@reddeadriv The question would be which App Store would be installed and supported by default. Does it support Google services and Google App Store? Will it have a Sony Store?

@boredtortoise And last, destroy the technology. Mission completed.

@hedge I tried one with an AI: shitty logo for a company worst company ever i hate it useless dumb die forever

@trashhalo Soon an AI program will be generated to oversight AI generated articles from Reddit. omg...what a future.

@Phyzaks For anyone not aware, there is a re-release of Chrono Cross last year! It's available on Steam and consoles: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1133760/CHRONOCROSSTHERADICALDREAMERSEDITION/ (even Steam Deck verified) The graphics and art is upscaled, partly with AI, and the results got mixed receptions. And "Radical Dreamers" is included as well, according to the Steam page. Just wanted to point this out, in case emulation is complicated for some.

@PrinceHabib72 Chrono Trigger also had New Game+, which basically created the term for RPGs. I played another JRPG long before Chrono Trigger, where enemies was visible on the playfield in dungeons: the infamous Final Fantasy Mystic Quest (fantastic soundtrack BTW).

@Xylinna Chrono Trigger also had New Game+, which basically created the term for RPGs. I played another JRPG long before Chrono Trigger, where enemies was visible on the playfield in dungeons: the infamous Final Fantasy Mystic Quest (fantastic soundtrack BTW).

@Xylinna I did a post a few years ago: https://thingsiplay.game.blog/2020/02/11/what-to-do-after-chrono-trigger/

I know, but I add the id (its automated anyway) because it makes it a bit easier to follow discussion if others reply too. In example the upvotes will change the order (in my view at least) and I would need to scroll up and down to see who the answer was to. Doesn't matter too much, but if it does not hurt, then I would continue like this. Or does it somehow spam the notification? Then I would reconsider this approach, as my goal is not to annoy anyone.

As for the legal stuff; there is not much else to say for us about the situation.

@Creesch Not everyone agrees with this approach. That's why it is controversial. But fact is, it is a risk to include the keys for anyone hosting the emulator, until it's crisp and clear decided by court or by Nintendo. Until then we (the community), or the dev team, nor any lawyer knows with certainty if this is allowed or not. And that is the problem; we don't know.

@Kolanaki Cracking encryption is considered illegal I think. The only safe way I see is by providing keys to unlock, without breaking the lock. But I don't know enough about this material and just speculate around it.

@Kolanaki BIOS is software that can be rebuild. It's always better to use the original firmware and BIOS for maximum compatibility. The Wii keys on the other hand are not software you can rebuild. These are key codes to unlock a protection, something like a serial key. So the situation is much different from the Bleem thing.

@nekusoul I want to add that the mentioned Wii keys was always controversial. Dolphin core is part of RetroArch and the RetroArch team never included those keys, because they knew someday it would only mean trouble. That is why Dolphin is still in RetroArch available on Steam. That's why the installation of Dolphin core on RetroArch is a bit more involved, because they do it the safe way. Glad this project will continue to exist.

@catfishman I'm a long time fan (6 & 7 my favorites, I know not very unique opinion) and have no interested into the newer games. From the reviews, looks like 16 is not for me (as 15 wasn't). Did you play 12? That is a very traditional Final Fantasy.

@DragonAce Okay, but that was not my point. One can improve usability of a decentralized systems. It does not need to be a bad user experience and waste of time.

@Kodemystic That's a poor excuse for not improving.

@Kodemystic You are not wrong, but that is also a bad user experience and waste of time.

I wish a user could only register 1 community/magazine. And to register more, at least some time should pass and maybe requires at least minimum of certain "Reputation Points" and follower. I don't believe this is the best solution, but better than a wild west, and it would slow down the register spam.

@ktr41n Same problem in Kbin. Some people register a ton of magazines (known as community) and do not moderate at all.
