If Castlevania: Symphony of the Night was called Metroidvania for ripping off the Metroid gameplay will Metroid Dread get called Metroident Evil for ripping off the Nemesis gameplay?

Note: I've played neither Nemesis nor Metroid Dread.

I got my 3DS set up with NES/SMS/MSX2/GB/TG16/TG16-CD/SNES/GEN/GG/GBA/Cave Story emulators.  I couldn't get MSX2's disk drive working though.

I think I like tinkering with software more than I like playing video games.

It's kinda crazy how many people are willing to do stuff like hack old MSX roms to translate them.

I have more fun modding games like Skyrim than actually playing them.  Something about the potential of it all is very satisfying.

In the end it's still just Skyrim, though.

I hear the Wii U makes for a great emulator machine once softmodded.  It also has a much larger virtual console library than the Switch does (currently).

I downloaded Ys I for the TurboGrafx and all the maps I've found online are all different. ???

i think the ys i map got expanded from the ys eternal release onwards, so it might be that?

just had a quick look and this looks like a p good guide for the turbografx version, nice handdrawn map aesthetic https://www.vgmaps.com/Atlas/TG16/Ys-BookI&II-Guide.pdf
though looks like some of the guide is cropped off

I spent a lot of effort turning my 3DS into a portable emulator machine and then Valve ruins everything.

Maybe.  If it requires booting to full Linux to run the emulators, that won't be as convenient as just using the native Steam launcher.  Might have to faff around with input drivers and such then too.

Did you preorder the thing?
