Earthbound is one of my all time favs, but I haven't played it in quite some time. Would probably start it back up if that's the cool thing to do these days.

Yep, it really is a great piece of electronics.

A psp 1001 could be required for this thread.

Any interest on here in a group deciding a classic game to play for a month or two and discussing in on here?

This sounds awesome.

EDT:

Anyone else picked up Mega Man Legacy Collection?

PS1, PS2, Gamecube, and Wii are also pretty easy to emulate.

Not that I'm aware of, but that's a pretty good choice. People could also just play the games individually. I definitely dig this one

I played EB for about an hour or so today. Remembering little things here and there. Still love it.

This should really open up our options since most won't want to do last gen games anyway.

Yep. PCSX2 (iirc) and Dolphin are super easy to use. Dolphin especially. Currently playing Xenoblade very nicely upscaled.

Awesome. Well it looks like Earthbound is out winner. I personally think that we should make this a 2 month game because of it's length. How do you guys feel about that?

Eta: found everything and playing. Will stop until we officially start.

So I have til Tuesday to get the setup going? Sounds good.

Riddle me this....

Because I cannot remember,
Ever find cheats for earthbound?
Someone mentioned they exist?
There should be a rule that we wont use cheats/hacks.
Regular play through only.
Of course, we wont know if someone does or not.
My friends loved this game.
Some of my friends never heard of this game.
I look forward to this club idea.
This will be really fun, or an epic failure
Every one see what I am doing here
?

you don't have to start then

The way I see it this is our September game. I would like it to be October too since it's a longer game but that's if everyone else wants to also. I'll launch a thread about earthbound on Tuesday and we can just discuss it as we play for the month (or 2).

so are we technically playing the game for SNES called "earthbound"? because it's of VC so I'll just get it there if we are.

Not really a cheat, but look up the rock candy trick. You will level up fast as shite and it can make the end game much easier.

I feel that classifies as a cheat.
