Killer Instinct was 100% an arcade game. Mortal Kombat succeeded where KI didn't because they understood how to modify the game for home consoles and make something fun. Also the characters and balance were just better. Same with SF2. On consoles people mostly played against their friends constantly in 1v1 matches so balance and relative simplicity was key. There is a relatively limited number of people who want to spend hours and hours mastering obscure combos and shit.

Back to KI - the arcade machine was awesome and fun to play in the arcade. People who are like 22 years old now don't understand the old arcade experience, which is a fucking shame because it ruled.

>>12472261
the blood and fatalities were cool novelties but what people really loved about mortal kombat was subzero freezing people and scorpion throwing the spearhook and raiden zapping lightning.

Slippy seems to have wide (webbed) feet in his concept that's either by Miyamoto or Imamura? Yeah, I think people just misread the weird animal feet. I get why later games change the design to look more "human".

I know what you mean and I do use manual aim while dodging for most of the game but there are some specific parts where manual or auto doesn't change much and where it's just more convenient.
Switching is just a button press and again, it's not that I constantly switch, but I do make some use of auto here and there.

The final level is awesome and pulling an Earth defender bonus is epic

can people explain wtf is happening? RE has about 30 games in the franchise from the past 25 years and people are acting like they've just discovered it? holy shit I hate being old. why are new young people coming to 4chan to make these threads? I thought tiktok was for the kids.

>>12480234
New humans are born every minute and parents that grew up with things thought it would be cool to show their kids those things especially now that it's so easy to emulate anything. It's not that complex

>conflating startled with scared
why do so many horror "fans" make this mistake?
>>
>>12480234
A new RE game came out, so you get tourists who are either new to the franchise, or who haven't thought about it since the last RE game came out, wanting to talk about it. Then of course you have posting bandwagonners who see an influx of threads, and decide to throw their own on the pile 4dalulz

I can only imagine what it would have been like to go to one of these trade shows back in the day, at the peak of my interest in gaming, when it felt like something new and exciting was always coming up, knowing that you're among the first in the public to play upcoming videogames, things which the average consumer won't be able to play for months, or you might even have a chance to play something which will ultimately never be released at all (or will be released in a very different form).

Have any of you ever fell in love with a retro vg character? I can't stop thinking about her. Especially knowing how far she's come since Rondo of Blood. Sometimes I believe it's so unfair that our screens are a world apart from reality. But it is real to me. It always was.

Both Shadow the Hedgehog and Sonic 06 popularizing the "lol Sonic's shitty friends" meme has guaranteed we are never ever ever getting anymore spinoffs starring anyone but Sonic.

After the movies and Shadow Generations' good reception I don't think that's the case anymore.

>>12481595
Shadow always gets special treatment. This is nothing special. Maybe when we see an Amy or Knuckles game I'll concede.
>>
>>12481594
Which is a shame, since there is no reason each of the side characters couldn't just be treated as their own nigga, like how Yoshi, Luigi and Wario all got their own unique franchise.

>Sonic doing whatever
>Shadow being Sonic but with guns/character action game elements or maybe spiritual successor to burning rangers gameplay
>Rogue the Bat stealth-heists
>Blaze the Cat (Sonic Rush 3-featuring Silver)
>Amy gets to be the star of "Sister Sonic", which plays similar to Popful Mail and her gameplay from the Sonic Advance series
>Knuckles 3D platformer/beat em up that focuses on his strength
>Tails Adventure 2 exploration based 2D game
>Chaotix 2 that goes back and makes the concept work and throwing in some more nigs with new abilities like Ray, Bean, Bark, Honey
>Fang/Nack game that is Shadow the Hedgehog, but 2D/Gunstar Heroes-ish

>>
>>12481335
All 3 are good for different reasons. 1 is kind of a real game, you learn to abuse the power ups
2, you can crossdress, introduced jobs for making money which was fun, but also gave you the dog for 90% of the game where it gets in my way. if it was on pc i'd learn to mod to get the dog out of the game. 3 I played the least but it's fun combining spells, like kirby and the crystal shards

I've been trying to get into retro VG for a few weeks, to be able to be in touch with my ancestors of yore. But none of them hold up to modern standards. Is it just something that you had to be there at the time?
