Update on Retro Thread + Tempcast

Alright been spending some time on this retro thread that hopefully should be a regular feature here. I've got some help from TrolleyDave, Cockroachman & Granville. Will keep the contents a secret for now but here are what systems are featured:

Super Nintendo
Gameboy Color
Gameboy Advance
PC Engine
Saturn (from Trolleydave)
PC (from Cockroachman)
Commodore 64

All of these will be related to a recent release or event.

One thing I will mention is that I've got Granville to do a comparison of Kirby Super Star (SNES) & Kirby Super Star Ultra (DS) and its very good and in depth.

As well as that there is a random Mega Drive game review and there might be a write up of a cancelled GBC game too but that depends on what time I'll have. This should be out by next Friday with some luck.


I, VVoltz & Spikey & maybe a guest should hopefully be recording Tempcast 15 either tomorrow or next week, depends on who can make it. It will hopefully be filth free even though I've had a few recent PM's from people asking me to not clean it up (can't please everyone). There will be a lot less news, we'll probably have 10 minutes at the very most of news discussion, the rest will be game related humour. The reason for this is that what we're doing gets boring after a while.

If you have any questions you'd like to be answered on the Tempcast then PM me and we may feature them as long as they're decent enough.

That is it.

Read again, there is a random video game review and its one for Mega Drive/Genesis and B-Blue inadvertanly picked it without knowing it last week.

Though there might not be one for that system next time or for the others featured. Just depends really.

An update on Tempcast 15:

VVoltz, Spikey & Sephi recorded it on Wednesday, my PC kept on turning itself off every 15 minutes & with me starting a new course soon I wasn't able to do anymore late nights for a couple of weeks so I'm not on it. I may do a segment for it, depends on what the others say.

VVoltz is editing this now so a new episode should be with us soon.

    I love it for most things most stores you just shows the receipt online and they scan it

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Makes it easy for incompetent restaurant staff that don't know how to hear an order
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Mostly for big purchases, I want it in my hands before I pay. Like a tv, I trust picking it up myself, before I'd trust it being sent thru mail/delivery. (Broken screen, etc) But yea if I can order online, then pickup at store is ok, but not all places offer that.

    Thing is, if you break it driving back to your house, it's your fault. But if the delivery driver damages it, it's not your fault.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Most people that haul big tvs have empty trucks or know enough not to set it face down
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Then I gotta send it back and wait another week or two. I have a pickup truck, with a extended cab, so no prob for me.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Most manufacturers pack it well enough where they aren't that dumb to let it happen
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:

    Is crazy to think, you used to be able to build a decent PC for $300-400. Those days are way gone.
