80’s 1337ness

Saw this pic on Digg and I just had to share it. I was about 9 at the time of this one so I didn’t have the rad stonewashed jeans or the pink t-shirt but I’m sad to say I’m pretty sure I had a neon hat. I can also remember crying because the video rental store didn’t have Duck Tales in. Good lord the 80’s scare me.

Chrono Trigger NES

“As of October 1, this game must be played in FCEU. The SFC version of the game is really similar to Final Fantasy, so the result should have been good. However, despite waiting a long time for this FC version to come out, it is something only really dedicated players will enjoy. To beat one monster could take as much as half an hour, and that is below boss difficulty. It requires more patience than what the average player has. ”

Wow, these Chinese pirate porters are pretty freaking hardcore, eh? And why in the hell would you port a SNES game to the NES? I mean a Playstation game to the NES is pretty cool and all but this is just plain silly.

NES Final Fantasy VII

Yep, some crazy fool over in Japan is porting the entirety of Final Fantasy VII to the NES. This guy updates his blog regularly with shots of new areas he’s ported, so if you’re a rabid FFVII fan you’ll want to bookmark it. Otherwise just enjoy the video above and realize that some fanboys have entirely too much time on their hands. EDIT: It is a widely available Chinese cart, this guy is just taking screens.
