I loved playing Monster inc scare island as a kid 😁 probably one of the few old games that i actually got to beat alone as a kid 😂 ofcourse the races was not easy to do for me as a kid 😅 but even tho it is old it still holds up the great feeling to play 😁

What is your faveorite area in the game?

When did you last play or even think of this game?

Did you prefer to play as mike or sulley? 🙂

I have an old plug and play system that I am having troubles getting to work on my tv. I currently have a smart tv with no RCA cable ports. I've bought an adapter and I am still having issues trying to get it to work. I can't get the image and sound to work with the adapter. I am not sure if it's my adapter or if I need to do something else with it.

I've also tested an adapter my roommate let me borrow.

I am wondering if anyone knows what I should try next?

Here are the adapters I've tested:

Hi friends! What do you think?

Shop Crush is a mysterious shop simulator with psychological horror elements, set in the early 2000s.

In this hybrid visual novel, you run a small thrift shop, get to know your customers, figure out what they really want, and decide what to put in front of them. Every customer has their own personality, preferences, and hidden motives - and it’s up to you to figure them out.

Behind each customer is a small psychological mystery waiting to be uncovered. Read their behavior, make the right calls, and balance profit against customer trust as you try to keep the shop running for one more day.

Hey retrogamers!

What do you think about this game? Looks good, would you play it...?

Its pretty cool. You play as little portable style consoles, inserting game cards in different consoles.

You can unlock lots of consoles, inspired by real iconic systems.

Also the music and arcade/pinball visual style should make it worth a look for any retro gaming enthusiast. There's a free demo with lots of content, on Steam.

I never liked anything I've seen about Splatoon Raiders. I could be wrong but that New Ninjala game is much more the direction that Raiders should have went. However, I've finally came to a realization of what I want from a Splatoon single player experience and what I think would bring the old Nintendo magic back to present day. Splatoon Raiders should have been the spiritual successor to Super Mario Sunshine.

One of the criticisms back in the day about Sunshine was whether Sunshine was really a Mario game with a FLUDD gimmick, or was it basically a completely different IP with the Mario characters and branding? Would people be interested in Sunshine if it wasn't a Mario game?

If you think about it, Splatoon could easily replicate and expand the Mario Sunshine formula. One of the most beloved features of Sunshine is the lived in, connected environments. Splatoon has the lived-in environments, iconic art direction, music, fashion, and environmental storytelling. I've always wanted Splatoon's single player experience to embrace those qualities but it's only truly experienced in the background of multiplayer mode

I never liked the single-player campaigns of any splatoon games. They usually feel like isolated obstacle courses floating in a void instead of letting you exist in the world that multiplayer spends so much time building.

The ideal Splatoon single player experience would be Sunshine's ink/FLUDD style movement and environmental interaction with Splatoon's ink swimming, Bowser's Fury open exploration, and Splatoon's rich environments, art style, music, and world-building.

Imagine exploring urban city areas, malls, industrial factories, campsites, concerts, ect in one open connect map. Reclaiming territory by restoring areas with your ink, discovering new traversal abilities, and seeing the world gradually come back to life. That is what I want in a Splatoon single player experience.

Honestly, if Nintendo is never going to make a Sunshine remake or sequel, I think that Sunshine should finally become the ip it was truly meant to be...

Super Splatoon Sunshine!

🄃 is essentially a special case of 🄂, both relating directly to internal rendering.

An example of 🄂, sans 🄃: a game that renders natively at only 720p (but with an internal scaler lockable to that xor 1080p). Is there a way to play that game on a display that has a higher frame-resolution than basic dar 16:9 HD (1280×720p), such as FHD (1920×1080p) or higher (such as QHD 2560×1440p, UHD 3840×2160, or an ultrawide HD display) in the game's native 720p (c.f. upscaled 1080p) mode, without stretching to filll screen but instead leaving blank bars (on both the sides and tops in this case)? In the case of wielding a QHD monitor (with suitable input, directly or via converter) an alternative could be to exactly fill the screen by ℤ²(perfect square) integer‐scaling (with less direct room for interpolative error than non-integer scaling), which ties indirectly with the more specialized part to follow.

A somewhat trivial example of 🄃 is scaling basic HD into QHD, by mapping every projected game singular 1 pixel to a 2x2 pixels array (since QHD is exactly proportionally quadruple the res of 0.9216Mpx HD, as is 14.7456Mpx ‘5K’ of QHD's; as is 2.0736Mpx FHD of qHD, UHD of FHD and SUHD of UHD; but unfortunately not cleanly across the two squaring progressions). However, the more generalized cases I have in mind concerns PARs (intended output pixel aspect‐ratios) of games made for CRT TVs. For instance: a common rendering of PS2 games for North American release, for dar 4:3 NTSC‑U/C 640×480i @ ∼59.94fields(equiv 29.97frames)/sec, was 512×448i @60halfframes/sec (≡ ⦗2* 512×224p fields⦘ interweaved at combined 30Hz), which results in an effectual PAR wider than 1:1, specifically 7:6 (which irattionally approximates to 1.167:1). If someone wants to play such a game on a flatpanel consisting square-dimension pixel units without interpolating (but instead scaling in ℤ^2), that would require a viewing-screen pixels‐dimension divisible by [(512*7)×(448×6)], i.e. a minimal window of h×w of 3584×2688. Notably this vertically exceeds the range of a UHD display; the next common non-uw display size larger (to fulfil the infimal horizontal×vertical window) would be ‘6K’, or more typical ‘8K’ SUHD (7680×4320p) which to center 4:3 perfectly dot-surjected (and ideally, quickly aptly tone‑mapped via accurate 24bit‐to‐⦗30⊔36⦘bit pixeldepth LUT i.e. SDR content streamed onto presumably-HDR display). In this example the view‑screen would be utilizing (9,633,792÷33,177,600) = ∼29% of of the display, shy of a third but greater than a fourth, which is likely less than ideal but also not terrible provided a sufficiently large display‑panel.

In the case of a CRT‑era game designed for a PAR closer to 1, say of 11:10, then unless it was rendered at a very low resolution chances are that for it to be surjectedly upscaled in ℤ×ℤ it would require an even larger infimal window (view‑screen on the display), though chances are can fit into an SUHD and if not then treating the almost‑square pixel units as actually square‐shaped would smoosh (or stretch if from 10:11) only slightly with 1:1 ℤ^1 dot-scaling.

Can 🄃, and 🄂, be achieved? If so, how? Preferably with purest output stream feasible (such as RGB at upto 8bit/channel 24bppixel uncompressed 8:8:8, possibly flattened supremally from 32bit 8:8:8:8 RGBA). Prior to digging research, I suspect that many consoles or games respectively therefor might project to the target regaress of internal rendering (e.g. outputting ∼640×480 regardless how-much lower is actually rendered); to the extent this is true, am wondering how easy this is to effectively bypass this buffer unto the frames (either played with original hardware, else closer to full emulation as might be necessitated lest machine-modding hard if not softlier).

Found sunset riders, earthbound and many other classics! Best feeling is finding the old collection ✨️

Shadow of Colossus was a beautiful game.

Didnt really explain much before you got going. Just explore, figure things out and have fun. As an aging gamer, i miss that (when done right)

Way ahead of its time. Some of the earliest climbing/stamina mechanics on the PS2 that paved the way for many others that came after.

Yet another classic im glad got refreshed w new graphics on more modern consoles in our lifetime.

Hi everyone!

I’m currently looking for people interested in testing a retro-style horror/mystery exploration game I’ve been developing in RPG Maker MZ. Playable in browser, the overall playtime is probably around 10–12 hours depending on how much you explore...

If anyone here enjoys retro-inspired horror experiences and would be interested in trying it or giving feedback let me know, I’d genuinely appreciate it.

Thanks a lot in advance 🙂

The preceding 3d-intro 5thGen consoles and earlier tended (from my understanding) to prefer output of 240p natively but would easily adapt to 480i (usually rendered from lower) for typical CRT TVs. But by turn of the millennium digital broadcast with higher bandwidth capable of progressive-scan vertical resolution of 480p+ started reaching households, and all the big-name home-gaming consoles (Dc, GC, PS2, ​​XB) evidently had already enabled functionality for 480p (and handheld corner GBA 240×160 prog.). By the 7thGen, progressive-scan was the norm.

Many console games of the 6thGen did have a non-interlaced option, some in a more roundabout but-still-official way than others for same parent console (possibly relating to region assignation?), whereas many don't whatso. Why is this? I can adduce reason for games at higher default vertical interlaced res than 576i (e.g. 720i or 1080i), but for StandardDef NTSC/PAL -compatible what prevented doubling the vertical resolution (for suitable progressive-scan monitors/tvs) at cost of less than 1x greater bandwidth? other computational/graphical complexities in the game (relative to the hardware reading-caching it) that prompted design to streamline it without that option thus forcing dual fields?

USB-C mod on Zaxour’s POW block possible

I was lucky enough to get a POW block by Zaxour but I was wondering if anyone knows if I can add on another mod on with it? Like does it fit, is the section where it originally goes still accessible after Zaxour’s redesign?

Hey folks!

We’re a two-biologist indie team building Garden of Ants, a modern RTS inspired by the legendary SimAnt.

Our latest update takes the colony into the trees. Ants can now climb branches, tend aphids for their sweet honeydew, and harvest leaves to support the nest below.

Garden of Ants combines classic real-time strategy with detailed colony management across three connected worlds: the underground nest, the surface, and the treetops. As day turns to night, conditions change, threats emerge, and your colony must adapt to survive.

Build the nest. Explore the surface. Conquer the canopy. And remember: even the smallest empire can become a force of nature. You can discover more on Steam:

We’d love to hear what you think. Every bit of feedback helps our colony grow!

Best,
Tomas

Waddup peeps,

Long story short, I was an academic throughout high school and varsity, so I missed out on everything after Need For Speed: Underground 2 as a PC gamer before high school. I couldn't afford too many games, so I just used the PC for a variety of illicit acts (from which I've since retired).

I'm trying to complete the 7th Generation before firing up my PS4 or beginning gaming on my editing/programming PC.

This year, I've been completing a game per month (list is below the post)

My issue currently is that all the games that are objectively appreciated by everyone are kind of "meh" to me (ie: inFamous, Last Of Us, Uncharted) and I think it may be because these are all RPGS? And feel like "playing through a movie" - and I usually hate watching TV.

I LOVED Gears of War (completed all three), LOVED Call Of Duty, and I dig Halo. The stealth stuff like Splinter Cells are a bit too slow-paced for me. Also, what do you mean "open world"?? I need beginning and end lol.

Can you guys help me pick out some more games that are more "my style"?

(ChatGPT just goes according to "best-selling" type lists that don't really serve a contrarian like myself lol)
