Here is a fantastic video on the subject.

Yep. Most of the games on the Game Gear were Master System games.

IMSA kid?

Can confirm.

No mention of the Dwemer or Falmer, eh?I know they aren’t playable races, but they are pretty important lore-wise.

Same. I am obsessed with their peanut butter cups and the peanut and cornflake bars.

And Saint Attila raised the hand grenade up on high, saying, ‘O Lord, bless this thy hand grenade, that with it thou mayst blow thine enemies to tiny bits, in thy mercy.’ And the Lord did grin. And the people did feast upon the lambs, and sloths, and carp, and anchovies, and orangutans, and breakfast cereals, and fruit bats, and large chulapas…

And the Lord spake, saying, '‘First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it.’

And I only learned about him in the first place because of Watchmen.

She looks so much my old lady, Pico!

I loved the Game Gear. It truly blew my mind when I learned as an adult that it was basically a Sega Master System made portable. Made me imagine what could have been if the Game Boy had been a portable NES.

Favorites: Sonic Spinball, Castle of Illusion, Taz Mania, Chuck Rock, Mortal Kombat.

Popcorn, specifically. I used to go to our local theater for the popcorn. They have a ticket plus large popcorn and drink for $9, it’s a great deal. Then I figured out how to make my own popcorn that tastes just like the theater stuff with ghee and fine salt, so now I’m more inclined to just stay home and make my own.

Still gotta do the drive-in at least once a year, though.

Just to be clear, here, I’m not suggesting that the neo Nazis actually did take over, only that that image was the wider public perception.

That’s true everywhere. The issue isn’t what they are, the issue is how they were deliberately misrepresented. A whole lot of films and shows made it a point to conflate punks with white supremacists.

That’s got a great ring to it!

Because the Nazi skinheads did a great job of co-opting the punk title for most people who weren’t actually interested in punk. The news media were very complicit in pushing that specific image to undermine the punk movement to the general public.

If you like Privateer, check out Double Damage Games “Rebel Galaxy: Outlaw”. Excellent game with a lot of sadly lost potential due to the dev being run out of game development by hostile and entitled “gamers”.

Darkstar One. And it is just now getting rereleased, so it doesn’t count.

So instead, I’ll pick The Legend of Dragoon on PSX. Such a fun RPG that really needs revisited.

It’s just a smaller, folding form factor. It’s better at protecting your screen and buttons, but if it’s anything like the GBA SP it’s based on, that hinge is a potential breakage point. Your trading off one kind of durability for a whole new vulnerability. Having said that, I loved my GBA SP and in only got broken because it got misplaced and sat on while it was folded open.

Yeah, the Anbernic RG35XX is under $70 and the RG35XX+ is about $80. Those are super solid choices!

RG353V has served me incredibly well. Works great for systems up to Dreamcast. Plays most PSP games well. Plays DS and earlier Nintendo handhelds perfectly, though I strongly recommend using Arkos if you touch support in the Linux frontend.
