New to RetroPie
-
The 5200 has some of the coolest looking carts.
I agree! But you can't judge a video game by it's cover!

If you want something a little unusual, try 'Kult' on the Atari ST.
I think I'm going to use the Amiga emulator to play this, but 'Kult' looks very interesting. The artwork alone is amazing.
-
I need to figure out how to install the Atari ST emulator now. Can anyone direct me to directions on how to add emulators to RetroPie? I haven't been been able to find it yet.
-
These links should help.

https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/Atari-ST-STE-TT-FalconI just ran 'Kult' under Amiga emulation and while the audio is superior, there's a problem with how the cursor is displayed in game, so Atari ST looks to be the best option.

Thanks @mediamogul
-
I tried Kult and man there is a huge learning curve for that game. Have you beat it? How long did it take you to figure out WTF is going on? It does have a really cool splash screen.
-
I got it going thanks to your links. It was pretty easy. Had to try a few roms before I got one that worked. Lucky there was one with both disks in one file otherwise I'd still be trying to figure out how to switch discs. I remember those days, I had a Dino chess game that had like 30 floppy disks and most of the time you would make one move on the board and change 3 disks just to fight for a couple minutes then change disks again to get back to the chess board.
-
I remember one afternoon in the early nineties, a friend and I were trying to play 'Dragon's Lair' off of a stack of floppies. We'd press one button and be prompted to insert disk after disk until it was time to press one more button. I still visit him in the institution.

@Kaveman42 I have so many favorite games, I've enjoyed all systems so far.
-
@buddyscott i love red state. Great movie.
-
Found two of the old pc games I used to play with the stack of floppys.

@Kaveman42 the graphics are amazing!
-
@Kaveman42 I remember that game! I picked it up in the discount bin at a Babbage's store in the mail. It had an extremely large instruction manual! That games was ahead of it's time and you could build your own sets and script objects to move to make your own movies! The game was pretty complicated so i never made anything that exciting but it was still a lot of fun.
-
Ya, come to think of it your right about the manual. The game was such a process. I use to get my games from a store in the mall called Software Inc I think before CompUSA opened up by my house.
-
Just looked it up and I was wrong. The store was called Software Etc and it looks like it became GameStop when it merged with Babbage.
-
@Kaveman42 wasnt the store software etc.?
Edit: i just saw your correction.
-
@Kaveman42
Yes I want to Software Etc.. as well! -
I really miss those software stores. I used to browse around them forever just reading the back of every box.
-
@mediamogul
I miss them too and GameStop doesn't cut it for me. I also loved browsing the Strategy Guides for Point & Click Adventures that I happened to be stuck on lol.
