WarpRattler's Wet Dream:

WarpRattler · « **Reply #871 on:** February 20, 2010, 09:05:08 PM »

Ugh. No, I like having space on my hard drive and desktop.

That said, I can identify six games there that I have installed: Utawarerumono (a strategy RPG/eroge), Battle Moon Wars (an all-ages doujin Super Robot Wars clone/parody/homage involving TYPE-MOON characters), Fate/stay night, Fate/hollow ataraxia, CROSS†CHANNEL (the game NANACA†CRASH's characters came from), and Sengoku Rance (a wargame/eroge). I'm also surprised by the non-presence of certain highly-popular titles, such as Ever 17 (unless the Japanese version has a different icon, which is entirely possible; Ever 17 is an all-ages visual novel) and Tsukihime (as well as its sequels).

I think the guy from "No More Heroes" wants your computer.

I did have this cute National Geographic one of a cheetah with her cub.

But now I'm using this wallpaper of Kevin and Carl from "Up". I've had bluish wallpapers for a while now, so it's refreshing to have something with a bit of color in it.

"the guy" :(

WeeGee's pic is the first I've seen in this thread (besides me) actually using their desktop. If your desktop has empty space, you're doing it wrong.

You say that as though the average PC owner downloads every other program offered to them online. I haven't installed a single computer game since SNES9X became [almost] obsolete due to the Wii's Virtual Console, and I don't utilize any programs besides iTunes, IE and MS Works enough to warrant making shortcuts for them.

I have a dock so I can start programs without minimizing other programs. So, I don't have a full desktop.

I keep all my programs within those two folders on the desktop.

Do keep in mind that my netbook's normal resolution is 1024x600, not the 1280x960 displayed in these pictures (taken with the netbook outputting video to an external monitor). Between games and utilities, I'd have 123 more icons on my desktop than I do by keeping everything within those two folders, which would be downright impossible at the built-in monitor's resolution.

Well there's always SNES9xGX.
Or you could own a real cartridge. (teehee)

Okay, fine, Travis Touchdown. Don't have a bovine.

And Ness is right. SNES9X is not obsolete. ...and I don't think ZSNES is either.

But I will throw my head into a trash compactor if Nintendo puts "Mr. Nutz" onto the Virtual Console. I played that recently and... it sucked. It's unfairly tough, it's the only version of the game to lack passwords (unless you put in a cheat to fake your way through it), you can barely find any info on it. I really want AVGN to review it, but he doesn't have the game, so... someone send him that cart, please.

I'd put ZSNES at less obsoleteness than SNES9x. But it's been a while since I've used either (since I own real games)

I had JNES. *Shrugs*

That isn't a SNES emulator.

Weegee · « **Reply #883 on:** February 22, 2010, 10:15:46 PM »

Alright; fine. Aside from a handful of otherwise-unplayable SNES gems, there's little reason for an emulator to be hogging data or memory or whatever on our decade-old computer.

The term you're looking for is "hard drive space" and it's probably taking up like 10MB max.
