Seriously, Whenever I play a sonic game, whether its Adventure Battle 2 or the first few, I end up hitting a wall somewhere and ditz about feeling like I'm being ripped off because where's the fast when I keep hitting walls? I wanna go fast, not platform.

I mean I've played it, but never for enough to get past the learning stage of "AAAAA TOOO FAST WAT DO WAT DO AAAA NOW I'VE HIT A WALL AND I'M NOT GOING FAST ENOUGH TO GO ANYWHERE AAAAAAAA" I usually rage quit quite soon after that.

@redenchilada I need to build up a larger collection of systems. I mean all my Nintendo stuff is nice and all, but I've never really sat down and played Sonic, like, ever. My childhood was so deprived.
-
@redenchilada oh if only. i would say I should put a Dreamcast in there, but let's be honest, the Dreamcast should just stay as it is. I wish I had one...
-
@redenchilada or, even better, a Saturn. Then I can giggle at my own stupidity.
-
@yodelerty *throws water*
-
@redenchilada ooo now there's an idea.
-
@scribus but yeah, the most likely course of action is cleaning, then painting. If it turns out really well, I might transfer the working parts back into their original home and use the pretty PS1 as my main gamer, then display the pristine case somewhere because its pretty in a different way.
-
@thewaifutyphoon but that's so boring. The Pi is so small it would just fit in there and rattle around. Might as well just use the case i have that's designed for it and keeps it much safer.
-
@scribus if only I could find a way to shove a PS3 into a PS1... now THAT would be sweet.
-
@scribus to be honest, i'm probably going to do a huge cleanup job of the toilet ps1 and then paint it all pretty with ponies. It still won't work, but it will be nice to look at, i guess.
-
@scribus ehh, maybe. What I really did was gut it and put the broken PS1 into it. The reason was simple: I already had the dead PS1 beforehand, but it was contained inside an absolutely /pristine/ case. The one that works perfectly looks like it was left in a toilet overnight. I swapped the main boards so the outside matched the inside. And now i have a pristine condition PlayStation sitting on my shelf beside a SNES.
-
Welp. I now have 3 PlayStations. One doesn't work, one was modchipped when I bought it and works perfectly in all aspects, and one really only works as an audio CD player. Which, frankly, it is very good at. All in all, I have a PlayStation in my basement for games, and one in my bedroom for music. And one sitting in a corner gathering dust because it dun borked.

Happy Friday the thirteenth! Hope you don't all die.

All work and no yiff makes RDN a dull website.
-
@thisisntgonnabegood I should download that. I just bought a chipped PS1 that would play the burned game...
-
@thelastgherkin It is awkward. Which is why if you take it seriously, it becomes exceedingly weird. :P
-
@nerthos @thelastgherkin i love you.
-
Oh. My god.
"an excellent website"
Who did this. What beautiful, beautiful person did this. -
Sweet. the perfectly working PS1 that I got today actually had a modchip preinstalled. Homebrew gaming, here I come!
-
@mrmattimation's recent run in with a bolt of lightning is making me actually kind of scared now that theres a thunderstorm going on outside...
