>>720664771What does any of that have to do with playing the game? Just emulate it.

2 things. 1. Why would you play the second Parasite Eve game when the first is way better?( we don't talk about the 3rd birthday)2. What is that memory card that was plugged in? I just recently found my old ps2 and was thinking about getting a new memory card and controller for it.

>>720664771Reddit at its finest.When this shit hole was hacked I visited the reddit boards for /vr/ and those cunts only showed their collections, if somebody tried to start a discussion for a game it either had a handful of answers discussing the game or a bunch of fags saying they would love to play the game if they could find it.It made me so mad, fags where jerking off to fucking plastic instead of discussing the damn games.
>>720665401take care of your shit nigger
>>720664912The best part about the games isn't playing them - it's letting people online know that you did, and exactly what your setup was while doing it.
>>720664771i wish i didn't have unironic negro parents that throw out and sell everything old
>>720666949I used to keep my saturn discs in one of those carry cases and one day my parents tossed all the original cases out. Panzer Saga, many big names. Feels bad.
>>720665661Thanks for the information. Just pre ordered mine. >>720665713This look interesting. I'll have to look up more about PSBBN before I decide to go ahead with it.
>>720664917>Physical Software: 3%Latest PS report. The "optional" disc drive means nobody's buying physical games which is exactly want anti-consumer Sony wanted. Maximum draconian greed

>>720664771>broI fucking hate zoomerspeak
>>720664771>>physical games dyingI don't think this is true. I think they're finding out that people are unwilling to buy it if the physical shit is only a cd key bullshit.
>>720667953>zoomerspeak>"bro" has been in the common English vernacular since at least the early 2000sYou're retarded, bro.
>>720664771>that heavily modded console and memory card

not proofreading your post before sending it moment
>>720668364you can never own software because it doesn't exist
>>720664771You can simply buy an old console and hack it for cheap. Most retroniggers right now get all mad like tendies when you mention "yeah i love retrogaming, but i just buy physical copies of game i like"Like yeah, why would i spend 200$ on skies of arcadia that doesn't even help the devs/editors? Truth is you wouldn't be able to enjoy physical games anyway nowadays because there is a billion of patch meaning you will never have a "full version/archival" on disk

>>720665432>1. Why would you play the second Parasite Eve game when the first is way better?Because it's fun. I know that concept is foreign to /v/ but PE2 is good. Even has a better combat system than PE1.
>>720669071Neither PE is good lmao
>>720667953Cool story, bro.
>>720664771oldhead herefirst thing I did with my physical games was dump them and crack them so that I never had to use them again :)
>>720669071>Even has a better combat system than PE1No way in hell shitty RE is better than the at least slightly novel RPG combat from PE1. Not to say PE1 was anywhere near perfect, but it's better than PE2.
>>720664771I have a 360, OG Playstation and a Snes and I still prefer emulating fot he majority of cases.The only console I wish I still had was my fat Ps2.
>>720664771I have a physical copy of North American MegaMan x2 (with instruction book) all original...

>>720666849This. These kind of people's hobby is collecting games, not actually playing them. Which is fine, do what you enjoy, but don't pretend like it's the same thing.
>>720664771>sticking the console on top the displayFucking stop doing this.
>>720670596Could be worse, there are people whose hobby is the fandom surrounding video games. There are people who get more excited about leaks and Nintendo Directs than games.
>>720664771Only bad thing desu is the disc spinning sound
>>720666849They arent even playing them, as evident by the fact that every screenshot is the title screen.

>>720670961Same, man. I always take care of my shit so well. Most people don't give a shit. That's one reason why they're happier and I'm depressed, because I care too much in a world with entropy.
>>720671443Here you go.
>>720667834You're forgetting that we have Insomniac's leak to show us that up to 70% of games Sony releases are sometimes sold physically vs. digitally. Sony's numbers also include DLC, microtransactions, and digital games in their "Digital purchases" tally instead of just the games.Physical is falling off, but it's not as bad as the companies are trying to convince us they are since their own internal leaks show otherwise.
>>720667834uh yeah because if you count all DLCs, all the indie games and AI slop on the ps store as digital sales then yeah we can draw whatever figure we want.For first party sony IPs it's mostly 50/50 which is very nice if you ask me, as per the latest reports the digital/physical ps5 split is also 50/50so are you going to keep making random shit up to get mad about or.... ?
>>720671643>>72067169030% in only 5 years, imagine another 2 years, and PS6. After that Sony won't even sell a disc drive lol
my ps1 controller didn't have sticks
I've gotten old now, and what you retards have lost is the ability to just go diving into your box of old stuff and pull something out you remember loving and getting into it. You won't be able to do that with some game you loved you bought that's PSN only on the PS4 in 2055, but I can easily do it on a game I bought in 1995
>>720671443How often do you dust shelves like that? I keep my place clean but I always ignore that shit until I notice how it looks like an attic
>>720666849Most retro collectors collect games that they have already played. Shocking, I know.
>>720671795i used to think the same thing regarding books.. then I got a soulless ereader where i could pirate my entire library in like three clicks and I got over myself
>>720671443-1 for not branching out past nofriendo + slony-1 for cord not as clean / hidden -1 for keeping boxesover all7/10better than expected, nice collection, happy gaming anon.
>>720671768ps6 is confirmed to have a disc drivemany physical-oriented stores with limited releases still exist and thrivewe already had multiple examples of games with multiple discs in the case (ironic because having one disc only was part of the blu ray marketing), games are simply not big enough even right now to fill a whole ass blu ray, unless it's shit like gta or call of duty or ubisloppa gamesnintendo still has physical games, playstation still has physical games, even fucking xbox still has themkeep making shit up retard
>>720672000>even fucking xbox still has themBegrudgingly in their case. Series games are a coin flip if they're on the disk or if the disk comes with the Xbone version and you need to download the Series game instead meaning the Series version only exists on Microsoft's servers. I fully believe if Microsoft makes one more console it'll be digital only. I can't imagine them keeping it up anymore. As it is the Kingdom Hearts games were digital only and Yakuza had to be released as an LRG release.
>>720664771Just got Kuon and I'm going to a guy's house tomorrow to buy a PS2 tomorrow because mine shat the bad.Feels good /v/ros.
>>720671443>can still see the hives nest of cable despite 90% of it is coveredgrim
>>720671923meh, books are different imo. so heavy and way too pricey. last time i moved i got rid of so many books, and its not worth buying new ones. moving my games was so easy, plus games i can at least have a really good idea of if i will like it before i buy, books not so much. much better to have an ereader then just delete it if im not feeling it.
>>720671795I literally have my ps1 classics, psp games, shit I bought and got for free on wii ware, fucking the roster of genesis games off steam in 2011 and game gear games from my steam copy of Sonic Adventure DX on my PC and can browse through them and play them whenever I want.It's genuinely just a you problem.
>>720664771I ripped all of my 60 ish ps3 games just for the convenience of not hooking up my ps3, not to mention there's some games that can fry it, like disgaea d2 and the witch and the hundred knight.Also>PAL version lmao what a faggot
>>720666949>>720667120That hurts.
>>720672000>000that picture implies that everything that becomes obsolete is abandoned.it is fear propaganda.
>>720668538>>Like yeah, why would i spend 200$ on skies of arcadia that doesn't even help the devs/editors?Because you want it. It's that simple. If you don't want it then don't buy it.
>>720668559You didn't really play the game.
>>720664771consumerism is the death of modern society
Most poorfags are incapable of understanding the concept of owning the games and still playing the emulated version.
>>720671889i have not really had to dust it more than 2 times over the last year, but i keep my apartment pretty clean>>720671970thanks.yeah i had plans on how i coiuld hide the cords when i designed the shelf, however i simplified that when i actually built it, i could/should cable manage it again but gonna be pulling stuff out of there later theis week so cant be bothered
>>720664771I know this is going to blow the youngin's minds, but before the internet (You) would just look at things for entertainment. You would look at the game case you would look at the manual you'd look at the magazine. Looking back it seems pretty caveman but it had a certain charm
>>720671443I literally have no "physical" games except for maybe a couple of CDs at my old house and two consoles I barely touch. It looks cool but it's just so much easier to emulate: you can upscale games, make loading times insignificant, use safestates as you please, make screenshots, use fast-forward and other hacks, you can even play some of these games online. Emulation is literally a biggest gaming achievement of human spirit, all you objectively need outside of it is a DS/3DS.But yeah cool collection.
>>720671443Where are the dreamcast and genesis?
>>720664771Is parasite eve fun? I liked RE hd alot so I want to try more games like itI heard dino crisis is good too..
>>720673715PE1 isn't an RE-like, it's an RPG. 2 is, but I haven't gotten around to playing it. Dino Crisis is alright, just like a blander RE. Dino Crisis 2 kicks ass, but it's more of an action game.
>>720671508I am too scared to press hotkeys on my steam deck. I am like 40 hours and if I press the wrong hot key it will send me back to the first 10 hours since that was my last quicksave. I am too scared to press the hotkey for 4x speed so the battles are super slow and annoying.
>>720673715PE1 is better. Is it's own unique RPG. PE2 is just RE with uglier graphics because they dumped the anime look. Dino Crisis 1 is watered down RE with Dinos but still decent. DC2 is an arcade action shooter and overall much better. It even has a silly versus multiplayer where you can pick between Dinos and I think there was even a tank? Not sure on that one.
>>720673565Emulation certainly has its place, mods and romhacks are cool, and its convinient and cheap. I use them myself. but i also think there is something to be said for enjoying some games on the hardware they were intended for. emu is never perfect on small stuff like bugs, latency, game assets loking strange on modern monitors and so on >>720673647never grew up with sega stuff other than sonic adventure on the gamecube so dont have much of a connection to it. gonna visit a buddy who picked up both of those recently though and i lied what i played so might expand into sega stuff in the future
>>720673715> is P.E. fun- yes, watch a few youtube vids.> is Dino Crisis ... - (NIGGA WHUTT!!!) it is an absolute must play / experience
>>720664771I like playing on old hardware but they literally didn't make an argument in that video.
>>720673860>>720674246>>720674329thanksI AM EMULATING PS1 KINO TONIGHT
>>720672000>ps6 is confirmed to have a disc driveNope. "Optional." Even the most hardcore retarded sony fanboys like zuby understands Playstation is digital only now and it's over.
>>720674486If it's optional, it literally has it, you absolute fucking retarded mongoloid.
>>720664771>this is what you are missing>posts some gay supermodded ps1 and controller that's functionally probably farther away from the original experience than emulating>with a tiny shitty CRT and the most mongoloid setup where a wire dangles down over the screen
>>720674603Anon, it lost a majority in only 5 years and PS5 still has 2-3 more years of life. Stop being delusional.
>>720674603>>720674486PS6 digital only $500, PS6 disc drive $600calling it I still win even if the overall price is higher
>>720673565He said to post your collection, not to post a fucking rant, faggot.Literally no one cares that you emulate, I emulate too, I just don't go around telling everyone that is talking about physical games that I emulate.
Hey uh, OP, quick question but uhm, how do you get the data from the computer onto the disk?
>>720675534commercial discs are stamped directly with the data.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9gRg7X_c4J0
>>720674967It's way more expensive in the rest of the world, they're paying the US tax because Sony is greedy and they're afraid of losing the US market to Nintendo. It had 3 price increases in Japan.
>>720669936I still have my wii but prefer emulation since even back in the day the console looked like ass on HD TVs. Dolphin supports wii remotes and the gamecube adapter, so it's a no brainer.
>>720670961A mix of education + sense of frugality + self conscious behaviour.This friend lacked one of these, probably...
>>720671324>Entire family tells mom she has to keep disks in their original storage, not to leave them out, not to touch the shiny side, and not to put them disk side down.>Repeatedly see her put disks disk side down onto tables.>When I'm in her car she literally has her CDs data side down on the middle tray.>Has bought or been gifted the entire DVD collection of Keeping Up Appearances like three times now because of scratched disks.
>>720671443My collection was pretty big but I threw 80% in the trash or sold on ebay. These are the only things I kept because I have sentimental value to them.
>>720664771boy that had an ending that really didn't pay off huhyeah really didn'the should have emulated smol screen
Why do you need physical?Just play the game/watch the movie and delete it afterwards Music is fine to keep physical but it's inconvenient as fuck
>>720676746If it's digital you don't even need to delete it. Digital storage is cheap and it also doesn't make your room look like a plastic jungle.
>>720670961Same. It's why I don't sell my things anymore and think oh I can rebuy them later, because most retards don't take care of their shit it'll be in poor condition.
>>720664771Bruh I just ordered a PS3 game.
>>720676906Why store it though?It would be years before a replay/rewatch
>>720664771TVs were much bigger when PE2 came out. Just sayin.
>>720664771>Ahhhh... playing games on my professional $3000 CRT meant for studio work, just like my childhood!
The controller and the CRT are the only parts of this that actually matter. The controller part can be taken care of with a cheap adapter and the display part can be taken care of with modern shaders.
>>720677001you wouldn't get it
>>720675820Yes but the data still comes from a computer, unless you're suggesting that they used to make PS1 and PS2 games off of pure machine code.
>>720677001In case you want to share it with friends or family.
Anyone want to buy my game collection? Medical problems came up and I'm scraping money together
>>720676567One day we will have another Tokyo mirage.
>>720672000Physical games are an archaic format. Modern gaming allows for constant updates, patches, and expansions for games, while dedicated game cards/discs for a single game are unable to write said data to it. Discs are generally too slow to play the data on it and require installing said data onto the console's memory first plus download any missing data not on the disc and updates.The only thing that physical has over digital is reselling on the aftermarket, which is something that not everyone cares about.
>>720677342give it to gamestop for like $10 :)

>>720677470I've been selling on eBay for better money with some success but I have a bunch to move with not a crazy amount of time. Was just doing a half-assed attempt to shill my stuff.
>>720671795My ps4 ia jailbroken, however.
>>720677715I'm beginning to think you didn't realize I was asking a rhetorical question originally.The hardware is worthless if the data written to it wasn't digital. Acting like hardware preservation is going to be the sole savior of old games is ridiculous since all you need to do is upload the data onto your hard drive and you can make as many copies as you want.
>>720677754With limited time you either drop the price fast or just give up. Personally I would just destroy it since I don't think people in this country(going to assume you're in the US) deserve anything good.I did exactly that when moving out since I was surrounded by genuine retards and only donated a few quality stuff to people that were consistently nice to me and even vouched for me when I was down mentally.
>>720664771>when bro says just get a car>this is what you’re missing>clips from commuting on a bus
>>720664771The collectorfag and the emulationtranny fear the jailbroken console chad.
I'm tired of nostalgia.
>>720678450I really need to get around to homebrewing and dumping all the games off my 3DS
>>720678064for each year the data sits on your hard drive, it will lose roughly 12kbps, assuming you have SATA - it's about 15kbps on IDE, but only 7kbps on SCSI, due to rotational velocidensity
>>720664771S O U L
>>720666849>it's letting people online know that you did...but emulators have Achievement support for exactly that
>>720676171I get you, for some systems the emulation is so good that choosing the original hardware really is more a matter of taste.I hope 360 emulation reaches that level someday.
I heard 3DS game cartridges no longer work, is it true /v/?
>>720678719You accidentally scratch a disk and it happens to be the last copy because it was never reproduced or uploaded anywhere, that information is gone forever with no hope of recoverability.
>>720664771>pe2not even emulate it. that game sucks.
>>720671795That's not a digital v physical issue, That's an issue solely manufactured by console makers, it's part of why I lost interest in them. Picrel, haven't played this digital only game in over 10 years but I bet it will boot up with no issue if I wanted to play it again.
>>720664771>Everyone fell for the digital jew meme90% of my games are backed up on two HDDs, and can't be taken away, and can be booted up in 10 seconds.I will own EVERYTHING, and i WILL be happy

>>720679370isn't this one of the products that solve the problem by just removing layers of the disc until it evens out?
>>720664771what is actually fucking wrong with millennials, why are they the only generation of perpetual manchildren?
>>720664771Was that supposed to impress me? Sorry even if I would play it that would be emulation on my gaming PC+240hz oled.
>>720664771Unironically that encouraged me to just emulate it. Can probably run that game in 4k with higher framerates on any controller.
>>720679809>why are they the only generation of perpetual manchildren?you mean like star wars nerdsor star trek nerds
>>720678239I feel you, but I'm not THAT pinched on time. I got about till the end of the year.I'm just gonna get as much as I can selling individually, the just bulk sell to a game store later. allucas on ebay. I'll be adding more over the week.
>>720666434>It made me so mad, fags where jerking off to fucking plastic instead of discussing the damn games.I think you pinpointed exactly why I hate physicucks. More interested in plastic than games.
>>720667862and if that doesn't work, wrap it in a plastic bag and put it the freezer for a day or two
>>720667953I've been saying bro since the 50s
>>720664771I fucking hate my physical games collection, it's a gigantic waste of space that I desperately want to be rid of, but my only option is to list a hundred things on ebay and deal with faggots going "Uhh actually, your mint SH3 with soundtrack is something I'd only pay $50 for".I would gladly part ways with my complete SH PS2 black label collection, my complete Resident Evil franchise collection, my copies of every DS/3DS Dragon Quest game, my PS2/3/P 龍が如く collection, and so much other shit if a guy just walked up to me and gave me a clean $5000 for all of it. But that won't happen, so it's just gonna sit in a big bin in my closet until I die.
>>720679887The soul of it was supposed to impress you. There is no soul in double clicking.
>>720679809>what is actually fucking wrong with millennials, why are they the only generation of perpetual manchildren?When old people act petulant we don't call it childish and zoomers are too young so millenials are the only ones with no excuse. All people act like children
>34>Ended up selling most of my physical collection>Bought stuff for some other hobbies with the money, photography and cars>Still just emulate stuff if I wanna play old stuff, which is rareI don't know if I'm actually missing out on much at this point
>>720680173Just do it one by one
>>720679735This, if I like it I get a physical copy
>>720680173>i desperately want to get rid of it, but not for the price people actually want to pay for iti don't think you know what desperate means.
>>720680397Desperate to be rid of it, but not to the degree where I'd put it in the fucking bin.I would rather not get ripped off because I do know what I have. I have taken care of all of my games, every element of them is as they were on release, and whenever I do work up the energy to sell something, I am always complimented on how well taken care of the game is.If I'm selling shit I properly took care, I want the right amount of money for it.
>>720680173>I fucking hate my physical games collection, it's a gigantic waste of space that I desperately want to be rid of........>so it's just gonna sit in a big bin in my closet until I die.........sounds like your only mad at the lack of space, or you still have attachments to it all, or you cannot let go and sell it all for "fuck off" prices.
>>720680173Same. Mine have been on my closet for years collecting dust. I rarely replay games years later. After I die the next owner of this house will have to deal with this mess. I've got everything starting with the NES.
>>720680525so, not desperate at all.you might think you know what you got, but at the end of the day nothing is worth one penny more than what someone else is willing to pay you.
>>720664771I have 4 boxes of physical games I collected in my youth that do nothing but take up space. Every time I see them I have the urge to just take them down to goodwill to get rid of them. I dont get the hoarder mentality of wanting mountains of crap taking up space.
>>720680630>nothing is worth one penny more than what someone else is willing to pay you.Oh, someone will pay the price I want. Made a clean $250 from a dupe of Shattered Memories PS2 I had a while back, but you want to know what I got during that?Fifty fucking offers lowballing me.
>>720680723>i ripped off this sucker with a dupe>but i don't want anyone ripping me off, i know what i got

>>720681380I grew up through the GBA and Xbox. Now I can mod my games, send it to the cloud, or actually own it by having it on my ssd and without DRM. I can even change to a completely different PC with different specs or even OS and still play the same shit. If this is dystopic then lmao.>>720681471It's okay if you weren't actually there when it was fresh then you're already forcing it anyways.
>>720667120>throwing out Saturn casesFelt that one.
>>720680182Same. I have my childhood FFVII-8, Vagrant Story, PE 1 and 2, Tactics + OoT, but it's not like I haven't emulated those a ton. I probably haven't touched any of those physicals in decades.
>>720680173>PS2/3/P 龍が如く collectionOkay, so sell it. Yakuza games don't sell for much at all outside of Dead Souls and the Australian Steelbooks of 4 and Dead Souls when it comes to the western market nowadays. PS2 1 and 2 got reprints by a Canadian store years ago which thankfully dropped the price heavily, especially on 2, and you can still buy them brand new sealed for $40ish. 3 and 4 were also in those reprints. 0 through 6 just got reprints on LRG for PS4 and they're the only ones holding any value at all now whereas the retail stuff is normally priced. Unless you have the Xbox LRG copies or 0 DC/Switch K1 you're not getting much return outside of like $20 per copy at best.On the Japanese side you can get entire lots of games for $20 from Yahoo Auctions, and you can go on eBay right now and basically get the entire series on PS3 for $60. The most expensive I believe I saw was 1&2 HD Wii U going for like $25.
>>720676567Consolidationpilled. Nice 3DSes.
>Last sony report 80% of games sold are digitalYall lucky Sonys going to let you buy a $150 detachable drive.
>>720682774They report DLC and microtransaction as digital sales on top of games, it's not just games. We don't get actual "Just games" numbers outside of leaks, and the Insomniac leaks specifically show you how it's not that drastic at all behind the scenes.
The war on ownership has progressed to the point that zoomers now do this shit for free on 4chan they have been subverted so hardSay what you want but corpo jews sure do know how to mind control NPCs
>>720664771>Clear shell>PVM>Doesn't actually show any gameplay to make an argument for physical media over emulationOH MY NOSTALGIA! To be fair, that clear shell PS1 does look pretty nice.
>>720682774if i must buy digital, i'm only doing it on DRM-free platforms like GoG.sony's already long dead to me.
>>720664771Anti emulation fags will do LITERALLY ANYTHING except playing the fucking game.
I grew up with all this shit and I'd rather emulate nowadays
>>720683107Dude should have his nails ripped off anyway by trying to flex with the PAL versions.
>>720671443>all these seething replys and no one posting their collectiondamn /v/ really is the poorfag board, ive seen hundreds of these types of posts on /lit/, /mu/, /a/ but never on /v/
>>720671795This is a nonissue for me until Steam diesAnd even with my remaining physical collection (altho it's more like 1998-ish and later) it's been more convenient to just torrent copies of them.
>>720680173>oh boohoo i got all these games that i really really really really want to get rid of but selling them ooh thats too much work ooh i cant handle social interactions
>>720664771>completely unrelated to the gameplayYeah I'm missing a lot TROONFucking subhuman consumer retard. Physical cucks are pathetic
>>720683328Good, since it's at least nice to look at and they probably have better taste when it comes to actually collecting shit. Yes even the weebs that buy coomer figurines are better than people like you that think your plastic jungle shit actually looks remotely good.
>>720683510>I'm a neet that only gets 10$ allowance weekly from my parents social security
>>720683328it's so fucking weird, the sheer hate and seething in here because people own some video games
>>720683605>projectionYou would seethe if you saw my sol wallet
>>720683668thats awesome buddy keep going with the imaginary line going up
>>720683627You guys are seething because you were too stupid to download a rom and people here aren't infants on youtube who need their favorite Content Creator to have the walmart display behind them to make sure they know they REALLY play games.
>>720683957see you are so mad for no reasonsad existence
>>720671443I literally sold all of my physical games and bought a mister + the games that were native on steamphysical collecting is for poseur and showoff faggots who don't actually play their gamesthe greatest way to play Parasite Eve 2 is via FPGA on a modern television, anyone who tries to tell you otherwise has no clue what the fuck they are talking about and like the tik tok faggot webm that was in the OP spent 95% of the time showing you OOOHHH LOOK AT THE HARDWARE WOOOOW LOOK AT THE DISC these retards dont even PLAY these games they are literally accessories for themfucking kill all zoomer faggots who latched onto survival horror games and fuck all of the remakes of these games
>>720683082Physical copies have nothing to do with game ownership you retard. If I buy a DRM-free digital game off GOG, I own that game and can do whatever I want with the data. Digital copies can also be backed up/archived by the owner instead of being left to rot on a cartridge or flash memory card.
>>720683957is it impossible to both play roms and physical games?
>mister shillingThat explains why this thread is so shit I'm out
>>720672208Mario..
>>720680063and rub banana on it
>>720684152Of course not, but unless>Physical gamesIs shit you already own, you're a retard.
>>720684112It's better to jailbreak a console that is backwards compatible or to just emulate than to amass a large collection. There's really no point unless you like to admire your collection, which is retarded. With a jailbroken console and a sufficiently sized hard drive, I can play all the games!
>>720664771My ps1 controllers still work perfectly but my xbox one controller I only use for PC gaming got stick drift after 20 hours lol
>>720668179>>720668546>>720669223>>720680151You clearly don't go on tiktok, so you don't know. Bro is used as universal pronoun and name placeholder now and it's fucking annoying when every meme has it.
>some anon shills some emulation shit>the retard anti-emulation faggot leavesgood riddance to trash. maybe go to like reddit if you want people to validate your shitty plastic jungle ya tasteless bum.
>>720684289why is it so wrong to buy a physical ps1 game?
>>720664771Just drop a couple hundred bucks on one game, bro.
>>720683328so go there?
im gonna assume this is the indian zoomer poorfag thread because holy shit whats even going on here
>>720668179Based Leon poster
>>720684205>200 post thread, almost halfway to bump limit. >1 mention of mister over 4 hoursYou're a goddamn living meme. Stay gone.
>>720670897this really pisses me off as someone who actively plays everything I ownand when you see someone who "collects" playing a game they're only playing the beginning parts and play like dogshitI recently beat my re2 copy (both sides) hooking up my ps1 and had a great fucking time
>mfw he doesn't collect old nintendo and sony games he will never play again and instead chooses to live in the present rather than the pastWHY ARE YOU POOR!?!??!
>>720684646collecting physical vidya is the jeet of collections>looks like shit and all look the same>isn't even that impressive price-wise compared to collections from other media
>>720664771Do they even play the game?
Wait a minute. Aren't modern "physical" games just a code for a digital download? Do they still count that as a "physical" sale?
>>720671443This is the first time I've seen PS5 and it's actually that big? Why not buy a PC at that point
>>720685517yes because the cover let's people know that you've tried the gameand if you take pictures of it and post online you get upvotes
>>720664771I don't pay for video games because I am not a retard.
>>720665803Shut up fag
>>720685517Most PS5 games still have some or full data on a disc, but the data lacks any patches/updates and needs to be installed onto console memory first. After that the disc is literally just an access key for the game.
>>720678575Same, I have nostalgia fatigue.People are latching on to 90's/2000's nostalgia way too hard. It's not comfy anymore, it's insufferable. I always buy physicals of games I liked and play digitally, I find it quite ridiculous to make it all your personality.
>>720664771physical games are nice but just aren't the same anymore these days. when you got a physical games you got the whole game, no need for patches, updates, or dlc to play the whole game. also not to say there been the habit of re-releasing the game.
>>720664771>I buy physical media
>>720664771>retard in video uses a cheating memory cardso close to perfection yet so far
>>720664771I like Duckstation though, it can fix the affine texture warping, increase the resolution and save state whenever I want.
>>720687151>liverspotted geriatric millennial with chrome hearts on lmao materialists and collectors are so fucking gay it's unreal.
>>720664771Fuck you if you think everyone can just go out and buy CRTs these days after retarded westerners started listing them as "retro gaming TVs"
>>720679975>>720679975 you got pictures of all your really good shit? I’m willing to buy bulk but I’m in the greater Philly area
>>720664771>>720665401>>720671443>>720664771>Leftoid Hispurd Eceleb>Chink brainrottok style YT SHORT>NOT TRYING TO DICTATE YOUR PRICES GUYS>BUUUUUUUUUUUUUT if you don't play original you ain't kewl is meeeeeeeThese fuckers are destroyers for everything they touch, because they are just self serving parasites who only think about themselves.
>>720664771i don't miss my ps1 dying just from playing a measly 4 hours straight on a 30c+ heat, also bet he didn't even get to dryfield before going on to consoom more shit to post on tiktok
>>720665401I once bought a cheap copy of Silent Hill 3 that was so fucked up it literally had dents.Still worked though, it only froze on the end credits.
>>720664771>nooo you can't switch to something cheaper and more convenient you HAVE to hoard plastic!!!
>>720685536>Why not buy a PC at that pointIgnorance, unironic corporate worship, or just plain laziness. Or some combination of all three of the above. There is absolutely no other reason a person would own a console in 2025
>>720679975Your collection looks very similar to mine. Mine is PS1, Gamecube, and a little PS2. No DS stuff though.
