SNK 40th Anniversary Collection (FAILURE - Low framerate) playthrough
1Well, this was going to be the first of the SNK NES block. Then I discovered, far too late in, that only half the graphics were displaying. This is not a game that can be streamed at 30 frames a second (and I'm annoyed because I'd previously set my streaming to 1080p60 but apparently it got reset down to lower at some point and I never noticed). You see, the NES has an issue displaying too many sprites on one line. SNK figured out a neat work-around. It displays some sprites every other frame. Enemy projectiles on one, yours on another. Even the scoreboard at the bottom, the score on one frame, the E counter, used for ship shields, on another. That's a great idea... if you're not having frames skipped. x_x So I had to shut the stream down to fix it. Good news, the fix seemed to work. But it was too late to go again.
As a note: I absolutely will be abusing the "rewind" function on these games. No way around it for me. With no continues on a 12 or 13 level game where i am repeatedly game-overing on stage two, if I want to show the whole games, if I want to SEE the whole games, it's rewind city. -- Watch live at https://www.twitch.tv/the_nametag
