retrogaming

My college roommate had this little box that had 2 controllers and RCA’d into the TV that contained basically every game from the most important retro consoles. All the important consoles and games pre y2k. Including Nintendo, Atari, Sega, and maybe some arcade. I assume I can’t get it through normal channels because of some...

This was such a fun game. The premise is so simple but works so well. Staying ahead of the baddies is like an exciting puzzle. It was even better playing single screen multiplayer with a buddy....

I’m focused on NES, SNES, N64, Master System, and Genesis at the moment. I’ve just about reached the end of the cheap NES games and bought an Everdrive N8 Pro earlier this year. Mainly for ROM translations and homebrew, but I will admit to playing some of the higher dollar games on it. I’d much rather play actual carts...

ESL here, so bear with me. A friend and I started a channel on YouTube (this is not a sneaky advertising lol), it’s nothing innovative, we just play and talk. Everything started when we were talking about how we use to just sit together in the same couch and play or watch someone play. We used to play a lot of Resident Evil...

I should love this game… I’ve been trying for years to get in to it, keep thinking it will get better just round the corner but… It’s so damn tedious!...

I have been looking to get a upscaler for my retro consoles and also to allow me to stream these analog consoles....

Thanks to everyone that voted! We have our first Game Club! There were 32 entries and the winner was randomly selected....

I’ve heard people say it is therapeutic to reflect on your actions and interactions with others....

Besides the official Atari channel, that is.

When I was a kid, during the 90s I lived what it is considered the Disney Renaissance: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disney_Renaissance...

I don’t have a lot of space for consoles and cartridges, or money for consoles and cartridges but I do have a decent computer hooked up to a TV. What’s the best way to get an authentic experience via emulation? Here’s what I have so far:...

Hardly retro hardware but now with the new version coming out it’s definitely obsolete. Even so I’m still lovin my rp2+. Even my RP3+ hasn’t been able to replace it....

I’ve been buying games off of eBay before I’ve ever owned a credit card, and its web page could render on a PSP. Over the years I’ve purchased consoles, rare games, and common guff for my game library with virtually no issues....

Were there any card games like Magic: The Gathering for retro systems? I expect not, because the digital card game genre didn’t really “click” until later. But I thought I’d ask.

I’ll go first....

Other than Mario Paint were there any other art games for the old consoles? I tried some internet searches but came up empty handed.

Im looking for a flashcard for my '89 Gameboy and stumbled upon the Everdrive-GB cartridges. The x3 is about 20 bucks cheaper than the x5. What am I missing out on if I get the cheaper one? Only thing I wanna do is to play a few homebrew gameboy games.

HELLO amazing helpful Lemmitors (Lemmians… Lemurs. Whatever). I hope I can explain this clearly. I desire a pair (2) of PlayStation 2 controllers which work wirelessly via the SAME wireless dongle stuck into BOTH PS2 controller ports at the same time. This allows me to turn one off while my friend on the other side of the room...

I don’t remember why I originally bothered to read this manual 25 years ago, but I ended up reading it to enjoy the jokes and humorous writing it contained....

Why were there so few and what were they anyway?

This is mid 90s, I remember playing it on a PC that didn’t even have Windows on it. It was an alien invasion side scroller. You’re some action dude that has to fight his way through the levels, some of the early enemies are little blobs that jump at you....
