway.

I adore CvS1. It was my in to competitive Street Fighter and I'll never forgive it/stop being grateful for that.

Some of those backgrounds really are incredible, yeah. The one (Ken stage?) on the streets with the huge shadows against the brick wall...
