      But then I remembered one time king mayro told the fictional specs of the FCCD and it was very weak
      So I guess it sounding like this makes sense

    That's why some 8-bit graphics still hold their place, even if you could make it 8-bit look more colorful. Funny idea to have a cd rom add-on for the Famicom. But it's already by pass that part for that kind of technology

    • @ssg-eggunner
      @ssg-eggunner Місяць тому +3

      Tbh "8-bit" graphics were at peak with MS DOS EGA and the SEGA Master System
      Many "8-bit" machines had good enough general palettes, including the Famicom
      My only gripe with the Famicom is that it could only normally support 3 colors per tile
      3 colors is usually enough, but it's kinda boring, and doesn't allow much playing with color multiplexing and betweens
      I'd say 4-6 colors is more of a proper standard

    While still a shame, I do get why developers back in the day didn't really utilize Mode 0 much, as they wanted games to look as detailed as possible.
    However, I am kinda baffled why the homebrew scene hasn't been all over this?
    Especially with how much the retro community loves the 8 bit look but not so much the restrictions that come with it.
    A game like Shovel Knight I imagine could run almost natively in mode 0 on a SNES, with only really widescreen being the only sacrifice necessary
    I really wish model SNES game projects could get some more momentum. Perhaps this project here will help setting that in motion

    It looks incredible and I love the artwork, but I'm at a loss as to how they expect to justify having four layers on a machine based on famicon hardware. It would be hard to justify it being even equal in power to the PC Engine CD, (Turbo Grafix CD) which was still limited to two layers.

    While I like the "lore" of the "Famicom CD", at the end of the day it's still a Super Famicom it's running on. What they acheived on a SNES with the audio and animations is no less impressive, so idk why they didn't just embrace the "Super Famicom CD" mythos, especially considering that was actually in the works.
    CDs were first developed in 1982, and CD-ROMs weren't introduced until 1985. They'd be prohibitively expensive until the 1990s. That's why we didn't get the Sega CD until 1991, and it was $300.
    Although I kinda get it. A "Nintendo PlayStation" style system would probably pack in a Super FX2 or better into the addon or something and we'd have games that looked better than Yoshi's Island or even some Saturn Games, but the devs here wanted that 1989-1991 transitional period from 8 to 16 bit.
    I guess there is an alternate universe where CDs were developed just a few years earlier and the tech would have been cheap during the early 1980s. It's a possible timeline.

      @ssg-eggunner Місяць тому

      And the reason why they went with Famicom CD instead of Super Famicom CD
      Is because unlike Super Famicom CD, it didn't exist and didn't have actual SPECS
      If they did Super Famicom CD instead, they would be entitled to recreating the 93' specs of the hardware, which would be troublesome
      So disguising a normal Super Famicom with CD audio as Famicom CD works
