The Exigent Duality
Keen Can Dream, So Can I - 12:20 CST, 2/10/19 (Sniper)
As I wrote in yesterday's review, playing an EGA DOS game on the Switch hardware is positively surreal. I wasn't kidding in the review when I said I've already had more fun playing this than "Super Mario Odyssey".

I especially love how Tom Hall and his programmer friends futzed with the aspect ratio, so that it's a good compromise between viewport size, and not having enormous black bars along the sides of the screen. It makes 4:3 gaming on a 16:9 display palatable!

Can you imagine if this release paves the way for similarly adapted ports of games like "X-COM: UFO Defense", "Ultima Underworld", or even other genres such as "One Must Fall: 2097" or "Aces of the Pacific"? One can dream!
