   @NonPlayableClown @raccoon @dielan That is some really nasty upscaling. Someone tell the dude that it is illegal to use interpolation like that.

     @p @raccoon @NonPlayableClown @dielan super crisp pixel art isn't an accurate representation of a game made for crts either

     @snacks @NonPlayableClown @dielan @raccoon You tell me that like I wasn't playing games on CRTs from birth until MGS4 basically forced me to get a 1080p LCD TV.

     @dielan @NonPlayableClown @raccoon @snacks Ha, I didn't have the built-in VCR, it was a regular one, like 28" or something, but you remember at the time, like, woot.com had the "one thing per day" and these massive Philips LCD TVs showed up one day and I thought, "Damn...I could read the text in MGS4."
     
     (I didn't give a damn about broadcast TV changing over except what the FCC did with that slice of the spectrum.)

     @zero @NonPlayableClown @raccoon @dielan It legit looks better than most $current_year games. We've got a supercomputer sitting under the TV and it's rare that all that power goes into something that looks unique.

     @zero @raccoon @NonPlayableClown @dielan The Edgeworth game was fun. It's way different (no trials, no point-and-click) but it was fun.

     @SilverDeth @NonPlayableClown @dielan @raccoon @zero Ah, the mini-game kinda ruined it for me: "Hey, play this thing that is like the old-timey Digimon devices and everyone has a full set of rainbow shell gear before Lucca opens the portal." On the other hand, I wasn't done with Majora's Mask, there was a lot of stuff I was playing.

     @p @NonPlayableClown @dielan @raccoon @zero There is a lot about the DS version that I just skipped. The new added content was excessively grindy and a poor shoe-horn to link Cross to Trigger in a way that even kinda-made sense.

     @zero @SilverDeth @raccoon @NonPlayableClown @dielan I push the button even in RPGs that don't have that mechanic because it is fun. Did you ever ask Mario how many hours in you needed to prove you could jump? Did you ask Solid Snake how many hours in you needed to prove that you could sneak past the guards? Did you ask Tetris how many hours in you needed to prove that you could spin the block? :alexjonesdemons:

     super mario rpg successful timing sound effect is enough dopamine hit to justify the second button press.
     
     to the point I started involuntarily started hitting the A button a second time on Final Fantasy 2/4 when they approach for attack.
