You thought the DC didn't have enough buttons? I'm a little surprised by this.

I miss mine too. The DVD drive took a shit and I was too young and dumb to order a new one.

>>2454070
Don't listen to >>2454081 or >>2456238. I used a bootable CD with a program called Ndure on it with a specific file for the firmware my Xbox was running. It tells you when to hotswap the drive, you then hit any key, it does it's stuff, and boom. Softmodded

Isn't that the plot to SMB2 though? That it's all Mario's dream?

Maybe I'm thinking of something else.....

>>2461397
You know, I can really see the money in this.

That's how I feel when I see my little brother just mosh old games, especially when I see him constantly spamming the fast forward button and ignoring text.

I'd complain about you guys causing me to download a bunch of old games if they didn't take up like 10mb each.

I'm not saying it's better, I'm saying it's kind of a weak argument to say something sucks because it's not an exact replica of something else.

No, I map buttons and navigate the program with the controller so I can have it hooked up to my TV without a bunch of cords all over.

>Buttons feel rough and non-glossy
God forbid your fingers stay on the button

>Terrible mushy and inaccurate d-pad
When and where?

>Unconfortable analog stick
I'm sorry you have baby hands

>Pales in comparison to it's Saturn predecessor
Oh no! Not something different!

>>2460859
Yeah, I know. I really only use it for the GUI.

>>2457610
How was it not expected?

>>2460646
>Controller was terrible
The controller was great. Idk wtf you are on about.

>the games
>the fact I could get any game I wanted for the cost of a blank disc
>the homebrew scene

What's NOT to love about it?

>>2460634
Can't wait. Zsnes is my shit.

>>2460580
Exactly.

>>2457589
>It made QTE popular.

I'm pretty sure Dragon's Lair was pretty popular, bruh.

Am I the only one who thought all those little things you could do are what made the game?

Let's face it, the main reasons N64 is often considered as the second coming of Jesus is because it was the first 3D Nintendo consle, the huge advertisng campaign it got, and the fact it was the first Nintendo console for many people. Had the Gamecube or the Wii been the first 3D Nintendo console it would have gotten the same treatment the N64 did

>How would you fix X if you were in charge of a remake
You don't. That's the fucking point of a remake. To capture the original feel of the game while only updating graphics, sound, and game breaking bugs.


Also, Final Fantasy 8 was terrible.

>>2460424
Why not play Myst then? I don't imagine it's so big you can't download it.

>>2460450
>Because SMB3 was that good

Wasn't SMB3 heavily publicized by that movie The Wizard or whatever?


In fact, wasn't that entire movie a big "Check out what Nintendo gots" marketting scheme?

>>2460370
No, I think they really think you literally can't do anything you don't explicitly want to do.

>>2460203
The fact that people were repeatedly getting busted with drugs in and around the arcade caused them to lose their business license or whatever forcing them to close.

>Mexican border state
Exactly. Cops don't give a shit about some kids getting high when there's real crooks to bust.
