Video Game General 7.0: Day Juan Ys: MoC June 9th & Wonderful 101 June 30th!

Never played it personally. That said, I have heard nothing but great things about it.

Gamestop continues fucking up. They are a non-essential business. Why the fuck are their stores still open?

Because their owner, everyone on their board and share holders are money grubbing fucks who donā€™t care.

Also, Nintendoā€™s online services are back up, apparently

First one is one of the best games this gen IMO.

Eeew why?

This looks like an isometric, Souls-like bullet hell.

And Iā€™m in.

Why make a 2.4ghz wireless for the PC Engine and the PC engine mini?

Because, its a great system with a decent library of games. Its heaven for 8 bit/16 bit shmups, it has a better street fighter 2 than the Genesis, and its CD library is rather good too.

All of that is absolutly true but doesnā€™t adress the fact that controller is complete dog shit.

What controller? The PC Engine controller?
Or you talking about 8bitdo?

Also this is just a prototype from FCC filings.

Hope you arenā€™t waiting on that preorder

This isnā€™t that long of a wait, imo and probably worth it in the long run.

the only thing I have preordered from amazon right now are a bunch of different manga volumes.

Played a little over an hour of Blasphemous. Itā€™s dope. Music, art style, environment, everything is :+1::metal::ok_hand:. But it definitely feels like it was made by a small team. Thereā€™s a whole lotta bugs. I straight up bugged out the first real boss so that he essentially became a giant punching bag.

Super excited to finish this while Iā€™m ā€œworkingā€ from home the next 6 weeks

PCE. I donā€™t see any reason to remake that piece of junk. Its incredibly uncomfortable to use.

Real? To me its like a NES controller.

Anyways what were looking at is a prototype and rumors of a release.

Seems to me that the controller have a curved backside for some ergonomics.

I think its cool as the Nes, Snes, Genesis, N64 and a few others are getting a wireless controller, its good that the PC Engine getting some love too.

The dpad placement is complete ass imo. Too low to the bottom of the controller and it feels so nuby and bleh.

Yeah I see your point.

But its still early and nothing officially announced yet.
Plus it give modders another thing to pad hack

The Brook Genesis/PC E adapter just got a firmware update for 6 button support on the PC E so thats a bonus.
