What games are you playing this week? 2017-07-31

@meleu Shovel Knight is a gem. Make the most of it!

I'm playing Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Hyperstone Heist, following the massive thread in the forums. Oh, and Outrun and Contra if I have the chance.

@pjft I'm already listening to this album as something that was part of my childhood:

I was browsing romhacking.net yesterday and found a translation patch for Makai-Mura Gaiden: The Demon Darkness. And since I loved Gargoyle's Quest on my Gameboy when I was young, I'm going to give it a shot. Also I never played the NES version, so I'm getting more of the game because the Gameboy version has 2 extra levels.

@hooperre Yea dude, it's fantastic. It's fan made of course but done very well. I used a tool called Lunar IPS, and patching is wayyy easier than I anticipated. I don't know the rules about posting translations but to be safe I won't.

Just FYI, Lunar IPS runs flawlessly on Linux through Wine.

So, the Walmart near me has 4 Switches in stock. I have thought I've wanted one since they were released, but I can't bring myself to spend $300, plus $90 for a dock, plus $70 for a pro controller, just to play like two games. Am I missing something?

[lilbud]

@obsidianspider I'd say wait until the holiday season, cause there will be a few more games out by then. Like Mario Odyssey.

My friend bought a Switch and she has been disappointed with it so far, mainly the lack of games currently.

Speaking of Mario Odyssey, the title song has been stuck in my head since the reveal.

I am playing some Chrono Trigger on the SNES (because RPG games keeps me occupied more).

[buddyscott]

@obsidianspider wait.... the switch doesn't come with the dock?

[obsidianspider]

@buddyscott Maybe those were extra docks? I dunno. The boxes were in a case.

[obsidianspider]

@lilbud Any Mario song with lyrics feels weird.

Then again, the first Mario song that I ever heard sung was by Captain Lou.

[Afunnyname]

@obsidianspider The switch does come with a dock those are replacements if you break it. Or at least any unboxing I've seen has come with a dock so I would assume it is standard with most switches
