What video game are you playing?

[JD Irish]

What is the best way to get the old Nintendo 16 games to play? I have an itch for some Super Tecmo Bowl and Mike Tyson's Punch Out.

Nintendo Switch online also has old NES/SNES games.

 

[IrishLion]

On PC, I would download BizHawk. It’s an emulator that can run a whole bunch of different systems pretty seamlessly.

Then you just have to find game files.

ChatGPT and other AI programs can give very easy step-by-step guide to emulating anything you want, really

 

[dublinirish]

this is what i went off to play old NCAA titles from PS2 era

 

[Irish2155]

I'm not a full on expert here. But do you have the hardware and you want to know how to get it to work on a tv with only HDMI options? Or are you looking for like an option for emulating on a pc? or Raspberry Pi?

I know we could probably get you there.

I don't have the console or any games. Looking for something that I can just plug into the tv and go.

Gotcha. If you're looking for something like that, then you could go the Switch route that was mentioned. I know Tecmo has been in the rotation for the old SNES games.

You may also want to look into like the retro handheld options, like this I found on Amazon: Amazon.com

I'm not an expert so you will definitely want to do a little research there.

Emulating will always be the easy option especially since I think you need 2 different consoles for the games mentioned.

Thank you, gents.

[ACamp1900]

Funny I was just looking at that and the Castlevania preorder yesterday,… there’s so much time for both imo. I’m waiting

I'm definitely getting it but no reason to preorder something in advance that can't run out of stock.

The Halloween game too,… looks great

Counterpoint: you may need the full 5 months to download the whole game so you can play it on release day.

You jest but those of us traveling for Thanksgiving might start the download when we leave in hopes that it's finished when we arrive after Turkey Day

Anybody playing NCAA yet?

10 hour free trial started today

It's on PC now so this is my first time with it... its so amazing. They nailed so many little things with ND it's hard to pay attention during the games

 

[IrishBoognish]

I should add that its a "free trial" you have to pre-order the game and subscribe to EA Play to get it

Although RB2 is someone named TJ Mobley who i assume is supposed to be Nolan James

 

[ACamp1900]

Indiana Jones is one of my favorite fictional characters, Crusade and Raiders are two of my favorite films, so I was always intrigued by the Bethesda game, one thing kept me from it, I’ll get to that. I’m much like Dr. Jones in many ways, both scholars, both very much men of history, teachers,… admired by men, desired by women,… you know, the obvious stuff,… but we also share a massive phobia of snakes. Even in the films I have to turn away or leave during those scenes. I knew there would be massive bs with that in this game and that kept me from it for years,… I finally broke down this week and was pleasantly surprised there has been minimal bs thus far. But when you had to feed the pet snake, I had to have my daughter do it… now I’m at the big boss anaconda and even though my daughter hasn’t played this game I’m tasking her with beating that boss. I just can’t. The anxiety at the start makes my head pound, literally,… she’s gamer enough I have no doubt if I give her thirty minutes she’ll get it done.

It’s been a very impressive game thus far

 

[ACamp1900]

Also getting a steam deck Monday,… can I get my steam account and set all that up on the deck?? Or do I need to do that separate??

I think you can do it on the deck but you might just do it on a pc or on your phone (there's a steam app) beforehand to save yourself the headache and give yourself an easy experience on Monday

Just FYI, you don't need to pre-order it, just have EA Play.

I hope Premier is as good in real life as he is in this game.

First big time-sink on the PS2 emulator has been LotR: The Third Age

Turn-based combat, and kind of shallow… but I’m having a blast anyway. Generic characters that mimic the movie fellowship (loosely), and you’re following right behind the movie fellowship in the peripheral action.

I greatly enjoyed that they decided to throw those rules out the window and just threw you into the middle of the battle with the Balrog, though. Audio and music score on point for the epic battles.

Currently rounding up Uruk-hai in the gullies of Rohan. Have 20+ hours in and the save points tell me I’m about 30% done with the game. A decent amount of content, if not a bit repetitive

Oh yeah that game was fun

Okay so I popped in cfb and played a random game,… the very first thing was a monologue about being kept out of the playoff,… I hope if I’m notre dame in career mode and it’s 2055 I’m not still hearing that shit

"Cant forget 2025 when the Irish were kept out because Alabama's big win against 5-win Auburn"

 

[ACamp1900]

First game down, my first thought is the commentary, graphics, gameplay changed far less from last year to this than it did two years ago to last. The big thing is pre snap adjustments, especially on defense are completely new. I’ll need time to get used to that but I’ll assume it’ll be a welcome upgrade once I adjust. Other than that it felt like playing last year far more than last year felt like playing two years ago

 

[ACamp1900]

Okay so playing around with dynasty and my goodness,… every single player has a deal breaker now,… even 1 stars want A- pro potential etc,… and anyone above a 2 requires significant nil money, for example I’m a 1 star school and must get one three star to commit to me in my contract,… the only three star that’s even remotely interested wants 120 in NIL points and my ENTIRE NIL BUDGET is 350 points,……………. I can already see recruiting with a bad school is going to be nightmare fuel

 

[ACamp1900]

Yeah dynasty is a big addition,… lots of new stuff, it’s almost too much

Anyone know how to get fan made games on the steam deck?? These video guides are ridiculous
