Can anyone give a definitive answer as to why the Japanese have the rightmost face button as Confirm/OK and the bottommost button as Cancel/Back while it is the opposite for Americans?I get the whole O is yes and X is no thing, but even during the SNES days I remember most games having the B button be the Confirm/OK button. And, later of course, the Xbox made the OK button green and No button red like traffic lights so that further solidified it.But like what was the first game with a controller like this (4 buttons in a diamond or slanted rectangular shape) to swap the buttons between regions?
>>12469454im no expert, but i always assumed it was something about how they read from right to left, while whoever made the decision in the west simply rested their thumb on the bottom button and considered that the default action/confirm button.
>>12469835X was confirm on ps1 and circle was back. This was late 90s. I can’t forget because on the metal gear solid demo it was the other way around. I used to get those demo discs from Sony in the post
>>12476383Triangle was back. Think about it you’ll remember
>>12476401This. I always thought of it as an eject from whatever menu you were in, like an escape button. Maybe some used O, but everything I can think of used triangle.
>>12469690>Make start a triangle for some reason.It was to mimic the "play" button from music players.

Will the 80% build ever get released?
"Hey, we wanna keep the gameplay faithful, so you know what was REALLY fun during the original game, having the course drag your car along to where IT thinks you should be in our fully 3D game instead of coming up with a physics model like we were willing to do for Sega Rally Revo."I always do this thing where I find something I've never heard of, think it's cool as hell, get far enough in it to realize that it's not good, then have too much sunk cost fallacy to give it up.
>>12476259I don't like how all the faster cars feel like they're completely uncontrollable compared to the base cars. Also Jennifer's challenges suck major dick.
>>12476045agreed, really underrated
>>12476259>>12476434The slipstream makes the slow cars fast and the fast cars even faster which adds to the challenge of dodging and weaving
Fucking Special Request 3 Tulip Garden is why I hate this game's handling>first "keep your speed up" challenge is so simple that there's no real way to "do it better" you just need a faster car, but the second challenge is so technical that if you go with a car any faster than the slowest then you will always be dragged towards the edge of the curve for no good reason and be forced to slow down by the grass
>>12476045Even on a controller the vibration is tuned to make it feel like you're feeling the vibrations as you go across bumps, and I like how the wheel trails on the track actually effect your handling slightly.
Ys or Dragon Quest?Which one is better to get into?
>>12476796RtwP is the only non-slop genre of RPG's
>>12476734Chads don't fight against one another.
Dragon Quest is the game that built the JRPG mould, along with Ultima Exodus's Famicom port. Pretty much DQ nails having an interconnected overworld you can navigate better as your character grows, and DQ2 makes that character into several characters, giving us the basic jrpg party. Both don't feel as archaic as they look and can be enjoyed today provided you're not expecting modern conveniences. Ys wanted to make the rpg simpler and arcadier to the layman while giving them great presentation/music throughout. Bump combat is fun and the only issue is level scaling - you need to hit certain thresholds or certain bosses are never losing hp before you die. To be fair, Ys 1 is a lot like DQ1 - far shorter and a taster of the main course that is 2, but the first third of a whole the longer second games complete.
>>12476734>i want to play a JRPG. should i play a very good JRPG, or a very good game that is NOT a JRPG?anon, I...
>>12476734try Dragon Quest, or Mother
Is it better than Pokémon?
>>12467481Short answer: No
you can fart on your enemies in this game so it has that at least
>>12471427isn't this the easiest version of MR?you don't even have to insert random CDs to generate monsters. just enter in letters.
>>12468629>the gold standard for raising simsthat was the The Sims.in terms of popularity, i think the Cat and Doge raising sim for PC probably sold for higher numbers.
thy're not comparable, pokemon is a straight RPG and monster rancher is a spreadsheet game like princess maker with a battle system added in.
>revolutionizes first person shooters
>>12475342Yes, native goldeneye is SIGNIFICANTLY harder than emulated goldeneye. Not just because of the lowered FPS but the fact that enemies are borderline invisible and blend into the background after certain distances. Aztec feels near impossible, and the target times feel frustratingly hard to pull off as you slam your body into the sides of doors and get stunlocked by KF7 fire
>>12475018A prestige video game experience is the Nintendo difference, my sega fanboy.
>>12475432Holy shit!!!
>>12476945I find that most people who bitch about the controls have just never tried using alternate control schemes. Using Solitaire basically fixes all the things people bitch about, other than it feeling "wrong" because it's a southpaw setup. It should have been the default scheme instead of Honey. Running diagonally using two C-buttons boosts your speed by about 40%, which makes earning cheats mich easier. It also lets you fly circles around those who don't know any better in multiplayer. I'm not even some meta/speedrunner fag, it's just stuff I noticed from playing the game a fuckton as a teenager.
speedtranny garbage no better than any other rareslop. go back to sucking off karl jobst.

This characterization doesn't work any more because people conflate being a shitter and aggressively attacking people who aren't shit with "being chill", when it's the exact opposite

#1: For Dead Eyes Only (1997)>>12447361When last we left our heroes, Lo Wang was trapped under a mountain and Dr Morgan was breaking the fourth wall. Can they persevere?Only one way to find out!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YF7jvH7ASZE

>Seven chapters in>nothing but backstory
>>12476759tbf the previous book left all this as one big mystery, and the demon stuff has certainly escalated matters, so it's raising the stakes somewhat naturally.That said, we really do need to get back to the plot.
The E-reader hack is Mario 3's definive edition
>>12476863>hackIt's the official Virtual Console romdump. But agreed, the e-reader levels are better than you'd expect.
Back when ports had some effort placed on them.I love how the cape and various SMW enemies make an appearance.
>>12476863The e-Reader levels felt like they were from a romhack, not sure why.
Was this the first modern survival horror game?
>>12474373Alone in the dark is not modern and the other games were point & click, not survival horror.
>>12474362Define modern. If you mean modern as in today, then no, that would be Resident Evil 4.
>>12475186>Resident Evil 4>survival horrorPick one.
>>12475186i think Amnesia PT and Outlast are the titles that matter most for modern horror. RE4's descendants are more enemy design driven in stuff like Uncharted, Gears of War
>>12474932Alone in the dark trilooger here, completed these games an embarrassingly amount of times, to a point i can replay them in my head...Not really? RE is far to action-y (even though you can just sprint past everything).However, the OG AITD had a fair amount of combat as well,I think it's more in line with Alone in The Dark 3. Just with less scenario variety and weird shit.Less scary as well, because you never feel truly alone. If you turn off AITD 3 music and leave the stings and sound FX on, it's a genuinely frightening game. Really. I know the graphics are shit, but if you get into it and let your imagination take over, it's wonderful.Whereas RE, is simply... it's RE. There's always people around and scenarios, while cramped, feel somewhat familiar.Silent Hill is much better at this. (At what RE tried to be). Except maybe it gives the player way too much ammo
The game that ended the DOOM era of First-Person Shooters.
>>12475658>nobody cares about Half-Dead aside from Source nerds. not even ValveSimply not true. Every shooter of the 2000s copied its formula. The entire decade was influenced by Half-Life.
