Outside of The Nostalgia Society, I've mostly been playing Taz-Mania on SMS and some dumb Garfield game on MegaDrive/Genesis.

Got my hands on a new emulation-capable system and have been trying it out on stuff.

O.G. Deus Ex GOTY edition with GMDX mods
D.E. is my favorite shooter series besides Half-Life
 
I decided to do one more run of RBX, and managed a 1CC with Rick Norton this time, and got a new high score on top. It was to make up for a run where I had a soft lock, and I didn't want to restart at that time. This was weeks ago though.

I am starting Pragmata tonight.
 
going back to illusion of time on my snes. i really want to advance and finish this one.

and give it a miss up until now ive played enough pro evo to know what
the standard is. Loving the superstars ive already got Messi, Harry Kane, Ronaldo playing for man united Heung Son Min is really good as well in a united shirt.
 
Rollergames (NES). My God is this game difficult with the platforming! It's not to the level of Battletoads, but is halfway there. Not helping matters, if you pick the lady in pink. She's fast, but to the detriment of the platforming. I managed to beat the whole game with her. At least the game gives you unlimited continues. Not the best brawler/platformer hybrid on the console, but still better has better brawler combat than Bayou Billy/Mad City. There's actual combos and grab moves, and you get a special move you can use up to three times that doesn't drain health. The final boss is piss easy; especially with a turbo controller/function. The music has that classic 8-bit Konami greatness.

Currently working on Trails of Cold Steel III and Danganronpa - Trigger Happy Havoc.

I still need to finish up a Trails of Cold Steel NG+ run.
 
Game: Pokémon Crystal Clear

Platform: Game Boy Color (playing on an emulator)

Thoughts: Crystal Clear, a ROM hack of Pokémon Crystal, is a major step towards what I believe to be an ideal Pokémon game. This being my second full playthrough, I'm trying to mix things up between filling the Pokédex, becoming the region Champion, and completing all the side content. Without getting into the weeds of specific details, I'm enjoying my time so far with Seel as my starter.
 
Breath of Fire 2. Going through the whole series again since Capcom ain't releasing a collection for me.

I'm doing the same, still on the first game. For some reason I stopped following the series after beating the third game at the time.
 
i actually marathoned metal gear solid yesterday and it was an experience id say. the game gave me a lot of thoughts that i actually would want to document on here but ill double check if and how i can do that before committing.
 
Mobile Suit Gundam - Federation vs. Zeon_SLUS-20382_20260420200424.png

finally got to finishing gundam: federation vs zeon.
i can't say im too much of a newtype but i did achieve the rank of a rear admiral.
this game was really tricky to play. the enemy ai is really good at dodging when it wants to, so you really need to time your shots. like right as/before they land, run out of boost, or shoot. this is easiest to do with beam weapons. machine guns require you to really lay each shot down and rockets are especially inaccurate, despite being homing rockets. they can also get shot down. better to use those on navel ships.

otherwise its a pretty fun game. campaigns are 100+ missions on both sides. mobile suits retain damage between missions, so you have to keep rotating between them. i recommend it if you like gundam or arcady action games.
 
I picked up the Mega Man Zero/ZX collection recently, and I've gone on a complete Mega Man kick. I really like the Zero games, especially with the collection's enhanced save feature which really removes a lot of the painful points.

I haven't finished ZX yet, but I would so far say
Zero 3 > Zero 4 > ZX > Zero 2 > Zero 1
 
Wild Arms 3 right now. I have it on my modded PS2 with the McBoot SATA method. It looks as beautiful now as it now in the early 2000's.

I've never beaten it!
 
Playing Xenogears for the ps1, absolutely blown away by how cool that intro was.
I also think it's neat how at the time Square had been releasing rpgs with 3d characters in a pre-rendered 2d world, and how this game contrasts that by having 2d characters in a 3d world.
