I would agree for a lot of games but Konami can really make that Genesis synth sing. This song makes me really wish we got a Goemon game on the platform.

So I think we all know that the game has a demo vid showing you how to beat the tutorial but what about the manual? Does the manual teach the moves? I got the game second hand without the manual so I wouldn't know.

You need to do it in order to know how to play the game. The game is difficult enough as it is and you will be using everything on the list.

I'm looking for a Gen 2 mod and even Emerald mod that allows QoL enhancements, but doesn't go full retard adding in pokemon from newer gens, or things that weren't in their respective gens. Would the legacy games be good for this or is there something better?

I will go ahead and say, after some time my cousin who is much more into pokemon than I am said that he was not a fan of some of the new typings and found them sort of nonsensical in this hack. Didn't hate them, but he just didn't like them either. Just something to keep in mind. I personally didn't notice them myself, but I also more or less cut out around gen 4 so my memory on a lot of this stuff is sorta blurry.

also, merry Christmas errybody!

Any other fellow anons from those countries can give me their experiences with retrogaming (growing up, popular games, collecting or emulating in current day, etc..).
All I know is that the PS2 is still incredibly popular there, would like to know if Sega, Atari or the OG Xbox had their fans.

Can confirm, I remember an issue where in SOS (the cheats segment) they copy pasted fake codes from GameFaqs in the exact same format and wording.

the NEOGEO Pocket was really colorful, but there was no way to beat Nintendo. Also it's surprising to me that every Japanese company had their own cute mascot, even Namco had Pac man, but SNK got nothing, terry doesn't count for obvious reasons. How did they think they were gonna compete?

Discuss anything involving Wii homebrew for playing retro games.
Right now I'm using the Retroarch Hexaeco build for games and it's been working very well so far with everything I've tried (Neo Geo was the only core that I tried that had crashes and it was with the big games like KoF2002).

The PS2 held back that entire generation, since most multiplats target it as the lead platform, so they just ported the shitty PS2 assets by batch converting to the nearest compatible format on GCN and Xbox not taking advantage of the capabilities of each one and sometimes they even had to pair the quality to keep the PS2 comparable to the other platforms
>>
>>12267836
Did Fumito Ueda claimed that? Are you a developer? Did you actually program in any of those consoles to back this claim??

Let's say SOTC was a multiplatform game, I'm sure it would've run better on both Xbox and GCN because the PS2 it self barely could run the game, also the game boasts a shit ton of cut bosses and content

By the way, I thought I'd run this up the flagpole, see who salutes; I've discovered a bunch of tie-in novellas/novels for various /vr/ games, and I thought it might be fun to have a sort of book club, maybe start it in January. Basically, I'd start the thread, post a few chapters every day to give everyone time to read/discuss the story so far. I was thinking of having it be a weekly thing, maybe fortnightly if people prefer to space things out.

Either way, I wanted to see what game people wanted to start off with, so I picked out a selection

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZP7vWiaxw7Y
Given how the latest game in the franchise has gotten everyone thirsty af, I thought it'd be fun to look back to where it all began with the novelisation of the first Baldur's Gate as well as the BG2 novels. The reading level is par for any D&D novel i.e. teenagers and above, and there's three of them.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xqf8jID9TsE
Yes, this had tie-in books. Again, there's three of them, but these were for a younger audience, aimed at kids who were getting confident reading, so they should be the easiest to get through

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-i8HYi1QH0
Yeah, I had to include this motherfucker. The reading level is somewhere between the two above options. There are four novellas, each one about the length of a Goosbumps book.

thanks for posting, oldfag here from the other threads, i also have this one but its missing the covers.

i thought this was done by the fleetway sonic the comic artists, doesnt look like it was but shinobi was a sonic the comic strip, dont remember shinobi being in this book tho, i might have to dig mine out the loft and have a look.

Twice isn't a pattern though. Once it was done a 3rd time it became the norm. I'll always be disappointed they weren't more daring with type combos and choices. Flying being a type clearly fucked things up. Levitate was a much needed mechanic to give pokemon this sense of floating or hovering without needing to be tied to a whole type. Slapping water, flying and poison on to to things, since the animal swims or flies or is venomous was just stupid. It's a game with flaming horses and electric rats. Gen 3 did even less regarding bold choices. More type combos were introduced in gen 2 than gen 3. Gen 3 had more pokemon. It's a big pile of missed opportunities.
