Blue is better since it is way easier to get catches and evolutions once the conditions are met.
>>12514932I prefer blue, going into catch mode or Evo mode is way mere annoying in the red table
This was considered a killer app in 1995.
>>12515882I really hope you’re trolling.
Nigger App
>>12516793Toshinden was legit cool at the time though. Everyone I knew that got a Playstation at launch had it. "Some game that came later was better" is not much of an argument.
>>12515882Take a look in the mirror, pal. The term "killer app" has been around longer than you've been alive.
>>12515879playstation games with fat manuals had to be out in two-disc jewel cases, such as suikoden. it was easier to put them in a longbox, along with a map if the game had one
Why wasn't Phantasy Star as popular as Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy?
>>12516743>I don't want to admit anything bad about my preferred game>I know, I'll just say I won!Lol
>>12516749I never even said I preferred FF I, you just seem completely incapable of understanding my original post. You seem way too focused on FF I, for some reason though, did it hurt you in some way? You didn’t even mention Megami Tensei, which is more what my original post was about. This is really my final word on the matter. Go play the MD Phantasy Star titles, those games were actually mechanically interesting for their time.
>>12516762>You seem way too focused on FF IIt's a thread about why PS is less popular than DQ or FF. DUH
>>12515152Because the towns look like Fisher Price and the music in the first few games is like nails on a chalkboard
>>12516649Games shouldn't expect players to use their imagination to cope with their lack of graphics
What went wrong?
I only played Digimon Rumble Arena on the PS1 the game was better than the first Smash Bros the Digimon Anime was better than the Pokemon Anime the Pokemon Anime was just a glorified commercial
Digimon came out when the internet was still fresh. Look at a show like Digimon Tamers, how it plays with the idea of sci-fi horror (D-Reaper) and shadowy conspiracy (Hypnos). It's a product of culture, like most media. Ironically Digimon fell off in the mid 2000s, the same time that computer tech became widely available to everyone.
>>12514265They probably should've scrapped the whole digital thing, considering technology was advancing at an extraordinarily fast rate.Smoothest of brain take would be ripping off jurassic park: here's a big corpo resurrecting these dinos: Some are friendly, some aren't so.Some corpos are benevolent, others are bioterroristsEven DW3 has that vibe.I dunno, it's better than a confusing mess of digital world/real world, vaccine, data, viruses, etc. All quickly outdated
>>12516284Tamers was written by the guy who wrote the script for Lain. The Lain influences are noticeable if you pay attention.
The newest game Time Stranger is successful.
It's library is just so well rounded and diverse I can't think of any genre where the PS1 is clearly lacking unlike any other retro consoleEven stuff more closely associated with other console like Shmup for the Saturn ,well the PS1 still have a great library of shmup
>>12513036Back then the super hip nerdy smart sega guys made fun of sony and said it would go nowhereNow they all pretend they never said that
>>12515693Gee thanks Dr. Snoy!! I shall start with WII Fit errrr or whatever the soulless plebstation clone of that is right away!!!
>>12513036N64 had better first person shooters.

Was the Sega Saturn really more powerful than the PlayStation?
>>12514986Yeah but I think they used other terms like monster 2D performance or something like that.
>>12514832>Both had 2MB of main RAM and 5129 of audio RAM, the only difference is that the PSX had 1MB of Video RAM while the Saturn had 1.5, though the Saturn's It's not that easy actually PS1 Ram is unified you can use it how you wantSaturn main Ram:1 MB High Work SDRAM1 MB Low Work FPM DRAMSaturn Vram:512 KB VDP1 texture cache VRAM512 KB (2× 256 KB) VDP1 dual framebuffers512 KB VDP2 background cache VRAM
>>12514832>>12515338>5129 of audio RAMDammit, did I actually mistype it as "5129 of audio RAM"? I meant to say "512K of audio RAM"And yes, it's not a 1:1 comparison, but I don't see where people are getting this "Saturn had more memory" argument from as if the system had double the overall RAM of the PS1 or something, overall it had the same work and audio ram (though chopped up like you said) and an additional 512K of video RAM assigned to a specific task. I used to think it had more memory too until I read the specs and saw that they were similar, even if utilized differently.
>>12514023>>12514219You can really tell how refined Konami's craft was at the time, Gradius Gaiden is such a gorgeous game. The upscaled sprites in Cotton look really tacky.
>>12510337Comparing hardware capabilities is fun. If you're an autist like me.
Now, when he said this, did he mean he was fine with taking candy from a baby, or merely that he was fine with the mission being as easy as taking candy from a baby?
>>12514508Uh-oh, bot broke.
he secretly took candy from maria and really liked it, but it makes him feel guilty so he is also okay with genocide (???)
Did this Shadow game copy Star Fox 64? i found it curious how in the Shadow game there were different routes to follow in the levels leading you down different paths just like in Star Fox 64

Ya but no one built a Time Machine so why do I careWomen get angry when you mention time travel. They hate fantasizing about being 20 because they all got great jobs with the arab gypsy cartel fake white guys that hate European Americans
Robotron X. I have listened to the OST in the time between then and now though.
I remember altered beast being fun. Same with Mario vs donkey Kong. I feel less confident about madTV still being good though>>12516301You having a moment there?
in Tiger Woods for PS1 you can explode the golf cart.

BEST I EVER HADOHHHHHHHHHH
Trying something a little different today!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_XLwSv6Wfc
ENDINGS UNLOCKED: 9/20I'm gonna call it there, as I've been doing this for about 7 hours give or take. I hope everyone had fun.
However, I think it's time to figure out what I should post next Saturdayhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUh3JQ9T8WI
>Sega Power, initially known as S: The Sega Magazine, was a Future publication aimed at the Sega range of consoles, including the Master System, Mega Drive, Game Gear and later on the Mega-CD, 32X and Saturn. The magazine was later relaunched as Saturn Power when the other Sega consoles were discontinued. >After 12 issues the magazine was re-launched with its new name in readiness for the forecast boom in video games consoles. The magazine covered consoles such as the Mega Drive, Master System, Game Gear, Mega-CD, Sega 32X and the Saturn. In the spring of 1997, after 91 issues, the magazine was relaunched and renamed. >As a variation on the free tips booklet often issued by computer games magazines, Sega Power released a string of novellas based on popular computer games. Titles in this range included: Golden Axe, Road Rash, Super Monaco GP and Desert Strike.[1] These titles were written by members of the Sega Power team and combined a fictional narrative, hung loosely around the linear plot of the game, with cheats, codes and hints for gamers. Next Saturday! Be there!
>>12516646Fair enough, this does seem like the canonical ending (as does >>12516275 >>12516276 >>12516279 )This was fun, thanks OP!>>12516662... huh, mite b cool
Just found out about this game. Its unironically some of the best shit I've played. There is just something about combining tertis with like space invaders that really just gets the ole nerons firing. Anyone else find it crazy just how fun and addictive some old games are? Like why is making squares on a screen just infinitely more addicting than modern psyop titles. Its just gaming in such a pure form.
>>12516670Simple games, simple fun.There's no room on the cart for extraneous elements outside of the core game and the initial transaction is the only one. That last one is especially true. There are plenty of perfectly fine arcade-style games on mobile that are ruined by MTX.
Why did he (not) do it?
He was programmed to protect people. Wily is a person. Rock doesn't really have judgment and can't decide "killing this person to protect others is okay", so he gets stunlocked completely by "this person is dangerous and will hurt people + this person is a person too".X and Zero don't have that, and it's questionable whether any other Wily bot does either.

British games journalism thread

>>12516675Brits are used to playing muh speccy games instead of superior Japanese games. In the 80s Japanese were playing castlevania, megaman, Zelda and super Mario brothers on the famicom and the Brits were playing chuckie egg and horace goes skiing.
>>12516680>>12516684Super Play taught me about anime, no joke. Bought my first Ranma tapes on their suggestion.
Was there any reason to not include item descriptions? There were descriptions for spells, why not items?
>>12516182You could see number goes up when you selecting weapons and armor.
>>12516182The first Estpolis was a kusoge and it spoils the plot of the second one. Nintendo of Europe did the right thing by only releasing Estpolis 2 there.
>>12516248oh my nippon... if I didn't know any better, I'd say that you were Japanese!
>>12516247I meant the consumable items. I was hoarding Great Potions because I though they were healing items, but I should have been using them since they actually raise your max HP.
>>12516274That's unfortunate. The Lufia leveling system was random but made sure you ended up on the number they wanted for all stats every 16 or 17 levels iirc. The stats you got from those portions went to a separate database and really helped especially in the fight against apprentice. You could also drink one and reset the game until it gave you the big bonus.
