      I was thinking about getting the Wonderboy Remake but from what I've seen so far I'm not sure if I would enjoy it as much as I did the original. Also I'm still a little bit disappointed from Thimbleweed Park which I finished yesterday. So I have no idea what to play next.

            @Capeman It's not Dr. Mario, but have your wife check out Palamedes.

              // Edited comment on previous (now deleted) post. Thanks @BuZz .

              I'm currently playing Contra on the Arcade, on 1-credit runs. So far I only made it to end of level 2 (hadn't played it before), but I'm having fun. I'm also doing it on Midnight Resistance, but that's a game I have finished several times in the past, so it's more for fun :)

              A few weeks ago I was struggling with enjoying MAME and arcade games on emulators, given the unlimited continues. I was thinking of implementing a credit limiter either on MAME, or something, but then ran into this article on the Japanese Arcade Culture and 1-Credit runs, and while I am not a "hardcore gamer" to have ever finished a significant amount of games, especially on a single credit, it did get me to appreciate arcade games more and enjoying them a lot more by forcing me to always restart them when I lose.

              Leaving it here in case others are interested:

                  Finished Metroid Zero Mission.

                  It took 8h because I spent some time trying to explore the map and find the secret passages/items.

                  Now I moved to Mario vs Donkey Kong (GBA).

                    Pokemon Red ++, nothing like an original gameboy classic PK game that's been highly upgraded for a relaxing weekend.

                      Pretty easy game, if you want to get a massage in your ego with a retroachievements badge, I recommend this game. ;-)

                        @meleu That price is a little too rich for my blood, I want one, but I guess my G3 with a bluetooth snes controller will have to do for now.

                          @lilbud are you "lilbud" at retroachievements site? You played with retroachievements enabled only once, and it was in 2016-06-05?! Is it correct?

                            @meleu Yeah. Keep this in mind, if there is someone on a site with the nickname Lilbud, it's probably me. I did screw around with it before finals last year, but stopped. Probably the lack of PS1 games on there

                              Not so easy, but not so hard either.

                                I haven't been lately playing any video games, mainly because HELLA PROJECTS!

                                But I'm still waiting for my Hyperkin Supaboy. It was my birthday on May 3. :D
