Playing Macross within Tower Unite
1If you are playing this community-driven minigame-filled online multiplayer game on Steam, which originally started as a game mode for Garry's Mod before becoming its stand-alone iteration running on Epic's Unreal Engine rivaling Valve's Source engine, you may have already heard the news of the game now including a LibRetro feature, allowing you to play emulators of consoles within Tower Unite itself and even giving you the possibility of emulating your childhood or youth or whatever of playing with what you liked in the past.
Whilst you were playing this game, you may recall that prior to the inclusion of the LibRetro features, when you visit the toy store, there is a PlayStation known as the PlaySystem which is unpurchasable and only there for decoration, which seems to be somewhat of a placeholder of what would eventually become exactly this, except that when this feature was then suddenly included as per of the recent announcement, there is no PlayStation-like console that you can use. Only consoles based on the Atari 2600, NES, (North American) SNES, N64, Genesis/Mega Drive and Dreamcast are included, all of which are indeed colorable to your personal preference as seen here. In addition, even arcade cabinets are included too so you can build a personal arcade of yours if you so desire. It even includes the media formats including CDs which can have their readable portions colored black like a good-old-fashioned PlayStation disc.
For this demonstration, I decided to show off a bit of the NES game that I played at my age of 6 (if I recall correctly) at one of my old neighbours in my old apartment building where I lived before moving to where I am now, when he had a famiclone that came with two multicarts, with one of them including this game you are seeing right now. It is called Macross, made by none other than Namco (Yes, that Namco! (Klonoa, Tekken, Pac-Man, Ridge Racer, Soul Edge etc.)), based on the hit anime series of the same name, made in collaboration with their eventual merger Bandai. It's being played on the Duper Partycon, (obviously) based on the SNES, albeit the American version, which I had to recolor it to have some resemblance to the SNES released in Europe, which is the same model as the original Japanese Super Famicom, as was the model the Famiclone my neighbour once had and that I played on was based on when it was known as the "Super Com", and the game was running on a slow PAL speed rather than the NTSC speed the game originally ran at, given that it was chinese-made and that China used PAL just like how Europe did. For nostalgia sakes, I personally would have prefered playing the game at a slow PAL speed, but since the emulator within Tower Unite does not have core settings unlike RetroArch, I had to play the game at its actual intended NTSC speed.
When the game gets updated to include a console based on the PlayStation, presumably being the unpurchasable PlaySystem found at the Toy Store, I will be showing off some PlayStation gameplay within Tower Unite. I have tested PlayStation gameplay within Tower Unite already, although with some noticable emulation issues which I'll be showing that when I get to it.
I tried to get a Neo Geo game working within Tower Unite, which however lead to the game crashing when attempting to boot up one of the games made for it.
