    Hardware Nintendo stops wiiu production

    I just made a web comic called No Credit Gaming. The second issue is about how I feel regarding the Wii U: http://retrogamingmagazine.com/2016/11/04/no-credit-gaming-issue-2/ Basically, the hardware didn't impress me. The lockout if you don't agree to the forced firmware update sealed the deal.

    Game Panic 2 for the Sega Genesis (Pre-release)

    I put in no DRM or other copy protection. Technically you can dump it for your own personal use. I'd use a Retro Freak or Retrode to do so. Real cart + your favorite emulator = win!

    Upp Plus released for the Atari 2600

    Upp Plus is a unlimited variant of Upp! for the Atari 2600. The gameplay is Arkanoid-esque but you do not control the "paddle". Instead you control a ship that must avoid the ball and pass up through the level. It can be bought here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/Gemintronic ROM of original game...

    Fallout 4 can wait for the bargain bin

    Yeah. Perhaps bug free was a huge overstatement :p I love Bethesda bugs that let you get an edge. There are some situations where I'm just not a good enough FPS player. Glitches help.

    Fallout 4 can wait for the bargain bin

    I used to scrounge around the bargain bin because cheap is good. The only time you bought new is when a major title was released like Super Mario Bros 2 or Final Fantasy 7. Now I can’t bring myself to buy Fallout 4 new despite the hype and anticipation. This is going to be a bargain bin purchase...

    What developers consider "retro" is all wrong.

    As I’m winding up to start my own indie game development studio I’ve come to realize just how warped the “retro” genre is. Many “me too” mobile developers seem to think oversimplification equals retro. Many retro gamers never get beyond the brands and games of their youth. Did David Crane...

    Code Eliminator for the Sega Genesis to be released at PRGE

    Hey! My first sega genesis homebrew Code Eliminator will be released at the Portland Retro Gaming Expo. A cart and SegaCD version will be available. Code Eliminator is a very simple shooter in the same vein as Atari 2600 games of yore. One or two players must survive endless waves of "code...

    AtariAge may have gotten cease & desist for Princess Rescue

    That's very interesting. You'd think the big N would kill any form of release like what happened to Crimson Echoes.

    AtariAge may have gotten cease & desist for Princess Rescue

    That's your opinion. Nowhere on the packaging is any mention of any Nintendo character. The sprites were not ripped but almost coded in. The music was transcribed by ear and stuffed into DATA statements. There is no way you would confuse this with a branded Nintendo product. It's an...

    AtariAge may have gotten cease & desist for Princess Rescue

    They've got an in-progress tribute to Giana Sisters here: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/201771-s3-the-sensational-santuci-sisters-wip/ Although if similar gameplay gets you threatened by lawyers that will cease to exist too. In this environment NO new games will come out for old systems.

    AtariAge may have gotten cease & desist for Princess Rescue

    A rip off doesn't make it wrong morally or legally. Similar gameplay cannot be protected.

    Actually, with all due respect, you already explained that you are not the current maintainer of the project.  Only the person that is currently working on it can state when the project is dead.  In the past you've conceded that this project no longer holds any value to you.  Saying "this...
