I spend many hours playing Mega Drive version. I didn't really understand how to play it, but I think one time I was lucky to win full game.

Star Control and Starflight were two games I had to add to my Genesis collection back in the late 90s when I started collecting. So much time on these...😅

Man I recall trying so hard to understand and get through star flight at 8 years old. Way too advanced though I know i loved the combat. That and Buck Rogers are the two that stumped me. Now as a adult maybe I'll have a better chance

- My favorite version is Genesis - Can’t wait for the comparison of aspect ratio consoles: 4x3 vs Pixel Perfect (for example: NES/SNES [8x7])

@CptJistuce 6 ай бұрын

Gonna blow your mind. 4:3 IS pixel-perfect. Super Nintendo just doesn't have square pixels.

@HyperMarsonPlumber 6 ай бұрын

@@CptJistuce No dude, it’s stretched to 4x3 in the original consoles. The correct aspect ratio (Pixel Perfect) of NES & SNES is 8x7. so you can only use Pixel Perfect on emulators, NES/SNES classic, Analogue consoles & Switch Online (not on the original consoles).

@@HyperMarsonPlumber This is a common misconception, but the idea that pixels are always square is very modern and has only become an ironclad rule in the HDTV era. The Super Nintendo graphics chipset was designed to fill a 4:3 video frame with 512x240 pixels. This sounds very wrong because the most common video modes black out the first and last 8 lines, and double-strike horizontally, leaving an effective resolution of 256x224 that isn't truly 4:3 because it is slightly letterboxed, but is much closer to 4:3 than 8:7. Had Nintendo's engineers wanted square pixels, they could have designed the hardware to do that. 320x240 gets you square pixels, as does putting 256x224 into a smaller portion of the line(typically inset into a frame of BG color on hardware that does this). They didn't do that, because they wanted 256-pixel lines that went across the entire screen for whatever reason(save RAM, make math easier, maintain continuity with the Regular Nintendo are all plausible reasons). But the hardware outputs non-square pixels by design, not because Nintendo didn't know how TVs work.

@CptJistuce 6 ай бұрын

@@HyperMarsonPlumber That's a common misconception, but square pixels were not at all the standard back then. "Pixels are square" didn't become an ironclad law until the rise of HDTV. On analog TV, a pixel's width is a direct function of how long the hardware draws it for. Nintendo could've made pixels narrower by drawing them for less time. They would've had to put more pixels on the line, or include padding to avoid breaking the timings. They chose to make 256(or 512) pixels that covered the full length of a scanline, and their engineers were not ignorant of how televisions worked, so they know they were making a system with very wide pixels. (Sega, by contrast, chose to make the Genesis fill a scanline with 320 pixels, giving them much squarer pixels. And going back farther, the Commodore 64 used 256 pixels, but significant padding on the sides.)

La de ratos y troleos con las naves pequeñas que hicimos el fran y yo con este juego, pero ya en PC, lo tuve que jugar tarde , porque el ps1 con 1mg de memoria ( FLIPA ) , me lo compraron en 1992, navidades, 1000€ de la epoca con pantalla VGA de 14", un ibm ps/1, menudo timo. No sabía ni que estaba en spectrum, q dicho sea de paso, me parece que su principal cualidad, q sería la velocidad , se la han ventilado, parece algo común en todas lsa versiones de 8bits. De todos modos, me tengo q quedar con la version de PC, vga, es la que recuerdo, la que jugué, aunque la de megadrive, tuvo q ser divertida, sobre todo jugarlo con el mando, y la chenjetsu, que parece el titulo del ultimo album de los Iron Maiden Xd Xd. He estado de viaje estas semanas, luego me pasaré a ver los demás videos. Un abrazo.

Bueno, si estuviste de vacaciones te lo perdono ;). Espero que las hayas disfrutado. Yo como siempre las empiezo en un par de semanas al terminar el año académico, que soy profe… No era mucho de estrategia en aquellos tiempos y este juego apenas me sonaba, la verdad. A los únicos del género que recuerdo haberme viciado bastante fueron uno llamado Centurion, al Populous, Warcraft 1 y a algún Sim City, poca cosa más... No recuerdo mucho las especificaciones de mis primeros PCs, pero diría que a principios de los 90 tenía en casa un 286, también con pantalla VGA y PC Speaker de la marca Phillips. El otro canal lo tengo abandonado, lo sé, pero es que me siento exhausto ahora mismo y lleva demasiado curro comparado con esto (he vuelto al mando del canal, por cierto xD). Tengo que encontrar un formato más fácil… Además, estoy programando un juego, que llevo eones sin hacer nada. ¡Un abrazo!
