videogame things you think about a lot (Part 1)

I’m the person who bought one because all I had was a Game Boy and what I wanted more than anything were long meaty console games but I still couldn’t afford a SNES. A Virtual Boy for $30? Games for $10 a piece? Yeah I could do that.

I had to wait a couple months for my birthday to ask a friend to get me the AC adaptor because I certainly wasn’t getting more than 6 AAs a month

genki was listed as a developer on this pre-launch ps4 announcement of developers confirmed to be making ps4 games.

the years have passed and they never showed up on ps4. when they did finally announce a new genki racing project game, it turned out to be a mobage that was shut down not even a year after it launched.

at least i still have playing through shutokou battle x someday to look forward to.

The game removes the train control UI if it detects that it’s been pirated. This effectively prevents the player from getting far into the game, since there is an early train driving section in the game.

i’m one of the few people who ever seemed to like phantom hourglass, but was never able to give spirit tracks a go because of this
