Well, there is one slight problem with that - ALL games I'm offering are on THEIR wishlists. So, no, there is no (rational) explanation. And I'm not even trying to find one anymore.

Heard that before... Except, it's the same with 99% of people there. I offered one guy two games (AGAIN, both on their wishlist) worth around $5 for one game worth $4 - declined. Or another where I offered a game worth $3 for a game worth $2. Just by their stats, you can see all those people have a percentage of declined deals over 95%. Those people are not resellers, they're not gamers - they simply don't know what they want.
You are complaining, you need to realize this is really just how it is...its a waiting game for the right suck...I mean usER to come along :LOL:
when I'm talking about trades, there is one mystery right now.
So, on Friday, I've got a PM. The thing is, it was a completely new IG forum member, just registered. He offered me a bunch of good games (although, he said he's not sure which keys are good and which are not) for just one of my games. I sent him a PM with the key he wanted and said that I only used the first key and he can have all his other keys back but... Well, he didn't show up since Friday. Not to mention, his name doesn't sound like something picked by chance - or maybe it is? Maybe there is some kind of invasion of Marios... :unsure:
Well, worst case you keep them all 🤷‍♂️

We'll gladly take a raffle, GA, or gift donation up in here hahaha.

Congratulations to the others winners!!! 🏅🏅🏅

Key successfully received and redeemed!!!👌
THANK YOU VERY MUCH silent_passenger for this game that was on my wishlist!!! ❤️

Another good old ninja game i played on Atari :

Thats not Ninja technically, I owned it for NES and I've seen it as a GA from Gala too so I know its on PC in some form or another. Arcade collection or standalone game I'm not sure, tried like hell to win it, along with Burger Time :LOL:
One game I didn't play.
I played it on arcade rooms, nice one!
What great memories of Arcade's Bad Dudes:

Here it's on Steam for those interested.

My favourite one was Michaelangelo!🍕🐢🥷
My favorite was Raphael for being a rebel! 🤘

Greetings.

What great memories of Arcade's Bad Dudes:
Ok, I just meant regular 'Bad dudes' the game, thats different lol.
My favorite was Raphael for being a rebel! 🤘
I would have said self centered pric, but potato pototo :LOL:

I actually like Don, and not for the brains, for the staffs. i'm nasty with a bo-staff myself--years after I stopped watching that lol.

On Atari it was only "Dragon Ninja", i never saw the "Bad Dudes" title, strange.
I've never seen the Dragon ninja title...so I guess we're both kind of wrong on this one 🤷‍♂️

I just remember playing it, I didn't see any ninja type things like ninja stars or anything, at least that i can recall. It was a basic punch and bash kind of game heh.

This is a professional tool that has passed research in accordance with the forensic requirements of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia, is made of carbon stainless steel 7CR13, has a lot of weight and easily cuts trees, bones and anything. You don't even have to strain yourself for that. One guy I know just touched the blade and half of his finger was cut off, the doctors saved him 😂

I wonder how using the gyro on a joycon to emulate a lightgun/wiimote would fare. :unsure:
If you were ok having a reticle on screen, then it would work OK. The only problem is that while the sensor bar kept our Wiimotes constantly calibrated, the Joycons fall out of sync fairly easily, so you'll have to keep pushing a button constantly to recenter the reticle.

If you want pure light gun action, with no reticle, then I don't think Joycons would work that well. Even Wiimotes didn't feel that great as a pure light gun. When Nintendo put Duck Hunt on the Wii Virtual Console, they added in an on-screen reticle to make it easier (I would argue too easy). If I remember correctly, you did have the option to turn it off, but then it was very hard because you couldn't quite feel where you were aiming.

That sucks...if it would have worked smooth you'd have had my interest. Probably just end up building my own eventually, you can basically use the mouse software aspect to make one just changing the pointer to a target. Just gotta calibrate corners like a gamepad and bang! literally lol.

I'd probably look into much better methods, but in theory it would work.

I've also played Duck Hunt with a mouse and found it too easy. The light gun really is kind of a unique relic that doesn't have a great modern replacement. Any kind of cursor/reticle makes shooting too easy, but removing it makes it hard to know where you're really aiming. The light gun was generally very accurate without needing any on-screen help.

Now regular shooters on the other hand, I LOVED using Wiimotes for those! It was a sweet blend of near-mouse+keyboard precision, plus the familiarity of using a controller (which I wasn't a PC gamer back then, so that was very important). The Metroid Prime games for Wii in particular (while not really pure FPS games) were just fantastic.

Yes, that's what I said, there are a lot of people who literally "want everything", but in reality they don't want anything. Just skip them. Two or three hundred in the wishlist - this is possibly a person who is really looking for a specific game. Two or three thousand - you are wasting your time.
