First this setup is awesome. And I have done this mod, I have the same SF cabinet. I focused on higher quality, Industrias Lorenzo joysticks and buttons. Which is a company that used to be partnered with Happ, who you might have heard of too. I don’t remember the name of my micro switches but they are sensitive and clicky, I can throw fireballs like a glissando on a piano. I bought a blank top and drilled my own holes for a 1- player deck so I have room to play. With a custom vinyl graphic I had made, looks the same but for 1 player. I added a shelf on the inside, out of a single piece of wood, wrapped with the gray stone street fighter graphic ( a vinyl-ish wrap from eBay), to match the cabinet. Subwoofer underneath. On the shelf is the pi, power supply, amp, and a PlayStation 2. My USB encoder also runs PS2 controllers, so I can switch between pi and a PS2 inside. I have HDMI cables out that can hook up to a TV -pi supports 4 players so you can use the arcade 1up as a controller and watch on a TV or on the 1Up monitor at the same time. Lots of other details to mention. I should make a video I went down that rabbit hole, it was my covid project 😂
Hi Coury, I recently realized you were from Northern Ky. I too am from Northern Ky. I grew up in Union (Boone County) just outside of Florence. I now live in Dry Ridge (Grant County). This is a great channel! You fellas keep up the good work.
I've been playing Pokemon ROM hacks recently, particularly ones that enable you to complete your Pokedex without needing to trade. Hacks that make gym battles more challenging are also welcome.
Good to have a flash cart. Every game pretty much for the console. Kinda a space saver as well. Always good to have the collection of games you like. Having complete collection is kinda dumb. Hey if you win lotto and have the space :). And bragging rights. Got a few everdrives, ended up getting the mode (good as is they stoped updating it, maybe because of the war or something.)
It's sweet they've translated "Linkle Liver Story", it's always been a game I've wanted to play through, but please tell me they've fix the obvious engrish title, as it's clearly meant to be "Wrinkle River Story". What's even stranger, I've never seen anyone point this out when mentioning/referring to the game LOL. XD
@@mylifeingaming oh fantastic. I mean I love MLIG and up until a year ago I’d watch everything regardless but between this and livestreams etc I can’t tackle every 3+ hour meal so I didn’t know that. Thanks ☺️
I worked on multiple Fan Translations in German. And the Community NEED ASM Coder. We have more than enough people willing to translate. :) We Did Suikoden 1 in German. And Suikoden Tierkreis did some people i did this with the Japanese Psp spin off to english :)
Personally I strongly prefer to play retro games in their original state, just as they were back then. The only exceptions being translation hacks for Japanese only releases and Gameboy re-colorization hacks, which both are absolutely amazing.
@@bearonguitarit comes across as a little elitist and besides, there will come a time when the hardware won't work, we've already seen the effects of CD-ROMs for the SEGA CD being constantly broken, without the Chinese market the PS1 would be in the same boat. I bet in the next few years the GameCube will be in the same position.
@@friedzombie4 I don't care how it comes across. It's how I played these games back when they were released and still do to this day. Anything that changes these games, other than translation hacks for foreign releases, I personally feel are messing with the feel of the games in a way that makes them feel entirely unnatural to me. A good example is Zelda OoT played at 60fps. It looks super fluid but the feel of the game gets affected in a negative way. It's the same thing with upscaling the internal resolution of games, which often results in geometry issues or effects no longer being rendered correctly. Different people are going to come to different conclusions and have different preferences, everyone can choose for themselves what they want, as there are so many different options today how retro games can be played and enjoyed. Yes, I agree. All retro hardware will eventually fail and all disc based games will eventually start to develop disc rot at some point, which is a problem since these retro consoles were built to the lowest possible cost and not necessarily with longevity in mind. This is why I'm a huge supporter of the Mister system, Analogue and FPGA gaming in general, as these devices authentically replicate a range of retro systems using what is easiest described as hardware based emulation.
Seen where you can send to your p.o box and cool.. I live in Newport too, although zip code is 41071 and thought that was the only one in newport. Guess someone can think that like me when raised in a very small "hick" town with only one zip code but it is in Shannon Georgia, NW that is. So...hello potential neighbor say that cause you can have a po box ans not live anywhere near of that. Anyways I hope you have a wonderful and blessed day and stay safe out there!
[Try4ce] Not sure what part of the video this is in response to, but regardless of rendering resolution, a 4K signal is a 4K signal. The VCR-styled Xbox One cannot output a 4K signal, but One S and One X can. One S cannot render games over 1080p, but One X totally can. Many lighter weight games even have native 4K modes with One X.
When it comes to ROM hacking a CD based game, yeah, it's a pain if you're plannig on patching and burning your own discs. It's an ethical grey zone, but rather than patching a rip of your own copy of the game, you can find pre-patched disc image files online. Those work fine burned onto CDR or on ODE. You can decide the ethical difference between patching a rip of your own legit copy or downloading a pre-patched rip of someone else's copy of a game you legit own, or (since not a cent of whatever you pay for a 2nd hand Sega Saturn or PC Engine CD game will go to the actual developers) don't own.
@@mylifeingamingSorry, I misunderstood the "some of the information in these videos may have changed since their original release" to mean there was subtle changes and updates to the videos.
my admittedly cryptic choice of words was referring to the fact that there are flash cards for old consoles to be had besides the ones shown in this video. And actually not just old consoles, but current ones like the new Mig Switch for the Switch, which also enables a lot of retro gaming and emulation on that (at least already ageing) handheld. Or maybe SD2SP2 (plus Swiss) along with PicoBoot for the Gamecube and so on and so forth.
Terranigma is good, but not as good as everyone says it is, it is too cryptic to be truly great. The combat is good, the game feels good, but either the translation or story itself is pretty bad. I enjoyed it but I don't recommend it to others either, I think it should be listed lower in priority compared to other games it often gets ahead of. I like mystery and problem solving in games but if I have to pull out a guide it usually is bound to take some points off for me, the game just slightly loses playability but comes so close to great, minus the story being rather dull, the game starts strong but has you wishing it was over by the middle to end, also the Bloody Mary fight is nonsense. I would like to see a remake or something though, it is still worthy of one, just that I don't recommend it unless you have played through all the other games on the system and need something new. I also like to wrack my brain in point and click adventures, where guides are often needed inevitably at some time or other, but felt Terranigma just was a bit unfun and unfair, a good game but too much praise in my opinion. Even though the nes everdrive save state feature has time and date features, it would be pretty cool if you could rename them also, it would come in handy in so many scenarios. I don't own one but yeah I could see that being useful. I plan to get one sometime in the future, along with some of the others, and would love to have that feature, but will probably never happen. It would be really good to have the ability to rename them and share them in sets with others, for various reasons. Kind of hoping for Nintendo to create something similar one day, with social features, but licensing is always going to hold that back from reality, or give us a very limited selection of games, mediocre titles. I like the idea of reinventing the wheel in retro gaming, with something like a modern famicom disk system, with a social network built for a modern retro experience. Official translations, mods, challenges, etc, a little like retroarch. Obviously not trying to replace the everdrive or similar items, just something like a modern retro system, it would never have the same freedom of those devices for too many reasons. It could work and I am thinking distantly from the recently released products, although there would not be enough demand, interest, and might be better implemented into a current console or the ability to share functionality between both, it might just be too late for such an idea to flourish. Something I would like to see though, with events, tournaments, rewards, etc. With something like that it keeps you talking, wondering what is next, there is still plenty of life in those old games, for veterans and newcomers alike, I like the social aspect of it. conversation. Obviously Nintendo is the only company capable of such a grand vision, retro games have those abilities, being the nature they are. The device would not be so much as emulation but would act very much like it layering on features commonly found within emulators, paying would still be likely but at lower costs, with free stuff to be had. It would cross many systems, and be more organized such as an emulator would do, most modern collections, remakes, mess this up often. Simplistic menus, navigation, overlays, but quirky and fun. I like the thought of being able to sign up for tournaments, for games, or special invite tournaments for top players, revisions of older games in competitive form, for sport and reward, obviously a point system implemented, stuff we have all seen before but in a complete package, something significant, social, geared towards events to set your calendar and practice for, but still being more than that, having a soul you could say. The ability to create your own tournaments, and groups outside of official events would be notable also, a good way to rerelease older games with added functionality too, free updates to games are a must, obviously the option to host games, in a way other players can choose to play with you, kind of like waving in a sense. I like the idea of having modes per game such as pure or emulation mode, that removes save states, cheats, etc, just to keep everything fair and balanced in the social sphere. Those features should still be available though but not be counted for as significant. With each game you should also be able to choose between playing the original or a revision, and the option to choose between event editions to play on also, such as you would have in a tournament cart, but the great thing being that the classic games can be retuned and updated, made new. I had the Sega Channel for a brief time growing up, and it never left me, something I never wanted to lose. I want to kind of reinvent that feeling again, just better, more modern, new.
Ahhhaaa!! Weird unnecessary patches in game to make them harder that read your controls and counter your inputs. So the game cheating was a thing back then my cousin owes me money 😂 😂 did that do that to Spiderman maximum carnage?
Haha mann panische mücken angst 😂 hatte dasselbe mit weissen fliegen die fliegen einfach nicht auf die gelbtafeln 😂😂😂 alle fliegenarten kleben da drauf ausser die weissen die meine pflanze f*cken 😢

Holy moly, that's a big video. Well, this will be a nice work shift.
4 Hours! nice. Ever Drives and ODEs have saved retro gaming. I have a DC ODE, FX Pak Pro, Mega ED Pro w/ 32x, and EverDrive64.
i have always written off rom hacks as something that doesnt interest me till you showed me some awesome use cases, so i just kept watchg... and watching... lol
The most impressive color hack ive seen is Mega Man 5 for the gameboy color. Its looks amazing and plays so well!
Really nice video! MLiG did their best again! 👌🏻 A suggestion for the next time: include the links in the description of all the romhacks
First this setup is awesome.
And I have done this mod, I have the same SF cabinet. I focused on higher quality, Industrias Lorenzo joysticks and buttons. Which is a company that used to be partnered with Happ, who you might have heard of too. I don’t remember the name of my micro switches but they are sensitive and clicky, I can throw fireballs like a glissando on a piano.
I bought a blank top and drilled my own holes for a 1- player deck so I have room to play. With a custom vinyl graphic I had made, looks the same but for 1 player.
I added a shelf on the inside, out of a single piece of wood, wrapped with the gray stone street fighter graphic ( a vinyl-ish wrap from eBay), to match the cabinet. Subwoofer underneath.
On the shelf is the pi, power supply, amp, and a PlayStation 2. My USB encoder also runs PS2 controllers, so I can switch between pi and a PS2 inside.
I have HDMI cables out that can hook up to a TV -pi supports 4 players so you can use the arcade 1up as a controller and watch on a TV or on the 1Up monitor at the same time.
Lots of other details to mention.
I should make a video
I went down that rabbit hole, it was my covid project 😂

Just pressing play on this video, but I want to shout out the recent hack BS F-Zero Deluxe that preserves the BS courses that were lost to time.
Big dog big ol nuts 🫶🏿
Good to have a flash cart.
Every game pretty much for the console. Kinda a space saver as well.
Always good to have the collection of games you like.

You guys are great! Thanks for all the great content…. Definitely different than the rest of the retro community.
Would love to see a follow-up to Games within games!
I put deadpool into a link to the past. It was comical running around like that.
Love this episode. I have all the toys from this line.
I really do like the fan hacks, it gives it a plesent playing experience 😊😊😊
I would pay a rom hacker to make a version of Zombies Ate My Neighbors where you can swap weapons while paused.
Great game i would love to play again. It's been probably 25 years ago since i played that game but great memories though.
@@Xtuck420x it's available on Switch and PS! Great game, still hard as hell but very fair and beatable.
I was surprised by how much the music sounded like the Link's Awakening remake for Switch.
Is there a way to de-dither a ps2 free mcboot for ps1 games?
There is a Saroo cartridge on Saturn that doesn't require disassembling the disc reader
that was probably released after the original video.
Friendly feedback; to give some useful context perhaps update this to include the original video release dates in the timestamps? 😊
I can do that. It says it on screen at the start of each video too

Does removing dithering for PS1 games benefit people using CRTs?
I am glad you can get those flash cards bootleg but fully functional from China for way less. 😊
We mod because we must. ❤
This is fantastic!!! 😀
Removing the dither pattern on the painting in Castlevania Chronicles made the gradation appear more stepped in my opinion. (color banding) 🤔
At 7:40 which version of Tower of the Shadow of Death is that? Absolute banger.
I think its from Ys Origin
found it, its from the Ys I & II Chronicles release. The Origin version doesn't have the guitar and relies more on strings and horns.
Personally I strongly prefer to play retro games in their original state, just as they were back then. The only exceptions being translation hacks for Japanese only releases and Gameboy re-colorization hacks, which both are absolutely amazing.
I think you're just justifying owning an unnecessary pile of plastic.

Can you compare a Retrotink 5x + 4K Gamer Pro vs Retrotink 4K?
Great idea bundling these into one long video, but did you really need to repeat the intro a bunch of times?
The xbox one does not output a 4k signal. Its upscaled 1080p to 1440p. It's absolutely not 4k.
