Anyone anything good at the moment? I'm still on my PSP kick playing MGS Peace Walker which I think is going to keep me busy for a while. Especially as I'm not great at it ๐Ÿ˜ถ.

So happy I picked up a PSP again though. Such a fun console. I maaayyy have also bought Silent Hill Origins. I think that's probably all the games that I definitely want for it, but any suggestions of hidden gems that I should look out for?

@jaykass niiice! It's not a series I know much about, but I understand it's a classic!

@Bogusmeatfactory pretty different, but good variety! I think I've played a little of the first legacy of Kain, but really not much. Maybe I should look into it. What's making it enjoyable?

@jaykass I think there's something special about working through a series in order. Seeing that progression and how it grew over time. Pretty cool

Forgot to post this yesterday. Currently working through the Pikuma NES dev course, progress is coming along well. I know enough to create individual backgrounds now, which is neat ๐Ÿ‘

@dinosaurgerms so cool! Looks like it's going well! ๐Ÿ˜

Three new pickups at today's car boot sale. Three that I've been trying to get hold of for some time ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿฅฐ

What about, handheld console that uses floppy discs?

Hundstrasse,
@Hundstrasse@retro.pizza avatar

@kiwired yes! And it's pretty cute! I was kind of thinking more like those early digital cameras that took a floppy disc... But a handheld. I want to feel the whirring of a drive reading!

@kawaiizenbo tbh that's what made me think of it. Like the PSP is an optical media handheld, so why not a floppy disc handheld?!? ๐Ÿ˜

LB sadly I'm not going to be able to pick up FM radio from Slovenia, but I think this is damn cool

people, how do you feel about the slidey thumbstick? ๐ŸŽฎ

Hundstrasse,
@Hundstrasse@retro.pizza avatar

@rootcompute oh no ๐Ÿ˜• that sucks ๐Ÿ˜ž.

Hundstrasse,
@Hundstrasse@retro.pizza avatar

@rootcompute yeah, I was going to ask if it's possible to repair. I've never tried any PSP maintenance.

Steam Deck is a great emulation system though! ๐Ÿ˜

@rootcompute recipe for my signature move of ".. oh, I'll just open this up and...* TTWAANNGGG!! .. bits everywhere ๐Ÿ˜…

Try to remember to post pics if you ever get around to it, would like to know what's going on in there.

@buru5 on-screen gamepads are cursed

@Hundstrasse@retro.pizza avatar

@orbitalmartian but... But... It's the only handheld with an optical drive!! ๐Ÿ˜ฑ

Hundstrasse,
@Hundstrasse@retro.pizza avatar

@ch1pset I think the 'resistance' feels off. Could be my fine motor control, but the force to move it away from the mid position tends to just push it to a limit when I use it ๐Ÿ˜…

Hundstrasse,
@Hundstrasse@retro.pizza avatar

@semiramis eeeep! I'm really worried about how many people have mentioned drift now ๐Ÿ˜ณ

I often think about the donkey sitting alone in the club from the 'Lone Digger' MV

Do you think the limited edition MGS Peace Walker Walkman is still available? ๐Ÿ˜ถ

Hundstrasse,
@Hundstrasse@retro.pizza avatar

Oh yeah, I've moved onto Peace Walker now

Truxton II (1992)

Gif from "Truxton II" (title screen, 2D pixel art). A giant jet of fire is seen spewing out of a crater on a planet; the "Truxon II" is superimposed dramatically on top of the jet of fire.
Gif from "Truxton II" (gameplay, 2D pixel art, top-down vertically-oriented perspective). A player-controlled spaceship flies rapidly across a large, metallic surface while shooting at enemy ships and evading their fire.

@dinosaurgerms I was about to be all like "Dang, that planet is full of fire!"... And then I realised that OUR planet is full of fire.

It's a title screen that works on multiple levels... ๐Ÿ˜ถ

@dinosaurgerms I know so little about top down shootemups it's embarrassing! (Except for once falling in love with a Capcom car cocktail unit of one of the 1940 something games) Like, is there lore to this? Is there a plot? The bosses are so elaborate I kind of feel like someone must've spent a long time thinking about it all.
