Last Famicom game you played?

[Issun]

I just completed 'Bodycon Quest I - Abakareshi Musume Tachi'  
Going to tackle Metroid and Parutena next.

Well, I've been getting a lot of Famicom goodies in the mail, but I've been so busy with the Nintendo Age NES challenge I haven't even found time to test my new games. But I found a few minutes tonight to get my first taste of Don Doko Don 2, and it was everything I'd hoped it to be.

[L___E___T]

Last game I played was a hack I am working on

[nerdynebraskan]

Arkanoid II. I got a package of goodies from senseiman, and I bought a Vaus controller off of Ebay. I've been busy with my US games for the NA challenge, but I thought this was a good chance to test two new arrivals at the same time.

Oh, and LET, don't tease us like that. What are you hacking?

[L___E___T]

It's only a quick SMB hack - I'll post a video of it soon

[nerdynebraskan]

I guess I'll be looking forward to that. What made you decide to do a SMB hack?

I just played a bit of Galaxian, Higemaru Makaijima (sp?), and Challenger as dinner is soon and I didn't want to get committed to a full game. (I'm looking for excuses to test my new arrivals... kind of sad, eh?)

[P]

Interesting. I'm looking forward to that too. My only serious attempt at a hack is a small translation that I've yet to finish. Thought I was gonna make it public once I translated all the strings but I ran into trouble.

Last game I played: My own Famicom pong game . Finally started working on it for a bit again and thought I could finish it, but now my collision routine doesn't work.

[L___E___T]

Actually that makes me realise the Famicom is in need of a pong game - or a 2 player Arkanoid game isn't it?

As for my hack - I can't really answer that without giving it away.  All will become clear though in a week or so, forgive me until then (and don't hype it)!

Family Block / Thunder & Lightning is a two-player Arkanoid game, although it's co-op.

[L___E___T]

I don't think I'm familiar with it, but just checked it out, music is awesome



I might pick that up actually, is it rare?  Can't believe they risked releasing something like that after 1990 though!

No clue on the rarity, sorry.  I picked up the NES version from a GameStop when they were liquidating their NES assets

[nerdynebraskan]

I just played Uchuu Keibitai SDF for the first time. It's pretty impressive.

[L___E___T]

Ugh, I'm still waiting for my copy to arrive!  Should've been here ages ago, not impressed.

[P]

I just tried that too on the Everdrive to see MMC5 support. Amazing game!

Last game I played: My own Pong game again. I finally figured out why my collision detection didn't work! I had simply swapped the addition instructions and the subtraction instructions when comparing the paddles' and the ball's positions! I can't believe I didn't notice it earlier! lol

It's finally fully functional but I need to add a title screen and some more interesting bouncing physics before it can be called a game (it just bounces in four diagonal directions at the moment).

I just beat Nekketsu Kakutō Densetsu. Also, I was undefeated up until the last fight versus the tiger twins. Great game!
