APOLOGIZE

Yeah, I have what I need backed up. The hardest part about archiving and preserving is I need to play and beat/100% the game personally in order to justify storing it. I do not judge a game by popular opinions, hear say, gameplay footage, and any other means. I have missed out on a lot of Playstation 1 and 2 games due to switching PC during the n64/Ps1 era of consoles. I have completed what I needed for consoles (Nes,Snes,N64,Pc Engine, Sega MegaDrive, MasterSystem, Gamecube, Wii-Pretty much 2 games) as for Ps3 and WiiU haven't really gotten around to those. My PC collection has always been my main priority.

Okay, here is a topic that some anons might find interesting. Over 10 years ago a game was released called UB Funkeys. This game was exclusively for PC and basically proto-skylanders type game written in flash.

Over the years since the game's cancellation, fans have made some serious progress in getting the game to function after its abandonment.There have also been attempts to create remakes and new fangames but they don't get very far.

To play, you need(ed) the USB hub pictured above, and the magnetic Funkey vinyl figures that it reads. However, there have been such strides in the community that the game can be played without a hub, using all Funkeys available.

This link has all the materials you need to set up the game. The UB Funkeys subreddit (really the only thing reddit is good for is ridiculously obscure shit like this) has some other tools, for getting it to work without a hub, unlocking all microtransactions, and maybe even running on (((Windows 10))).

https://www.invidio.us/watch?v=0Hp8aCropz0

The main thing interesting about this game that keeps me interested today is the artstyle. The game itself is pretty low quality, but the Funkey characters themselves have very fun designs. The artist who worked on the world maps was also very talented.

Hoarding keeps old curios alive and the past so go fuck yourself. There is nothing wrong with hoarding goods. Without hoarding there would be no flea markets, no nostalgia, no understanding of the near past, no respect. Hoarding is mankind's method of preserving memory manifested in one of it's disposable spawns for the service of everyone. Hoarding only becomes a mental illness when you are actually hoarding garbage and I don't mean garbage as in "one man's trash is another's treasure" I just mean garbage broken shit, napkins, actual garbage. Most people who are labelled "Hoarders" are actually just autiste curio collectors and scalpers.

If you look into the history of Tetris, it's one of those games you shouldn't go out of your way to preserve. Not even the LJN version. Fuck the Tetris company and ElORG.

Anyone know about dumping DS ROMs? Specifically DSiWare. Before the DSi Shop closed, a made an effort to download every DSiWare game and app developed/published by Nintendo, including the Japanese shop.

Now, I know at least some of these are still accessible via the 3DS eShop, such as Atsumeru Egaocho and Nintendoji, but there's still a lot of Japanese DSiWare that I don't think has been dumped anywhere, and I'd rather be safe than sorry.
