>is not just one of the best Zelda games, but one of the best games in general >and everyone forgot it existed Lol
this and links awakening are the only 2d Zelda's worth playing
>>738238930This game got its first playable build on PC as a port BTW.
>>738239050Just call it an emulator dawg. It ain't been ported to la computadora
>>738238930It is kind of weird how this game doesn't get much praise or anything. Even by me. I remember liking it a lot but I don't think I've ever talked about online. I just played it, loved it, and then moved on, never speaking of it again. The art and animation was some of the best I've seen in any videogame and I liked the shrinking mechanic. I really don't remember any of the dungeons though.
>>738238930I wanted to play this so bad but I had a giantess fetish and was worried my friends would find out if I played this. I don't even understand what mental gymnastics kid me was performing.
desu I never liked Minish Cap. It was such a huge step down from the Oracles.
Shrinking yourself to access certain areas must be the dumbest, most unnecessary risk one could possibly take. What if a child picks you up and puts you in a glass jar? Whoops, life over.
>>738239050graphics are glitched in that, like the minimap and the barrelbetter off using visualboy advance dessu.
>>738239094are you retarded, there is no emulation involved
>>738238930I'd like this game more if it didn't use the toon style which is lame and was 3D. And it needed giantess sequences.
>>738239203same. I guess it's just really forgettable. Don't know why.
>>738239506Explain how a GBA cart slots into your computer if it's not emulating a GBA game via a ROM file and specifically designed software
>>738238930No, it's the fourth worst Zelda game, it makes sense that it's been forgotten.Doesn't necessarily deserve it, but it makes sense.
Wind Waker is better than Majora's Mask.
It's kind of stupid thinking about it now, but as a kid I really liked how Minish Cap looked, and I always wanted to play it on my DS Lite, but my only GBA Zelda was ALttP and always felt cheated because I was playing the game with the "crappy" visuals, and I could only see for myself the nice visuals when booting up Four Swords just to look at the title screen/intro (because lmao at having friends)
>>738238930I'll never forget. It's a fantastic game.
>>738238930It's a fun great game but it has two stains>kinstone fusion>the gacha figures
>>738239561do you know what a port is, porting software to work on different hardware is not trying to emulate the original hardware, it's running on the new hardware natively. there is no fucking emulation you absolute retard.
>>738239694that's literally emulation
no zelda game is more than 5/10
>>738239715no it isn't
>>738239694A GBA game was never designed to be played on a computer
>>738239745and? it's a port that makes the gba run natively on a computer.
>>738238930It’s pretty to look at but far from being the best Zelda.
>>738239745This version of it is.
>>738239765yeah, with emulation, you don't insert the cart in the computer
>>738239684I was able to forgive the kinstones but the gacha stuff pissed me off. I contemplated cheating with save states but just decided to finish the game without a proper 100%
>>738239806you are genuinely retarded
>>738239814Just don't do the gacha?
>>738239806Nothing is being emulated, it's the game running on your computer hardware with nothing in between emulating the GBA.
any other good 2D zelda-like games?
>>738239834meant for >>738239684
>>738239506>>738239694>>738239817Do you only have this one insult? And a Gameboy Advance game can't be "native" to a computer. Otherwise it would be a computer game.
>>738239870then nothing works
Will the decomp have a camera zoom like LADX? Minish Cap had such beautiful pixel art.
>>738239873SoleilNeutopia 2AlundraYs 1-2, 4
>>738239926Except it does because this version was built to run natively in Windows.
>>738238930>best Zelda game>outsourced to CapcomWhat did they mean by this?
>>738240009so emulation
>>738240009you're either talking to an actual clinically diagnosable retard or someone fucking with youin either case you aren't going to get anywhere
>>738240009You missed my post here >>738239914Minish Cap is native to the GBA, bit to Windows
>>738238930It sucks. Slow linear bullshit that doesn't let you explore what's in front of you because you didn't connect two rocks halfway across the continent.Capcom did a way better job with Oracles, especially Seasons
The reason nobody talks about them are because all the Capcom Zeldas are fucking mediocre.Funfact though: Minish's producer is everyones favorite conman, Inafune!
>>738239715emulators are virtual machinesyour computer simulates the hardware components of the target console in software, and the unmodified rom of the game runs on those virtual componentsin these ports there is no virtual machine, there is no simulation of hardware components, the game's source is modified and recompiled for PC
>>738239873Final Fantasy Adventure for the Game Boy is pretty Zelda-like.
>>738240389So the computer is working a software to act in place of the hardware of old. Hmm.
>>738240429no it isn'tthat's pretty dumb that you would think thatwow you're fucking stupid geez
>people are seriously replying to the dense retard
>>738240389quite literally emulation
All I'm saying is VGBA still works just fine. As does my original physical one from back in the day
Played it for the first time during the pandemic.Man, i was not expecting it to become my favorite 2d zelda.Also didn't expect to feel the way i did after i finished it.Ezlo became my favorite alongside KOTR and Midna for sure.
>>738240502Decomp can have camera zoom in 4K
>>738240484the computer isn't emulating anything. the software itself was modified to work on computers
>>738240561Oh wow! That's a very unimpressive thing. Camera zoom? Really? That's your selling point?
>>738240619It's my selling point
>>738240301I personally love the overworld design. It's like the whole thing is designed like a big dungeon. Slowly unlocking areas as you solve puzzles and do kinstone quests is so satisfying. Linear isn't inherently a bad thing.
Emulation? Port? Doesn't matter, it's theft in either case
>>738240342Funner fact: it was directed by the same guy who directed BOTW
>>738238930>>738239203It's a "pretty good game". But that's it. It's linear, you play and forget it. It's like any other game like that. There's fine pixel art.It's not Oracle. It's a more linear, more subdued Oracle. It doesn't have the memorable-ness of it. It's not LA either. There's so many neat things or even odd puzzles with godly gimmicks (not meh gimmicks) in the Oracle experience that would certainly strike the experience as a game that you played. And thus would talk about.
>>738240671That looks incredibly unfun, and LA is one of my favourites.
>>738239094>>738239561>>738239715>>738240389you're retarded it was decomped bro </3
>>738240837Here's me not caring about your preferences
>>738240671Can you play as Zelda tho?
>>738240671Doesn't that fuck up the swamp puzzle?
>>738240979Yes.
>>738240993decomp troon on suicide watch
>>738240585The game wasn't made in 2004 to be played on anything but a handheld gaming device. That was never the intention. So someone took the raw data and tricked it to accept the computer as the device? So the computer is acting as a GBA would. So it's playing the GBA ROM file using software.
>>738241081>So the computer is acting as a GBA wouldno it isn't
>>738241081you know you're wrong, but you're trying to argue semantics because you're a pedantic faggot with no friends and a tiny cock that doesn't get hard
>>738241215Explain why it isn't. The software is being played on the hardware.
>>738241256no lolfucking faggot
>>738238930Too linear, too many "trigger this cutscene to make an NPC appear in this one location" moments, too annoying to actually 100%. Everybody "forgets" it exists because it was kind of mid for 2D Zelda games. It's one of the best looking, but mainly due to being one of the last pixel-art Zelda titles put out.
>>738241251I have a big cock
>>738241256they reverse engineered the code and changed it to run on windowsthis isn't any different than a game that's played on multiple platforms like minecraft
>>738241081>The game wasn't made in 2004 to be played on anything but a handheld gaming deviceWrong. It has built in color modes for the GB Player. Most games don't have that.It was literally designed with a TV screen in mind too.
>>738241683yeah so emulation
>>738241760*rapes you*Ahhh that was a good rape. I feel so much better
>>738241816>No argumentYou can bow out anytime lil bro
No zelda game is good. They are all average or worse
>>738238930I think Vaati is a really cool villain. His design feels like the polar opposite of Link.
>>738242173From Maze of Galious to Elden Ring, Zelda has been always outclassed in the hardcore gaming circle
>>738242173Post metacritic scores for Zelda.
>>738241989arguments dont change reality dawg. your misunderstanding is so fundamental it would be impossible to explain it here.
>>738242593>arguments dont change reality dawg>Doesn't post any verifiable sourcesI accept your concession
>>738241256>The software is being played on the hardware.GBA software isn't being played on the hardware though. The PC isn't emulating a GBA because it isn't running a GBA ROM.
>>738243095>The PC isn't emulating a GBAIt literally is. Hardware emulation is done via software in this particular instance.Bit like how PS2 Slims emulate PS1 hardware, instead of including literal PS1 components like the OG model did.
>>738243095you're replying to the world's most obvious troll btw
>>738238930It had nice visuals, that's about it. It's a pretty average Zelda game.
>>738243232Let's not sleep on the music either, lots of good tracks in the OST.
>>738239715>that's literally emulationLeast retarded tendie.
>>738238930>peaks in the first hour of the game and is all downhill from thereI love Minish Cap and nah nigga youse just tripping.The story progression is intentionally "annoying", not sure why Crapcom did it the way they did.
>>738243683Where does it fall off and why, in your opinion?>The tutorial is peak...yeah?
>>738243790Exiting Minish Village and as soon as you enter the first dungeon of the game it's all downhill.First hour has peak atmosphere and is filled with so much child-like wonder, but then the actual "game" starts and it's not that good and kind of annoying as fuck actually.
>>738243924>Asked why>gives no specific reasons
>>738243984>is a whiny bitch who can't accept the reasons givenkekaroo
>>738244040Go back to /dbg/ faggot
>>738244040You gave literally zero reasons>IT'S ANNOYING!!!>why?>BECAUSE IT'S ANNOYING!!!>which part is annoying you, and why?>THE ANNOYING PART, BECAUSE IT'S ANNOYING REEEEEEEEHow brown of you.
>>738244172You asked where it fell off retarded bitch, maybe learn how to formulate a question.Everything is annoying, from the gameplay to the puzzles in the dungeons to the dungeon design itself (ice dungeon is totally pointless busywork, swamp temple is an absolute slog, sky temple is a slog and a navigation nightmare). Kinstones are annoying. Figurines are annoying. Having totally obtuse story progression (actually you must talk to the mayor in bumfuck nowhere to progress the story because... you just need to!) is annoying. Mirror shield sidequest is massively annoying even for Zelda standards. Etc...It is in essence, an annoying game, which is a shame because the music, visuals and atmosphere are ludokino.
>>738244354thanks for the ez (you) btw
>>738244354>You askedHere's what I asked.>>738243790>Where does it fall off and why, in your opinion?You never answered the "why" part.
>>738244354>It's annoying because it's annoying because it's annoying because it's annoying because it's annoying because it's annoying...Great answer.
>>738244429I did though bitch, you were given the answer that it fell off after the first hour, why, because the actual "game" starts at that point and the atmosphere can't carry Minish Cap as a game.As for what that "game" is, I explained it to you but it's actually self-evident, because the game, is the game. And in Minish Cap's case, it's a caca game. Glad to have cleared it up for you *sharts in your face*
>>738238930What's the fucking point of decompiling such a simple gameYou're not getting widescreenYou're not getting variable frame ratesYou're're not running it on anything that can't run gpspYou're losing fast forward and save statesJust wasting time
>>738244467Lol *ahem* *clears throat* cope
>>738244528>self-evidentPeople only say this when they are too scared to provice examples.Should I just accept your concession now? Or are you going to stop wasting time and answer my extremely simple question?
Actually retard bitch you were given very specific examples, do continue being a pissy little bitch however as I will now proceed to jerk off me massively large penis so no more replies will be given. *exits thread*
>>738244528>why is it bad? Well the reason's are self-evident!Curious how you tell someone to learn how to formulate a question when you yourself can't articulate actual answers.
imo the sky temple was pretty atmospheric. Only thing I remember from this game. It probably peaked there.
>>738244686You sound like a dork. No, i haven't read the thread
>>738244641>No examples>Too scared to directly reply to meI already accepted your concession.
>>738238930I think of Minish cap every day. For starters it’s based on my culture. My kin stone is weird.
>>738245409You're a gnome?
>>738245409Russian?
>>738238930Forgot? I own two cartridges of this..
>>738238930Aren't some brazilians working on decompiling it right now?
>>738242381Too bad you never fight him in this form. He won a sword tournament and we never get to clash blades???
You cant build the third house for the goddess, how did that happened?? Wtf capcom
Despite being a bit cryptic at times, I respect that this game expects you to not be a retard for the most part. It expects you to understand what your equipment does and explore the world.And, yes. I am a gentle giantess fetishist.>>738239535>was 3DI posted that as a hypothetical in a Minish Cap thread I made earlier in the year. In my opinion, WW would have benefited from being scaled down to a handheld game, and MC would have been improved as being the big console game. Plus, it would have been more graphically impressive than WW for the time, since, "Dude, you can change size and not load in a completely different area on the console."
Why has no one ever made the 3rd house mod? Is it just not possible?
>>738246576Why is Tetra taller than Link? She's the same height as him.
>>738246705I interpreted it as being egotistical, and seeing herself as bigger than she really is.
>>738246653Equip pegasus boots and milk, run into a wall 1000 times to turn the milk into cream, then lure the cats away with it. Trust me, my dad works at Capcom.
>>738238930This one and the the nintendo ds games (and majoras mask) were the only ones that felt like real fairy tales.
>>738246857Don't all Zelda games have a fairy tale thing going on to an extent?>OOT: the lost boy inna woods becomes a time traveller>WW: boy becomes the hero of legend to save his sister.>SS: the twink police officer living in the clouds has to save the missing prom queen
>>738248038They start out that way but they tend to have a tone shift towards wanting to be an epic fantasy but not having the confidence to do so. I much prefer the fairy tail orientation.
