I’d vote Dragon Quest III!

waybackguy , 5 months ago

Dragon Quest for sure! Short but sweet. The sequels are longer. The final boss on Dragon Quest 5 was tough. Super Famicom great 90’s game.

Great, after reading the words City Connection, that music will be stuck in my head for a week

City Connection! Love that game, fantastic soubdtrack.

cloudless OP , 5 months ago

Yeah it is a bit simplistic, but I go back to it for a short run once in a while. Miss the simple pick up and play.

themeatbridge , 5 months ago to retrogaming in My most memorable NES games

Lot of ones inthere I don’t recognize, but I think the only one that should be added is Metroid.

cloudless OP , 5 months ago

Yeah. I want to highlight some games that are under-appreciated. If I add SMB/Zelda/Metroid etc then there would be less room for less known games.

Skipping some and having one in twice

cloudless OP , 5 months ago

Sorry about that.

Cipher22 , 5 months ago

Not anything worth apologizing for.

This is your list. That I think some things may be missing is irrelevant, but it can be a conversation starter.

That you have a duplicate means you can cram more of your favorites in, if you like.

Which was your favorite?

cloudless OP , 5 months ago

Definitely Balloon Fight. The control scheme is perfect. Two player coop. Simple but fun, and with the right challenge.

I wish it had more variety in the level design.

What are your NES favourites?

Cipher22 , 5 months ago

My favorites were Ninja Turtles, Final Fantasy, Paperboy, Zelda, Rygar, Castlevania 3, or Kid Icarus. At least those ones got massive amounts of play time.

cloudless OP , 5 months ago

Kid Icarus is a little too difficult for me, but I think I should try again and see if I can get better.

I only played TMNT on SNES, perhaps I should try the NES one.

I never tried Paperboy, is it good?

Cipher22 , 5 months ago

I never said I was good at them. LOL. I enjoyed them all. For the time they came out, they were amazing to me.

I think the part I liked about TMNT was that it had multiple play styles in one game, so it felt like more.

Paperboy was a racing game with a timing mechanism. You ride a bike along a set course, dodging obstacles like the racing games of the time. However, you have to time throwing papers at or in mailboxes to get points to pass stages.

The least annoying reader on Android I've found is moon reader pro. It feels a lot worse to me than maple reader on iOS though.

A lot of people seem to recommend KOReader (it might be because it can be installed on a lot of readers that don't have Android though), and actually reading is fine, but browsing your library is awful. It's completely free without anti features though (on fdroid if it isn't on the play store).

Fudoshin OP , 5 months ago

Awesome - thank you! You also gave me the idea to install F-Droid (which lead me to Droidify too!).

Thanks!

Try Librera from F-Droid. I only wanted a pdf reader, and got that and an epub reader/ebook manager too. Apparently it’s also good for music manuscript too but I haven’t used it for that.

conciselyverbose , 5 months ago

It's crazy how different different apps render the same text in the same font.

I ended up having to force roboto thin to get something close to how moon reader displays regular roboto.

I'm giving it a shot now, though. I do like that nice side bar that gives you fine control over how your library is displayed, with different profiles for different things.

Hossenfeffer OP , 5 months ago

Sorry. Hanging head in shame, etc. I found it mildly entertaining how grossly wrong it was on every single level.

I still looked at it, that’s content creation baby.
