don't forget about me bros...
Not forgotten just not retro
>>12030115>>12030108wrong one sorry
>>12030118I think the PSP isn't considered retro by this board either unfortunately. If you remember, one of the selling points of the PSP is that you could connect it to the PS3 and do shit with it, it even has the same XMB menu. It's part of the console generation after the ps2/xbox/gamecube so some pathetic janny might delete this. I think Apple allows PSP emulators so the general population considers it retro but not here... at least not yet. Give it time and it's inevitable.
>>12030108but it's right next to me.
>>12030142How's the 8shitdo Neo Geo controller?
>>12030146feels pretty good.8bitdo are hit and miss but this it's one of their good controllers.i can't say if it's faithful though, i've never held an og neogeo cd controller.
>>12030139>one of the selling points of the PSP is that you could connect it to the PS3 and do shit with itDidn't it release like 2-3 years before the PS3 did?
>>120301532005 i think. it released at the tail end of 6th gen.it had some connectivity with ps2, but ps3 was it's main thing. but even there it was kinda disappointing.i saw this video some time ago, very informative.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=92NewcbaSnE
>>12030139Psp should be. It was competing against the ds
>>12030115It plays PSX games. Its retro.
>>12030187This. The PS5 is also retro for the same reason.
>>12030115>>12030118You can talk about these in the chinkheld advertisement general
>>12030152>theirThey got the molds from SNK to make it. Hard to fuck things up when you just need to copy.
>>12030108I got chu, famalam!
>>12030187Wii U plays PS1 games (some pretty well too), is it also retro?
>games that released in 2005 are retro>but the handheld that released in 2005 during this retro era is not
>the emulation is now good enough to run patapon on my pc>the input lag is unbearablesadfrog.png
>have 3 psps and a stack of games>don't remember having bought or played any of them
>>12030459Are you posting from 2006?
>>12030468why, were you born that year? Because neither AMD athlon I had back then nor core 2 duo my parents bought me next could emulate psp.
>>12030182which is also not retro einstein
>>12030118Not released in 2001
it's pronounced piss puh
>>12030189The same exact reason we have /hhg/, those remake discussions, or even the Virtual Boy on Nintendo Switch Online thread too.If you can discuss that bullshit, why can't we talk about the PSP or NDS, for that matter?PSP plays PS one and PC Engine games, officially, not like those android chinkhelds and yet they occupy /vr/ with its own general.tl;drYou are stupid.
>>12030423>>12030434see >>12030632
I literally forgot about my PSP and I think someone stole it because I couldn't find it when I moved out of my old apartment where I'd have people coming over constantly.
>>12030108the first final fantasy dissidia was so good, i don't know why they abandoned itit was like kingdom hearts but without the disneyi loved seeing characters from different games interact
>>12030632>>12030635see >>12015469
>>12030632The PS5 also plays PS1 games, officially. Therefore it's a retro console.
>>12030118The d-pad and "stick" on this thing were horrible.
>>12030198Then use that dedicated general.
>>12030660You should have no problem if you post a photo of Legend of Dragoon running on PS5 if you are going to talk about the game. Same with Nintendo Switch Online or Xbox Backwards compatible library.We had a Halo MCC thread few days ago and right now we have a Nintendo Switch Online thread too: >>12020830
>>12030649They thought>We can do IT better than NomuraThen fucked around with the arcade release via different producers and it wasn't as big of a hit as they expected. They had so many new, good series lined up for them on handheld games and dropped the ball.
>>12030118Still not retro
>>12030108Is it true that this is really shit?
>>12030821Yeah, was pretty excited when it was announced, upon playing it it was really ugly, with an overly cartoony art style and much more obnoxious humour. They filled it with minigames as well. They didn't need to change the original so much, if they wanted to just include some new levels and a better combat system they could have, but they made everything else really unappealing as well.
>>12030108I haven't, I still use mine to play psp and ps1 games. Playing fft on psp with aspect ratio and speed patches again.
>still up so we unironically have no janny right now huh
>>12030108Not retro (yet) but I won't. I'm still waiting for Vanillaware to port the complete version of Muramasa the Demon Blade to systems most people would play.It'd be a shame if it remained stuck on the Vita forever.>>12030118I'm neither forgetting the PSP as long as Final Fantasy Type-0 and Parasite Eve The 3rd Birthday exist.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jaaHaHUjvwg
>>12030768>arcade releasethat was a bad idea, it wasn't the right kind of product.even though the story wasn't deep, i liked it. its not the kind of thing that you can enjoy at the arcade. its a huge wasted opportunity imo. having all the characters from all the games interact could've lead to so much more.
>>12030139The PSP was just a portable PS2. Retro in my eyes.
>>12031003I also enjoyed Wild Arms XF. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KwhFKMkiQoI
>>12030462Bro your god of wars, your FF 3 and 4 remakes, your silent hills, your Personas, your Jeanne D Arc, your Fate Extra, your Patapons, your Sting game, etc.
>>12030821It's not really shit. While it is the inferior version of the first MediEvil (like >>12030889 says, a lot of obnoxious, cartoony humour instead of the original sligthly dark atmosphere), it's a perfectly mediocre game.
>>12030986or they're discussing if the PSP is considered retro. It's basically a portable emulator machine
>>12030108I love my PSP and PSP2 like you wouldn't believe.Vita's input lag in PSP and PS1 games aside.
>>12030108Playing portable 3rd on our vitas rn. Currently getting bodied by naked event zinogre
>>12030462It was really a flyover era. People bought them because they existed and they were new, but there wasn't a single memorable game. It was mobile gaming on your phone before phones.
>>12030420This well and truly felt like the era of games no one played.
>>12031346The PSP was nothing but mediocre ports and sequels/prequels
>>12030108are psps retro?
>>12032694based little machine though, really cool just got a couple for five euro each and they are neat
>>12032623>It was mobile gaming on your phone before phones.that's what neat about them, they have a dpad and an analogue stick mobile gaming sucks ass
It's weird how the UMD movie format went nowhere and was ultimately unsuccessful, now young people watch everything on their phones in portrait mode with footage of Minecraft above and below the video and with AI subtitles.
>>12032712>UMD movie format went nowherebecause immediately after that you could get sd cards with more storage capacity and a better form factor?
>>12032712UMD sucked, the quality was bad, it was noisy and the load times were shit.
This is why rule change was a mistake. Kids can't behave.
>>12032804are psps retro or not though? Just want to know?
>>12032749Optical media at all on a handheld was cool
>>12032873The OP is about the fucking Vita. Also no, PSP isn't retro either.
>>12030108>>12030118I would love to forget about any device in which there is permanently embedded a d-pad that has a gap in its center.
>>12032873Read the rules in the sticky thread. That post says PSP is not allowed here. In practice it seems we can talk about playing old games on not-so-old devices, so probably you can talk here about playing NES games on your PSP (assuming one can find an emulator for that), and ports of old games (such as PS2 games or whatever) to the PSP could also be talked about to some extent. But basically the answer is no.
>>12032901That's fine then, sorted.
>>12032875The only thing cool about the PSP was hacking it and loading it up with games from other consoles since its library sucked, but that's no longer necessary today since chinkhelds do emulation better
>>12032901No, in practice there's basically no moderation at all on 4chan currently aside from bare minimum to comply with US law.
>>12032954Hm well yeah I was talking about how I understood it to be before the recent site-hacking debacle - I don't know how much of what I said there is still true. Probably some of it though? Oh well.
>>12032665:(
>>12032665True. But nothing is preventing anyone from playing the games they've missed. More people just need to find out they exist.>>12031003I also recommend the Monster Hunter PSP games.
