>>12760791Doesn't always execute things the best but man I don't think anybody has a genuine love for making games more than Kojima. He just combines his autistic obsession with games with his autistic obsession with movies and makes something that isn't for everyone, but for the ones who do enjoy it, his game are really magical.

You already made this thread recently. Also more than half of those are non-retro.
I've been working through Pool of Radiance, and also playing Iridis Alpha.8-bit home computers are peak gaming. Just limited enough to force developers to be skilled at working with certain constraints.

half the old games from the win95/98 era I want to play run fine with some tweaking but the mouse is unbearably laggy and unfixable
>>12761163you can increase mouse sensitivity in most games' config files somewhere. or change your OS' mouse settings.for win95, if there's a DOS version, the DOS version is usually less buggy and should work in DOSBox(the one original ones, not "Staging" bloat). you can also increase mouse sensitivity in DOSBox.
4chan what is the best retro console out there that holds up today?
>>12745630If backwards compatibility counts:Console: PS2Handheld: GBAIf backwards compatibility doesn't count:Console: PS1Handheld: Game Boy
>>12757679Nah, it was the best generation IMO, 2d beats 3d, and the 4th gen was the peak of 2d, 8bit games were too clunky, the 6th gen was also the polished version of the fifth gen, no hate against the 3rd gen or 5th gen, it's a matter of hardware limitation
>>12753346>movie gamesRetard. PS2 has more experimental gameplay-focused exclusives than whatever games have made you asshurt.
>>12745753>PC because it has to rely on consoles to have games worth mentioningI see.
Fuck it, I'm going with Amiga CD32.

Favorite Pokemon thread. Post favorites
>>12758895I prefer Bidoof. I always glanced over the first route rodents until I gave the muffin beaver a chance. Unaware is such a nice ability imo.
>>12758895The phonetics of "zogzagoon" and "zangoose" being extremely similar but totally unrelated always triggered my tism for years. As well as Linoone and Zangoose being semi counterparts in being based on coveragent evolutionary similar animals presented with long claws and grumpy faces but being totally unrelated. It took me a while to be able to accept things like that in Pokemon because even Gen1 mostly tried to keep everything fictionally gimmicky, but by Gen2 they do shit like give us Heracross who has nothing to do with Pinsire despite giving Scyther an evolution who looks less like Scyther than Heracross does Pinser, and there's also a Ladybug who oddly looks like he came from the same early design pool as Scizor

I miss the days when Sonic canon was a wild ewst where the writer hired could just do whatever they felt like.
Why does this have such a serious cult around it? Is it just mental illness?
>>12760473>What Super Metroid does well is well known.This is what makes the entire thread an obvious and dishonest grift copying a format of critique from other games. Even if someone personally doesn't care for SM, the game's unique merits are very clear and explainable, and there isn't any other game of this type that has your abilities all physically synergize and work with the overall structure of the game in the same way. There's no 'mystery' as to why it's loved, the fanbase is clearly able to point to why it's a classic with little ambiguity.>>12759083>>12760439Check out SotN if you want, it's not a huge investment, but I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if you react to it how out basically expect to. It pretty much feels like a game designed like it was conceived by a 'that kid' who wanted to put whatever random cool idea he thought up into it, and did exactly that and shoved it in however without bothering to think that much about creating a cohesive game experience. SM in contrast is just so obviously the product of professional design requiring discipline that an armchair director wouldn't be capable of.
>>12760473Thank you. God.
>>12761601>It pretty much feels like a game designed like it was conceived by a 'that kid' who wanted to put whatever random cool idea he thought up into it, and did exactly that and shoved it in however without bothering to think that much about creating a cohesive game experience. I think that's very much because SoTN followed on a canceled Castlevania title and in large part was built from its leftovers (and many of Rondo's leftovers). Also that they realized they could do even more with CD format than they could with Rondo, and they went kinda nuts and in experimental directions.It's a good and fun game, but you can tell that it's messily put together. The second castle for instance feels like an idea that they came up with and started work on fairly late in development, hence why it wasn't workshopped and refined more to a better experience.It's awesome that they threw something like that in at all, and that it was even kinda hidden, but moving around the upside down castle is often kind of annoying, it feels like some spaces really weren't made with it properly in mind (which I suppose works in its own way).The GBA and DS Igavanias are (largely) much more tightened and refined takes on the SoTN formula, they dialed in the focus and showed better restraint.>SM in contrast is just so obviously the product of professional design requiring discipline that an armchair director wouldn't be capable of.True. That said, I have probably replayed SM about as much as I have SoTN.
Perfect for autists
>>12762231How would you compare the GBA ones to Super Metroid?>>12762850Funny considering autism didn't exist until Gen z, yet that's where the haterbase isZoomers just want to ape millennial nostalgia but get salty about shit from before 97 or so because they weren't born and can't pretend they remember it like they do other shit that came out when they were 1-5
Zoomers found out about Plok.
>>12762803wym? Games like Castlevania also have those.What other typical british game have world map in between levels? I can think of more Japanese ones.
>>12762810it's more in the sense that it's a super nintendo platformer so is following in Mario World's footprints (which was already inspired a lot by mario 3), so when you see a world map you assume you can select a different level or go back
>>12762787>aura farming battles in floridaI just google searched this exactly and didn't see any Plok shirts
>>12762787WTF is this shit?https://youtu.be/x9xFszULBnQ?si=U7_sM1iBCA6KXlQN
>>12763110Link to the Plok?
You know what I mean. Games that don't feel like. Like you would think by looking at them they're just some made-up joke, but no, somehow they're real.Like this N64 collectathon based on Blues Brothers 2000.
>>12743101tie-in for a movie released in 1997 and the third last game released for the system and it's surprisingly a fucking banger
>>12763024Also Lost World on GameGear, which i think was last game for it.
>>12750353Honestly looks alright.
>>12763005I always found it funny how those three games were the only ones to do that and i dont think any consoles ever used that idea again of a cross gen disc.
>>12756287>>12763049It is much worse then the footage makes it look. The controls are practically nonfunctional. Even the MSX version is at least playable, unlike this trainwreck. Don't believe me?: https://archive.org/details/msdos_Contra_1988
It really sucks to realize like 20 hours into trying to 1cc a game that you don't like it enough to keep going. I'm starting to get really tired of this game's entire concept of difficulty being "the boss gets in your face and shoots unreactable bullets at you from 10 pixels away." It's also annoying to have to constantly collect powerups to be at max power when the top half of the screen is instant death and they never come down to you. Especially considering how slow almost every single ship moves.What are you playing lately, anon?
>>12762994I really wish this game STARTED on the 2nd loop, its when it starts to feel like a proper psikyo first loop in their later games, all the initial random stages have really unique gimmicks that start to stand out, but even then most of stage 4 through 7 are just sitting around doing nothing just like the first loop, but with really short parts to instantly rob you of your run if you don't execute them perfectly. A lot of old games are just a ton of sitting around like that. But regardless, I find while its important to have a desire to clear things, you have to balance that with what you're realistically willing to do, otherwise desire turns into a curse. There's like a balance where you're pushing yourself but not too much to the point where its torture.

>>12758367You are truly a patriotic cold blooded american male.
>>12758367You're not really playing the games if you have infinite credits. You are just touring the game's graphics and sound, not engaging with the actual gameplay.
These 3 games are from 2002
>>12758803Kingdom Hearts is made exclusively for 13 year olds but that's a strength not a weakness, you can either put yourself in that mindset or you can't.
