Today I'm dropping my third (~1 min). It's about a game I'm sure everyone here played at least once in a lifetime. 🤼‍♂️

What are your thoughts on Street Fighter 2 on Game Boy? 🤔

Is it a good port considering the Game Boy's hardware? 👌

Or do you know even worse ports? 👎

Street Fighter II originally was released for arcades in 1991 and has been ported to numerous consoles and platforms. But did you know that even the Game Boy Classic got his own version of the most influential fighting game ever made?The Game Boy port was released in 1995 and had to be reduced in complexity due to the limited capabilities of the handheld. From the characters side Dhalsim, E. Honda, Vega and their home stages didn't make it into the game. Because the Game Boy only had two buttons, the strength of punches and kicks has to be determined by the duration of button presses and many of the character moves had to be simplified or completely removed. The game runs at less than ten frames per second and in the stages there are no moving background elements or destructible objects. But there are also positive aspects about the Game Boy version. The game offers large, recognizable character sprites and three different game modes. When playing the game on the Super Game Boy, the health bars can be colored and there are unique borders that follow the stage that you're fighting on. By Game Boy standards the game can be seen as an excellent conversion. But the numerous downgrades only made it a bad fallback option for those not having access to a home console or computer.

My new Game Boy Mini Camera! I redesigned HDR’s camera flash cart PCB into a smaller size and incorporated the original sensor, modeled a new shell and lens holder. This uses an iPhone XR lens & lens cover.

I'm doing a survey because I love retro games.

What is your own personal definition of a retro game?

Does the seventh generation of consoles count? (Wii / PS3 / Xbox 360)

What is the cut off?

Please boost for visibility.

Thank you 😊

I spent the better part of yesterday, and all day today trying to finish the first issue I have of N-Force, and it's finally ready!

I never had an issue of this before, but it's such a fun magazine, and I love the specially created artwork for each review, even though I'm not quite sure about the review setup at times.

N-Force 4 - October 1992 (UK) has just been added to the magazine catalogue.

Enjoy!

Today we have a dead DMG GameBoy on the table. I never have worked on those. And immediately it is obvious that they are VERY different in design from the GBP and the GBC. There are two big PCBs.

Someone should make a new 16-bit console and put a big marketing push behind it. We keep seeing many new games being made today for our beloved 8-bit and 16-bit systems including #Amiga #NES #ZXSpectrum #GameBoy and other fan favorites, but the hardware is dying and it’s not easily obtainable, so games are being made out of pure passion and nothing more.

I wonder if such an idea has any chance of success… I would love a new 16-bit handheld in GameBoy format.

...praised for its tight control, unique and non-linear gameplay and bright presentation, and is often regarded as one of the best titles for the NES. 🤩

Did you enjoy one of the Ducktales titles for NES or Game Boy? 😍

So, I wanted to share a few of my custom designed t-shirts I made.

Both of them are based on real shirts I own! The top is Jolly Redd's face with "Legit" on the bottom. The bottom is a green outline of a Gameboy. Both are black shirts!

Here are the design codes.

Redd - MO-PSTN-5PT8-C6NY
Gameboy - MO-GPVL-1V6M-XT4V

Let me know and tag me if you end up wearing them on your island!

The majority of my output as of late has been very SNES heavy.
So apologies about the lack of variety.
I will do my best to switch things up a little, but the next couple of weeks and months will most likely keep being SNES heavy.

That being said, I'm proud to present you with the very first issue of N-Force today: so N-Force 1 - July 1992 (UK) has just been added to the preliminary magazine catalogue.

💻 On m’a offert cette micro pour un anniversaire (le mien, et le 25e de Zelda). Une bonne intention mais avec 3 jeux préinstallés et un système fermé c’est tout de suite un déchet électronique en puissance. Ne pouvant la “défabriquer” j’ai au moins pu la rooter pour installer l’emulateur retro-go, à la base prévu pour d’autres systèmes. Voilà maintenant une console qui fait tourner tous les jeux ( )

Le menu de l’emulateur retro-go tournant sur la console Zelda Game and Watch, et présentant une liste de jeux.
La console faisant tourner le jeu NES Gargoyle’s Quest II.
Une scène du jeu Game Boy Color : Zelda Oracle of Ages. Impressionnante pour l’époque.

Even though I have a pair of Game Boy Color handhelds (one original and one with an IPS screen mod), a DMG Game Boy with an IPS screen mod, and an Analogue Pocket, I wanted to see what all the hubbub is with the new Funny Playing FPGA Game Boy Color. So, I picked up a kit and assembled it tonight.

Getting the battery and screen plugged in with my stubby fingers was not fun. But, I got it all put together in a translucent purple shell with clear buttons and purple membrane pads.

Updating the firmware was easy as plugging it onto my laptop, powering it up and copying over the update.bin file.

I have only tried it with my copy of Tetris and Road Rash so far. Not sure if I'll stick with the full screen or go back to the 4X with pixel line mode. Also need to test it with my EverDrive X7 flash cart.

Ich bin schon sehr enttäuscht von meinem #AnaloguePocket, ich habe bis heute nicht geschafft ein einziges #GameBoy #Game zu starten. Egal wie sehr ich die Sachen Reinige oder was auch immer ich mache, ich bekomme nur einen #Error Screen. Hat vielleicht jemand aus der #Tech
Ecke hier noch eine Idee für mich?

Achja: @ThreeM auch Radieren und 99%ISO hat nicht geholfen.

ich weiß nicht mehr weiter

Quick game of Tetris on the freshly modded GBC. Can you beat it?

Anyone know any games similar to the Spyro GBA ones? Isometric collectathons? I need more like this.

I wrote an article about the 3 games and just how good they are. Imo, they're extremely underrated. I really wanna play more games similar to it but I can't find much in the way of isometric collectathons(?) at all. Looking for any suggestions. Apologies if this isn't the right spot. GBA is retro right?...
