I did this COUNTLESS times on Dragon Slayer until I got into the habit of saving the game every 2 minutes.

This feature actually makes Tower Of Druaga (a Huey Game) more playable, IMHO.

FTW

Speaking of Dragon Slayer and regret...  Try selling a Duo R on ebay only to realize a day later you left your ONLY copy of Dragon Slayer for the TG in the Duo when you shipped it.  The dude never even left feedback...

there is not a loud enough homer simpson DOH sound, to describe this.

>_<

are we talkin US or JP release?  Cause the JP one is pretty cheap to replace

US Release...

I've never had an accidental reset.  I have, however, intentionally reset a game out of frustration (whilst bellowing "f*ck this shit!").

I've done that many times!!


I remember when I got my TG16 in like 1990.  The only game I had was Keith Courage and for a while I thought my TG16 as BROKEN!   Because every once in a while the system would seem to reset itself and I'd have to start over.  Was a long time before I realized it was a feature.   Guess I should have read the manual.

I do this all the time. You'd think after 20 years the habit would've been broken, but....

when playing some games i end up just taping a bottle cap over the select button, so if i want to push it i gotta flip that up.

no more accidents.

Last time I oopsreset was playing Shadow of the Beast.  I just got the jetpack and went to pause it and was like NOOOOOO

It was my ghetto Duo-R that fetched a handsome sum on yaBe.  Now I'm rocking a(n) RX.  I still dry heave when I open my Dragon Slayer case to find it empty...

This is a coincidence as it reminds me of the time I bought a Duo-R off Ebay and there was a Dragon Slayer disc inside.

Some of the Valis games use start and select for sliding and magic. I've definitely hit reset accidentally a couple times. But if I'm playing any game that uses start/select I'm always a little nervous of hitting reset.
