That’s actually pretty sweet.

That can cut both ways. I’m sure others have different physical disabilities that would make the use of a traditional setup more difficult.

Innovation is important, but one of the biggest problems with Nintendo’s constant controller shuffling is the negative impact on game preservation.

Yeah, I love Batman NES, but his post is going full edgelord.

Exactly.

Yeah, I even use it in the first power-up box on the stage. It would be nice if you could just tick a global setting for all the power-ups beyond the super mushroom.

No — you still have to upload a new level entirely.

I had no idea you could do it with a long tap! I keep dragging mushrooms into flowers to combine them (which also works, but is laborious).

This is exactly right. If a level takes less than five or six hours to put together, you haven’t play-tested it enough. And even then, you’re likely to miss things.

Don’t check out their Twitter feeds. Don’t check out their Twitter feeds. Don’t check 0u—

I’m getting to the age where I feel a bit hung over every morning whether or not I drank anything the night before.

I have a similar feeling with VR, but it isn’t fear so much as extreme detachment. On my free and lazy days, I like sacking out on the couch with the dog and cat and watching movies or playing games. But VR is inherently isolating. I feel like they’re cut off from me despite being right there, and it makes me not want…

Oh I agree. I’d love a Sonic maker! Just lamenting the quality of online gaming. 

I also love this game, and looking back I think it kind of laid the template for Devil May Cry. It wasn’t perfect, but it was a hell of a time.

The Dreamcast is uniquely challenging to get a good image out of on modern TVs, which is unfortunate and ironic considering the forward-thinking VGA connection.

It’s an especially weird assertion seeing as it was also released on GameCube and... well it didn’t sell millions.

Great list. This was such an exciting era for gaming — Sega was gleefully weird when it was on the ropes — and I’d love to visit the alternate universe where the Dreamcast survived to influence the next generation.

Because that won’t instantly devolve into people creating stages with no rings and a billion “hilarious” spike traps.

Ugh. I live in VA where that Gadsden Flag gets its own license plate.

Seems to me that anybody who watches the new release will actually save a few seconds.
