Why didn't consoles start coming with S-Video or Component cables by the 4th/5th gen or even the 6th gen? The picture quality is so much better than Composite it's not even funny and you'd think by the 5th gen or especially 6th gen they'd be more concerned with the way the graphical quality was perceived on a first impression, and with Composite you're just seeing blurry bullshit especially on the PS2.

>>12245301For a digital format to be "good" it has to transmit clock data with the audio frames. It's why they left the clock off consumer digital formats - makes it harder to get a perfect copy of the signal.I've noticed these activity stimulator comments of yours, they're always content-free. Are just sageing the thread and bumping /hhg/ to sell more useless e-waste?
>>12244284>copedy cope projectlol. Fuck off kid.
>>12245402How's that analingus taste
>>12242062Because of what TV's commonly had at the time. it's a very easy answer. Same reason the NES was in mono, stereo wasn't common yet in household TV shit.
Are these black spots disc rot? From a Crash 3 CD I burnt like 12 years ago
>>12243049I've never seen it myself outside of people leaving in the sun or soaked in water.But then that would just be typical damage from sun that anything made of plastic can take and water damage.

Been playing this game lately, I'm very surprised by it in general:Not only it looks very good for a GBC game (the animations are stellar), but it also plays very well, the cinematic 2D-platformer gameplay suits this franchise very well.I played a bit of the GBA games (The Prophecy and Legend), they seem to be fine games too.
>>12245347Yes

>>12245347Yes except for Legend

Are CRT shaders a meme or do they actually improve retro games that were made with CRTs in mind?
>>12244324>turn one of your basement rooms into a game centerWhich will get flooded eventually because America.
wonder how much of this is bias from childhood. I grew up with GBA and DS (both having unblurred, sharp pixel art) and the crt look has always seemed too fuzzy for me while raw pixels look fine
>>12245082it is just bias. There is no right way no matter what anyone tells you. Just go with your personal preference and don't worry about it aligning with random people online.
>>12244403how presumptuous
>>12219190Yes but only from a latency perspective, in all other aspects they are inferior but this however is extremely important in any action or platformer game.CRT's match the game resolution for anything 480 and below but somehow make it look much lower res, shittier and they blur everything (probably has to do with the way the e-beam interacts with the phosphorous or reactive layer on the glass). You can see it in your own image. Then there is composite vs. rgb/component etc. and what your specific TV will take, emulating gives you the best possible picture quality and bypasses things like what outputs the console had and needing to do things like RGB mod, etc.
Is there a reason to still play the original when we have REmake?
>>12243098yeah, she still looks beautiful
>>12244812Since the hack, the board has been filled with brown zoomers who hate the subject theme of the board and will only play 6th gen crap
>>12244759I suppose so. At any rate you should definitely play both at least once. Try to play the original release version of the 90's RE1 though if you can. The later revisions of the PS1 game had a different soundtrack that is definitely worse. It's unfortunately the only version available on the Playstation stores now.Has anyone here played the PC GOG version? Which soundtrack does it have?
>>12242961>It's a better experience anyway to play the remake after beating the original. They change many things around to mess with the player if you are too familiar with the originalThis, the remake isn't just a remake, it's a response to the original. The remake assumes you know the mansion layout and puzzle logic and it plays off those preconceived notions. The changes are great, but they work better as a subversion of expectations. Plus you can beat the original in just a couple of days, so just do it.
Yes it's called not caring
Check out my pokemon team bros
>>12245224Kind of my point, as you get older your imagination isn't filling in as many of the details, but starting at the very beginning with Oak's speech about Pokemon, the lore in the Pokedex entries, the second city seeing a Machop "building" as part of a construction crew, third city there's even a museum of Pokemon...Even though it's not an overt part of the story, if you actually spent time in Gen 1 there was plenty of detail to get lost into as a kid.
>>12245224retard
>>12245372>your imaginationso the world building isn't there, you have to imagine it for yourself
>>12245406You mean besides literally all of the other things I said? Or do you mean including all of the other things I said?I actually don't care because the other anon is apparently right.
No thanks I prefer Bakumon
Why don't they make FMV games anymore?
While we are at it, list decent enough FMV /vr/ games, this is what I got:The Beast WithinUnder a Killing MoonThe Pandora DirectiveMystRiven
>>12245240add Phantasmagoria to the list.
>>12241236they do, but they're focused on dating sim types instead of horror. There's a couple drama and suspenful ones that aren't dating sims but they lack the cool UI like the one in your image and it doesn't match the production values like the gore effects of Phantasmagoria.
>>12245195The Bluth games are pretty intuitive when you have the light up sections of the screen to indicate what to press. Then it just becomes proto-QTE/DDR. Playing something like Brain Dead 13 on the other hand is ball busting.
They do, they're just indie games that nobody really cares about.
>Konamis classic 1981 shooter>sets the rules for classic side scrolling shmups that everybody copied>never mentioned everhuh? this game should stand among the legends of gaming.pay your respects here.

Honest thoughts on square’s Mario OCs?
>>12245215i could see it being cool if it happened earlier in the story, but by that point he couldn't do much anyway other than maybe invade the factory and try and take it for his own. which would be cool, but also just help the rest of the party in getting to smithy and not do much for himself in the grand scheme so it would mostly seem forced imo. plus we'd never get to learn of bowser's literary prowess.
>>12245223Well I think the reason those OC's get made is because Nintendo is very restrictive on what can be done with their characters.
>>12245243You have a point. The Bomberman GB designer complained about the Wario Blast process.>>12245225This is giving me an idea for a "Bowser Betrayal" ROM hack. Montro Town might be a good place so he can regroup with Jagger and the Goomba.
>>12236347I always saw his sprite like this. The 3D render always confused me because I wondered where his mustache and overall elf-like appearance went
Honestly my dear, I don't give a damn.

For me, it's Mickey's Space Adventure.

The Samsung Game Boy System lacked the FM sound ASIC chip, so the console had to offload audio processing to the video chip’s VRAM. This caused massive bus contention whenever you tried to launch sega card apps, forcing the Space Harrier UEFI to underclock itself just to prevent the system from overheating. That's why card apps flicker so much on the Game Boy because the sound channels are fighting for bandwidth with the sprite layer.
For me, it's 스트리트 마스터
Just beat the first game on the Sega Master System . Great RPG that still holds up well and is easily as good as Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest on the NES. I've already played through the 2nd game should I just skip 3 and go straight to playing the 4th though? I've heard 3 was made by a different team and isn't a good as the others It was
PS3 has the most annoying and insane battle intro song of any jrpg I've played.
>>12241758I've heard the Switch version has an automap feature,that's definitely a nice addition. I had to break out some graph paper and draw maps when I played. The dungeons were still way more manageable than the ones in the Phantasy Star 2
>>122364753 is the best one for true gamers.
>>12241807I'll have to check it out.
Anyone else know where to find the rest? I started downloading but was interrupted.
