@HoboKa Stop double posting. You don't need to bump a thread whenever you edit your post.

Start with OCR00600 and go up to 620, to start.

Can you work on the 500s, starting at 0511? Let me know if you need access to the form.

Sure it is. The forums see less activity than before but on Discord and social media the community is still quite active.

My brother picked one up at Target on Friday morning. I was at my dad's house last night and I played a little bit of it. I had never played the NES Classic so the interface was new to me. Pretty cool! The controllers feel nice and the emulation doesn't seem to have any issues as far as I could see. We tried out some Contra, and I also played some Super Mario World. The CRT filter is pretty nice, though I know I prefer a little bit more phosphor glow in my shaders. The rewind function is REALLY cool, but it's a little cumbersome in that you have to reset back to the home screen to do it, and the only way you can seemingly do that is by actually hitting the reset switch on the unit itself. I'm still gonna try to track one down; really wanna try Star Fox 2.

Sonic Mania is honestly the Sonic game I've been waiting for since Sonic & Knuckles. It's pitch-perfect in its physics and aesthetics. I picked it up on Switch and am constantly playing it. The music is incredible. I got all the Chaos Emeralds with every character. The only things left I need to do are get all the emblems from the Blue Sphere stages, but I'm probably not going to do that. I've played enough Blue Sphere in my life back when I was a kid. xD I hope they make another one.

Please don't use the forums as your game journal. I'm renaming this thread to SNES Classic so that it can be a discussion of the SNES Classic that just came out.

Nothing wrong with nostalgia. Plus it has Star Fox 2. Also it's not necessarily the same gamers complaining about originality that are after the revival stuff.

Really creative and transformative arrangement. Love the Mei-Percussion. Soundscape is classic and clean. Nothing wrong with building a track out of tried-and-true instrumentation. YES

I'm not hearing anything egregious here. Rocking, straightforward take on the source. Good energy. I dig it. YES

There's a lot of reverb on that arp. It's really washing things out, especially because it's sitting right in the midrange with all that reverb all over it. This is primarily a part-writing problem; if you want the arp to take center stage, then keeping it there in the midrange is fine; but if you want to use it as a background element underneath more important melodic lines, get it out of the midrange; bump it up an octave, pull back on the reverb, and lower the volume or velocities of the notes. Consider moving it to another instrument that's not flooding the soundscape with reverb. I think the arp is a real problem here. The arrangement I like, the DnB is good and I like the instrumentation choices. But that arp is killing me here. NO

This is a DVD drive. If you want a drive that supports Bluray, you need to buy a Bluray drive.

YES!

Yo this is great. Lyrics are on point. They don't sound awkward or like they were retrofitted onto the song at all. Feel natural.

Lyrics and performance are K.I.L.L.E.R. Such a great old-school vibe. Unfortunately, as Larry says, we need more overt source usage. Kris also makes a LOT of good points about how you could really take advantage of some vocal processing to give things more kick and emphasis. Hit us back with this. NO, resub

The sounds in this track are so nice but there's just that awful synth at 1:09 that just mars the whole thing. Nutritious and Jive have really good crits on production that you ought to take to heart, and I really recommend altering that synth. NO

I'm on board with the NOs. Love the arrangement, but there's a thinness to the drums but a loud squashiness with the strings. They also get SUPER mechanical around 3:20; very heavily exposed. Strings and mastering need a serious look. Everything else is that jpeg of Pacha from Emperor's New Groove doing that "When the Sun Hits the Ridge Just Right" face. NO

It's just too repetitive. The sound is good but the drums are pretty simplistic. Not much else to say that other Js haven't said already. NO

I'm in agreement with the YESes. I don't hear anything egregious happening in this track. Source usage is fine, and it's got a nice build to a pretty powerful climax. I'm into it. YES

No, you don't have to leave. I'm just genuinely confused as to why you even posted this thread. Not being facetious.

I'm confused as to what this post is about.

You can post videos here.

OC ReMix and Smash the Record 2017 Collaboration OC ReMix is partnering with Smash the Record to produce an EP of remixes that will play on the for-charity stream during matches and speedruns. This EP is targeted for release on September 14th. I need remixes yesterday. Here are remixes I need: Must Haves Game/Series Claimed Status Super Smash Bros. Melee unclaimed pending Super Smash Bros. for Wii U unclaimed pending Mega Man Series (Preferably X) Sixto Sounds pending Kirby Series (Any) unclaimed pending Super Mario Series (Any) unclaimed pending Would Like to Have Game/Series Claimed Status Castlevania: Symphony of the Night unclaimed pending F-Zero GX unclaimed pending Metroid Series (Preferably Prime) Sir_NutS pending There’s also a large schedule of games that will be played on-stream at the event. If anyone would like to do a remix from one of these games, please claim it here. Deadline on this is really tight guys. We aren’t doing a physical but I’d like to get music locked down and reviewed by mid-August. Smash the Record benefits St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital. This album will be released on the day of the event and we’ll be sharing and promoting StR throughout the weekend. I think this would be really nice thing to get involved with. Hopefully we can get some great music going.

Really solid all around. I'm not too bothered by the arrangement's variation. Really enjoyed this one quite a bit. Voice is great. YES
