@Sano Then, don't use quicknes

There are some cheevos that don't work in fceumm, pick-up items on Metroid and Goomba Massacre on SuperMario3 are some I remember now.

I already opened an issue on fceumm core repo 6 months ago:
https://github.com/libretro/libretro-fceumm/issues/52

@Sano I saw your topic, but I didn't have a raspi3 at that time. I got one a couple of days ago and I'll try to reproduce your issue. And let's see what we can do.

Cheers!

Back on topic: I'm still playing Contra Advance: Alien Wars on GBA. :-)

@meleu

How does it compare to the SNES version? I actually played a bit of that last night and it makes the original 'Contra' seem like a leisurely stroll through the jungle.

@mediamogul I prefer the GBA version. It has only the side scrolling run and gun stages. It doesn't have the bombs and the option to have two weapons, but I prefer it. And the only reason is: I don't like those top view stages in the SNES version. :-)

EDIT: The original NES version is classic! I love it! :D

@meleu

I don't like those top view stages in the SNES version.

That's always been a divisive element among the fans. I don't care for the top down stages either.

AlexMurphy

@mediamogul FIGHT!

I'm playing space quest 6.

@AlexMurphy

I'm sure it happens. I actually witnessed a fight break out at a bookstore over a disagreement of how a 'Magic the Gathering' card should be played.

AlexMurphy

@mediamogul You should stay in more...

@AlexMurphy

It's getting pretty bad out there. Don't even think about bringing up Kirk vs. Picard.

AlexMurphy

@mediamogul Kirk is a dick. Picard is a GOD!

Loading up my pi to play with friends, I just discovered a little game published on the PS1 in Europe called Bishi Bashi Special. Craziest party game I've ever played, HIGHLY recommended for multiplayer! :)

I think I'm going to add some Minish Cap to my playing this week.

meleu

@obsidianspider great idea! It has cheevos: http://retroachievements.org/Game/559

I'll join you when I finish Contra. I think I need a RPG to calm down a little... :-)

Zzzzzzzzzz......

@meleu I don't think that's going to work with this setup…

meleu

@obsidianspider but we can share some info about the game helping each other to beat the game! ;-)

Started yesterday with Lolo3, I think it's too bad that on the later stages there's only one solution to the levels. If you pick the wrong emerald framer you're screwed.
After that Eggerland meikyuu no fakatsu, is going to be played.
Then I finally beaten the series :D

@meleu So far I'm stuck after the first dungeon, but I am trying to play through without using a guide. I don't remember how far I got when I bought the game years ago, but it wasn't much more than this.

So far my only big takeaway is that Ezlo is annoying. ;)
