>>12682152Unironically you should play Tokimeki Memorial if you want to train your mind and your will.
the fist of the north game retro games
Probably all of those brain games for the DS. Especially the math.That said, I have a near indestructible casio solar scientific calculator. Also solar is everywhere so there will be electricity and computers in the road warrior times.

With the death of modern physical media, do you anticipate another increase in retro game prices as people make the switch to older games?
>>12683802it has thousands of games. the notion that only exclusives are games are a nintoddler discord tranny meme
>>12683826What an absolute retarded thing to say. Of course it has thousands of games you can literally play anywhere else like indie games and remasters which most of these games you can play on other systems and the pc platform. I’m talking obviously about the exclusives which it really doesn’t have making the purchase of a ps5 the reason you got it over other consoles or a pc. Fucking retard. Anyway, killing physical will absolutely usher people to other places including retro.
>>12683875The majority of games worth playing are multiplats. It has almost all of the goty candidates every year. Nintendo is lucky to get 1 or 2. People bought it because it plays BG3 or E33 or GTAVI, Princess Peach Showtime and Echoes of Wisdom aren't bigger draws just because they're exclusive. And Xbox lost because xbone lost and ps5 has backwards compatibility
>>12683882The three games you mentioned are multiplats not system sellers outside of gta which hasn’t even released yet so has nothing to do w the already sold units. And literally no one cares about goty just like no one cares about the Oscar’s anymore. But if they did care (they don’t) all of the games u mentioned, again, are multiplats or will be in the singular case of gta6. You also failed to list games on Nintendos console like oh idk for the sake of ur own argument goty tears of the kingdom, which is totally exclusive to nintendo. So when I say I have no idea how they moved 90 million units off the back of games you can play on other systems and remasters, that’s a valid thing to say. You seem like u really like sony and really hate nintendo, which I’m a pc Xbox guy first and then I did eventually get a switch because they offered something unique but all I have right now are retro games for the switch 2 until the OoT remake comes out but otherwise I wouldn’t have picked one up. Either way sony will probably lose a lot of steam by the time the ps6 comes out and be just as dead as my boy Xbox is going to be in a year or so unless Asha the reaper can pull a miracle out of her phat ass.
>>12683890Also to tack on, I now have physical no internet needed copies of: Onimusha warlords, ultra street fighter 2, links awakening, Star Fox, final fantasy 1-10, and skyward sword tho that isn’t retro. As far as putting out physical games, Nintendo is the only console really doing that. Every single Xbox game I have, all of them, even the retro ones, have needed to be updated. Pretty sure you have to, to play them at all but maybe a handful of them did come w a complete game in disc. Point being of the three consoles and PC, only Nintendo is consistently putting out the full game on a physical cart you own that they can’t touch. That’s all I’m saying. And the ease and convenience of a system that can just be picked up and used as a handheld is icing on the cake. Do I think Nintendo is an extremely shitty company in other areas? Of course. They sue everyone and are retarded about that and more but as far as putting out physical releases, no one right now is doing it better then them and 90 percent of the games I’m getting for the system are retro or retro adjacent because none of these companies can put out consistently good modern games anyway much less physical copies of games. I’m seeing no point for even normies to pick up the next gen of either Xbox or PlayStation because all it will be is a walled off system that has almost no exclusives and they can take your games away at the drop of a hat.
Was this the perfect level of abstraction and skill ceiling?
>>12681181If the framerate doesn't regularly dip below 10, you didn't beat the game.
>>12681212If you played with uncapped framerates where helicopters and shit started acting weird as fuck, you super-beat the game.
>>12681130Zoomlets can't be bothered. They just emulate on their cell phones now.
>>12681313Can't blame them when hardware prices gone to shit and piracy gets you bad boy points in shitholes like germany
>>12681254The one woozie mission makes playing the whole game with uncapped framerate nearly impossible.

>>12683584Grand Prix Legends
>>12683584NFS - MW (Black box), Test Drive Unlimited (2, if you allow me to be a bit cheeky), Grand Prix 4.GP4 in particular is super fun and there's even expansive stuff like F1 2020 cars and tracks, if you like that sort of stuff
Recently beat GT64, I liked it, solid tracks even if there's only 3 (6 if you count the long versions of them), decent sense of speed and handling (you need to get used to them and tweak the car settings first).Graphics are a mixed bag and the framerate is very choppy, but I had a fun time with it.
>>12683589>>12683597>>12683617Thank you! I already know about NFS-MW, but the rest are new to me. I'll check them out.
You have been overtaken by Gairton Ceara of Minarae.Downforce and podium finishes will come to you, but ONLY if you post>YOUR DAYS ARE GONEin this thread.
>Decide to play N64 for the first time in over 20 years. Experience immediate revulsion over blurred graphics and low framerate. I legitimately don't think any console has aged worse than the N64. I can still go back and enjoy 16bit games. Even NES and Master System games still basically look and play how I remember them. But playing the N64 in 2026 just feels miserable. Am I better off just emulating these games now instead of playing on original hardware?
>>12683760>legit criticismsThe console is 30 years old. The games are 25-30 years old. The video output is interleaved scanlines for a CRT.>some of the games aren't worth playing in 2026Ok
>>12683760Yeah I'm part of an evil nintendo cult, me and my fellow brothers are gonna sacrifice a goat to make sure more youtubers talk about Banjo-Kazooie
>>12683732>>12683760yeah it really looks best on a CRT, and a lot of the games definitely still look quite good especially for their time.and then you have to ask, aged poorly compared to what? PS1, Saturn, and other consoles from that time also have plenty of games that look awful now.i've been playing battletanx global assault on N64 and having a great time, looks good and has been fun playing through the campaign which i played a lot but never completed as a kid.
>>12683131I play it through a retrotink 5x with a really good s video cable. I think it looks good most of the time.
>>12683131It's called N64 because it had 6+4 frames

>>12683827I can see why people are sad about nu-iD's current fate. I really don't care about the new Doom game at all, and while I actually don't disagree that it's for the better that they didn't take on Quake like they did for Doom back then, Doom 2016 itself to me still made all of nu-iD worth it.Doom 2016 had a number of flaws, but I also think that it's just about as good as a Doom 4 could ever have become under the circumstances that were.A throwback Quake 5 couldn't really have happened the same way, because there just wasn't this protracted and struggling development of it in the late 2000s and the 2010s, which then gets taken into an actual direction.Marty Stratton himself has flaws, like certain awful tastes, but he also is a diehard fan of Doom 64, and having a genuine lover of one of the classic games put in charge of wrangling Doom 4's protracted development into something meaningful I think is one of the reasons that it ended up working out.These circumstances, however, don't exist for a Quake 5, there isn't this old carcass of scrapped builds and changing directions lead by old seniors from the 90s and 2000s, and I doubt there's any ambitious visionary at 2020s iD who could meaningfully spearhead it, even before the layoffs.iD after Doom 2016 was focused on building from that game, but they just did not make the right choices.
I realize that I repeated myself there, but you get what I'm getting at.That said, what actual modding and mapping scene exists for the new Doom series? Have people actually made much of any custom campaigns or gameplay mods?
>>12683879There's a handful of maps available for Eternal, but I have no idea how many of these are actually new instead of just plopping different monsters and weapons into vanilla levels.https://mods.bethesda.net/en/doometernal/all?categories=Custom+Map&sort=POPULAR

Personally, I think TNT: Evilution is >= to The Plutonia Experiment in terms of overall quality.Yes, there are some gems in Plutonia, but the chaingunner & revenant spam is irritating.While TNT: Evilution does have some forgettable levels, the art direction and level design is pretty good; Additionally, it has a more consistent difficulty curve.That being said, what are your thoughts on Final DOOM?
>>12679257Outside of a small few levels (especially the secret ones), The revenant usage really isnt as crazy in Plutonia as their total numbers on doomwiki would imply, IMO.Chaingunners were definitely overkill at times, though.
>>12680115>For example MAP09 is the epitome of TNT's bullshit, it's NOTHING but hitscanners with their monotonous gameplayIt's one of my favorites, I love the massive and volatile gunfights. It's just fun as hell to bowl over a whole score of zombies with the Super Shotgun, or mowing them down in droves with the Chaingun, and they keep dropping more ammo for you.
I saw this screen as a kid and was so disgusted by its ugly that I never bothered with "Final Doom""Evilution" also sounded really mid 90s lame.
Is the PS1 version any good?
I never played doom 2 before playing Final doom. I only played doom shareware and snes doom before christmas of 96 when I got final doom. I didn't understand it was two different games and the doom 95 launcher defaulted to Plutonia. Also for some reason I thought not checking fast monsters meant the enemy wouldn't move at all. I spent all Christmas morning just trying to get through the first rooms of Congo before realizing my mistake.
was Air's Rock a well-designed dungeon?
It lacked important commentary from Jenna and Sheba
i don't remember it being bad.but the music is very good.https://youtu.be/TUixU-Vav8khttps://youtu.be/31RC68qd49U

Let's celebrate one of the most soulful franchises of retro.Which games in the series have you played? When did you play your first one? Share stories
>>12677583that game sucks
>>12680162Unlikely as it'd require translations for almost all of them + possible censorship so as to not to offend western sensibilities.However, I'm optimist for Konami working together with Etsunobu Ebisu again for an all new Goemon entry...We can dream.

Best starting point is either first one for SFC or first one for N64
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAI've been trying to practice this god damn game for YEARS and my scores are still complete dogshit(best score is like 68k points). I've played platformers all my life, watched pro highscore playthroughs on youtube, saw king of kong at least twice, even nearly FRAME PERFECT dodged a crazy barrel before its bullshit hit my back toeWHAT AM I DOING WRONG
It's a very hard game to master, I doubt most people on this board can get to your hi score, OP.I got picrel in one extremely good streak once but I think I also average in the 60~70kI remember another anon that got something like 200k or 300kAnd to think pro players can get to over a million.
>>12676305My best is 128.4k on the Switch. I was getting really into it for a while, it's got crazy depth and it's not hard to see how it became an obsession to some people. Theres a ton of skill and concentration needed to put up a decent score. I think to break your plateau consistently, you need to understand barrel steering, understand the flame spawning on the rivets stage, and understand the spring patterns in the L3+ spring stages. Theres no shame in watching videos on this. Theres just no way youre going to figure out L4 spring patterns on your own. Great game, I wish there weee more kongers or classic arcade gamers here. I actually like DK Jr better though.
>>12680981>understand the flame spawning on the rivets stageits not random?
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO DODGE TWO FUCKING CRAZY BARRELS LOCKING ON TO MY X/Y COORDINATES AT THE SAME TIME
DK Jr is equally as fun and challenging btw

The best mechanic ever invented is absolutely the Active Time Battle system, the original NES Final Fantasy games are great for their D&D rule set but the SNES games with combat always moving making every battle more demanding on the player to be fast and focused and always come up with strategies on the fly is one of the best things ever added, no game mechanic since has been as game changing as ATB.What do other anons think? Do you prefer your JRPGs be slow paced and allow you to stall for as long as needed before making a turn or do you like the battle to be constantly moving?
>>12681205Why are you gay?
>>12682541neither>some actions execute instantly on input regardless of what other characters are currently doing>other actions start a new gauge chargingthe only thing x2 messed up was giving certain moves wait mode priority.
>>12682574Who says I'm gay?
>>12674028it's a dumb gimmick to try and make combat seem more engaging and action packed to hide the fact that the core systems lack depth and real strategy/tactics
ATB only helped Cyan get this swordtech charges.
Boo Diddly from Mario’s Picross
>>12675270I assume the name is a play on "Boo Radley" of "To Kill a Mockingbird", a reclusive character who is symbolically invisible (like a ghost). "Boo Diddly" does make him sound like he diddles kids for fun though.
>>12682957>I assume the name is a play on "Boo Radley" of "To Kill a Mockingbird"Well you're probably wrong, because Bo Diddley was a musician.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ap8JtQZG73M
>>12682973Yeah, they were definitely referencing musicians in SMB3 and SMW (even Morton Downey Jr was a singer, despite not being remembered as such)
>>12683538>brought to you by the makers of KH: Chain of Memories, Game Boy Camera, and Sonic Battle
