It's 1991 again. What are we playing?
>>
>>729295569
Nothing, I wait a few years for the actual good games to come out.
>>
I wanted to write UGH!, but it came out in 1992

what did the turbo button do? I remember all the old pcs had it but never noticed a difference and/or couldn't get it to do anything
>>
>>729296069
The button itself didnt affect gameplay. You would then hold down a face button and it would autotap it at a very high speed

Lotus Turbo Challenge II on the Amiga 500

>>
>>729296069
Many really old games and other programs worked at the speed your processor did
The turbo button controlled the processor clock in the opposite manner you'd expect. Turning it off halves the clock speed. If it had no effect the software had been written to update the screen at reasonable intervals
>>
>>729295569
I'm playing "shit my diaper." It's alright.
>>
>>729295569
Doom.
>>
>>729296069
turning it off makes the CPU run slower at original 8086 4.77MHz speeds instead of faster 286/486 speeds

some ancient ass 16-bit PC games were coded to run as fast as possible so they became unplayable on a CPU that's like 20 times faster.

How'd you get a copy a year before it even started development?

I get a SNES with some games and try to hold out until the PSX and Doom. Maybe some older dungeon crawlers

>black keyboard from the mid 2000's
I understand not wanting to buy an actual keyboard from that time since they're expensive now, but you can still find vintage style keyboards made recently that match with that case and monitor.
>>
>>729295569
I didn't have a PC until 1996, so it had to be something on the NES.

Hide and Seek or something, I'm poor as fuck and dad doesn't let us play with his Nintendo after he saw us cartridge tilting.
>>
>>729297108
What’s cartridge tilting?
>>
I'm down by the creek with my cousin and we're practicing for penis inspection day since the phys ed teacher said it would be just after the holidays.
>>
>>729296515
I went back in time with a copy of Doom in my pants.
>>
I'm only one in 1991. So I'm probably drooling and bitching about teething. Hope it gets better tbqh

NGMI dude.

You'll have to play Space Taxi (1984) instead.
>>
>>729297158
On older Nintendo systems like the SNES and N64 you could tilt the cartridge so not all of the pins make contact, it had some really funky affects which could effect your game.
>>
>>729297724
There's a wild assortment of glitches in Ocarina of Time that utilize this trick, it's also known as 'Crooked Cartridge'.
>>
>>729297857
It's probably not the worst thing you can do but it definitely does not look good on screen. All sorts of glitched out graphics and sounds.
>>
Maybe this.
>>
>>729298024
And then decades later, make Blue Prince?

Pretty sure at nine years old I was out climbing trees and running through the woods. If I was playing a video game it was one of the three NES games I had: Bad Dudes, Bayou Billy or Captain Skyhawk.
>>
>>729295569
Diablo 4.

Duke Nukem 1
The first PC game I ever played

>>729295569
Immediately get into game dev (which is kinda viable since dev teams are way smaller) and use my knowledge of future popular games into my own games.
>>
>>729300774
Imagine how many 286s you would have to daisy chain to play it
>>
Wing Commander 2, Gunship2000, GODS, Lemmings, Civilization, Falcon 3.0 and 20 others i forgot.
>>
>>729295569
I'm annoyed that I don't know what game this is
As for what we're playing, I don't feel like figuring out everything that had come out by then, so I'll just say the Bard's Tale trilogy or Ultima IV through VI or Elite II
>>
>>729295569
We put the key locks on our PC's back then to keep NIGGERS out.

Lotus III: The Ultimate Challenge was one of the first games I ever played. It was called just Lotus: The Ultimate Challenge on DOS, though. I still have a thing for green cars because of the intro
>>
>>729295569
1991 was the year I learned to read so I didn't play DOS games until 1992 but then I played the masterpiece Romance of the Three Kingdoms 3: Dragon of Destiny by kou shibusawa from koei

Easy.

This 4chan x verification issue is such a fucking cunt.
>>
>>729295569
That's the year I got an atari 7800. It had a bunch of games installed. I'll mention Pitfall I guess, which was called Tom Boy on that atari.
