Atari ST! Lethal Weapon! 1943! Amiga Mini Classic! Hatari Xtreme!
"I'm too old for this sh!@!", as Danny Glover would say:) But, NEVER with the gaming nostalgia!:)
Atari ST FTW! This Core did not run all that great in previous Releases. It is considerably better now. Personal thanks to bbbradsmith for his amazing efforts in some of the ST awesomeness, on the Libretro side, as well as Xyphious for helping test and getting together some compatibility notes to go along with mine for a doubly bonus:) Next Update, fairly soon!:)
Nostalgia can sometimes be through Rose Tinted Glasses:) How many movies, tv shows, games, etc, do you fondly remember. Then, you go revisit them, and wonder..."What the hell was I thinking when I liked that!?" What are some examples of ones you tried going back to, to find...Damn! That wasn't as fun or cool as I remembered!?
And, the opposite can be true...Some things that you didn't even think of being fun or cool, aged like fine wine! Feel free to give examples of these, too:)
In the case of "regrettable" video games, I have had my fair share of games that were craptastic! I OWNED the Lethal Weapon for NES, in this video...Yet, I never once even bothered playing it! I just happened to grab it for a few bucks at Funcoland! It is almost absurd how "perverse" the intentional OR unintentional innuendo can be in some of these games. I literally had no clue Lethal Weapon for NES had "collectable" icons like "that", haha:) And, wait til the tail end of the video, for Code Namer: Viper, yet another one that "slipped" through Nintendo's Seal of Quality, heh!
I would say, even when a game is considered awful...I still try to give it a chance, if I like the license. I grabbed Star Trek for PS3, despite its abysmal reviews and technical flaws. At first glance, impression wise, it doesn't seem like it is gonna be "too" bad. But, just you wait til Spock starts clotheslining himself on environmental objects, and your "phaser" blows up, yes, blows up...in your face! I still do not regret buying it, though. It is one hell of a bad and funny game to poke fun at! What was the last "bad" game you got, regardless of knowing it WAS gonna be bad!:)
