Scarlet Sprites

And for the first time ever in the lineup…!!!

@Cliffracer56k My modded original Switch gets far more play time these days.

@ScarletSprites This is why I won't buy one. The games are just not interesting enough to me.

Almost a year of owning a Switch 2 and I have only purchased one game for it. 🤔

@Sabre_AZ I 💯 agree! I hated that aspect of it. I don’t need a chore, I want an actual *game*.

I thought maybe I was just outgrowing nintendo or something cuz it got great reviews. The fact you can dig literally anywhere and everywhere was a huge negative. Not trying to miss stuff, so I just end up digging literally everywhere, like I'm playing Milons Secret Castle on NES(iykyk,) which is not a good thing

@NeoCverA I bought the system that did not have it bundled.

@ScarletSprites That wasn’t bundled? You PAID $80?

@NeoCverA MK World

@ScarletSprites What’s the game?

@PixelCNinja Yeah, if I was going to play that I’d have just bought it on Steam. A year and a half ago.

@ScarletSprites I bought 4 games but never played them. I'm tempted to pick up Indiana Jones, but it'll run at 30FPS and res

@Sabre_AZ I forced myself to play it for 3 days and gave up. I didn’t enjoy it either. 😂

@ScarletSprites Same. I bought dk bonanza and I didnt even like it

@pr4m0d Yeah, it’s been months since I’ve played MK World.

@ScarletSprites If it makes you feel better, I purchased 3 games and no one plays them. lol

@AllisonTheVixen It sure sounds like it was 😂

I have to keep reminding myself that Bravely Default HD was worth it...

@jeffqchen I did play about half of BotW with the upgrade via Switch Online.

@ScarletSprites I’ve purchased two games plus a few upgrade packs for Switch 1 games🫠

@FBXGargoyle Take care man. Wishing you and your family the best.

Followup on my mother's condition: It's a brain aneurysm. They are transferring her to the nearest hospital that can treat it (because of course you need to live near a metroplex for this kind of condition). I'll be heading there tonight while my father rides in the ambulance.

@NEONBitchi Played the arcade version at the local mall and I liked it for what it was. A few years ago I got a broken PCB and was able to just swap the bottom board with a GT 3D to get it running again. The button pinout on the arcade annoys me. Never got around to “fixing” that.

@ScarletSprites @pr4m0d I quite literally look at the arcade version as SF2, and the Saturn port as SSF2T. It’s been interesting seeing people chime on this one—especially w/timeframe tech details. I like them both, though—even if they’re “bad” 😆

You either hate it or love it. Riddle me this: What makes the console port of Street Fighter the Movie better than the arcade version? 🤔

@pr4m0d Agree with this. Until recently I’d never played the Saturn port and I was pretty surprised by how different it felt.

@NEONBitchi @PlayAcclaim Not the same game. This is a reskin on the super turbo engine, whereas the arcade version is a different engine entirely made by IT. The arcade version is a really good game that's fun because its broken.

@VaughnFry Yeah! I’ve checked the page a few times already to see if it was open yet.

@ScarletSprites in case you hadn’t seen it, official merch coming soon: neogeostyles.com/view/page/teas…

@NeoCverA I feel like that will be added by the community if not.

@ScarletSprites I wonder if they even tried to get the Stan Bush goodness.

😍

@ABeerAndAGame @_claypot I bought, played, and still own Way of the Warrior.

@_claypot Sir I own, have played, and beaten, Herbie Fully Loaded on the GameBoy Advance

you guys gotta actually play bad video games

I've been tagged in this way too many times today. Put your arcade games in the middle of your living room like a man, you absolute pussy.

@ArcadeHunters I like Wick as well. Pokemon has been fun but am ready for a new entry this summer.

@ScarletSprites I don’t care what anybody says. I loved John Wick so I’m excited to see how this turns out for Elliot and his team. Leaked photos look great but waiting to see how the pro will look

@FrankAtHPP PCB was still relatively cheap too. I grabbed this not too long ago.

Guardians/Denjin Makai II is such an under appreciated beat-'em-up. The gameplay feels flawless, and I love the sprite work and color palette tremendously. #retrogames #arcade #retrogaming

@stgenerations I have ideas of what a silver and purple Decepticon limited edition would look like and there is no reality in which my expectations could ever be met. 😂

@ScarletSprites About time G1 got some love. Wonder if they'll do a G2 limited table redeco for big money no whammies.
