@xianc78 "hey guys, check out all the games that you can't legally purchase from us anymore!"
@beardalaxy Used game sales.
@berkberkman I always loved wood-paneled wall basements. I wish I had one growing up. Technically, I did, but they walls have always been painted over.
I went to that museum back in 2016. It was nice, but it was filled with information I already knew. The only souvenir I bought from there was a shitty, USB, NES gamepad because it was the only thing I could afford and I thought I could use it for gamedev, but the D-pad is registered as an analog stick on most devices, for whatever reason, which makes it extremely difficult to use or program for.
@tinosoft If you go there, you can make your own.
The Nintendo Museum opened up yesterday, and tickets are randomly picked lottery style. I honestly can't tell if they did this out of greed or they knew that this place would be extremely crowded as there are no plans for one outside of Japan.
Honestly, other than being in a former Nintendo factory, this place doesn't seem special at all. It's no different to a Video Game Museum in Texas that I've been to. In fact, I think they copied the whole "play retro games with giant controllers" from the giant Pong console in that museum.

>i will say that the reason for the enemies moving on screen is because some of the attacks, i think namely the ones you do with multiple party members, have actual hitboxes in like an AOE effect so you can actually hit several enemies at once with them if you time it right and attack the right one.
Yeah, I know that, but still I don't like it.
@beardalaxy ProJared's review implied that it was possible to avoid the guilty verdict. I'd actually tried to play innocent at the fair but failed.
>i actually don't like the gameplay of chrono trigger all that much, but the music, story, and character design are all extremely good.
Like I said a while ago, RPGs are made by those who have great story ideas, but zero gameplay ideas, and while Chrono Trigger does try to mix up the battle system by having enemies move around during battle and borrowing the timed battle system from Final Fantasy, I think it fails. It's difficult to mix real-time and turn-base combat. It just comes off as real-time combat for enemies, but turn-based combat for you.
I think the setting is alright so far. I love combining science fiction and fantasy tropes, but I'm not particularly a fan of time-travel (I think it opens up for major plot holes and paradoxes). Thought the world feels much smaller compared to other games. There are like 3 buildings per town and they are accessed directly on the overworld, but I guess you can excuse it as there are multiple overworlds.
The music is really good though. Even before playing the game, I always loved the Epoch theme and the Zeal Kingdom Theme. The Epoch theme in particular is a prime example of why fast vehicular travel should actually be associated with relaxing music, unless it's during a race or a similar suspenseful scene. It should be like taking a relaxing drive down a country-side road at sunset or riding a plane or a high-speed train. The Zeal theme fits perfectly with an enlighten yet hidden civilization.
@gabriel Why is her real name censored in the video, but her address is not? Having your address doxed is worse than having your real name revealed, IMO.

inb4 "voting doesn't matter" but i won't vote for anyone if their platform includes anything about israel other than not engaging in any sort of relationship with them whatsoever.
i just hate how the us has to get involved in everyone else's fucking business when we have more than enough problems on our own soil. problems that, if addressed, would do far more good than giving weapons to people to destroy each other with.
