It's quite cool that on Mastodon you can use a GIF as your profile header. :screwattack:As GIFs don't provide any compression capabilities and the maximum file size of the header file is 2 MB, you can only go for GIFs consisting of a few frames on full resolution of 1500 x 500 px. :polarbear: Nevertheless it offers a motivating option for individualization and expressing your profiles intention. 👍#feditips #fediverse #Mastodon #gaming #retrogaming #games #videogames #shareyourgames

Uh, I can now add a GIF of up to 8 MB as my profile header (2 MB before). 💰It was about time to change my profile header anyways, the current one I used for nearly a year yet. 🔄

Mega Man II is the second game in the handheld series. Like its predecessor the game marries features of two consecutive NES titles, in this case Mega Man 2 and 3.This time Capcom outsourced the development to Thinking Rabbit, inexperienced in developing such games. Due to its bland level design and poorly optimized soundtrack it's considered the weakest of the five handheld titles. As a result the sequels returned in the hands of Minakuchi Engineering.🧵2/2#RetroTrivia #retrogaming #gaming

Therefore, this game is very similar to The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords, as in that game Link has three clones that have appeared because of a sword. Also, four Kirbys have to work together to overcome obstacles, as with Links. 🧑🧑🧒🧒The game uses much of the same sprites, enemies, abilities, and mechanics as its predecessor, Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land. 💭🧵2/2#RetroTrivia #retrogaming #gaming #games #videogames #GBA
