I mean, they’re useful instructions. How often at the time did you need to take a photo of the tv? And you were likely not going to know how the photo looked until you got it developed, so it’s important that you get the photo right the first time, because there may not be a second chance, since you’ll have to run down to the pharmacy, grocery store, or wherever you get your photos developed, and wait for them to come back to see that you messed it up or not, and by then, your parents may have turned the console off.
I did this for The Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels challenge. If you beat the game without warping you could get to world 9, and if you sent in a screenshot they sent you a patch. I’ve still got it lol
Pic of the patch?
Took me a minute to find it, but ask and ye shall receive.
Nice
Good job, truly!
It certainly felt like quite the accomplishment at the time 😂
That’s a piece of history!
Why the quotes in the title? That is more legitimately taking a screenshot than saving the framebuffer is!
Well damn, you’re absolutely right.
I actually followed this guide back in the day! I never got my photo published in the mag though.
