Here in Ohio, FuncoLand and Electronics Boutique were the national game store chains in town until GameStop bought them both and took over their stores. Funco was known for their lists of trade-in values in magazines in the days before VGPC. Now it's come full circle and GameStop is turning some stores into the 90s FuncoLand stores they replaced.

Mine points to a Tumblr blog that I don't really use anymore because I'm posting here instead. I ought to turn it into a more professional portfolio page and use some of the other ideas in this thread. I have email at that domain thanks to my legacy free Google Workspace I've had for like 15 years.

no English localization

That's a shame. I loved Working Designs's voice acting in the Sega CD version. They even added voiceovers to lines that weren't voiced in the Japanese version. I wonder who even owns the rights to that localization nowadays.

Tekken? Nah. It's a four button game, and you only need to map the shoulder buttons if your character has a good move with a weird button combination like Square+Circle. Street Fighter Alpha 3 really needs all 6 buttons, though.

You might want to search for a RetroAchievements collection of PlayStation Portable games.

  • Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection and Street Fighter Alpha 3 Max are in top shape on the PSP with extra characters and decent single player content.

  • Rock Band Unplugged is a stealth sequel to Frequency and Amplitude, worth a try for juggling a whole band's worth of instruments.

  • I also had a lot of fun with Half-Minute Hero, Lumines, Everybody's Golf Portable 2/Hot Shots Golf Open Tee 2, and the racing games DdCno1 mentioned.

  • And that's not even getting into the excellent options for emulated games, both retail and homebrew.

  • RetroAcheivements PSP games sorted by number of players is a good way to see the most popular games.

Are you kidding ??? What the **** are you talking about-- ah, forget it. I'm lucky to keep my elo higher than my @FloatingIsFun@fedia.io post count.

I dunno, Nc6, then Qa5+, then Nb4? They'll probably take our knight but it stops their attack.

Then I guess we push king and try to check their king with our king.

Getting the mainstream ones out of the way first: 3s, Garou MotW, ST/2X, Tekken 3 (PS1), UMK3, MvC2, CvS2, SC2, KOF '98, Vampire Savior

Got it? Good. But have you played:
Jackie Chan in Fists of Fire: Strange Mortal Kombat-looking game with three Jackie Chans, but surprisingly accessible
Fighter's History Dynamite/Karnov's Revenge: Karnovember is coming! A 1994 fighting game that held up very well
King of Fighters '95: A prime example of SNK's old school style
Fighter's Destiny and Toy Fighter: 3D fighters where certain knockdowns earn you points, and first to 5 or 7 points wins
Street Fighter EX2 Plus: Arika's quirky take on Street Fighter with plenty of unique characters and mechanics
Slap Happy Rhythm Busters: Fast polygonal 2D fighter with simple controls and supers that make a rhythm action game happen
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Tournament Fighters SNES: The good Turtles fighting game. Fun mechanics to learn and break.

Edit: Added videos for the games that didn't have links to a wiki

Thank you for giving the Fediverse some of that Imaginary Network action I crave from Reddit. I tried asking them to move to Kbin and they aren't interested. You and @Martineski have been doing a fine job making quality posts and always citing your sources. I hope Martineski's Imaginary communities come back soon. I want to contribute more to ImaginarySliceOfLife here!

I'd offer my own @FloatingIsFun to join the Imaginary mix, but it wouldn't work because we accept floaty things that aren't fictional and aren't static images. Besides, with that Lemmy/Kbin bug making all my posts appear to come from two hours in the future, I feel like I've already gotten more exposure than I actually deserve.
