Please note I never bothered to learn how to type using the home row method and my fingers simply "hunt-and-peck".

I think this is pretty much what everyone does.

No, I have been distinctly been made fun of by several community members here who I have met in person!

It's not like I awkwardly look for any of the keys. My fingers know where to go!

Yeah, I think home row is more common with speedy typists. I will only make fun of you if you look at the keyboard and not the monitor while you type, which is extremely common with hunt-and-peckers.

So is playing Rockman no Constance (ps best megaman) anywhere I go.
Only if your idea of fun is putting your dick in a pencil sharpener. Fuck Quick Man.

Edit: Nice. Found a YouTube video of his bullshit stage.

Using edited RTP graphics...

I prefer RTP and RTP edits to a bunch of Tales of Phantasia rips or whatever.

Game design articles.

The different varieties of Maruchan Ramen noodles and the pluses and minuses to each.

Why is RPG Maker stuck in the 20th Century, graphics-wise?

There are very strict skill set limitations for modern games. There's a reason they're becoming more and more expensive with larger teams to make. It's easier for a one-man show to work with 2D low resolution graphics that are modular/tile-based.

I'd like to ask how all of you independent trailblazers afford to eat, and what kind of food you buy, and if you don't mind, how much you spend on food.

This is very important.

When money is tight I make a lot of pasta, because it's inexpensive. I spend around $40 a week on groceries, sometimes more or less depending on what I want. Bags of frozen chicken breasts are relatively cheap, and seasoning/marinating packs are only like 25 cents. If you're that poor I would avoid eating out too much, because while Taco Bell is cheap and easy, it can add up.

Black Sigil for the DS -- it's like FF6 and CT had a baby

I bet you the Base Exchange here will have it. They always have obscure games for some reason, but never enough blockbuster titles in stock.

The Emulation Debate

Since the proliferation of retro compilations and virtual console, I don't really emulate console games on the PC anymore. I did use a PSX emulator on my laptop while deployed last year, because I was craving some 32-bit era RPGs. Also, I use DOSbox for old games that XP doesn't like. I am strongly opposed to piracy, and have only used emulation as a means to play fan-translations, games I own but don't have the hardware accessible to play, or games that are very difficult to acquire. I used to have lots of oldschool ROMs, but my virtual console and numerous Midway, Sega, etc. compilations I have on Wii, 360, and PSP are good enough evidence that I'm willing to pay money if the option is available to me.
