Mega Man 2 was huge for guys who grew up with the NES, they say it's the best one.Those who discovered Mega Man through emulators, Anniversary collection or Legacy Collection, what's your opinion on this game? Did it stand out as the best one for you?
I played MM1-6 all back to back and. I honestly don't remember liking one much more than the others. I do remember not liking MM2 as much because of some questionable design choices. The boo beam boss is bullshit. I think everyone likes it because it's easiest -- the metal saw just chews bosses.I think I remember liking MM3-6 more than the first two, with maybe MM6 being my favorite?
>>122518232 is good4 is my favorite
>>12254952This is so right though.He cute too
>>12260637MM2 is easy as fuck, but you can play all them pretty quickly in a day so it's the perfect starting point to get back into the MM groove before tackling the others. 1 is hard AF, at least for me
>>122518234-6 are the best
>can solve these very fast as an adultDammit. I was hoping to have some nostalgic brain teasers.
>Play children's game>disappointed by lack of challengeThat box art looks unfinished
>>12262859>That box art looks unfinishedWas the style at the time
Isn't it weird how Jigglypuff was shilled a lot back in gen 1 as the Pikachu for girls? It's not even that important in Pokemon Red and Blue, not a single named npc uses one, you can easily miss it, Clefairy a few steps north is a direct upgrade and yet it got a recurring appearance in the anime, got into fucking smash (pretty underserved)Eevee in contrast has actually become the "Pikachu for girls" without any first installment weridness shilling necessary, just by pure merit of its design.
>>12256572>>12257853It’s yawnfag. Call him a try hard he hates tha shit
>>12253120Yeah, it kind of brought the anime down a notch, the Jigglypuff with the microphone was an annoying recurring character and a one note joke that was never funny in the first place
>>12253120Jigglypuff was a crowd favorite. Its appearance in the anime was everyone's favorite recurring gag. The heavy marketing was less a forced push and more of a retaliatory action after seeing its popularity.

I'm looking for a Gen 2 mod and even Emerald mod that allows QoL enhancements, but doesn't go full retard adding in pokemon from newer gens, or things that weren't in their respective gens. Would the legacy games be good for this or is there something better?
>>12260403Of course I forgot the pic. I have ratbrain.
>>12260296>adding 20 extra grinding hours or item abuse with a shitmon team does not make them goodpaging batschizo
>>12260110Polished > Legacy
>>12262346agreeing with this. Me and my cousin have both been playing Polished and having an absolute blast with it. There are just a ton of smart little changes throughout the game (even a nice little change on how registered items can be accessed), a good boost in difficulty while still feeling balanced, and improved sprite art that helps accentuate the experience more than overwrite it. The amount of work the romhacker put in is honestly very, very impressive and I can't sing it's praises enough. It's the only pokemon game that has me legit embracing the various post gen 2 autisms like abilities, natures, and IV's just because it's so good. Here's a bad screenshot of a moment yesterday that had me hop off my chair in excitement. Can't remember the last game that had me doing that.
>>12262880>but doesn't go full retard adding in pokemon from newer gens, or things that weren't in their respective gens.that's the only caveat though. It adds regional forms for the pokemon that existed in gen 1 and 2, and it gives you the option to turn on or off the other stuff. I personally suggest leaving it on though as it's actually pretty fun to mess with considering the difficulty boots. Really feels like you are both building and raising your individual pokemon.
What went soo horribly wrong?Besides the success of Sarge's Heroes and Air Attack series. How did 3DO Company fumble this up soo badly?
It's holiday weeks ahead and we're all gonna gather with family and friends.What games are you planning to play on multiplayer for the occassion?I'm having a lot of Sega Saturn fun (mostly Capcom fighters) with my friends and cousins
>friendslopwhy anyone would want to play a multiplayer game is beyond me. i don't play games to fucking socialize. they're my escape from having to socialize.
>>12262708Some people like to socialize you autist. Damn you're worse than me.
>>12262710>Some people like to socializesounds like some kind of disease
>>12262595I recently purchased some Guncons for both PS2 and the PS1. I've been wanting to play multiplayer Guncon games for a while. Elemental Gearbolt is my favorite for the PS1 and for the PS2 its Vampire Night.
>>12262595>POV: Pierce's girlfriend stood on a scale and he did NOT like what he saw.
has some good /vr/ ever made given you more appreciation of modern games?I bought dark souls on the switch a little bit ago. i never really got very far the first time i played it like a decade ago, but at the start of the year i went back and played the king's field trilogy on ps1 and the whole fromsoft vibe just kind of clicked with me, so decided to return to dark souls.in 10 days I've put 95 hours into it, and beaten it with three different characters. currently running through ng+2 on a pyromancer. it's fucking fun as hell.
No, the more retro I play makes new games look less and less appealing. I haven't played a new game in any major capacity since 2017 and I'm fine with that.

>>12262787no.

Would Chrono Trigger be as a success today if it had a Final Fantasy artstyle

>>12261417>All of Dragon Quest's protagonists are all variations of Gohan cosplaying as a swordsman.Dragon Quest came first, Gohan is a Dragon Quest protagonist cosplaying as a half alien martial artist. My headcanon is that Piccolo is a rejected demon king design for DQ3 since it's too much of a coincidence that Toriyama had a demon king villain in DB a few months after DQ2 came out and while he was working on DQ3.
Post characters that you consider forgotten.

>>12260627Literally getting remasters and a new game
>>12260615This is such an unfathomably bland design. The only thing that makes it even remotely memorable is the goggles. Did the creators really have no understanding of what made characters like Sonic, Crash, Spyro, Ratchet & Clank, etc. iconic?

>Is the greatest fighting game ever in you're pathNothing personell, don't be mad.
>>12261082I get what you mean, I played ranked a lot for a long time as well and got pretty high up. First on fightcade then SF collection on my PS4, but the negativity of some players caused me to enjoy it less. Now I play the game with IRL friends, or arcade mode after work. It's more enjoyable for me this way. I always play Ryu and Necro

One of the common debates among the klassic mk games is the setting the games evoke. I actually enjoy the progression because why is being stagnant good, why repeat yourself as a new franchise that hasn't been established enough to be nostalgic or "set"?>MKMost reminiscent of kung fu cinema with a dark fantasy edge and tongue in cheek nature. Basically this was entirely informed by Enter the Dragon, Bloodsport, and Big Trouble in Little China, a mysterious martial arts tournament Island led by an otherworldly sorcerer >MKIIAs per the story, this takes us outside of Earthrealm entirely, the settings have much more dark fantasy because we're exploring that side of the world >MKIIINow we go in reverse, Outworld invades Earth so there's some more modern cityscape environments, but it's also still split between dark gothic aesthetics and hellscapes It all works to me, I never really thought it needed to be debated, it's all part of the world MK exists in and makes perfect sense for the narrative being painted
I've always respected how each sequel was completely different and made pretty much from scratch when japanese fighting game sequels would normally rehash as much material as possible
>>12260105III would've been fine if scorpion was base roster and bi-han was a secret character but with a skull head or something.would've definitely quelled 70% of the complaints.

>>12262221Executive was right. Badass nerd was a pretty original trope for the time.
Is it too mean to say people who don't want to download a PDF of an instruction manual deserve to be filtered by games that require it?
No.
>>12262079People who don't want to download a PDF of an instruction manual deserve to be filtered by games that require it
>>12262073Of course they deserve it. Old games didn't "lack" tutorials in the same way a game like Rain World does, what they lacked was the space needed to explain how things worked in the game itself, so they had to use instruction manuals and proper game design in tandem.
>>12262073too mean? no, i don't think you know what it means to be nasty, if you have to ask.telling someone they're uninformed for skipping the homework is the mildest thing. but they'll think you're mean, an elitist, or some kind of gatekeeper, because their laziness wasn't gratified for free. it's not your problem.
for me, its when the instruction manual talks about the game director and makers

>>12258247Were 90s gaming ads too intense for anyone else as a kid? I feel like this stuff fucked me up. People mock boomers for clutching pearls about this but it really did fuck me up.
>>12262474>Were 90s gaming ads too intense for anyone else as a kidEh.I wish the Play It Loud style of commercial just went on forever.
>>12258324I was just thinking about this. I thought that they weren't trying to market the game towards kids but that because games were seen as a childish entertainment the soccer moms were mad back in the day. But then now that I see this pic I guess they had some legitimacy in being upset. I was even alive during that time but I was so young I probably forgot that the game was marketed to kids and teens/adults.
