29 long years have passed since I founded the emulation archive, Zophar's Domain, on 11.9.96. To this very day, the site still stands as a testament to an era that never actually disappeared but continues to live in the hearts of retrogamers all over the word. Emulation Forever!

The number of posts in here about how they were either not born or very young at the time really drives home the reality that the userbase here isn’t the same as the old place.
27 years ago did you snooze and not pre-order a gold cartridge of Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time?

All finished! Overall, loved this reimagining of these two games. I'm particularly pleased with DQ2. I'm not entirely sure how I feel about the new postgame ending, but I will give myself some time to stew on it.

Wow, this is cool. They actually put the はかぶさの剣 in DQ2 HD. This is a glitched weapon that combined the sword of destruction (cursed) with the falcon sword in the original DQ2, nicknamed hakabusa (hakai+hayabusa) by fans. They put it in DQB2 as a cute thing, but they've now put it in DQ2 itself.

DQ2 is very dear to me. It was my first DQ game, and I've always thought much more highly of it than most people. The new version continues to impress me at every turn. All of the new character moments are lovely, as are all of the added events. It really feels like a more complete and polished game

These enemies were not meant to be seen head on like this!!! That's weird.

Never thought I'd see the day that the prince of Cannock would be my MVP in DQ2, because he's currently got an edged boomerang equipped and is tearing through enemies. This version of DQ2 is like a fever dream.

There's always been chatter about removing friction in Dragon Quest remakes, but one thing that really strikes me is stuff like this. What is the point of this item if you're just going to mention that it's cursed from the get go?

note the legals: LRG's using Japan's arbitration system for orphaned games to reissue Little Samson—if you can demonstrate that you've made a genuine effort to contact/identify a potential rights owner to no avail, you can legally commercialise an old game by paying royalties to the JP govt, which…

Finished The Outer Worlds 2. Honestly, fantastic game. I strongly recommend that people check it out, even (especially) if you were not a fan of the first game. Writing, characters, combat, art direction are all a cut above.

I'm about 15 hours into The Outer Worlds 2 and I'm pretty enamored with it. It's much better than the first game in every way. There doesn't seem to be a lot of buzz about, I hope it isn't overlooked too much.

Pokemon Legends Z-A is the first Pokemon game I've actually reached the credits on. It was pretty good! I liked Arceus too, but I ran out of Steam before finishing it up.

After a few hours with the beta, my impression of DQ Smash/Grow is that a gacha Vampire Survivors clone is not a particularly easy sell, because the real thing is only $5. In this case, they do not really even have an interesting story to latch on to. It's 2010 era mobile game design still.

I'm not very familiar with Digimon at all; I played a bit of Cyber Sleuth, and that's it. Time Stranger is honestly really cool. It's got extreme PS2 B-grade RPG energy (positive). Like what if we never stopped making games like that and kept improving within that mold.

While playing through Ghost of Yotei, the PS App sent me several notifications along the way congratulating me on making various points of progress. It felt weird and I didn't like it.
