Time for the people's choice!
That's enough for today, I'll have more Playstation Power on Monday!
>>12558406Here is were the legend of ISS PRO, PRO and PES started.
So this is it, right? This is where the genre peaked?Nothing, not even from the rest of Cave’s library, comes close to the tightness and expertise on display with Ketsui.

I'm looking for someone to 1cc Sonic Wings 2 in multiplayer mode. For now I can get to the Mexico stage without dying. I play Cincia & Ellen.Anyone wants to join?
>>12556432Sorry, not a big fan of Psikyo and pseudo-Psikyo games like Sonic Wings, but I'm open for 1cc attempts on any of these.
>>12556487I don't have enough practice with these to play them without being a hindrance, but I can do Mahou Daisakusen.
>>12557358I don't think I ever played this one in coop. 1CC'd it years ago with Chitta and honestly I find this game too punishing for dying. You get underpowered just from one single dead (kinda like Shotia from DOJ), which can result in multiple deaths in a row. The bomb is also just there to save your ass, cus it doesn't do any significant damage. Meanwhile the games in my "most played" all have some sort of mechanic or busted ship that make coop 1cc more doable. Giga Wing manages too be even easier than any of them, but it's also a snoozefest.
>>12558523Everybody while watching the telly
>>12558328Yeah even csgo was extremely fun from 2012-2014
>>12557675Peak. Reminds me of the old QuakeCon tournies.
>>12558523You didn't eat in front of a screen because you're civilizedI didn't eat because i have contamination and sym metry & arranging OCDWe are not the same.
>>12557675It kinda was. Just a few more rounds.
Sega went overboard trying to complicate things,adding tons of new mechanics,3 fucking dragons that play radically different and that you need to switch consistantly...And the game is way too long it must be awfull to try the 1CCYou unlock the first panzer dragoon when you beat the game and to my surprise despite the ugly (but charming) graphic,the 20 FPS and extremely simplistic mechanics i enjoyed it more than OrtaImo arcade style games are better when they are easy to pick up, with "simplistic" but very strong core gameplay and the depth coming from the level and enemy designFinal fight is the epitome of that,only 2 buttons (jump and punch) and still one of the greatest action game of all time
>>125558062 > 1 > azel > orta
The different forms are undercooked. If you don't know what's coming you have to sit in the crappy defensive form most of the time, or you're going to be cycling back to it. Having to cycle through the 3 forms over and over is half the battle of the game. And the forms have an upgrade system, and you need to be in the particular form you want upgrades for when they randomly spawn on the screen. And then of course the forms end up making most of the battles drawn out, because the game has to built the damage around the heaviest damaging form, which you're not going to be in, but that you could be in. It's not the worst game out there, it could've been a lot worse, but it overall fails to deliver with the depth it hoped to add.
>>12555806>Sega went overboard trying to complicate thingsThey knew it was the series swan song. Game series which are on the brink of cancellation or exhaustion and devs make the best out of that last chance to give fans closure and cram as much as possible can give great results.>>12555827>Fuck the Shiturn.Bernie Stolar did his best to kill the series and is the reason why Saga has that ridiculously low print run in the first place
>>12555825based
>>12556430>Bernie Stolar did his best to kill the series andoh, well. figures.
The arcade original version of Namco's Legend of Valkyrie is such a great action game. I recently got into this one and was disappointed that the only translation around was for the mediocre PC Engine port, I then found out that apparently some french guy translated the original arcade game:https://coinoplegacy.com/en/valkyrie-no-densetsu-translation/Unfortunately the link to the python script for the translation is 404 and I can't find it nor a patched rom anywhere. Does anyone here happen to know where could I get the translation? If I ever find out I'll probably upload it to archive.org.
>>12550316Even today, they could release something worthwhile. But instead, they released some trash metroidvania pacman game that looked like it was made by turdworlders>>12546036>>12549341Feet drawings are all that the series are good for now apparently. Embarrassing
>>12553419Hell, even Druaga could probably do well as a soulslike or something nowadays, but instead Bamco prefers to only make new Pac-Man games and leave everything else in the trash.
>same universe as Pac-Mandeepest lore
>>12550316>they were working on an RPG of sorts that looked like it could have had fleshed out the world and characters more.They did and it was only released for japanese phones
>>12550316like Sega they would come up with franchises and then immediately drop them like a hot potato
Whats your opinion on Game Boy Advance console aesthetic, feel and games? I think the indigo color is awesome, the size is just right not too small nor too big like a switch 2 for example, the pixel graphics are sharp and made for pixel display so they dot have those noisy dither of crt consoles art, the games are the best of 16 bit and 2d ps1 style games with more content and unlockables than the 16 bit games but with just as good gameplay.
>>12557027>smaller resolution than the snes and no backlight leads to lower power consumption,. aka the thing that killed atlantisshocker
Does anyone know a good source for replacement GBA lenses that actually look OEM?The fuckass glass ones are not only too dark but the Gameboy Advance logo has this holographic backing on it that blows your corneas out if you so much as angle it towards any amount of light.Know it's a mega-autist problem but I'd love to get some real basic bitch ones that look like the real deal and slap a screen protector on it.
>>12557047What, wait.. XL and non-XL model both have the exact same resolution
>>12550197hated it. got it on release and the missing backlight WAS a deal breaker. the games were good tho.
>>12558245Yes, and GBA SP and GB Micro also have the same resolution. But pic says screen *size*, not resolution. New 3DS XL = GBA SP size, regular New 3DS = GB Micro size, set in 1:1 mode. So people favor the N3DSXL for the same experience as original hardware. Regular is more portable trough.
Zoomers found out about Plok
You're slow>>12553513No one really gave a shit about moonchild, and it's basically relegated bluesky faggots.
Don't anger the PLOK!He will mess you up, brother.
>>12553423They already did years ago when they found out about the boss theme.

>>12559524yeah

>>12556384alright
I've heard some pretty retarded criticisms about this game; everything from "there aren't enough wide open fields" to "there's no 1 frame reload animation for the shotguns". Spurious, meaningless nitpicks. The fact is, this game is better than the original games. DOOM II was my first PC shooter, and 25 years later I can play DOOM 64 and happily admit, without bias, that this is the superior experience. The graphics and graphical style are better. The color palette and lighting systems are better. The weapons are better (both visually and mechanically, such as the vastly improved chaingun and BFG), the monsters are more intimidating with less cartoonish designs and generally greater in size (such as the enourmous Cyberdemon that makes the original look like a manlet), the sprites were sourced from fully rendered 3D models rather than fucking pictures of household objects and toy guns, the ambient music is unintrusive and enjoyable compared to the blaring MIDI tunes found in the PC originals, there are more types of traps and hazards, puzzles and secrets are more complex, the hidden levels are vastly more interesting, and the final boss fight is as good or better than DOOM 1. Say what you want about mod capabilities and wads, but taken purely as an unadulterated singleplayer experience, DOOM 64 is better than the classic DOOM games.
>>12556547Doom 64 is very good, I loved it, my only criticism being that there aren't enough enemy types, the super shotgun doesn't have animations and that I think they switched up the cacodemon and pain elemental sprites.Other than that yeah the ambiance is unmatched, the gameplay is good and the levels look very nice.
>>12556547Based OP. Every single thing you said was correct. Doom 64 is the peak of Doom.>there's no 1 frame reload animation for the shotgunsI literally prefer no reload whatsoever to the ugly as ass reload animation of Doom 2's super shotty. Shits just gross to look at.
>>12556547Great game but unironically to dark
Any good mods for Doom that adds the ambient music and colored lighting that the N64 and PSX games offered?
>>12556972That's a retarded comparison. Sonic CD added way more to Sonic 1 than 2 did.
While I understand the simple appeal of her classic design, I firmly believe that Amy Rose’s Adventure design is superior.
>>12557558This, Rouge, and Wave make me really love Sonic Rider's designs
>>12557558breasts too smallunironically
>>12552610there's a lore reason for those, you know
>>12557558Fixed>>12557560Reminder, amyposters are mostly 30+ yr old men reliving their sexless childhood crush, like cocofagsbefore the coombrain took over>>12555621definitely not ripped off from space jam's lola bunny>looks at designers & artists>all japaneseprobably not, disregard
What's the appeal? I felt like playing a SNES jRPG and this was the first non-FF/DQ/PS/Earthbound/etc. one I found. Is there any particular reason why this series is popular?
>>12558120>Is there any particular reason why this series is popular?One of the few series released in the US; and the first game benifited from Squaresoft published marketing.It's really blend. If you want more interesting SFC RPGs try G.O.D. - Mezame yo to Yobu Koe ga Kikoe or Herakles no Eikou 4 or Terranigma for ARPG. Hell I personally rate Robotrek higher than BoF despite how short it is, at least it's more unique.
>SNES jRPGBreath of Fire is a Playstation seriesOne that was stolen from Nintendo kekaroooooNo one cares about BoF1 zoomie zoom
>>12558120The first BoF is a bit rough around the edges but it's a good game if you have the patience for it.The appeal of Breath of Fire games compared to other JRPGs comes from its characters, their respective races and cities and the world-building. All games share themes and names and they are related despite being eons or alternate universes apart, so it's nice to find references and tie-ins regularly.Regarding gameplay, the experience they offer can be very straightforward, with Dragon Quarter being the experimental exception; it's basic RPG fare with little to no customization to your characters' grow like FF or DQ. Even with that, it's nice to see how the game's plot unfolds like a fantasy book.Capcom's strength isn't found in role-playing games but it was nice to see them try their luck at the genre with this franchise.
>>12558120>the first non-FF/DQ/PS/Earthbound/etc. one I found. bitch why would you pick bof1 over chrono trigger???
I've tried to play through this game on a number of occasions but I just can't bear it past a few levels or so. It's just so ungodly slow and the controls don't ever seem to get easier with experience. Am I wrong? Do you any of you like it? What am I missing? Or is it simply a load of old gorilla poo, fresh from the chute?
>>12557195I like it. It has nice graphics and the game is pretty fun too. I don't think the game is inherently slow as most levels can be beaten in under a minute. Most of the slowness is caused by the player's actions like falling down after missing a jump, or pausing to think or to kill enemies, so you can influence the speed with your decisions.The controls are weird and even after completing the game I still make mistakes with them sometimes. I think the tricky controls are actually the main challenge the game has to offer and overcoming them makes successfully moving around feel rewarding.
>>12557195>>12557401Looks like soulless mobile game landfill shit.
>>12557195Damn I havnt thought of this game in ages. I only ever remembered it as an aggressively 6/10 game. I remember I finished the game yet I cant recall a single detail beyond the L&R button control scheme being sort of neat.
The sequel was better.
>>12558182what makes it better?
People would have called you gay and beat you up for playing this crap back in the day. But now zoomers rate it as a top retro game. What caused this change?
>>12552309>they would GET cum on their faces.
>>12549789toriyama's art is so dogshit my fucking god
>>12555228So... They wanted to translate a DBZ game when OG dragon ball was still airing? Imagine all the confusion was going to cause.Pretty based in my opinion
>>12556296Considering some parts of Mexico before 98 already got plenty of the Spaniard DBZ movie releases up until Broly and Bojack at that point? On bootleg VHS for rentals nonetheless, (ever got one of those green VHS tapes? That one had DBZ Bojack unbound in Spanish.
>>12544425If I knew you played this it's probably because you're annoying because I definitely did not ask. You deserved the beatings.
SNES games without time restrictions
>>12557943Is it normal to have trouble with accurate platforming in super metroid? I was straight up vibing fr until I got to maridia and then there was quicksand and janky wall jumps and "yo hit this lone grabble beam block" and I dropped that shit.
>>12557943>has timer at the start>has timer at the end>best ending locked behind time restrictiontry again OP
Once you git gud at a game, you don't have to worry about timers.
