wild arms 3 has ten forms of the final boss, we've never heard of a game with more bosses in the final boss rush than that

is there any game with more forms of the final boss than Wild Arms 3?

dissociation level: all functions appear normal but I just saw a 6 and thought "wait why is there an upside-down 9 there"

I feel like it gives a rather precise idea of our age if I were to say "we have never used a computer that did not have an optical drive (until the 2010s anyway) and yet we have used 5¼" floppy disks"

why did graphics coprocessors keep their card-in-slot form factor, but CPUs only had it briefly in the late 80s/early 90s?

heard on an LGR video: "The CD is fine, didn't mess up anything. But the internals are a little screwed up because of the whole uh, well, the fact that it's a piece of crap."

it could just be the novelty of trying a cheese made from sheep's milk though (because proper pecorino romano cheese is, that's what pecorino means, it's just italian for sheep or something)

Parmigiano-reggiano is supposedly the Best Cheese with pecorino romano being a Pale Imitation but after trying authentic versions of both I think we prefer pecorino romano

the PS2 really should have been compatible with PS/2 peripherals

Hmm. We want to upgrade at some point to a ryzen 3600 processor. Not right now, we've spent enough money this month, but would anyone be interested in buying our old, barely used ryzen 2200G at a discount? I'm not sure what we'd ask for it but you're welcome to make an offer.

Today's mind-wandering resulted in a neat idea: Someone with three bodies, but one detached head between them

Thinking of having them be some kind of avian or gryphon, genderqueer, who generally has each body have a different sort of presentation

how much longer do we have to wait to get μLED screens, hurry up and make them engineer people

oh yes and Kirby Super Star

oh! of course Final Fantasy II (IV) and III (VI) too

Already have:
Chrono Trigger
Illusion of Gaia
Lagoon (oof)
Donkey Kong Country
Super Mario World

Want:
Super Mario All-Stars
Terranigma (repro cart)
Super Metroid
Mega Man X (at least the first one)
maybe some Donkey Kong Country games?
A Link to the Past
Secret of Evermore
(_not_ Secret of Mana because we (will) have the Mana Collection)

Anyone know any other classics or hidden gems we should add to this wishlist?

dammit now people have me thinking about body-swapping and trying on a friend's body for a while

so it turns out the thing that would solve all our problems with audio/video stuff is called an AV receiver and they are incredibly expensive and loaded with features we don't need x.x

you know you're getting a quality product when this is its feature list

I wonder how feasible it would be to create some kind of post-processing video filter that would remove rapid flashing from old video games because there are games that are Really Good and yet that I can't recommend to friends because photosensitive epilepsy
