Say something about Yoshi's Island.
Speedruns of this game are insane
>>12750573Yoshi's island for the SNES is a fantastic game, a masterpiece even. Shame about the series it spawned.
>>12750573has the best looking yoshi
It's insane how the minigame VS mode was hidden behind a secret method.It actually makes me mad because I could have enjoyed playing it with friends and siblings back in the day but I just had no clue.The worst part? I actually owned magazines that gave it away, but it seems I was too dumb as a kid to read all of the pages and just skimmed through looking at the pics.
>>12750573It was without a doubt one of the games I've ever played.
I'm sorry gamers but...it's underrated.
>>12761539I'll be the suits who approved that title had one hell of a laugh, because yeah, the game fucking sucks ass.
>>12761541No it's really fun.
>>12761539Disagree. This is like a crippled version of Cabal. At least Cabal was fun.
Star Control II (Also known as Ur-Quan Masters, also known as Free Stars: The Ur-Quan Master) got an update with the Mega Mod recently. The latest updates have added two major features:>Randomization modes that randomize the Galaxy layout, planet resources, event locations, alien locations, and even alien ships. Dialogue is appropriately altered to fit this.>Ship storage. Store ships at the starbase for later. Crucially, gifted ships will be sent here if your current loadout is full.Why aren't you replaying Star Control 2 now? What better time will there be?https://uqm-mods.sourceforge.net/Home
>>12756471I can't really. I keep geting killed by that borg like species when trying to travel through hyperspace. I'll get a proper controller setup. The 3do version I'm playing on retroarch seems to work pretty well though, aside from my not having a controller.
>>12759594If you don't have fwiffo or max thrusters for the mothership you basically can't beat them. It's one of the worst things in the game. With max thrusters you.will be jusy barelynfaster than the probe.You can take the mothership and fly close to a planet and escape warp- gravity stops effecting you when you warp and the slylandro will probably not damage you very much because it will try to avoid tye planet
>>12758203Zoq is crap. mine more. buy more Spathi ships while you still can. i think the next step is to find those spider guys with flamethrower ships and mindfuck them with psychic messages or something.there's a time limit but you probably don't need to worry about it unless you're purposely trying to see the bad ending. check a walkthrough or a labelled map if you're really lost.
>>12759594>retroarch memenot this shit again. and the open sauce version was made because it can combine both the best parts of DOS and 3DO version, and you decide to screw yourself over anyway.
>>12759594>The 3do version I'm playing on retroarchWhy would you emulate this game, that's unhinged
What are the best post-90s arcade games?
>Can't say a good essential Naomi games cause it's 90s>Can't say a good couple 2000s games because "um, ackshully, the hardware was from post 2001"Fine, if we're going to play that way, Initial D arcade stage 3. Released 2003, and on the Naomi 2, hardware released around 2001. There, a post 90s arcade game that's retro.Also Metal Slug 3, unless you're going to be hyper autistic and claim "The year 2000 is actually the 90s".
>>12756304I agree, it is better than 2.

What was the modding the original xbox and xbox-scene like between 2001 and 2005?
>>12761518the fuck did they blur her feet for, god fucking dammit
>>12761518Lots of cheating and matrix based themes.
It's Diddy's Kong Quest, not Diddy Kong's Quest.It's Stickerbush Symphony, not Stickerbrush Symphony.It's Expresso the Ostrich, not Espresso the Ostrich.Why can't DKC fans spell?

What are some underrated gems based on kinos like pic related? No Goldeneye or Spider-Man 2
Jurassic Park (Snes)True Lies (snes)
>>12761000>True LiesI was gonna say this, surprisingly decent.
Heard good things about this game, not sure why the devs did just the second movie and not the first and third though.
>>12761046This is really good, but incredibly hard aswell. I can't get past the 3rd level without cheating.
>>12755436This game came out in Japan?
Here's the ACTUAL hard fax list of the Top game for each generation, you can't argue numbers brah.>Gen 1Pong>Gen 2Pac-Man>Gen 3Super Mario Bros.>Gen 4Tetris (GB)>Gen 5Pokémon (GB)>Gen 6GTA San Andreas Anything else is a secondary, literally.

Didn't realize it took Sony until the PS2 to actually start dominating
Thoughts on the TG-16/PCE and it's library of games?
>>12760391>You got a problem with Klax?No not really. Its a perfectly serviceable game. Its just not something I would reccomend if trying to sway someone to try out the TurboGrafx-16. Not too mention its been ported to practical every other console so its not even exclusive.
>>12734598that controller looks like a torture device
>>12734598When I was a kid I got paid $100 dollars to go to some building in Itasca and talk about video games with a group of kids. The adults were like "hey what do you think about this idea?" and every idea they presented, from design to characters and types of games, we kids almost unanimously agreed were crappy. A year later I saw the TG16 and was like "hey I recognize that!" and told my parents to buy me a Genesis instead. Dipshits should have fucking listened to us.
>>12760912>that controller looks like a torture deviceSuper comfy actually. >>12760950Based if true. Can you give more details? That sounds like a really cool experience. Were they trying to push Bonk on you guys?
>>12760987Yeah, the default turbo conrrollers were nice. They were light but solidly built, the d-pad was good and built-in turbo switches was maybe a bit of a marketing gimmick but it was also a really convenient feature. I put heavy mileage on mine and even threw it once or twice in a fit of autistic rage and it never broke. My only gripe is that the cord was too short. I would have liked to try the arcade stick but never could justify the expense to my parents, who were not into video games.>didn't it come with a controller?>yes>It is broken?>no>then why do you need another one?>because the other one has a stick>....I think you can live without that
Retro PC games released between November 22 2005 and December 31 2007
Crysis made Half Life 2, Halo 2, Doom 3, Quake 4, FEAR, Far Cry, Riddick, Battlefield 2, Call of Duty, CS Source... (and many early 7th gen consoles games) all look a feel like a complete joke.A monumental step up in technology and graphics fidelity.
>>12761297That does look cool, actually.
pretty good one
>>12761042>>12761123practically they played it on gpsp kai on psp. That's how absurd that console was that when it was hacked, new games released on previous gen's gba could be played on next gen console
>>12761283They only come when you post the words "Sega System" in your OP

What would you say is the single worst thing to ever happen to retro gaming?
>>12759136Nothing you described has ever happened and you are mentally ill
>>12761102Feeling called out, tranny?
Also from what I was posting with the OP, the answer is NintendoageThey are the very first ones who saw retro gaming as solely an investment to cash out later on. They never cared about retro games as much as making money, and then eventually manipulated online sales so that games would spike in price. The owner even shut it down because he wanted to sell his collection to Heritage A huge part of why retro gaming spiked up in price and is the way it is now is because of Nintendoage
>>12761248>A huge part of why retro gaming spiked up in price and is the way it is now is because of Nintendoageretro games were always going to get expensive eventually. that's what happens to things that are no longer made. this are basic economic principles that you fell asleep in class for. you stupid NIGGERS constantly trying to find scapegoats to cry over are just flaunting your low intelligence for everyone to see

>>12758428Great stuff... luv' me sum beat 'em ups, just go right and beat suckers up.
Choice is an illusion.
>>12749478That's pretty cool actually
>>12748808Do you take the red queen or the blue knight?
>>12759458Not much roleplaying when you can only roleplay as one thing
>>12751702Love this image. Old school DQ was so cozy.
>>12749564>>12751232This is also why the spell names are the way they are. Chances are they probably weren't going to call a heal spell a boring ヒール anyway but it's hilarious to think that a huge part of the series' identity came from not being able to fit a ヒ into the cartridge.
