cool retro characters trapped in mediocre/shit retro gamesEarthworm Jim isn't bad per day but it certainly isn't very enticing either
>>12683627The cartoon? Yes
>>12683636The game and the cartoon. And the toys, those are nice too. Maybe the comic too, haven't read it.
>>12683260the first two games are still amazing, very definition of timeless art
Earthworm Jim is pretty terrible, I agree. Funny, you see all these remasters and reboots and EWJ could definitely use one and yet not a peep
Hate how easily Poobear coasted through the first SNES game.
Remember when games were built entirely around some tech gimmick?What are the best?>Mercenaries - everything can be destroyed in an open world>Red Faction - environment can be broken apart and destroyed>Half-Life 2 - realistic physics system and a gun designed to turn every object into a projectile
>>12682815This game has one of the least appealing covers of all time. It was on deep discount at every Gamestop back in the day.
>>12682782Gimmick = soul. Games died the moment developers quit focusing on gimmicks.
>>12682782Mercenaries was legit a lot of fucking fun, it’s like GTA where you get rewarded for destruction
>>12682782Pretty much the entire library of the Wii.
>>12683856Not retro.
I just realized today that I didn't have my DualSense on my MiSTer set to poll at 1000Hz and I was playing with an additional 5ms of input latency and higher variance this whole fucking time.the fast usb polling script DOES NOT permanently apply 1000Hz polling, you have to manually add a line on the u_boot.txt file to tell MiSTer to always have 1000Hz polling active(also it should go without saying, but make sure you're using the 'low lag' v-sync option in the ini file)
>dualsense kwab
You guys are babies. I used to beat hardcore games to submission 15 years ago on shoddy emulators of the age with tons of latency, but the moment you guys get an extra 1ms of latency you have the perfect excuse to not try anymore.
>>12682159That’s gay. I just run Project 64 or whatever on my computer.
>>12683606>>12683630Based real emulator Chads, the novelty of playing console games in your pc was enough for us back in the day, this generation of emutards obsessed with shit they don't even notice are huge faggots
I use a wii classic controller connected through bluetooth on mine
Would you have bought it?
>>12683648They think that since cds have 700mb of capacity all games utilize the whole 700mbs for some reason. I've seen some that are less than 100mb.
>>12683659Nigger have you seen how much a new Playstation controller costs?
>>12683805There are tons of chinkman controllers that are high qualityI won't say brand names or products, but with as little as $15 you have much better choices.Even in shitholes like brazil, you can absolutely get a DS3/DS2 high quality clone for about $12, if you know which one to get. Really, that's no excuse, come on...
>>12683810Nigger that controller you posted is from 15 years ago before all that shit you mentioned existed
>>12682605It depends on the price. It would have been a neat gift for kids, a high quality plug and play with (comparatively) new games.
>3x speed during battle>Infinite HP and Limit Break spam in every fight>Turn off random battles in the overworldDid I actually miss out on anything? Like really? Honestly?
>>12683558What is 'class' about small tits?
>>12683604You can't spell sophistitcated without tit
>>12683554It's quick, smooth and satisfying. Combat choices affect the outcome details(eg how fast the battle ends, how much health you have left) without being try-hard and annoying, which is exactly what I'm looking for from a casual Final Fantasy game. It's very fun to play.
>>12683703>Combat choices affect the outcome details(eg how fast the battle ends, how much health you have left)Kek
>>12683790When I want to play a hard game I play a hard gameWhen I want a great story I read a book.Wheh I want an easy casual RPG I play Final Fantasy.And because I have self-awareness I can describe it.
Why is it that Third Strike attracts the most posers and frauds and non-players?
>>12681979>non-players>needs precise timings for everythingYeah right..... non players.
>>12682263This
>>12681979
>le sigh.... modern fighting games are too easy and not like +R/turd strike>n-no I don't have any tourney or evo wins why do you ask
>>12683816>no opinions allowed unless you are a championyou're retardedmeanwhile I have won sf6 tournaments and I can tell you definitively that it's easier than 3rd Strike
I like to replay Link's Awakening every July. It's something I do every summer. This and FF6 are the two games that I played a lot of in the summer as a kid.Anyone else have a specific game that you like to play during a certain time of year because of personal nostalgia?
>>12681651Back when I got it, I must have played FF7 4 times in the span of 2 years.Nowadays, there's only a handful of games I replay every 5 years or so for nostalgia and they're light on story : Dune 2 PC (though my last last playthrough was on Megadrive when an anon on /vr/ shilled it), HoMM2 and Price of Loyalty campaigns, Settlers 2 and Might&Magic 3 to 5.
>>12681512That's cool anon. I think it's good for the soul to have some games you replay once in a while as a ritual.
>>12681512How do u feel about the switch remaster? I picked up a copy of it since I never actually played the OG back in the day for some reason. Played the hell out of alttp tho and usually beat that once every 2 years or so.
>>12683812Not OP, but I really like the new art style plus being able to map items to the additional buttons. It does have a lot of framerate drops on the standard Switch though. It runs rock solid on Switch 2.
>>12681512Why would you replay a game
>>12681296Why not both?????
>>12681296GBA is way more powerful than SNES even with SuperFX 2 chip. It also had more games, and with higher quality too, gameplay wise if nothing else. Literally the only downside is screen resolution and sound quality.
>>12681296GBC had more potential because it was no longer bound by the chains of 2.6 or 3.5MHz. So GBA arguably on a hardware level but actually SNES overall because of the better resolution and more original games. GBA games are more polished though. It also has a lot of remakes/remasters, both are great systems overall.
>>12681296Pokemon alone destroys everything on the snes
>>12682164>GBA is way more powerful than SNES even with SuperFX 2 chip.it only seems that way because its driving a fraction of the resolution.If it had to drive a minimum screenrez of the SNES, that gap would evaporate.Also, the GBA had no sound system to speak of. You had to use processor power to handle audio in software, or stream the audio from data and send it as 2 channel. In the SNES, the streaming options are almost non-existant, but the entire 8-channel sound system operated independent of the cpu and is handled with no main processing cost.and what in God's name did they pick for the GBA such a garbage noisy crunchy DAC chip for, and then the nerve to re-use it in the DS?anyways, despite the impression the big N was clearly ok to let people try to infer on the SNES's coattails, the GBA really as a system is different enough to compare more to the N64 than the SNES.
Number Eight. Number Eight.
>>12682571It took me an embarrassingly long time to figure out the solution to the rat maze puzzle.
We're you able to get retro games from Japan before collector youtubers ruined the market?
>>1267789718-25 year old people aren't gen alpha, they're zoomers. Gen Alpha are people born in 2010 and later.
>>12682343>How many of them were ever genuine peoplenone of them. every single person i've ever seen on that site has been a faggot grifter
>>12682343Gamesack and Happy Console Gamer are really all i can remember that wasn't trying to be an "angry critic" or something like metaljesus who you know is running a scalper ring and artificially pumping the numbers.
>>12682594>GamesackI've only seen a couple of his videos but he seems like a genuine "retro" gamer.But holy shit, there's been a glut of new "girl gamers", none of whom could have been alive for anything other than the PS3 making "retro" videos. They're even making the same kind of "end of retro" gaming videos.
>>12682636>But holy shit, there's been a glut of new "girl gamers", none of whom could have been alive for anything other than the PS3 making "retro" videos. They're even making the same kind of "end of retro" gaming videos.It's funny to think that some of them, if not most, are daughters of the kind of late Gen X/millennial girl who mocked the type of nerdy guys who were hardcore into anime and videogames back in the 90s/early 2000s. Have to wonder if the daughters realize this, or if their mothers recognize that the stupid Japanese cartoon with the blue short-haired girl that their daughters are buying figurines from, is the same show that the fat guy they mocked 25 years ago was jerking off to back then.
Why does it filters so many people?
>>12683473Not like EOPs are any better posters doe
>>12683480We are all brothers in the fight against the bots. I'm simply trying to identify how uphill our battle is, anon.
>>12683469Too long, too linear, too outdated even when it was new... anything else?
>>12683778It's a good game but sadly this.
>>12683778>outdated sir this is the retro board
games ahead of their time >this would have been the perfect VR game
>>12683406it sure would have beenbecause it sucks shit
>the baddies aren't localized to the fistdesigners! designers! Designers!!
>>12683406I remember playing this on an Xbox demo disk and thinking it had the most realistic looking graphics I had ever seen
One of the coolest stories in a video game. Straight up ripping off manga and the matrix (which itself borrowed heavily from manga/anime from what I understand) and very cool cliche from that time period. Love it. I remember it being incredibly hard, I need to replay it since I haven’t beaten since release but I remember loving the absolute shit out of the story and using super powered arms in first person.
>>12683751The game starts off insanely difficult because they throw you to the wolves with none of your powers. Once you at least get the ability to block bullets then it really picks up. By the end you're so strong the final boss and gauntlet feel like a well deserved victory lap, at least for me that's how it went. Awesome game, kinda bad first impression starting you off so weak, but sticking with it is worth it.

>>12681790candyass roodypoo lmao
>>12681695wonder if they'd do ff7 at some point?
>>12683356They'll do Final Fantasy I or IV first if they decide to touch a mainline FF at all
>>12683356>>12683770I can see them doing a mini-games side-corner, and spend time playing the Gold Saucer games.
Do people really like this over Ocarina of Time, do they really want it to be remade after Oot? Not even Aonuma likes this game, I don't see it happening. They would sooner do Wind Waker afterwards.
>>12683756I'll agree it seems to share some continuity. I don't agree that makes it a "direct sequel" like you're saying.
>>12683759I don’t understand the difference. If Wind Waker takes place in the same Hyrule (albeit one that’s been buried beneath the sea) as Ocarina of Time, then yeah, I think it’s fair to refer to it as a sequel. Are you saying it can’t be a sequel since you’re not playing as that same Link?
>>12683767Wind Waker follows OoT's continuity, but not directly. A major off-screen event (Hyrule's flooding after the Hero of Time left) happens between them. WW references OoT often, but those are references—not a continuous, immediate follow-up story.Zelda 2 is.
>>12683771Well, my point was that Wind Waker is taking place in the same continuity, just much later. The Ganondorf you fight at the end is the same one that Ocarina Link fought.
>>12683784>just much laterThen it's not a direct sequel
I never cared about Retroachievements but I felt like replaying MGS for 100% just funs but I realized there lots of things I never knew in the game. even though I beat this game hundreds of times since I was a kid on PS1it's actually impressive how many secrets it has
>>12682653Moving goalposts.The amount of information divulged on 4chan is significantly less than R/A. You don't have to make an account or install surveilling software.And you choose what to say. If you wanna say nigger, sure, say nigger, tranny, kike, etc. This is not tied to any account and it'll be hard to trace back to you.I'm indeed bothered because shit is a shitty ideologue that's being pushed, warping the fundamentals and misappropriating of what retro gaming means.You people suck and can fuck off back to your fart sniffing discord rooms. Buy and ad and get the fuck out.
>>12683325meds
>>12677140RetroAchievements are awesome precisely because they are made by fans, and super-fans at that, so they're usually thoughtful and genuinely fun.
>>12677143I don't even like retroachivements and I think you're a gigantic faggot.
>>12683757Based hater, keep hating
