What games do you go back to again and again when you're feeling a little down? What /vr/ games are guaranteed to bring a smile to your face? For me it's pokemon gbc games.

Yu-Gi-Oh: The Sacred Cards

It's really easy and you get enough GP to make a deck you like quickly, with a ton of cards that are awful in the OCG/TCG being downright broken in here, it's cozy... I'll always love Hourglass of Life, Skelengel, Doron... so many cards I'd never use in a real duel are just amazing here. Also, getting a copy of Dark Magician Girl is always a highlight, I can't recommend this enough if you're a fan too.

Why was there never a proper Jurassic Park survival horror game? Dino Crisis is the closest thing, and the moral of the story is KIND OF similar but not really.

Maybe I'm just dumb, but I keep having to use a walkthrough for this game.

This is probably the most straightforward Zelda. The overworld is small and the dungeons don't really have any puzzles. You can find where you need to go and figure out what to do very quickly.

I like that it's almost an old school action RPG. You might not explore dungeons or an overworld, but traversing the map gives that effect, and you do get the option at the midway point to tackle certain levels in a different order. You have merchant gargoyles in every level to buy weapon ammunition from. You might not level up, but you do find life bottles that extend your life and you can farm for money if you need to.

Is this game worth tracking down? I started watching the anime and love it, and I've heard the game is pretty decent, but it's not exactly cheap. Not insane prices but still more than impulse-buy territory (though for once being a britbong paid off as it was released over here). I know I could just emulate it, but it'd be nice to have it on proper hardware if possible (especially as PS2 emulation still seems to be a bit of a crapshoot).

The game was enjoyable until it introduces some kind of sanity meter which slowly yet constantly goes down through the level/chapter.
Timers like this really break games for me. I just want to take my time and enjoy.
And as a based anon said: burn the iso.

I'm in a weird camp in this whole "to buy, not to buy," thing. On one hand, it's neat to own the things you like, on the other, after having a NDE... it's not the end of the world if you don't as in those last moments you realize you ain't taking that amazing vidya collection with you. Since then I've tried to sell a couple of the rare games I own and can just download and make copies of.
Basically, Matthew 6:19-21. At the end of the day, you only own what time and tragedy let you. I remember I had this old friend who had this retro gaming collection that would have made anyone here cry. He kept then safe in his own private museum... and what happened to that glorious collection? His house flooded ruining tons of retro boxes and artwork and the water got into so many of his games that there were to many to test and see if they worked.

Its for a specific kind of gamer, ones who value personality and soul over the raw moment to moment gameplay. Its pretty much identical to Chulip just condensed down a good bit, so if you've played that and liked it definitely check it out.

I really, really liked DoA4.

It was like playing Street Fighter 2 Turbo with turbo mode off. I played it on my friend's PS2 as well and saw how much faster the game was.
of course, we only had bootlegs, so that might be why my dc version was so slow. I just checked a comparison video and was surprised to see they ran at identical speeds.

Fighters Impact might be it. It's not quite setting off klaxons in my head, but the selectable fighting styles feature does sound very familiar.

Maybe the Taekwondo thing is a mixed memory drawing from Fight Fever, one of the lesser known Neo Geo fighters

Sounds similar to the original PC-98 Variable Geo games where the losing fighter is humiliated in a sexual manner. Speaking of which - Advanced V.G. 2 for PS1 comes to mind as an example of a lesser known fitghtan. Erotic content is removed in this one but pretty gals are still there and the gameplay is competent enough.

Quite possibly the best production game controller of all time. What were they thinking? Who engineered it? How did they refine it? Where will it take us? We must all consider ourselves lucky to have been blessed with this divine treasure, which reminds us of our shared human heritage. Some claim that it has the power to achieve frame-perfect input and grants substantially improved gameplay skill.

Mario honestly has decent lore. It's interesting to think that Mario is probably deceased by the time of the first Donkey Kong Country.
>>
>>11068098
Not really, other than having some common characters and themes these games are basically stand alone excluding direct sequels. The only common thing between DKC and Mario is that Cranky might be Donkey Kong from the original game and Mario might be jumpman. Any thought more than that is Zelda timeline level bullshit.
