Moved the hacked PS1 mini (it has like 80+ games on it now thanks to Autobleem, the most important of them being Diablo) to the living room to start up a new Diablo run. I beat it two years ago in September and I started my run(s) in August 2021. Something about August and fall, I guess. Last time, I tried a sorcerer but struggled til I switched to fighter, which I beat it with. This time, I'm trying a rogue. Never tried rogue before. Should be wild. Time for tons of saving and leaving all my gear on the ground in town! 🤣
It's pretty easy to adapt most console controllers to USB for use on modern systems, but #Playstation 1/2 controller adapters are a bit of a mess. The cheap ones that are all over eBay/Aliexpress are crap and unreliable; I'm sure Raphnet's #PSX adapter is lovely, but it's out of stock right now, and doesn't rumble; and there isn't a single Mayflash SJB3 on a store shelf anywhere anymore.
I need another project like I need a hole in my head, so... I should build my own PSX to USB adapter, right?
Hallöchen meine #Mastonauten, ich hab da mal wieder eine #frage für euch: Was ist das erste, das euch in den Sinn kommt bei dem Wort “#Ballerspiel ?
Bei mir ist es das #Game#Alien Trilogy auf der #playstation 1, welches ich mir damals von meinem Onkel ausgeliehen hatte und das mich zu Tode gegruselt hat 😂😅
That game where you popped your Music CDs into your PSX, generate a monster, then raise it and battle it? Yes, that game! Combo Breaker is one of the largest Fighting Game tournaments in the world, and MR2 will be there in under All In Together....
Well, this should be an interesting rabbit hole to go down.
I bought this as "junk/without guarantee".
Hopefully I'll be able to get it up and running again.🙏
I also hope the laser isn't fried, heard it's the weak point. #RetroGaming#Playstation#PSX#PS2#TiVo
Dear #Sony or #Capcom or whoever: Please remake Mega Man Legends 1 & 2. They are brilliant games, and while they hold up extremely well in terms of visual style, audio quality, storytelling, etc., they are indeed 23+ years old and it does show in the control scheme and lack of modern QoL features.
A remake today with updated (yet faithful) graphics and modernized controls would be spectacular.
Or, you know... MML3. That would be rad, too. And then do Tomba & Tomba 2, kthxbye.
The original #SegaCD version of #Lunar The Silver Star remains far and away my favorite version. I dislike the story changes the made to Silver Star Remake, and prefer the battle system of the original. Most importantly, I think the original Sega CD opening video completely, utteraly blows away the #PSX and #SegaSaturn opening videos.
There exists on an OST in japan a very rare full length rendition of the JPN version of the sega CD opening that completely 100% rules: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e6QY1vxo_EQ
It's the weekend and I'm knee-deep in this #Sony#PSX (the actual PSX DESR-5000).
It seems the DVD recording laser is shot and I have to source a new one.😬
Also: judging from that internal power connector I can probably put a REPS2 psu in there. #RetroGaming#Playstation#PS2
Finished Tomb Raider 1 for the first time! I think as a kid I played only up to the T-Rex level. But I did that like a million times. So great to finally see the rest of the game.
Looking for feedback on if I should split my #godotengine#psx (and #n64!) #foss#shader demos into separate demo and shader repos, attached with sub-modules
Playing Loaded on #ps1#psx. Top down shooter! Never played this one before. At least I think... Seems familiar in some spots. Maybe played it at a friend's back in the day or something.
Monster Rancher 2 will appear at Combo Breaker: Live In-Person monster tournament!
