You guys remember Nesticle?

>>	Anonymous Sat Mar 7 01:38:12 2015 No.2275505 >>2275479 Never heard of it. First NES emulator I used was JNES, which was awful, then I switched to Nestopia, and haven't used anything else since.

>>	Anonymous Sat Mar 7 01:38:24 2015 No.2275507 nesticle would let you overclock the nes and remove all lag in megaman 3, rivercity ramsom, contra force. I don't know of any other emulator that let you do that.

>>2275514
I always played as the abortion.

>>2275479
Yes. It was my go-to NES emulator for years, from about 1997 to about 2010 or so until I got my DS, though I occasionally used Rew because fuck you, that's why.
NESDS is the best NES emulator I've ever used, ever, though.
>dat rewind feature
Turns everything into Braid.

Anyway, back to Nesticle: I still have a collection of midis that I converted from impulse tracker files that I converted from NSF files that I ripped from ROMS using Nesticle in the first place. I have several more impulse tracker files converted from SPC files I ripped using ZSNES. I'm a nerd, yes. I know.

>>	Anonymous Sat Mar 7 04:06:02 2015 No.2275704 >>2275686 >he actually played their games were they good?

Anonymous Sat Mar 7 04:22:18 2015 No.2275723

>>2275704
No. They were not. Not at all.
Noggin Knockers was a pong clone wherein the paddles were characters and the game itself played out almost like a cross between standard pong and a fighting game. One of the paddles/characters was an abortion. A literal abortion. His name, IIRC, was Foetus.

>>	Anonymous Sat Mar 7 04:30:52 2015 No.2275736 >>2275723 I wonder what those guys ended up working on later in life.

>>	Anonymous Sat Mar 7 04:45:05 2015 No.2275757 >>2275736 Ethan works for Ubisoft now. I dunno about the other guys. I only keep in touch with Brad, who was only tangentially related to Bloodlust, every now and again and that's only because he lives 35 minutes away from me.

>>	Anonymous Sat Mar 7 05:54:08 2015 No.2275836 >>2275779 That's what needs to come back more than anything else in gaming. Obscene rom hacks.

My friend introduced me to Nesticle. I guess it was the first time I ever saw emulation happening so I was amazed.

Never did I install it on my own computer though. I didn't enjoy NES games so much because in late 90's / early 00's there was enough processing power to play objectively better SNES games with ZSNES.

>>	Anonymous Sat Mar 7 06:34:23 2015 No.2275869 >>2275479 Yup. I remember that logo. I was always scared I'd have to explain it to my parents.

>>	Anonymous Sat Mar 7 07:50:21 2015 No.2275932 >>2275910 my first reaction to learning about emulation was very much like this, though I went for a commodore 64 emulator first. After that, it was on to NO$GB to try out that new "Pocket Monsters" game that hadn't hit the USA yet.

>>	Anonymous Sun Mar 8 13:53:38 2015 No.2278403 >>2275479 I told a programmer friend of mine to name is NES emulator PNES. He was not amused.

>>	Anonymous Sun Mar 8 16:46:21 2015 No.2278653 >>2275479 I remember all the fun I had with it on Windows 3.1 back in the 90s. I loved the look and feel it had compared to the more bland emulators of today. Congrats, OP, since seeing this thread put a smile on my face this day.
