    Update on my Retro Gaming Passion Project 8bitedge

    Hi Everyone, AI has been very very helpful in so many ways with this project. To recap as I haven't posted in a few months, I started working on 8bitedge.com over a year ago to implement an easy way to find games in markets like Ebay for discounts below pricecharting data. It started as a...

    Does anyone else find the game Donkey Kong 64 to be a 10/10 and one of the best platformers?

    I don't know but I would rate the platforming retro games Donkey Kong 64 and Paper Mario 64 as 10/10s because they are flawless. Donkey Kong 64 has excellent sound, engrossing worlds (especially frantic factory), decent music and just epicness all around despite being too easy to beat. Feels...

    Guys, I created a retro-style productivity tool! (feat. 90s Windows Vibe)

    Hi everyone! I’m a developer who is deeply in love with the classic 90s Windows UI. I always felt like modern browsers are too "flat" and sometimes lack the raw power for heavy multi-taskers. So, I decided to build my own browser from scratch: gLinksWWW. It looks like it’s straight out of...

    The "Better" Carbon? Why Need for Speed: Own the City is a Handheld Gem

    After playing the incredible—yet flawed—Need for Speed: Most Wanted on PC (which you can read my thoughts here), I promised myself that the next game in the series would be its direct sequel: Carbon. Released in 2006 with slightly improved graphics and a return to the nocturnal vibes of...

    Worst Translations that Aren't in English.

    Everyone knows about that in the past, translating a game into english was mediocre at best, and hilarious at its lowest ( the first Zelda, the entirety of Capcom and Konami game, etc.). But now I've been thinking about other languages, what are some of the worst translations in your native...

    Looking for some retro RPGs with "rebirth" mechanics where grinding can lead to an advantage

    Some form of "you hit this threshold, now you can reset for extra stats" or various other things like different vocations that give stat and skill boosts between different jobs/classes permanently. Skill trees are welcome too! As long as I can emulate it and it's in English, things are fair...

    What toys do y'all remember having fond memories of and possibly even wish you had one Brand New in the Box. Does anyone remember TOYBIZ Bashin Brawlers They spoke when you twisted a body part and depending on the hit taken the voice would corelate with the body parts.

    What do you play retro consoles on?

    I got pretty lucky and secured myself a Sony BVM before prices got a bit too high. A neat little thing about it, are the module slots in the back. Eventually, I'll stop lazing around and do something with them. Any other crt lovers out there?
