Guess I'm getting a Super Famicom. What are the best games for the system, Japan-exclusive or otherwise? I've never really dived into the SNES/SFC library beyond the major first party Nintendo games. I don't speak or read Japanese, but I am interested in learning, so feel free to recommend text-heavy RPGs and games with a decent language barrier.

If you're just looking to play the games and not also collect, evaluate the cost of whatever various chip games you might want and buy the flash cart that suits you best. I got an X5 because it was cheaper and most of the games it doesn't support are ones I either don't care about or I like and are cheap enough to warrant getting originals. There's no point in splurging on a SuperFX cart if the games you wanna play total less than 200 dollars to get off eBay or something. Flash carts also work with either console

In games with trigger-based camera controls, I always liked to just hold the stick forward and use the triggers to "steer" my character left and right by adjusting the camera. I don't know why I found this so fun.

80s was better for being a kid, 90s was better for being a teenager. It gave you the best possible perspective for appreciating the computer/technology boom and the advent of digital information. It also meant you got to do most of your growing up in a pre-9/11 world, which is probably one of the most priceless experiences of the modern age.

There's always this wierd notion that people who are older must mean we inherently liked the older way of doing things, even the worst versions of it. Even though it was the kids who grew up in the 70s and 80s that implemented all of those QoL changes that got rid of the shit we grew up with.

Ayo is that Frederick C. Krueger? That nigga has been on my mind. No cap, I been thinking about that time when I barebacked him raw in a Boca Raton Air BnB. That shit had to be the tightest, blackest, wettest boy pussy I've ever laid pipe on. I swear to God, the most heavenly high is gargling that wonderboy's nuts while going fist deep into his shitter. I had Frederick screaming into the sheets with head too ridiculous to ignore. That nigga frotted my cock until he busted on my mouth, I had to return the favor. That nigga Frederick and I been fucking non-stop ever since, but keep that shit on the DL. He does that shit for free. If you're gonna ask me how to "long" Frederick, I'll be deadass. All you gotta do is ask, be straight up, and get physical real quick. Touch his nuts, get on ya knees, talk your shit. He doesn't play around with no pansy-ass niggas either. He likes his men manly, and his dick thick. Dark skin, 6'5 is the minimum and I ain't talking about height boy. That nigga Frederick Krueger stole my heart and drank my sneed.

>What would make for a good Elm Street game?
I think you could make the concept work with a lot of different types of games. Point and click could work, an action survival horror could work, maybe a metroidvania where you collect dream abilities and fight different wacky versions of Freddy for boss fights. The important thing would be to make use of the idea of being in a dream or nightmare to showcase different settings that you wouldn't see in most games and also I think having Freddy being a constant threat or at least taunting you often throughout the game.

"Back in the day" critics would suck a thousand cocks to defend mid NES games that are unplayable today. What's your point?
>>
>>12135286
Not particularly, it's only okay. The entire game takes place in one very small area and vast majority of your time is spent doing a few extremely boring and tedious dungeons.

If Zelda series on average is like a 9/10, this is like a 6/10.

Just that the game was treated like a misunderstood gem, pretty much like Okami, when that couldn't be any further from the truth.

It shows how cookie-cutter opinions are in gaming. Someone called the Saturn a "2D powerhouse" once in a magazine. The phrase made it to its wikipedia page in the 2000s and then influencers just started repeating it non-stop.

When you look at the 2D
>fake transparency
>couldn't handle ports of late 80s Sega arcade games like Galaxy Force 2 without sacrifices
>CPS2/Neo Geo games needed special, expensive ram carts to even work and many of the RAM carts only worked with 1-2 specific games
>Metal Slug 1 couldn't keep a solid framerate even with a RAM cart
>mediocre port of Mortal Kombat Trilogy
Sure, the PlayStation ports of CPS2/NG games were lacking in comparison but at least they ran stock. The Marvel Vs games sucked on PS1 but the Street Fighter Alpha games were pretty good efforts.

Dreamcast was the first system that really held its own with 2D and it doesn't get enough credit.

Wiffing not so much

I want to get into Windows 95/98 era gaming and play stuff I missed out on as a kid. Is there a more streamlined or recommended way of doing this, or is it a case-by-case thing for each game to research and find the right fan-made solutions to get it to run? I figure it's the latter, but might as well see if there's another way.

XP doesn't run all dos games natively if they have bespoke ways of managing memory, like Ultima 7 as an example. You had to make an arcane boot disk to do that. Better to use Dosbox to play most games these days, especially Dosbox-X or Staging to get support for proper sound emulation of MT32 etc.

Just use the modern game engine that runs natively.
