It’s still something I’d rather have than not; not having it makes for a less fluid experience.

First of all, not American.

Second of all, nine-dash line and neo-colonialism in Asia, Africa, South America and Europe says very differently. As does the Han supremacism that Xi surrepitously perpetuates.

That moment when you pretend to fight against imperialism - by implicitly supporting imperialists in the PRC.

I’m inclined to think the Mega Drive port is actually more enjoyable than the arcade version, even if it gives up a bit in terms of graphics and sound. It’s definitely the version I prefer to play. It is always interesting, though, to see how widely Sega’s arcade games were ported in that era, even considering that they were console manufacturers themselves.

Well, yeah. They’re also partially responsible for the anti-choice movement in Ireland.

Actually used to be a member of a forum focusing on the Golden Sun games. I was very impressed with them back in the day; they felt like a prime SNES-era JRPG designed for the GBA. I especially liked how the Psynergy system was used for puzzles outside of combat; non-combat uses of magic is something I’ve considered to be lacking in JRPGs generally, so it was a nice curiosity.

My line is at the transition from 2d to 3d mostly.

Strictly speaking, the two co-existed long before 3D became the vogue on consoles; Revs is a proper racing simulator in 1984.

“LibsofTiktok” is clearly just a right wing actor making liberal viewpoints look stupid, yeah?

Yes.

I’ve played Colossal Cave Adventure on an ICL 2900-series mainframe from the 1980s at The National Museum of Computing in Bletchley.

Most of the things Psygnosis did; the Wipeout series, G-Police and Colony Wars being the most obvious choices. Tomb Raider is another good one, as are the Tony Hawk games. X-COM: Enemy Unknown is meant to be a solid port of the classic turn-based tactics game. I’ve heard praise for the Twisted Metal games and Syphon Filter, but haven’t played them myself. While I know that old sports games are often considered anathema in the retrogaming sphere, Jonah Lomu Rugby is often considered one of the best games depicting rugby union ever made.
