Xenon Odyssey Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 This game is amazing. Yet I suck. And apparently I have a controller that has the UP and Start buttons wired together so it randomly pauses. Sam, you need to do a song for them! Quote
SoulinEther Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 If you had a dance pad and a game pad in your hand, this should qualify as extreme mind-boggling exercise. This shit is hard... more like, I fail epically. Me and my gamecube controller. Quote
JCvgluvr Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 This game makes me wish I had the software necessary to run it... Quote
SoulinEther Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 This game makes me wish I had the software necessary to run it... But why? the question shouldn't be about software (they provide you with links to NES emulators) - the question should be: do you have the hardware (real gamepad) and the skills to master it? Quote
jmr Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 This game makes me wish I had the software necessary to run it...There are a few NES emulators linked on the d-pad hero page. I'd recommend Nestopia.It's not like emulation is a forbidden topic on OCR or anything... (edit: that emulator list is kinda out of date, but still.) Quote
JCvgluvr Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 I've never emulated before, and I have a certain apprehension towards the idea of trying it out...*sheepish grin* Quote
SoulinEther Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 I've never emulated before, and I have a certain apprehension towards the idea of trying it out...*sheepish grin* Well, your only other option is to buy an NES, find a way to put this game on a cartridge and tour the USA with the fruits of your dreams on a Radio Flyer - some parts made in japan. Sorry but this is dying for a fix. I've never masturbated before, and I have a certain apprehension towards the idea of trying it out...*sheepish grin* fixed. (though there's nothing wrong with that apprehension. trust me) Quote
LuketheXjesse Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 If I didn't [censored because big brother is watching] I'd be pretty miserable. Also guitar hero Nes. Also there's games I would never had played if not for emulation. Quote
SoulinEther Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 Damn it i have to save this topic from my derailment.!! Sweet Child o' Mine is easier for me to play on a real keyboard than on this gamepad :/ The dev(s) asked a question on the blog regarding the difficulty of the game. Personally I think it's a bit challenging, especially since there's no easy/medium difficulty levels to really introduce you to the concept of the game like DDR and Guitar Hero each have. Quote
PrototypeRaptor Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 This might be the most frustrating game I've ever played. There's 10 different possibilities for each button! ARRRGHHHHH However, it was all worth it for the most awesome arrangement of harder, better, faster, stronger in the history of awesome. I'll be coming back to this. Quote
JCvgluvr Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 Well, your only other option is to buy an NES, find a way to put this game on a cartridge and tour the USA with the fruits of your dreams on a Radio Flyer - some parts made in japan. You forgot the option where I just never play this game. Sorry but this is dying for a fix.fixed. (though there's nothing wrong with that apprehension. trust me) :-x:-x Quote
SoulinEther Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 You forgot the option where I just never play this game. Er, well, there's that lol. :-x:-x ^^ Quote
Murmeli Walan Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 So yeah, I pretty much mirror what other people have said: the game is awesome, but it's pretty damn hard. I can't get a single medal on anything. The 8bit covers are awesome (in fact, I had downloaded SnoBro's Sweet Child O' Mine NES rom just last month before I'd even heard of this game), but what's up with the a-Ha track? Maybe I'm not such a big fan of that band, but that's a pretty obscure song to go with. I could understand not wanting to use Take On Me, but how about The Living Daylights? I like that one. But yeah, I sure hope they get on board and make Dpad Hero II even more awesome. Quote
sephfire Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 I started Sweet Child o' Mine thinking: "Those wimps. This isn't hard." Then the notes with the arrows started showing up, and I was like: "Oh." Quote
