Let's talk about the retro Harry Potter games. Did you get to play them at the time? Which one is your favorite? Do you think they managed to capture the magic of the books and movies?Did you play the console or PC versions of 1-3? They are completely different games, made by different developers. Also, did you play the handheld turn-based RPGs?
to anyone who played both the console and pc versions, which do you prefer?
Btw I find it fascinating there were like 6 different versions of most of these games where every single platform got a different one and that might have not been super rare at the time but still. It's not like they used mostly same assets or script but they made every game different from ground up.
>>12034372I remember borrowing the first game for PSX from a friend at the time.Very fun and fitting game honestly.
I get that a gba, ps1 and ps2/gc/xbox/pc will already means 3 different imaginations of the game but iirc they made pc and all the console ports different. Haven't played them tho.
Chamber of Secrets on PC was my childhood.
guys really live in apartments like this and don't see any issue
>>12031810Hey, that rhymed!>>12032241...How the fuck does a guy specifically cut his balls from that? was there something sharp he landed on?
>>12032534I don't remember exactly the details, might not have cut them totally but i remember the blood on the floor and the ambulance being called
>>12033037okay, so he cut something that *could* have been his balls
>>12033660Hey everybody anon cut his balls off!!!
favorite enemy in the series?
Does anybody even like these guys?
>>12034570t. never punched anything
>>12029852Wahh, why these guys more popular than my heccin Midkoto.
>>12034570>>12034614who would win? a super fucking fatass trained in pushing your ass out of the ring, or a super martial artist trained in fighting his own weight class?
>>12029852Arino sure does!Dhalsim used to be my favorite character when I was in high school and didn't play fighting games that often. Didn't become Chun until after I started to again in college and got /fit/ and developed and undying thing for gymbunnies.
>>12033943that's a thumb snapper iirc. learned that in high school.

Today I will remind them that Bomberman is canonically one of the enemies from Lode Runner NES who escaped and went straight.
>>12033536The Nes and GBA ones are good.
>canonically
>>12033536Try the original SG-1000. Probably the best game on the platform
>>12034872But what about Quest?
>>12034872where does 爆弾男、 the original Bomber Man, fit into this?
This is one of the most well designed, well paced, and well acted games I've ever played. If it had a better inventory system I'd say it was a 10/10. I started the series at Soul Reaver on the Dreamcast and really regret waiting so long to play this
I finally want to deep-dive into this console's library, but I'm having trouble sifting through all the ported arcade games.What are the best games that were exclusively made for the PC-Engine, including the CD-ROM2 add-on and the PC-Engine Duo?Also, I'm curious about multi-plat games where the PC-Engine port is considered the best version - later-gen ports notwithstanding
>>12033670Maybe you’ll get results with only “Bazaru”.
>>12033670>>Faussete AmourThis one kinda sucks. Seems promising but it's not good.
>>12015719OP here. Thanks for the rec, this game is sick. I liked it so much that I also played the PS1 version, which adds an extra stage at the end. Much better final stage in my opinion. However, for some reason, the PS1 version's stage design seems to be lacking a few of the obstacles that are present in the PCE version. Wonder what that's about.
>>12035163Mike Matei owns a legitimate copy of this game.
>have this game as a kid>like it a lot>years later find out through the internet that everyone hates itHas something like this happened to you guys
>>12032813>>12032810How the fuck did you post two identical posts within 14 seconds of each other?
I thought people were really fucking mean and unlikeable when it came to this title. I personally loved it, but the negative attention really crushed my spirits.
it wasn't until i was an adult that i learned that people seem to hate quest 64.even outside of videogames, xanadu is my second favorite movie ever, and when i looked it up on imdb it averages at 3/10. fucking crazy, man.
>>12032215Im the only person who has played this game religiously as a kid and im pretty sure it is considered to be horrible.
>>12035158Hated by who? People who treat videogames as if they always had to be Youtuber critics?It's an inoffensive western kusoge. It's not good but it has soul, similar to games like Stimpy's Invention, Virgin's Aladdin and Cool Spot.
>new meme organically forms and a few anons have some fun>Australia-kun has to try ONCE AGAIN for the 100000th time to try and make his single digit IQ memes finally catch on>board ends up being spammed by him as usualHe's like one of those kids that wanted to be funny at all costs and everyone hated.
>PC Engine / TurboGrafx-16 (+ add-on)>Mega Drive / Genesis (+ add-on)>Super Famicom / Super NESWhich one is your favorite? Rank their libraries.
>>12032503>She's next to a bunch of Puyo characters so she is probably from there.Yeah, good point.
PCE > MD >SuFami.EOPs need not apply, thinking you can give an opinion on the PCE's library because you've played a couple of shmups and Bonk is like saying the PS2 is crap because you only owned a copy of Imagine Babies.
>>12032258>>12032970Puyo Puyo.
>>12029682>Wild GunsNice.
>>12032996What's your top 10 PCE games that aren't shmups then?In PCE threads, it's always Rondo of Blood.I guess you will list stuff like Far East of Eden and Ys?
ITT: 10/10 level design only
boat go boooooooom
Does any other metroidvania map compare to super metroid's map? Basically guides you on a linear path while making you feel like you're freely exploring.
>>12034369>swinming level>platforming levelNo thanks. Blood's first episode is flawless though.
>>12034463I'm gonna get reamed for this but some of the environments and level design in Metroid Prime were absolutely stunning.I agree with you on Super Metroid. It has a flow that guides you even when you might be slightly lost at times. Very well thought out
>>12035042>flawless>with all those hitscannersI like it too but come on

Trinitron wins
Bedside Trinitron. It's way too big (27") but it was free. Sometimes I want to play vidya but can't be bothered to go to my office.
>>12035134are you on original hardware or emulating
>>12035141Orig
Has anyone here actually finished a Hard KMS run? I just recently started mine again after abandoning it for a long time and I can't even get past the second wave of the Flying Pyramid. Anyone have any advice? Pic related is my move layout.
Somebody here's played this game. They must have.
Why? Just WHY?
>>12035049It's not only that, but the fact that what was an open platform, people decided they rather have condensed down and squeezed through one or two specific storefronts, complete with whatever corporate washing that may occur in the process. PC gaming hasn't gotten more popular because people are suddenly seeing the light of what it can do with games, it's because it's become extremely sanitized and a console like(or even closer to a smartphone) type experience that no longer scares away people.
Someone drank too much and decided that this is a good way to distract people from worse thing that nintendo is doing.
They could have at least colorized the games.
>>12035015Not even close, Nintendo is by far the worst
>>12035015>Sony shitting out diversity diarrhea and censoring gamesNintendo is no different
Why do brits like this so much?
>>12032932>it came with a thick ringbound manual on coding that was brilliantly written. Clive Sinclair was fucking legend.https://worldofspectrum.org/ZXBasicManual/Thus were many of the coders who went on to write games to this day made.
It was the platform that brought everyone's favorite Willyvania clone..
>>12031079>The games were affordable tooMore like free lmao
>>12032742See I think that was my thread, except I'm from NJ and it was in December 2019. Honestly the Speccy is ass in a lot of ways, but it has lots of interesting titles if you can look past the inherent ugliness of its color palette. Hell I still have the list of Spectrum titles (with some updates from the recent homebrew scene) even if I don't have the screenshots anymore.
