Topic: Halloween 2-Day Castlevania Live Stream

It could sound strange, but you're willing to play some hack or fangame too? Or you only play on consoles so you can blow the cartridges and feel the nostalgia?

[uzo]

Fan games that are not rom hacks yes, but the legality of some emulation is too iffy and I'd rather avoid it if possible.

That said I own and dumped all my PSP isos, so that is fair game for me to use a PSP emulator with them to get a high resolution, provided the emulator works for the game. It currently doesn't seem to support DXC correctly though (really bad graphic glitches). However I can hook my PSP-Slim to the tv if all else fails, and video capture that.

The way I have my entertainment system setup makes it extremely easy to capture video from a wide range of inputs, and this weekend I'm going to be verifying which consoles I can indeed capture from. Then I can get a better idea of which games I can play on stream. And yes, that means I will be using original hardware where possible, so no save state or cheating bullshit or any of that.

[Lelygax]

So I suggest CV2 Revamped.

A worse looking and worse playing version of the same broken game? Not a chance in hell, sorry.

I'm considering doing Lecarde Chronicles, since I never got around to actually finishing it. That could take some time though, being difficult and pretty long. We'll see how it shakes out. It's an amazing game.

IDK, never played this game for more than 20 minutes, but I've seen people talking good things about it here on the dungeon. I know it isnt perfect but atleast metroidquest did finish it and tried do something for us, if atleast he fixed all bugs...

You like Kid Dracula?

[uzo]

Good point. I never really played Kid Dracula other than trying it for a few moments. What version is better? NES or GB?

[Lelygax]

They have different stories, IIRC Kid Dracula GB is a sequel to the NES version. The two play the same but the NES version have colors.

I'd possibly be interested...where/how would this be possible?  (Did I miss that somewhere?)

Day:

UPDATE:
October 31st AND November 1st
Decided to do both Halloween Night and the next night (so Friday AND Saturday nights), since people may be busy one or the other. Bonus points for showing up for both and wasting your life away.

Time:

Undetermined currently. I would expect 7PM EST would be Friday's starting time. (11PM GMT)

Place: Twitch, uzo will post a link when its on I think.

[uzo]

No sense in hiding the twitch account. Here it is: http://www.twitch.tv/marcdwyz/profile

The stream will be there on the noted date and time.

You may also catch me doing unrelated streams and testing between now Friday.

[theANdROId]

Ah, Twitch...cool.  I've heard of it, but never actually checked it out.

[X]

Did you decide on any other CV games to stream uzo? I'm kinda at a loss for what to recommend you play.

[Lelygax]

Now that I've remembered, you should give a go on Castlevania Fighter too, no need for a nightmare run.

[uzo]

Good call. I haven't played that in a while.

And no, I haven't thought of the full list of games yet. I had a lot of sudden work this weekend which got in the way.

Finally a link to twitch!
Don't worry if you missed the broadcast (for those living on another timezone), you can always view them whenever you want.
