    NeoGeoKitsune reacted to Werewood in Yo what is some good food in your countries/cities?   
    So, what is some good food in my countries/cities?
     
    I live in China and Chinese people like to enjoy some "tea times" at some "tea restaurants".
    "Tea restaurants" offer not just tea but also good leisure food.
     
    One kind of Chinese food that is commonly used for accompanying Chinese tea at "tea restaurants" is:  Dim Sum (中式點心):
     

     
    Dim Sum (中式點心) is a nice food serving for either one person or more than one  persons.
    One typical serving is usually put in a special container called Chinese Steamer (蒸籠):
      * it consists of a base container and a lid cover
    Actually its design allows one to stack up as many Chinese Steamers (蒸籠) as one wants:
    * when one is enjoying the top one, the rest at the bottom still keeps warm
     
    Now, some Dim Sum (中式點心) I would like to introduce here:
     
    - Shrimp Dumplings (蝦餃)



    * flexible skin made of gluten-free flour, wrapping some shrimp piece, meat piece, and bamboo shoot that can neutralize the fishy taste of the shrimp
     
    - Barbecued Pork (叉燒)



    * using a fork-like too, grill some pork in a B.B.Q. style, adding some honey to bring out special chewing texture of the pork (most people like pork with good amount of fat, I myself prefer pork with less fat)
     
    - Turnip Cake (蘿蔔糕)



    * scrape some Turnip into very small silk-like pieces, adding some dried shrimp pieces, Chinese mushroom shattered pieces, and Chinese sausage cuts, usually put into steamers or fried pans (I like steamed ones more :)
     
    - Steamed Bun Stuffed with Juicy Pork (小籠包)



    * skin made of wheat flour wrapping inside there are pork and the more important soup, the soup is the soul of this Dim Sum (中式點心), one has to be careful when trying to swallowing the whole thing at the same time, because the soup inside the wrapping is hot~
    * his Dim Sum (中式點心) design has standard in the making - a fixed number of folds with the wrapping skin
     
    - Soya Bean Custard (豆腐花)



    * a dessert now!  Tofu made of Soya Bean, mixing with some Gypsum, can serve as some Chinese Jelly!
      one has to add some solid/liquid sugar when enjoying that, because merely the content there is not much sweet taste
     
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     
    Dim Sum (中式點心) has many many types and kinds, the ones I listed above (some are my favorites) are just a very small portion.
    Chinese culture pays big time attention to "shape" (形).  If you know about Chinese text and even Chinese Kung-Fu then you may have also already known, that many Chinese text and even Chinese Kung-Fu are based on "shapes" (形).
    As a result, some Chinese food like Dim Sum (中式點心) can be made in different "shapes" (形) too:
     

     
    Oh about the "tea times" at some "tea restaurants", the tea serving is commonly used to give a neutralization to the Dim Sum (中式點心) because most Dim Sum (中式點心) is full of fat meat and oils.
     
    Have you tried some Dim Sum (中式點心) in your China Town yet?

    Have you tried to set your PC Windows system locale to Japanese?
     
    Mine is set like that in order for me to run most Japanese games like Ougon Musou Kyoku CROSS:
     



     
    By the way, do you like/dislike this home-made Tail Concerto Battle?

    NeoGeoKitsune reacted to Sweetfire13 in Is the mugen running out of variety with the characters   
    This has been something that has been an ongoing thing seemingly forever, and it's not going to stop anytime soon either.
    If you think that variety is sucked out of mugen and all you can find are god and orochi edits, then you're not looking in the right places.

    -HUGE thanks to Margatroid for making the amazing Berserk Eva-01 animation for me. God bless you mate :)
    -Thanks to the NewageMugen community for their help over the last 2 years and their never ending feedback
    -Thanks to GLB for teaching me almost everything I know about mugen.
    -Thanks to Markpachi and Genesis for being my mugen bro's
    -Thanks to you for downloading this stage
    -This versions is 1.1 exclusive but I might go ahead and make another version for 1.0 which excludes the transition; this is all depending on the reception I get for this stage.
    -Expect an update soon for coding related fixes, I might not make any changes to the SFF since it takes forever to upload 35 MB with my slow internet
    -This stage should easily support other localcoords, just change the localcoord to whatever you want and the bounds should be something close to 100/-100 if you're aiming for widescreen.

    NeoGeoKitsune reacted to Alex S. in Capcom vs SNK PRO Orochi released by Chuchoryu 6/23/14   
    Sprites are still SNK sprites with a different palette; that doesn't make it CvS Pro.
    Anim 1 has no sprites.
    Also, I'm not sure he got data from the game to make this character and the two grooves*; he just took demongorne's edit of Warusaki's Dan (and I even helped him fixing the groove selection thing... more like I made it for him >:( ) and made the char. I'm not saying that using another character as a template is bad, but if he wants to call something in that style he should make it as accurate as possible. Or he/they (demongorne too) could have called it "Close-to-CvS-Pro" (but I guess it's difficult for them to think of this name).
    What's more, the Capcom and SNK grooves are actually the C and S grooves in Warusaki's Dan. So that's not accurate.
     
    I'm skeptical, I doubt he coded everything on his own. It plays too good to be coded from chuchoryu.
     
    I'm going to get hated for this comment, but I hope Jesuszilla makes a good CvS Pro char in the future.**
     
    * You don't need to tell me Orochi wasn't in CvS Pro.
    **You don't need to tell me Jesuszilla hasn't made a CvS Pro character, but I can tell you he can get data from both games and make accurate characters.

    A Visit to Video Game History Museum at GDC 2013 & 2014 (by a Taiwanese player, not me, Borewood2013....I did the Chinese-to-English translation for you)
     
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Video Game History Museum at GDC 2013

    This year of 2013 is my second time visiting the GDC (Game Developers Conference.
    When I am on the Moscone Center floor, that rest area from last year has become a mini-showroom!



    Video Game History Museum has been exhibited a few times during the Classic Gaming Expo or Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3).
    Every exhibition uses different themes and shows different items.



    This 2013 GDC consists of regions of a few themes - two (2) main video game console booths, an accessories booth, an arcade machine booth, and family games booth. The whole area of GDC is not huge, yet every exhibited item is not from half-assed collectors. Most visitors are gamers with quite a few years of gaming experience, so only the uncommon collections can attract their eyeballs.



    The first point of interest is the ATARI 2600 rest area. No need to repeat ATARI 2600 history here.
    The ATARI 2600 rest area decoration is full of the super classic wooden-framed T.V. set, on top of that there are some old black music records, sitting on the couch and looking at the ATARI 2600 games on the classic T.V. screen can really give me a 1970-1980s feel.



    Some ATARI 2600 video game strategy guides! "How to win at E.T. The Video Game"....come on, when you bought this ATARI 2600 game you were already a loser! How to win? LOL



    To the opposite side of the ATARI 2600 rest area, there is a small booth that displays ATARI related products.
    There are some never-published machine prototype, and some merit stands ATARI obtained.



    A never-published ATARI "Game Brain" machine! Most games it supports are games like "Pong!". It is said that this was a product that uses some recycled or reused chips that have never made it to the market.



    Two (2) ATARI CX-2000 prototype machines in different colors. It is said to be a cheaper version of a modified ATARI 2600.
    Again, it has never made it the the market.



    This keyboard was made for ATARI 7800. During the days when there was not much difference between PCs and video game machines, almost every video game machine wanted to add such support. Again, most have never made it to the market.



    I (the Taiwanese) don't have much love for ATARI. So I just browse ATARI area without details. Yet, I won't miss some very cool and rare ATARI items - the "Mind Link" accessory. "Mind Link" is an extra controller for ATARI 2600/7800. The player can wear it and use his/her brain waves to play games..........NOT! This accessory just tries to sense your forehead muscle and use the signal to act like a controller. In those times this was considered quite revolutionary! Yet, its fate was just as same as other unpublished products.



    A non-ATARI item in the ATARI area! A PSX "Gense Kyokou Seirei Kidoudan -Elemental Gearbolt" deluxe box! It includes the game CD and the golden GunCon laser gun, golden memory card. It is said that this deluxe box was manufactured for video contests usage only.
    So it may be the rarest PSX product to get because of its unbelievable price and extreme rarity.



    Another non-ATARI item in the ATARI area! An X-Band prototype and its keyboard. X-Band was used for online gaming when there was only telephone modems. Nintendo SFC/SNES and Sega MD/Genesis also had some X-Band support. Sega Saturn SS online feature also made use of X-Band. Oh that Sega MD/Genesis prototype was made for online chat only and its publishing was cancelled.



    Speaking of Sega, I (the Taiwanese) reach the Sega area! Start with a small booth.



    Most items in this small booth have already been made it to the market.
    Only a very few rarity like the "Twin Stick" for "Virtual-On". The "Twin Stick" is not uncommon in Japan or Taiwan, yet, it is quite uncommon to most Europeans and Americans.



    In this small booth there is a Sega MD/Genesis and Sega CD development station.



    "Treamcast" is an unlicensed made-in-China Dreamcast+LCD monitor-in-one product. The idea was probably borrowed from PSOne.
    Like most other unlicensed modified Dreamcast machines, "Treamcast" was warned by Sega's legal action. Thus, not many "Treamcast" were going to the market. Dreamcast collectors might see it as a rare collection item.



    Next, a Sega CDX - a combination of Sega MD/Genesis and Sega CD/normal CD player. What an ambitious product in those times!
    I (the Taiwanese) bet this thing can cost a lot these days.



    Now the legendary Sega machine in mystery! The Sega Neptune! In those times Sega used planet names for product code names.
    "Mars" was intended for Sega MD/Genesis' hardware expansion 32X. "Saturn" was used for the nowadays' Sega Saturn SS.
    And this "Neptune" was intended for a fusion of Sega MD/Genesis and 32X. Unfortunately the result of 32X was not good and at the same time Sega Saturn SS was already published to the market, the "Neptune" project had been halted!
    Now this particular Sega Neptune in this small booth.....is it a real working machine prototype, or just an empty case? Just wondering......



    Next to the small booth there is an accessories section. Some Sega stuff and some Atari stuff.



    Old-style cardboard paper boxed game cartridges.
    Some paper stand of "Sonic Adventure DX" and "Power Stone".
    A "Sonic 3" T-shirt too.



    A "NiGHTS into Dreams" cloth-made item.......not sure whether it is a T-shirt or a poster...



    An UK Arsenal soccer T-shirt with a Dreamcast pattern! During the years of 1999-2001 Sega was UK Arsenal's main sponsor.



    A golden "Virtua Fighter" sweat shirt! This was a game contest prize when Sega Saturn SS was firstly made it to the market.



    Some more game related gift items and products for promotion purpose.



    Some "Sonic" badges and some game cartridges prototype.



    A "Propeller Arena" game CD for Dreamcast! It was an unfortunate product because at times of its completion, the 911 incident happened and this plane-vs-plane shooting game release had been cancelled! Wonder whether it will see the light by XBLA/PSN or not?



    A "Virtua Racing" game cartridge prototype! This is the only one making use of SVP chip to achieve 3D effect for Sega MD/Genesis.



    Some strange-looking accessories here. A "Pico" for chidren learning, a "Pods" toy that senses lights and sounds, and even a special box for keeping game controllers. The last one are an infrared red light sensor, and an "Activator" that made use of body movement control idea, which was published prior to nowadays' Kinect. The idea and technology in those times were okay, yet the application level was having some root issues......



    A Dreamcast bag, a "Space Channel 5" lunch box, and a "Sonic" Party banner here.



    Some early game badges, pins, and stickers here.



    An "IR 7000" communicator! It is said to be an advanced computer and low-level PDA at the same time. It has a calculator, phone book list, and an infrared red light communicator for data transfer of text-only chat and simple versus games.
    Yet, this "IR 7000" communicator was just a product Sega bought from Casio. You know Casio has been producing many similar handheld products.



    Then here is a very cool Sega "Saturn Training Materials" booklet! And some video tapes too!
    I (the Taiwanese) take a brief look at some pages but I don't really understand much because it is so technical!



    A "Samba de Amigo" musical controller! On top of it there are a couple of 1980s' 7-eleven frozen slush cups with Sega pattern.
    It is kind of amazing to know that even some old cups like those can be kept for about 30 years.



    Sega Master System SMS' sports pad and 3D glasses here.



    Some Atari pins here. Americans seem to like pins very much. Pins keeps to be the most common gift in GDC. Many visitors' back-packs have pins like these.



    More pins and other promotional gifts.



    There are some particular video game machines besides the side pillars of this area.
    A "Puppy Pong" machine.........it is indeed just a "Pong!" machine inside. Adding some puppy decoration is for attract children.



    A "Dr. Pong"? For doctors only?



    Manufactured by Fuji, the "CX-1" combines a Dreamcast, a keyboard, a "Dream Eye" camera, a T.V. monitor and it can load Dreamcast games as well as be used as an online communication platform. This product does gives a futuristic feel in those times.



    Does the back of the "CX-1" look like an alien or "Sonic"?



    Besides the "CX-1" there is a "HKT-01" which was used for Dreamcast development.



    A dissected Dreamcast joypad here.



    In the middle there is a Sega test-drive booth!



    To the Americans, Sega home consoles started with Sega Master System SMS. SG-1000, SG-1000II, and Sega Mark-3 have never made it to the USA market. Yet, Sega Master System SMS was still a modified Sega Mark-3.



    Sega Genesis - the machine that helped Sega a lot in locating its recognition in the USA, as well as the not-so-successful Sega-CD.
    Look, the Sega Genesis is showing the popular "Michael Jackson's Moonwalker" game.



    Actually I (the Taiwanese) quite like the Sega 32X. But it had some serious issues that might have brought much negative influence to Sega's home game console development.



    This "Sega Genesis 3" is not common in Taiwan.



    A Sega Saturn SS here. The US version of SS has a joypad that doesn't feel comfortable and a game CD case with not-so-admirable case design.



    Dreamcast and Game Gear GG are very common Sega game consoles. The outter designs of both don't have much difference.
    The litte bit uncommon one is the Sega Nomad! This is a portable Sega Genesis, and is about the same size of a Game Gear GG.
    The screen looks a bit better than that of a Game Gear GG. Yet it still suffers from some screen flickering and blurriness.
    Of course, it is pointless to compare it with today's standard.



    Like in the Atari area, some non-Sega item is placed in the Sega booths. A Bandai's "Vectrex" machine.
    This "Vectrex" machine supports vector-based games only. In those times 2D games couldn't do any vectors at all.
    so it made the "Vectrex" machine quite unique.



    Hey this "Vectrex" machine was made in Taiwan!



    The next area is the arcade machines area. I only pay attention to some particular machines there.



    An old "Donkey Kong" arcade machine! So old that its screen is all messed up.



    Sega Turbo!



    Look at the deluxe "Sega Turbo" driving interior!



    A very cool TRON arcade machine.



    Asteroids arcade machine. Although the photograph doesn't show, its use of screen after images and flood light is not found in even today's LCD monitor.



    On the other side there is a Sega Saturn SS test-drive arcade machine. But there is no TV monitor inside that.



    A Sega MD/Genesis test-drive arcade machine. This time there is no console inside that.



    Lastly, the Sega game theme area. Since all Sega game consoles are located in the previous booths, there is none in here.
    Rather, only a T.V. is put here to show some Sega advertisements.



    A table of many retro Sega magazines!




    A "Jet Set Radio" Sega poster on the wall!







    Video Game History Museum at GDC 2014

    Last year I (the Taiwanese) came across with the "Video Game History Museum" at GDC. This year the "Video Game History Museum" is still there!



    Last year the "Video Game History Museum" which about Atari and Sega. This year it is Nintendo's turn!



    Start from the display booth which shows Nintendo's early products.



    Before the wide popularity of the video games, Nintendo was already existing. During those times Nintendo started with Hanafuda/Hanakaruta, and then expanded its business with a variety of playing cards, props, and toys.
    This item here is a Roulette made in 1970 and it was aimed to the USA market.



    A unique mini-Roulette. It has the Las Vegas TV station KVVU/5 label. It might be Las Vegas' related promotional gift.



    In the year of 1967, Nintendo published a baseball pitching machine called "Slugger Mate". It was also aimed to the USA market.



    A Nintendo toy set in the same year of 1967! "Ultra Hand" was quite popular in those times. It is said that there was a record-breaking sales (more than 1,000,000 pieces sold).



    Then, Nintendo's video gaming business began! The 8-bit Famicom wasn't the first Nintendo's video game console.
    The "Color TV-Game 6" published in the year of 1977 was the first one!



    There was also a deluxe version called "Color TV-Game 15". In contrast to "Color TV-Game 6", "Color TV-Game 15" supported many more games. The controllers could be separated from the main machine body. Yet, it is said that both machines had the same output power, and both had the same number of games, just that some games were hidden in "Color TV-Game 6", while "Color TV-Game 15" showed all the games. The differences in prices and publish dates were also intended. Businessmen are generally sly!
    Game contents were mainly based on "Pong!". They even called "1-player" and "2-player" with the same game, as two (2) different games!



    The third in the "Color TV-Game" series was called "Racing 112". The look of it highly suggests it was a racing game machine.
    What did the number 112 mean? Were there 112 different racing games? Not! In fact it means there were 112 different speeds, road widths, and road obstacles, as well as number of players. Those switches could result in 112 different combinations, yet the game available was only one (1).



    The fourth in the "Color TV-Game" series was called "ブロック崩し". It is believed to be a game like nowadays' Arkanoid by Taito.
    Perhaps the previous products was using exaggerated number like 112, this "ブロック崩し" didn't have any number label.



    The first three (3) in the "Color TV-Game" series were co-operation projects with Mitsubishi. "ブロック崩し" was the first product developed solely by Nintendo. The shape and design were done by Miyamoto Shigeru, the "Mario's Father".
    The last in the "Color TV-Game" series was the "Computer TV Game" machine. That machine was about Reversi/Othello chess game.
    It was so rare that even in GDC here is no sign of it.



    This red T.V. set item has no description. Just with a Nintendo label near its top.
    After some research, I (the Taiwanese) got to know this has been used in video game stores for promotion purpose. The slot below the screen can be plugged in with a game cartridge.........NOT! That is a VCD slot actually! This red T.V. set item is believed to be a product during the Nintendo 64 age.



    Another item without description! This one looks like a Nintendo Entertainment System NES. The "AVS" label might suggests the NES' prototype "Advanced Video System"? Still incorrect. After another research, I (the Taiwanese) got to know this item belongs to RetroZone, which is a shop specializing in video game modifications. This particular one was RetroZone's HDMI version of NES.
    Just wondering why this kind of unofficial new hardware is put in GDC here.......?_?



    The next display booth shows "Super Mario Bros.", "Duck Hunt", "Ice Climber",...etc....nothing special.....



    Then I (the Taiwanese) look closely......there is a "Paid/Thank You" label on these boxes. Something not normal.
    The hint is given by the big white label that says "Nintendo v. Magnavox" and some unknown code. What does it mean?
    The answer is, these were the evidence Magnavox used when Magnavox had some lawsuit with Nintendo!
    About that lawsuit result, Nintendo was the loser and Magnavox was the winner. I (the Taiwanese) don't understand those legal English terms, so I am not able to tell you about what their lawsuit was about (*run away*).



    This is the classic Mother 2 (EarthBound in USA) RPG game box. In the second-hand market it has high value. In Japan the local version outnumbered the USA version. It then also had Gameboy Advance GBA version, later on even Wii Virtual Console had it too.
    As a result, the price was not increasingly high in Japan. Yet, in USA, not only there was no GBA version, but also there was no Wii VC version as well. For long Americans could play the English version only on their Super Nintendo SNES. With extra large packaging and included strategy guide, this English version quickly became American SNES players' wanted gem. A second-hand EarthBound in good condition can cost up to US$450 and even more! By the way, EarthBound was finally ported to Wii U in the year of 2013.



    Now here it comes a never-been-seen item. It has a "QSound" label. Might it suggest some similar technology used in Capcom CPS boards? That pair of speakers and included game controller might suggest "QSound" was once used on both Sega MD/Genesis and NES.



    That "QSound" accessory needs a huge "QSound" main machine. So huge like an XBOX One?



    Look closely at the audio hole on top of the game cartridges. My guess is, it has to be connected to the game controller set, and then combine with a T.V. set speakers to create some 3D Premium Surround Sound effect. Since this product has never been made it to the market, the actual feature and usage are unknown.



    The next Nintendo display booth. Let's see what treasure I (the Taiwanese) can find.



    Everybody knows of the most famous 8-bit Famicom (Family Computer) system. Nowadays players outside Japan can get a second-hand one without major problem.

    (The 8-bit Famicom is my favorite video game console! - by Borewood2013, not by the Taiwanese)



    Famicom Disk System (FDS), the disk system for the Famicom. It was intended to try to solve ROM game cartridge memory issue. Out of expectation the disk memory capacity lost to that of ROM. Games like "The Legend of Zelda" and "Castlevania" were in forms of game cartridge when sold to the overseas, and later on in Japan too.



    Long before Virtual Boy and 3DS, Famicom already made use of 3D technology. Video gaming industry began 3D technology challenge in its early times. Moreover, this kind of challenge repeated every one (1) to two (2) eras. The challenge during the 2009-2012 eras was said to be a total failure. This Famicom "3D System" was sold in Japan only. It made use of shutter-type 3D glasses. Only seven (7) games were available. When ported to the USA, they replaced the shutter-type way with a even worse red-blue 3D glasses.



    During the Nintendo 64 times, another disk system called "64DD" was published. It is said that it was intended to try to solve the ROM game cartridge memory issue like in the Famicom case. Nonetheless, "64DD" development was full of obstacles. Since the year of 1996 the publish date was delayed to the year of 1999. The timing was wrong and players didn't care much anymore. The networking accessory "RANDNET" service died with the short life of "64DD" as a predictable result.



    Again some classic FC/NES games. Spot the point of interest yet?



    The point of interest indeed is the golden "Nintendo World Championship 1990" game cartridge!
    The game content was about "Nintendo World Championship 1990" games -- some "Super Mario Bros.", some "Rad Racer", and some "Tetris".
    The players have to get the highest scores within a time limit. After the games, this golden game cartridge was given to the winner.
    Only ninety (90) such golden game cartridges were manufactured. Later on Nintendo made 26 even more rare ones, for the Nintendo Power magazines. For now this might be the rarest FC/NES game game cartridge and its second-hand value can be estimated up to US$10,000!



    Here comes the USA version of Famicom, the commonly known NES! It includes a laser gun and "Super Mario Bros." plus "Duck Hunt".



    Some NES accessories here.



    "I love the Power Glove, it's so BAD~"



    Now some testing NES game cartridges used in Nintendo authorized repair centers.



    "World Class Service Binders"



    A NES test station here.



    Now some testing SNES game cartridges used in Nintendo authorized repair centers.



    Shining Nintendo 64 board! There are a couple of Super Mario drinks, and a Princess Peach bathing lotion!



    See the golden "Punch-Out!!"? It seems Nintendo was fond of using golden coating!
    This golden "Punch-Out!!" was also used as some Nintendo contest prize. For this one only 10,000 pieces were manufactured.



    That upper binder is apparently holding game strategy maps. And this binder was used by phone-in-game-helpdesk staffs. If a kid called a helpdesk staff, the staff got an answer for the kid from the binder!



    Some usual Nintendo Power magazines and some early many-in-one strategy guides.



    This one might be NES' internal circuits diagram.



    A SFC/SNES disk machine and its instruction manual. Taiwanese players shouldn't be unfamiliar with a SFC/SNES disk machine.
    Yet this one is not of a common type in Taiwan. This should be a "Multi Game Hunter" by Hong Kong people.



    A StarFox T-shirt and Mario Paint cap.



    FC + FDS = Twin Famicom
    It was made by Sharp.



    A later model of Twin Famicom. The design looks different and the game controllers were given auto button function.



    "The Legend of Zelda" board game!



    "Donkey Kong" board game!



    "Nintendo Demo Vision", one kind of GameBoy development platform. It has the ability to output GameBoy to a T.V. set or a projector.
    On top of it there is a GameCube sponge toy.



    More official documents here. Some of them are quite special.



    This document looks like the talk cheat sheet for the Robotic Operating Buddy (R.O.B.) robot, and it gives the robot hints about movement instruction when it is talking.



    The next document is even more special! That is the SFC/SNES CD-ROM confidential document! Not the one to be co-operated with Sony, but the one with Philips, right after breaking up with Sony! Of course the SFC/SNES CD-ROM ending was unknown.
    The CD-i tragedy is another story......



    A Nintendo knitting device!? It is not hard to imagine that, using Famicom to draw some pattern on screen, then send to the very device and knitting can be done right away! What a cool idea! Unfortunately the end product has never see the light. It pointed out that Nintendo should have had focused on video gaming only. Too many expansions would only bring failures.



    Some advertisement materials for the aforementioned NES prototype AVS. And some Nintendo badges too.



    A GameBoy Advance display.



    A dissected GameBoy Color here.



    "Famicom Box", made specially for some motel usage. It includes many games inside for the players to choose from.
    The name is called "Famicom" yet NES controllers and laser gun are connected to the main unit.



    The Robotic Operating Buddy (R.O.B.) robot. Under it there are several games for test-drive purpose.
    The Nintendo M8 Demo Unit has the wrong "M82" label.



    Now the assorted classic video game consoles booth. The left one showing "Super Mario Bros." is the Nintendo M82 Demo Unit. The one besides the R.O.B. robot is the Nintendo M8 Demo Unit.



    A Game Boy test-drive booth does looks like a Game Boy.



    The next one is the red-devil Virtual Boy!



    A comfortable SNES test-drive area.



    Last area is the arcade machines area. This area is not limited to Nintendo. It consists of 1970s-1980s arcade machines mostly.
    But the machines are so old that some controllers are not working as expected.




    This marks the end of my (the Taiwanese's) visit to the Video Game History Museum at GDC 2014.
    I (the Taiwanese) look forward to the GDC 2015, in hope of seeing some more different Video Game History again!

    NeoGeoKitsune reacted to Laharl in Rance   
    new wip while Laharl is being sprited got all the sprites needed for this one its RANCE from the alicesoft series heres a screen of his stance
     

     
    also heres a video of his source gameplay I plan to spice it up a bit and speed it up but heres a basic idea
     

     
    I am making the one on the left the right is a boss mode which I may consider after regular is done.
     
    gameplay will be.
     
    - 3 button light,medium,heavy
    -2 to 3- button for assists and special things
    -combo pretty much like he does in this game but probably better and less broken :P
    -some special surprises against a large number of females upon his victory  against them. (you would understand if you knew his source from his rpg series of games)
     
    some info about rance
    ----------------------------
     
    Rance comes from the Rance Series by Alicesoft they are all visual novel style games but with ALOT of gameplay that it feels like a real rpg rather than a visual novel, they are H games meaning hentai and rance's personality is pretty much sleep with whatever pretty girl he sees by force if neccasary.. he is mostly an anti-hero in that he does good deeds but for the wrong motivations. regardless my char will only include subtle references to his perverted ways. Canonly he is one of the if not THE strongest chars in his universe he has slayn GOD for being an asshole.

    NeoGeoKitsune reacted to Ryon in Rank's and Grouping.   
    I havent been in WIP in a long time, but I'll check it out.
     
    also Does the rank matter that much to you? Its literally just a rank.
     
    The reason I don't wanna just give it out is because I feel people with a rank know more than people without ranks.
    If someone goes to you for help and you dont know how to help them, then what does that mean.
    You have a rank as a creator but don't know something basic maybe. or something complicated.
     
    understand?
