>>12434142Isn't it just Rampage?
>>12435367No you dumb ass
>>12435436I'm fairly certain it's just Rampage
"It took me this long to realize that Resident Evil – Code: Veronica is a masterpiece of a game"- Stone Ocean - Chapter 88Was he right?
Do you use it? Do you like it?For me, it's just an extra thing that motivate me a little bit more to play older games
>>12437351Did you look at the pokedex subset? If you want to grind for 3 days with fast-forward just to get to the first gym, then by all means.
>>12437354But that's the whole point of the achievement page. It's like the subset that make you get the rarest drop from everymob in Secret of Mana.
>>12437361Yes and if I can cheat to get it quicker, then why not? If you can still earn achievements while cheating, it makes sense to do it. If you have no life or extreme collection autism, then by all means do the Shiny subset for Pokemon Yellow. It really is peak autism.
>>12437309>Some games are a chore to play really, like Rad Racer 2,A sane feller'd duck that shit, but a fucked-up bum keeps wasting his time playing something he hates just for some made-up cheevo validation from another bum.The fact you don't see how goddamn twisted that is—and you even defend it—is straight-up insane to me.
I could never get them to work for certain systems, like the Apple II. Also, never play Number Munchers as an adult. Holy shit it makes you feel retarded.
A lot of retro games aren't great for learning japanese at a certain level because they're either:>only in hiragana>have kanji but the font makes them extremely hard to readWhich is unfortunate because I started learning to play games like the MOTHER series in their original language but those games are fully in hiragana (as far as i can tell) which is imo hard to read.Newer games have all these fancy features like furigana toggles and voice acting but I'm partial to retro.I'm wondering if any of you have experience playing retro vidya as a jp learner and if you have any recs for immersing.
>>12436845Mother 3 is literally the reason I started learning Japanese. Breath of Fire II and that Tenchi Muyo game on SNES were the last games I played in Japanese. I also tried playing one of the Saburo Jinguji games on PSX because a friend of mine who's into the series and was curious about those games wanted my help with them, but it was a bit dense for me. I never got too good at the language despite all my years studying it.I'm not sure what to recommend for a learner, but I think there's a lot of visual novel type games on PSX/2 if you're into that.
>>12437106Yea that's probably for the best although some of the recs from here >>12436903 like tokimeki look finewtf is that pic Lol>>12437124Looks like the PS version has voice acting too! Nice>>12437138>Mother 3 is literally the reason I started learning Japanese.Same for me at least one of the reasons. Did you finish it because I'm considering just dealing with the kana for MOTHER 2/3.Breath of Fire II's text looks fine so ill keep that in mind too.>visual novel type games on PSX/2I guess there's a shitton on the ps2 at least. Never knew that.
>>12437234>wtf is that pic LolSome 8-bit games use 8x8 kanji as a way to troll foreigners.
>>12437271imagine being the guy that designs new typefaces in japanese or chinesethey're either in it for the love of the job or there's a method that makes it not miserable
>>12436845>A lot of retro games aren't great for learning japanese at a certain levelThe real truth is that all Japanese native media is "not great" for learning Japanese, because Japanese creators do not care about what JSLs think. They make things with the expectation that native JP speakers are engaging with it, regardless of their age.No one "writes down" to JSLs. When they do "write down" to younger readers, it is usually in ways that are not a help at all to JSLs, again, because of the expectation as to who is engaging with it.So, when you fire up an episode of imouto-core anime like Pretty Cure and hear words such as 汚名返上 (freq: 48k+) or 燻り出す (freq: so low it isn't measured), or when you're playing Pokemon and bump into 水夫 (freq: 30k+), or when you're reading LNs aimed at younger readers and see something like 泡沫 (freq: 32k+), they don't care, because the writers are expecting the younger audience to either intuit the meaning based on context, or to have already heard this word somewhere before, or to ask their parents/older siblings/dog/whoever.When they bump into grammar elements (lol) like がてら, or びる (as in 大人びた and similar), or すら, they don't stop and think "holy shit N1 grammar, not bothering with THAT shit", again defaulting to either intuition, prior knowledge, or asking someone wiser for advice.Your only choice is >>12436851, just keep reading, listening, playing. There is no quick or easy way that this stuff becomes second nature to you except to steep in it as much as possible.
the only interesting game bungie ever made before they started making slow boring shit
>trying this hard
>>12437197but pathways is extremely slow and boring
>>12437197i lol'd
Even Marathon 1 was better than this shit

>>12419903I've had the best luck at Goodwill and other thrift stores, especially thrift stores that are associated with churches. Even if they don't have any TVs at the moment, introduce yourself and leave your number. I've had plenty of callbacks over the years. They're usually very eager to get rid of the bulky TVs.
>>12436782It switches automatically if you play an NTSC Region 2 or ALL DVD (e.g. Japanese). I think you need CFW to force it otherwise.
>>12436772I just ran another cable to my HTPC. I just change the primary display to the CRT when I want to use it.overscan isn't as bad as you'd think.
>Set up CRT Emudriver on my main PC>Have to disable safe boot and enable testsigning to get image>Have to disable it every time I want to play onlineBack to using my raspberry pi I guess...
Just picked this KV-32V25 up for 8 bucks. Anyone know if it has that VSM plug that some of these sets have?I might mod it for component but I don't think the risk of breaking it is worth the minimal upgrade from s-video
I've reached the Gold City and this game is complete garbage. It's unfathomably clunky and has some of the worst bosses and combat I've ever experienced. It's not an old game thing considering Zelda nailed the action combat 7 years prior.This is Nostalgia: The Game, nothing else.
>>12437187SD3 is great, I never clicked much with Terranigma
>>12436684I love the game, but it does have serious flaws.>>12436719>Trials of Mana, is vastly, vastly superiorI really don't agree. I actually find it a bit frustrating that the developers seemed to struggle so much with improving the formula. As ambitious and creative as it was in some ways, Legend has even worse combat somehow.
It's fun with friends
Finished it for the first time recently despite playing it for like 25 years. It was fun, and I want to play Trials soon. Is it overhyped? Yes. But it's a really good game for the SNES, and the music/graphics are really great.
>>12436826Contrarian is pretending like Square wasn't already great when FF7 came out.
The peak of the Stealth genre.
>>12435860
>>12436841it's called cinematography
>>12435715I like Blacklist better. But in terms of retro gaming, yes it is peak.

What am I in for?
>>12435237>I still wish the PSP version was a port not a remake.It is a port, its just an enhanced port.
>>12435102>using demons is mostly pointlessPretty sure I've seen you post this exact thing before, and I'm not sure where you developed this insane opinion. But I hope nobody has an interest in these games that would listen to you and fuck themselves over by not using demons.
>>12436498>black person without basic reading comprehension
>>12436498Not him but I have posted that same point too, Demons just suck balls in MT1 and 2, SMT 1, 2 and IF... they didn't get good until Devil Summoner and Persona 1 (your party are more like demon human hybrids and magic is OP compared to the classic era of auto battling with swords and guns with just the MC)
>>12436820I remember when I played SMT2 I only ever summoned my demons when I needed them for boss fights. The old games kinda punished you for using demons needlessly with the magnetite system too.
And I still had a question. Some anons were saying that it has stuff no one else has but i don’t even know wtf this even is: >>12421121 #Teknoparrot is the most up to date on myrient as well, the eggman repo also seems to only be on there.wtf is an eggman repo or a temperate. Seriously. And why is it so rare or not found on any other rom site. Anyway, continue discussion or not I was just curious what that even was.
>>12436997That's how it's set up by default. You can turn off the extraction plugin in the settings.
>>12436997>am clinically retardedDat sad af, bruh, gon pray fo yo retard-assanyway, grew up wit NBA Jam on dat genesis, can a nigga borrow da best version?? which is?
Just archiving what I can to a 2TB external drive I am just going to keep in storage for when it's needed. Got the Nintendo Gigaleak and Gamefreak Teraleak files, those alone take up a over half the drive. Got a few random things here and there I was interested in, and now I have about 180GB free.Was wondering if anyone else had any suggestions for anything interesting I could backup in that remaining 180GB. Not really bothering with things I can easily get elsewhere like just about anything from Redump or No-Intro. Was considering maybe the Touhou set but stripped out of most fan content so it would fit, but there are probably better things I can do with that remaining space. What is that "Hardware Target Game Database" listing? Seems to be just random games, hacks, and homebrew for a few dozen systems. Or any really tiny No Intro sets that are just a few megs, or few hundreds at most, that I can toss on there just because they are so small and would take up almost no space for obscure or less popular systems.
>>12437363Get all touhou stuff.
>>12437364If I do I can easily get the official stuff for PC with about 80GB to spare, but I can't get the stuff made for other consoles, nor most of the fan content. 100% of all of the Touhou stuff on Myrient is around 300GB. So I can't fit all of Touhou on that drive, and if I only get the official stuff and everything else that isn't a fangame I would still have about 80GB left for other things.
...and yet no one gives a fuck about the game because it's not MUH NINTENDO
>>12437141Nothing wrong with influence and iterating on it. Worst thing you can do is deny it. All I said was Nintendo didn't invent racing games.
>>12437129No one said they did.
>>12437286So there's nothing wrong with making a racing game that should upset anyones sensibilities.
>>12437293No one said there was anything wrong with using other games as reference. The only one upset is OP because of his hallucinations.
doing the cups on hard and the rubberbanding is pretty ridiculous, the way some racers recover after being btfo just makes zero sense
Who was the target audience for Nights into Dreams?
>>12434927i've been feeling that anons have been very accepting of night's sexual deviancy, so perhaps your feelings stem from within
>>12435172Only because it already is.
>>12429165It's just the vibe, man.
Any homebrews made using the NiGHTS engine?

>>12437145Agree, within the theme of Quake 2's cyborg body horror, the monsters are all rather varied and distinct, you're not mistaking one for the other.
>>12437135>Guy but with red eyes and bloodyThat goes right next to the imp as one of the most stock standard depictions of a demon.
>>12437205fuck, so closealmost all the weapons show properly, only the laser shotgun has an issue where it shows a gore sprite during one of its reload animations
>>12437352correction, the other shotgun is also busted and still shows the revenantshame
Given that enemy behavior is different on Nightmare I'm surprised that there was never a NM-Pacifist timing category.I imagine any map with multiple hitscan enemies would probably be impossible in such a category but generally the notion of NM-Pacifist does seem doable.
