  It’s not tentacles. A futanari is a woman with a (usually rather large) penis.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How many of you are using everdrive?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  EverDrive is pretty great. The prices are definitely premium, but you do get a reliable, quality product. Just make sure you’re either buying directly from Krikzz or an authorized reseller. There are a lot of clones floating around on certain sites (such as AliExpress) that are of varying quality. Additionally, the clones usually run a hacked firmware and trying to use the official firmware will brick it.

  It’s worth noting that the N64 and Genesis both have proper EverDrive alternatives. For the N64 there’s the SummerCart64, which is an open source project and seems to have some features the ED64X7 doesn’t (like 64DD support). As for the Genesis there’s the MegaSD from Terraonion. I haven’t used either of them, so I don’t have much of an opinion on which is best.

  It’s called a Concornde.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Plasma TV recommendations? Looking for a decent 50+ inch display for older consoles.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Sceptre’s pretty good, but their speakers sound cheap. I recommend using an AV receiver and external speakers if going with them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨They know where to come back when they figure themselves out⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I believe that’s the Grindr logo.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are people from Moscow and Versailles called?⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I believe people from Moscow are called Muscovites. I don’t know about Versailles though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Yes, in the 1980s we downloaded games from the radio⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This reminds me that I once read about a Thompson Twins game that was distributed as a flexi disc record. In order to actually play the game it had to be copied to a cassette first. Apparently it’s pretty rare, since it was only available as a bonus with a specific issue of a magazine.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are there really only a few New 3DS exclusive games?⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This is correct, however SNES Virtual Console games were also exclusive and a number of games were enhanced on New consoles.

  If you’re looking to save a bit of money, you might want to consider a Japanese console and modding it. 3DS prices are pretty crazy at the moment and no one knows if they’ll ever come down.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PS2 Memory Cards⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s recommended that you use a dedicated card for FreeMCBoot.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Question about the ds lite, dsi, and gba games.⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  A flashcart is definitely the best option for compatibility. Just one thing you should know about playing GBA on a DS or 3DS is that it lacks an extension port, so any link cable functionality is out of the question. As for the screen, the DS(i) has a slightly higher resolution, so there’ll be a black border around the picture, but no stretching or anything. The 3DS has a much higher resolution screen and by default it scales the image up, but not to a whole number and that makes it blurry. The 3DS does that to DS games too, but can play in the original resolution by holding Start or Select when launching a game (you would need to do this every time, but I think there’s a way to make it permanent with custom firmware).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's your favorite Pokémon Game?⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Crystal is very special to me. I always felt like I was “wrong” as a child for not liking “girl things.” It was the first game I ever played that offered a female protagonist. That was something that told me that I was okay the way I am. I know it’s kind of silly, but it really helped me become comfortable with myself.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are some old freeware PC games you've kept playing over the years?⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Irisu Syndrome! is a favorite of mine. It’s only from 2008, so I personally don’t consider it retro. It’s tricky to learn at first since it doesn’t tell you anything about how to play and I don’t recall there being a manual. It’s also one of those games that you can’t really say too much about without spoiling things.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Retro Warriors 498 - WonderSwan⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m aware of it, but I haven’t played it yet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Retro Warriors 498 - WonderSwan⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I had been wanting one of these for years, so I finally picked one up thanks to some Christmas money. I put in an IPS screen, some pads to fix the power button, a new lens, and got some rechargeable AA batteries. I have three games so far, Klonoa: Moonlight Museum, Digital Monster Ver. WonderSwan, and Final Fantasy IV. I’ve mostly been playing Klonoa, since it’s the main reason I wanted a WonderSwan in the first place (also all those Digimon games). I might get myself a Flash Masta next time they’re available to play some fan translations and maybe some more absurdly expensive titles.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'Blood Blockade Battlefront' Manga Will Get an Omnibus Release in July⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This is great. I’ve been hoping for something like this since the original releases have gotten so expensive.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Don't Forget The Sega 32X Turns 30 This Year, Too | Time Extension⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Knuckles’ Chaotix

  It’s one of the more obscure Sonic titles since it was a 32X exclusive and it’s never been rereleased. It doesn’t really take advantage of the 32X’s capabilities and it’s generally regarded as being on the easy side, but I think it’s worth checking out.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Where can I find the highest quality Star Trek: The Original Series?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Assuming you mean legally, the best options are Paramount+ (or whichever service it’s on outside the US) or on Blu-ray. None of the television series are available in 4K to my knowledge, but the movies are.
