>McFat
Sounds more like a King Hippo name than a Von Kaiser name. King Hippo should canonically just be a ring name his real name is McFat. In a perfect world King Hippo should canonically be Mike Tyson's 9 year old retarded son and the only boxer Little Mac ever (accidentally) killed in the ring. Boxing is a dangerous game, it's rare but sometimes fatalities can happen

>>12761854
Sandman could probably be stronger than Little Mac and Mike Tyson if your boi didn't waste so much time & money smoking $150,000 of crackrock every month with his entourage of gangster celebrities. The reason Mr. Sandman and King Hippo suck balls in the ring is because they never train they both just drink alcohol and party and do drugs and pound groupies all day every day 24/7

three simple reasons why melee and project M are better than capcom fighters

1) Analog Controls vs Digital Controls
2) the enemy player can always move their character, even inside a combo string. This is orders of magnitude more intresting than the burst/combo breaker systems found in killer instinct, guility gear and mortal kombat and better than gimmicky comeback mechanics like X-Factor or Cinematic Ultras
3)you play neutral more often

bonus- ledge play is fun as shit

hardees/carls stopped being good around the covid/BLM era where they started focusing on chicken and biscuts. the actual top tier burger joint is Culvers. Culvers is like in and out quality but with a massive menu . I enjoy the consistancy burger king has had over the years too.

Nah there was some oddly specific shit in the game beyond just the twin stuff. Don't wanna get too into it but there was some serious retardation going on where I kept getting (mis)diagnosed with genetic conditions (ADHD, autism) and my brother wasn't, which obviously makes no sense and was confusing for both of us. Made me hyper aware of genes and genetic stuff.

I think the issue was that the formula was so good and the underlying mechanics so satisfying that it didn't really seem like there was a need to innovate. Which to be fair, I largely agree with, since I think that all of the NES MM games are excellent

>the formula was so good and the underlying mechanics so satisfying that it didn't really seem like there was a need to innovate
The same could be said of something like SMW, yet Yoshi's Island and Mario 64 were made anyway. Failing to evolve the Mega Man formula is good in the sense that they haven't screwed up the main series yet, but I think it's a huge missed opportunity.

You mean the two gay, childish games that killed traditional Mario and spearheaded Nintendo devs making games for themselves instead of the players?

it's funny. when I was a kid I definitely humanized any robot in fiction and felt bad about people mistreating them etc.
now we have ai that you can have a conversation with and does a lot of human things better than most humans and I feel zero empathy about any of these machines. they're just software running in a data center somewhere, and if you put them on a fancy humanoid robot that will not change. I would send data back to starfleet to get lobotomized without thinking about any ethical implications at all

What do you think about Retroachievements? I've found it to be a decent way to motivate myself to finish games instead of drop them, even when I'm sitting on folders of thousands of ROMs. There might be issues I'm unaware of so far but it seems pretty easy to just leave Retroarch logged in and enjoy the dopamine bumps now and then.

I don't understand why this game never became popular in retro circles. I can understand not selling super well since it was a late release, but it's been included in multiple collections over the years and emulation has been a thing for ages, so how has this not caught on when it's a great game?

And you would think the game would at least catch on with Sonic fags since it's made by Sonic Team and literally uses the Sonic engine, but no! It's even based on one of the proposed Sega mascot concepts.

>Try to keep things /vr/ related: Focus should be on 6th Gen Consoles and older. Slight off topic is fine so long as it's related to CRTs, such as later 16:9 models, HD models, etc. Systems with backwards compatibility are also safe territory, as are re-releases on newer hardware. PC CRTs are also welcome and appreciated.
>Produce OC! Bust out your camera and take photos of your CRTs displaying all sorts of games, featuring all sorts of tubes, using all sorts of signals. Getting good shots can be hard. Match your camera's frame rate (50 or 60fps) in your camera apps' settings and use a low ISO for best results.

Limited discussion of video processing and scaling devices is alright, but remember to keep the focus on CRTs and CRT accessories.
