Yo, Mega Drivers! How's tricks? So we have this new website up over @ www.superfighter.com for you to take a gander at. Yeah, it was a long time coming. Sorry about that. Life tends to get in the way of these things, y'know? But anyway, there it is. In reflection, I actually couldn't remember how many different revisions of the website there have been, over the years. I did remember working up the second revision during an exhibition at the Classic Geek Expo (err, Classic GAMING Expo) back in '05 -- from the relative comfort of my hotel room -- using an HP Omnibook 900 (Ad Lib compatible!). But anyway, I looked into it and the answer was 4. 4 revisions, ah ah ah. So this would technically be version 5.0 of the whole Super Fighter Team online experience. And as usual it's been beautifully hand-coded by yours truly using the "MS-DOS Editor" ... because that's how I roll. Aaaaaaand, you'll either like it or you won't. Either way if you've got a couple seconds you can shoot me an e-mail with your comments. I'll appreciate that. Note however I don't make it by these forums much any more (or most any other forums for that matter), so if you PM me I may not get it for, like, eons. ENJOY!!
So? I for one kinda enjoy getting a break from all the JavaScriptAngularDojoEnterpriseBloatFactoryBean.net.aspx bs once in a while. It gets a thumbs up from me. But more importantly, all the games I'm interested in seem to be in stock right now. Awesome. Time to go dig in the proverbial couch for some change. My mistake. Wake me when there's actual carts to buy.
Thanks! Well, sort of. The goal was to keep the design simple, easy to use, not nearly as verbose as it used to be (since so many people in the world have short attention spans these days), able to load and display properly on most any web browser (all the way back to even piss-poor ones like Skipper/WebMagick for Geoworks), have quick load times even on 56k dial-up (hey, there's people out there who still use it!), etc., etc. Esp. for "universal" browser support (or at least as much as I have the ability and patience to test), you have to keep the code simple. Luckily that's easy for me, because what you see on the current site is about the maximum of my HTML coding abilities. And the design looking & feeling retro is on purpose too because, well, we're a retro publisher. I also find it quaint and kind of cool that someone can load our site and have it display correctly on a modern browser, or on one from the mid-to-late '90s. We try not to leave anyone out. Thanks. Beggar Prince, Cascade and Magic Girl for the Genesis / Mega Drive are all in stock right now, ready for immediate shipping. A few of the others are still on pre-order, yes. I'll make an announcement here once they, too, are available for immediate shipping. Thanks for your interest.
