A new PS1 10 millions console, new long box copies of Tekken, Doom, Twisted Metal and Alien Trilogy, and a new copy of the FF7 misprint. Then I'll sell them and get as many games I want.
>>11501421NES>LoZ>CVIII>Kirby>SMB3>Tengen TetrisThis was harder than I expected. My first inclination was Genesis but I knew in heart it had to be NES. If I did go with the Genesis this would be my five:>Thunderforce IV>S3&K>Bloodlines>PSIV>Monster World IV

>>11503181It's a real console. It was the first console I got as a kid. It's retro too because it came out more than 20 years ago.
>>11503219This is some good taste.

>>11501529with no electricity?
>>11501421PlayStation:>Crash Bandicoot>Need For Speed: High Stakes>Spider-Man>Winning Eleven 2002>Yu-Gi-Oh! Forbidden MemoriesI almost went with Genesis, mainly because of Sonic, and because it also has a Spider-Man title I like, Spider-Man vs. The Kingpin, but Crash can fill the mascot platformer role pretty well too, racing and sports play a lot better on PlayStation to me, and Yu-Gi-Oh! really settled it. It was still a close call though.
>>11501451The console looks stellar to this day desu
>>11501421SNES:- A Link to the Past- Super Metroid - Super Mario RPG- Kirby Super Star- Final Fantasy IIICall me a basic bitch all you like but I can have endless hours of fun with just these 5 titles.

>>11501421I refuse to participate in shit threads like this because1. No one replies anyway, these aren't "conversation starters". It's just 99% people talking into the wind.2. I won't be arbitrarily limited to 5 games for no justifiable reason.
>>11501421SEGA Master System>Bonanza Bros.>Lucky Dime Caper starring Donald Duck>Sonic the Hedgehog 2>Spider-Man: Return of the Sinister Six>World Cup Italia '90
>>115075861. It's a thread for considering your answer, and for reading others. You don't really need to have someone reply to you with >5-star post nigga!.art to get something out of it.2. Of course you won't, it's a thought exercise.Bonus: You've just participated in it anyway.
>>11506731No sf2?
>>11508948Good game, but I chose the games on the system I already play more than any others.
>>11506895>Halo>Halo 2why both
>>11501421>If you could only have 1 retro console and 5 games for it, what would you choose?Xbox>Dead Or Alive 3>Star Wars Battlefront>Stars Wars Knights Of The Old Republic>Jet Set Radio Futurenothing fills the void of the fifth slot as far as I can think right now
>>11501421OG Xbox1. Fusion Frenzy2. Shenmue II3. ESPN NFL 2K54. Silent Hill 2: Restless Dreams5. Grand Theft Auto: Double PackThen I would set up all the emulators for the other consoles since OG Xbox is still the king in regards to /vr/ retro consoles for emulation.
>>11507586It's not because people aren't going back and forth between replies, that it means we're not engaging with one another, just sharing our thoughts with one another, either like minded people or those that disagree.
>>11501421Genesis>Shining Force>Contra: Hard Corps>Castlevania: Bloodlines>Alien Soldier>Light Crusader
>>11501421SNES with ALttP, Super Metroid, Dragon Quest 3, Donkey Kong Country, and Secret of Mana
>>11508740>. It's a thread for considering your answer,That's fucking stupid. There are far more than 5 indispensable games for my favorite systems. I will not arbitrarily limit myself to 5 of them, even in the context of just picking the "best" 5. Games are NOT SINGLE VARIABLE EQUATIONS. Get that through your head. They provide different mental/emotional states. You can't arbitrarily rank them according to a single metric and say "oh X is better than Y because I'm incapable of grasping the totality of what this experience offers me". And it's beyond foolish to say you only want to experience one or another particular emotional states for the rest of your life. That isn't how existence works.>Bonus: You've just participated in it anyway.If that was supposed to be some "epic gotcha" you failed. Yes, I participated by showing what a narrowminded non-thinking sham your system is.

>>11511472NTA but I think you're overreacting, anon. This is just a standard "If you were standed on an island and..." sort of thread, it's not uncommon to see and there's nothing wrong with it, even if there's no real back and forth, just seeing people's choices, especially less popular ones, is interesting, seeing how titles most see as mediocre or shovelware can actually mean a lot to someone out there. Also, we get some funny posts too, like this one (>>11505662).
>>11511472Holy fuck you are severely autistic

>>11513163>I'm reading every post even if I'm not replyingyeah, this.
Some nice lists itt, I've been reading them all too. Can't make my mind up between:PS2>Duelists of the roses>Gran turismo 4 (with GT force wheel)>Guitar hero 2 (with guitar)>THPS3>SW battlefront 1OR:SNES>DKC2>Super metroid>Mario all stars>Turtles in time>ALttP
Dreamcast. Arguably the most hipster-esc choice but I really don't give a fart. Grew up with it, it's still based as hell 25 years later. Anyway:>Bangai O>Sonic Adventure 2>CvS2>Cannon Spike>Code Veronicahonorable mention (if it ever gets translated):>Segagaga
