Be careful using Genesis controllers on other consoles. Some consoles (i.e. Vectrex) use the same connector, but are wired differently. It is possible to short out the system using a Genesis controller.

The save delete recovery thing isn't really a new discovery... I VERY distinctly recall my oldest brother showing me this feature back when I was in middle school, so like 99-2001 timeframe. He learned about it from a FAQ/Help article in an old issue of PSM Magazine. I have a VERY clear memory of seeing and using that feature on 2 occasions. I was from 10-12 years old.

I played Snail Maze back in the days when I owned the original SMS for HOURS until I finally beat the game. It was brutal. If you didn't carry over enough extra time through the game, there is no way you can finish the last several stages. The last maze was just 2 spiral. But if you guessed wrong, you won't have enough time to back track and pick the correct path so you have to start from stage 1 all over again.

Also, I'm pretty sure I saw elsewhere that the DK bug thing was true, but the expansion pak didn't fix it, it just delayed it. The bug was a memory leak that they weren't able to track down before release; without the pak, the game would crash relatively often, but with it, the game would have to play twice as long on average before crashing. I remember a video somewhere detailing the Pak itself.
@joshuawilson6194
@joshuawilson6194 2 жыл бұрын
Yeah, the marketing for dk64 was something along the lines about the pack being required due to increased graphics, but in reality, it just delayed the game crashing due to the memory leak by multiple hours. rare fixed the memory leak in the game engine when working on one of the banjo games, and that's why they don't require the pack.

You missed one for the N64, if you hold L+R+Start while its turning on that will reset the center of your thumb stick which was used to solve stick drift way back in the day. It's pretty sad we can't do this now with the Switch which still suffers from the same problem over time!
@thesynthax7948
@thesynthax7948 Жыл бұрын
the stick calibration in the system settings on the Switch does the same exact thing, but JoyCons and the Pro controller use a different joystick technology than the N64 which is more compact and precise, at the cost of reliability and longevity. Unfortunately that means that just recentering the stick won't work, as the resistance readings of the potentiometers aren't consistently wrong, they jump around too much.

Well, most likely this feature isn't "good" enough to actually be usable with your ps1 console. it might have corrupted your save file when getting it back. or it would only work x % of the time. The devs knew it was a thing and chose not to give that information to the consumer, so i can imagine it didn't really work as intended. But i don't know, i'm just speculating here, since save file recovery is a pretty cool thing to have. So yeah, don't feel super bad about it.

Do NOT plug in your Genesis controller to a Commodore 64!! This will ruin it, and can potentially ruin other machines as well. And why is the expansion pak bringing out the best of the N64 a secret console feature??

Meh, it's only the same thing as when you delete something on a PC. Even if you delete it from the Recycle Bin, which in theory means it's gone for good, it can still be recovered using special software.

"Deleting" a file usually means only removing it from the file table. The actual file data is still there, but is treated as free space and will get overwritten eventually. This is why the longer you wait to try to recover it the less likely it will be successful.

By the mid-1990s, most personal computers had between 2 and 64 megabytes of RAM (toward the latter if you did a lot of multitasking, toward the former if you mostly had an MS-DOS system). Kilobytes of RAM were more of an 80s thing.

The extra RAM in the N64 was also helpful in Turok. The fog to limit render distance made the game pretty claustrophobic (similar to Silent Hill), but wasn't so bad with the expansion pack.

My cousin and I found out about that Sega controller thing with the Atari almost 20 years ago. Pretty cool controlling those games with a bit more ease. My other cousin and I found out you can practically go God mode megaman 3 on the NES by having player 2 hold left on a joystick controller while player controls megaman. Don't know why that worked but you can't jump into a hole and not die, just jump back up.

Some of this "years later" were actually very known back then, at least here in Brazil. - Hidden maze in Master System 1's bios? Check, it was even advertised on the console's box. - Genesis' controller being compatible with other 9 pins? Check, I've played a lot of Atari 2600 with my Genesis controller (it made playing Decathlon so much easier...), used it with Master System and also some other computers. - Dreamcast' s alternative bios with Puyo Puyo? Check. It was called "the last gift" back then. - Xbox's shortcuts? Most of them are listed on the manual (the virtual / guide one).

Back in around 1995 I did notice my Mega Drive gamepad was kinda working on the Atari. It was fun for about 30 minutes, since it did not work that great, and then I never tried it again. It's fun to see this so many years later as a secret feature that I knew about 25 years ago. lol

About the memory recovery function for PS1, it was actually listed on the Japanese manual, so the feature is knowed for the Japanese for years. For some reason they remove the text from the manual for the international version. That's why English users only find it out recently.
