There's probably a thread on it somewhere,
in any case, is anyone on here looking forward to the "Retro Video Game System" ?

amazing, it looks exactly like a dental camera!

I see what you did there.

The RETRO VGS is a new cartridge based video game system that will be launching following a spring/summer Kickstarter campaign.

I don't quite understand what's even going on here.

A new console (with a Jaguar shell of all things) with new cartridge based games?

Why, exactly?

Why, exactly?

The RETRO VGS will reestablish the culture of video gaming, something that has been slowly dismantled over the last couple console generations.

Looking to buy a PSP mostly to play Final Fantasy and Wipeout games. Been gazumped three times. Hell of a day to quit sniffing glue.

Haven't heard much about "Whore of the Orient" recently, have we?

I am not cut out to be a dirty dirty game reseller/speculator.

I bought 2 copies of Retro City Rampage DX for the PS4 when they produced the limited physical release... and part of me goes "I should have bought more" because they were only $25, but the other part of me goes "I can't rip people off for these" because I'm seeing listings for like $150-200 and just... no.

The Order: 1886 looks like the most expensive Mega-CD game ever made.

Do you shmup on PC? Cause if you use a pad, finding a way to map the screen shot command to a button on the pad could help with trying to get that perfect shot...

Hitting the button is not a problem, the problem is just fitting everything in. I mean, this is a 640x400 picture, 50 pixels longer than I normally use in my blog:

Notice how close I am to the boss, how it doesn't fully appear in the picture and how not taking those extra 50 pixels would remove the player from the picture. Pictures like this one, which would normally be great just don't work after cropping:

I would love to have some kind of "Additional screenshots" gallery, but I don't think I can do it in a non-ugly manner.

Can you make the screenshot click-thru? Have a cropped version on the main blog, then have a "click for real screenshot" feature? Even if it's just a bare jpg that they land on...
