Random Gaming Thoughts

I'm not a huge Mega Man fan, but I did know about that game. The Wonderswan / Wonderswan Color are full of really good stuff. I'd say the WSC game library is about as good as that of the NGPC (though completely different genres are represented of course).

I agree the WS/WSC is as good as NGP/NGPC.

There's another fun Mega Man that got translated for WS also:

I beat it a few years ago, was actually a good time. Very short though.

Edit:

Speaking of Mega Man. When Sarge and Xeogred were talking about having beaten all the Mega Man games back in the Games Beaten thread, I realized I had not beaten Mega Man 4-6. So I was thinking of buying this:



But I've read that its emulation of Mega Man 5 is screwed up. As in, it skips frames and the audio is off. Does anyone know if that's true? Or is the internet lying yet again?

I haven't played 5 on that collection yet, but I didn't notice any problems in 1 - 4. I know that doesn't answer your question, but what I've played of it has had pretty good quality emulation.

Is it specific to the 3DS version or something? Because the games played like a dream on the PS4 release.

[Sarge]

Apparently it is just that version. Also, the Japanese version in that collection doesn't have the issue.

So you can switch to Rockman 5 in this release? Does Mega Man 5 have a lot of cutscenes with text that I'd be missing out on?

XCOM 2 coming to consoles, yessssssss!

Saw this, so excite! All I really want is the controller support ... I hope they add that to the PC version.

I think it has some, but they're not really important. If you do the challenges, though, you'll have to put up with the American version.

I have been offered a 32" inch "professional monitor" which I'm 95% sure is a BVM--A or BVM-D

It's too big and heavy for me but I know a bunch of people that would kill for it. I think I should make rounds on forums and ask if anyone is interested.
