Nice choice with the beige floppy. I actually had that in the cart and was ready to purchase it, but I had forgotten about it and the price went up to $40. That's too much IMO. I had already bought the physical disc and cart for the PS4 & PS Vita, respectively, along with digital downloads for the PS3 & 3DS, so another $40 for the floppy didn't seem like a good idea. .. . It's a shame about the lack of sound card support.

RCR bums me out. It's just simply not fun to play. I really wanted to like this game, played through it multiple times on different platforms, but I really didn't enjoy anything other than the aesthetic and the references. Every gameplay switch it does feels horribly emulated, like they exist just to kinda shout out games the dev likes.

Oh man, this was just great. You get it. -you get it-. Yeah you can play a newer, slicker, more polished version of something, but that's not the point. It's the sheer novelty of seeing something recreated through digital witchcraft on an older/less optimal platform. This review really made me happy, honest it did.

I remember playing DOS games on CD-ROM back in the day. The only floppy disk games I know of was a Muppets game and a Barbie game, and I only played the Barbie one as a kid before I ended up wiping it somehow. Idk what happened to the other game. I do remember both of them came with a 3. 25 inch floppy version.

Have you considered reviewing -Shakedown: Hawaii- from Vblank? It is a 16 bit spiritual successor to retro city rampage made by the same developer, but it takes it's comic material from modern business practices and video game mechanics. It was even released on a limited edition physical copy.

How much space does it actually use on the floppy? I think it would be neat if they managed to squeeze in adlib or OPL3 sound support. Anyway, I think it's pretty awesome that they managed to pull this off, with more stuff going on and a higher framerate than most DOS games to boot.

Your comment on 'becuase you can' really stuck with me when this first came out sp much so I went ahead and tried to watch the movie zootopia on as many device as I can my most favourite or impressive to me at least is getting it running on a Nintendo Ds only tied with a Nokia N-gage.

This is very very cool. I wanted to like this game. I still do. Gameplay was ok but you get inundated with a million jokes and references. At first it is cool I get that reference and 10 seconds later 10 more references later it loses the appeal of getting it.

I still have a USB floppy drive. something I won't let go of as my last shred of beige box nostalgia. I need to acquire or build another Dos computer and go find some old games. Those were magic times, which I don't feel that much of any more.
