Merzbow Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Did anyone back the ZX Spectrum Next? It looks like a really nice bit of kit, I'm a little too young to have much love the the Speccy but I'm still tempted to grab one during the next run.

Paid Members BigJag Posted February 29, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted February 29, 2020 (edited) Came across this cool mashup today. They've somehow combined the Hulk Hogan Sprite from WWF Superstars with Double Dragon. Now both games were made by the same company. Even then they've done a great job here. Hogans move set has been carried over into Double Dragon. How difficult would something like this be? A modded version that let's you play two players with the other characters out of WWF Superstars would be pretty impressive. Edited February 29, 2020 by BigJag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members BigJag Posted February 29, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted February 29, 2020 https://magggas.itch.io/double-dragon-reloaded-alternate Looks as if this is the modders page. He's been generous enough to allow anyone who's interested the ability to download the game. There's even a Battle Royal mod for WWF Superstars in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been a software developer for 20 years and wouldn’t have a clue how you’d go about doing that. It's on an engine called OpenBOR, it's most known for cool Streets of Rage mods where people have mashed up all different games. It's not too different to Mugen.

Paid Members BigJag Posted March 1, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted March 1, 2020 How easy is it to get up and running? I'd never heard of OpenBor before I came across this mod. I'm mostly familiar with MAME. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm mostly familiar with MAME. Most mods are self contained downloads, everything's included and you run it like any normal game just like the Double Dragon/WWF one posted above. If you mean using OpenBOR to make mods? I couldn't say, I've never tried that myself. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members DEF Posted March 6, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted March 6, 2020 Not sure if this qualifies as retro gaming but I hadn't played a Wii for at least ten years last weekend and had such a laugh I jumped on ebay and got one. It should arrive today. Fifty quid for a Wii with two controllers, steering wheel, Wii fit pad thingy w/ game, Mario Kart, Sonic and the Secret Rings, Carnival Mini Golf, Tiger Woods Golf 09, EA Grand Slam Tennis, F1 2009, Legend of the Guardians and the all important Wii Sports. I'm going to pick up a Guitar Hero from CEX tomorrow and a few games. Any recommendations? My daughter is the perfect age for this now and has been bugging me for months to get Mario Kart on something so I'm pretty psyched.

Paid Members Jazzy G Posted March 6, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted March 6, 2020 Mad World, No More Heroes, Muramasa. Mario Galaxy. They still release the Just Dance games on Wii. Your daughter might enjoy that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 If you want a Wii game that'll drive you mad playing it but to hysterics watching someone else, try Mercury Meltdown Revolution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Jazzy G Posted March 6, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted March 6, 2020 (edited) If you enjoy fighting games you owe it to yourself to find a copy of Tatsunoko Vs Capcom and hope it isn't too expensive. Theres a version of Okami, but the motion controls are terrible and there's no classic controller support, which is a shame. I just realised I own 4 copies of that game on various platforms. The Bit.Trip collection can be fun as well. The closest game to it I can think of is Vib Ribbon, but there are some other mini games packed on there as well. There are also some compilations. I don't think any of the Capcom Collections came out for it, but there's an SNK one with about 16 games. Wario Ware Smooth Moves. You and your daughter may enjoy Animal Crossing: Let's Go To The City. I still find it sad that the only "proper" Animal Crossing game on Wii U was Wild World through the virtual console. It's not that it's a bad game, but being able to use the game pad foranaging inventory etc while still being able to play the game on screen, or even somebody playing on the TV and another playing on game pad could have been great. Edited March 6, 2020 by jazzygeofferz More banging on about Animal Crossing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great shout! I’d forgotten how fun this is. God, I really need to set my Wii up again. People really overlook how many great games there are on that system. It’s often very unfairly dismissed.

HeavyT Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 My friend picked one up for light gun games. House of the Dead 1, 2 and theres another one but I cant remember the name. Worth it if you like that kind of thing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
