Just got in my Toaplan Vol4. I was super excited to play V-V again, but these goobs only have the US/Grind Stormer rom on there, which has a horrible power-up system opposed to the Jpn version. Ugh.

Lately I've been using the EverSD again to make custom curated collection "cartridges"

It's nice but it has limitations. I needed two Micro SD cards - one with all the official carts backed up because Full Void and other games running natively on Linux will crash the console on SD cards over 64GB. So I designed a dummy cart to put in slot two, that unfolds and holds the other SD card.

[fart noise] really not excited about the last few releases outside of Toaplan. So much potential. Need a DOS greatest hits or something. Apogee collection! Come on

Blaze needs to figure out how to reprint these faster. Once something goes out of stock, it seems to stay out for months. Case in point is the relatively new Data East Arcade Collection 2. Check out the ebay prices on that one. I like to buy in batches, but the ones I want never seem to be in stock at the same time.

Sigh. It wouldn't be an Atari arcade cart if it didn't have a bunch of games with controls that may or may not work well on an Evercade controller. Hopefully they'll have better luck here than on Atari arcade 1, but this is an easy pass for me.
Some details: Rescue and Mine Field are dual stick games, similar to Robotron. Moon war has an analog roller thing, similar to Major Havoc. Dark planet has a spinner, similar to Tempest. Fire Truck is quite unique with two steering wheels, and was intended to have one player on each wheel to control the front and back of the truck.

They patched in analog stick support near the end of 2024, so at least on the home console you should be able to play most of the formerly unplayable Atari arcade games. Doesn't help with handheld controls, of course, but it's something.

As expected, another Tomb Raider cart. This one seems like a much shittier value, though. Last time it was three games for 25 bucks, this time it's two games for 30. The least the cheap motherfuckers could've done is give us the three GBC/GBA games, but they couldn't even bother with that.

It's really better these days to just ignore anything made before the the reboot.There were more than 3 Tomb Raider games???!!!

The reboot is just Uncharted, though. Exact same game.

I don't think any of the Uncharted or Tomb Raider games, old or new, were all that good. Then or now.
