Random Gaming Thoughts

A blurb I saw was that Sega is calling it an "open-zone game".

Just watched the Sonic Frontiers trailer.
It looks great, but it's so blatantly "Sonic: Breath of the Wild".

The world scenery looks like Sonic: Breath of the Wild for sure. But there's no way the game will actually play anything like it. That would just be... weird.

Well... they've done swords before....

And turning into a wolf beast...

And who can forget the time Sonic and a human kissed.

I was playing Geometry Wars 3 on the Vita. I was looking to see if there were any twin stick shooters GW on the Switch. Am I wrong in that there really aren't any?

I played a bit of Tesla Force on my phone, and later found that I bought it on Switch while drunk (my best purchases happen between consciousnesses). No delay in this game that I could feel. I think there's lots of twin-stick games you overlooked.

Soul Knight, but you can get that on your phone and I think it's better. It's pretty rad.

I dont want to open a new thread over this, but is there something like Game Shark for PC Games and emulated ones? There are some games that I would like to go through to experience them I just do not want to actually do the challenges of the game. I would like to have something to enable faster movement, unlimited lives, or invulnerability.

There are many, actually. I'll list the ones I have experience with:

Back in the DOS days, I used Game Wizard 32

In Windows 98 & XP times, I used GameWiz32 1.42; 1.43 is here but if it isn't the registered version I can provide the version I used if someone wants it. It still worked in windows 7.

The last few times my nephew needed some help in some games on the computer I found the solutions using Cheat Engine (their forums are full of memory value tables for most windows games)
https://www.cheatengine.org/

All of these work on emulators for their respective OSes, they just search for changing memory values (HP, defense, etc) and can then modify or lock them into a value.

Just be aware that online games will not allow these things. I don't play games online, but I hear you can use a Chronus device for stuff:

There was a post about it, but it was right when I registered on this website (almost 2 years ago), so I can't seem to find it. I'm writing my script for the Zelda game ranking project I'm doing, and am currently writing for the first Zelda game. I remember people here saying that there were 2-3 games that kind of did that genre first. What were they? I think Adventure was one of them but I don't remember the rest.

Hydlide and Dragon Slayer are the two most cited as proto-Zelda games.
