魂斗羅 [Kontora] (1988) [Famicom]

Yes, it is Contra again. It is a part of Contra Anniversary Collection so i’m gonna play what i paid for. But not in Contra Anniversary Collection, obviously. I’ve played Contra (Japan).nes ROM on FCEUX 2.6.6 I don’t get it, why did they remove the cool cutscenes and the map in the other versions? Those make it look significantly better. I also saw people cleaim that this version is significantly…

ドラキュラII 呪いの封印 [Dracula 2 noroi no fuin]

Instead of my Steam version with only one save, i’ve launched the ROM called Castlevania II – Simon’s Quest (USA).nes on FCEUX 2.6.1 But shimmer, jitter, wobble real got to me, no matter what integer options i did pick in the settings. So i’ve installed 2.6.6 and nothing has improved. Hey, but at least i finally can bind hotkeys to xinput. You start the game and you are already in a friendly…

Super 魂斗羅 [Kontora] (1990)

I’ve played ROM called Super C (USA).nes on FCEUX 2.6.1 because my Contra Anniversary Collection on Steam can’t run full-screen and has crappy saving system. It’s an action game where most of the levels are a platformer with guns, and some of the levels are a top down shooter. And both those genres are terrible without mouse controls. You have to move in the direction you want to shoot, instead…

Barbie (1991) [NES]

I expected this version it to be superior to the DOS release, to have better animations with smooth scrolling and to have responsive controls, but no this one is not better. So i started playing the ROM Barbie (USA).nes on FCEUX 2.6.1 and the second platform is already broken. It’s virtually impossible to make that jump the hitbox is not there. So, i’ve tried the ROM Barbie (USA) (Rev 1).nes and…

悪魔城伝説 [Akumajo densetsu]

I own Castlevania Anniversary Collection on Steam but i’m not gonna bother with that bare-bones emulator when i have other options. I’ve played the ROM called Castlevania III – Dracula’s Curse (USA).nes on FCEUX 2.6.1 (TCRF says that yankee version plain sᴜᴄᴋs more in comparison and that i’ve made a mistake.) The game starts with a rather long seeneemahteek cutscene for this hardware. It’s just…

ファミマガ Disk Vol. 5: ぷよぷよ [Puyo Puyo]

Somehow my FCEUX 2.6.1 has lost my FDS bios to battery error 02, so i had to find another one in a very obscure place. I’ve played the ROM called Famimaga Disk Vol. 5 – Puyo Puyo (Japan) (Disk Writer).fds And this game often pesters you to swap the disk around. Like, you insert it and after showing the pointless company logos you already need to change the side. What was the point then if the…

Probotector

I’ve played the ROM called Probotector (Europe).nes on FCEUX 2.6.1 Basically it’s just a re-skinned version of the cut-down USA version of the Famicom port of the Contra. It looks a bit weirder and it runs a bit slower, which makes it a bit easier and therefore a bit better.

Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers (1990)

I’ve used the ROM called Chip ‘n Dale – Rescue Rangers (USA).nes on FCEUX 2.6.1 I only ever played it in co-op, with people who never landed it to me. Don’t remember if i never asked, or what. This platforming game has a silly but a unique and cool mechanic of boxes manipulation. And someone conveniently left thousands of rat-sized crates everywhere. The game starts kinda fair but there are no…
