Maybe I’m just becoming jaded with age, but my knee-jerk response to seeing the meltdown on Twitter this morning was “okay, just wait a few weeks and order one...”. That was when I realized I’m becoming an adult and immediately hated myself.

Dang, I didn’t realize there was that much demand for this. It’s beautiful yes, but expensive, just to use carts whose internal save batteries are probably expired by now (or maybe I just have a crappy copy of Golden Sun: The Lost Age). I mean I’m perfectly happy with my GBA SP, but damn those sleek looking things…

Yes, the lead engineer (he goes by Kevtris on forums) reverse engineers the old systems. So, like the GBA games in this new system will not use the BIOS files some emulators make you find on your own. And you supply your own official game cartridges so you aren’t downloading or using ROM files.

The heat death of the universe will come out before Star Citizen at this rate. 

Joke about keycards, masterful

So it’ll come out before Star Citizen does is what I’m getting.

The Two Guys from Andromeda were my heroes as a kid.

Looks like the humor is intact

Point and click lover here, Roger Wilco and the Time Rippers is my all time fave... Though I also enjoyed the rest of the SQ series, and ST Judgement Rites, and 25th Anniv, The DIG. I have high hopes for this... but the 3d bothers me. I grow to like the SQ 6 Aesthetic, but I think this is a little weird.

always bugs me when I put the number of years since the game was kickstarted into the headline and forget that development actually started in 2010-11.

This statement from SE tells us less than nothing. I still expect 2023 for Part 2 at the earliest. Streamlined development has never been SquareEnix’s forte even back when they were still Square and Enix.

I need to stop being bitter over it, but, I see it: I recognize their passion and devotion to this project. Now, if they were to uphold such endeavors for a FF6 “Remake” Square may...just may successfully eliminate my cynicism towards them.

“In war, everyone loses.  But maybe you can lose the least.”

Defcon was literally so scary it changed how people perceived the threat of Nuclear war

Pulling you out of the grays just to tell you how wrong you are.

A different take:

TwinGalaxies doesn’t allow emulators, and the evidence that it was emulated is pretty clear. I doubt they reinstate. Guinness reinstating was just a way to cheaply settle lawsuits over something that doesn’t actually matter to them.

That’s what’s bugging me about this. Guinness seems to be undervaluing the actual emulator and prioritizing the eyewitness testimony, which from what I know is basically the exact opposite of what they should be doing

Growing up in Mexico, I always thought that she was the founder’s aunt or something like that. It was marketed as “los de la nagrita” (From the little black lady).

It’s, weirdly, a good sign, because of separation of church and state. The ad department and editorial department should never influence each other.
