Super scaling > Flat mode 7 looking shit.

The "my dad could beat his dad" approach to playground assertion of superiority may otherwise work, but Nintendo stopped making arcades in the 80s so in this scenario the Based Sega Dad is either beating a child or a grandpa.

They deserved it anyway.

Mode 7 always looked bad in games like Pilotwings where they literally just expect you to buy that a flat sheet of paper with flat scenery is meant to be """"pseudo-3D"""".
F-Zero looks great though because the racers and you are constantly providing a vertical element to the scene that completes it.

>>12102134
And that's pretty based.

The Genesis couldn't do justice to either, and yet, it's the best console of all time according to /vr/.

How do you avoid slowing down when you touch 1 pixel of water? I hate these special stages.
>>

That’s the Sega System.
>>
>>12102097
Wasn't this shit software rendered too?
>>
>>12102190
No the Sega cd added the hardware needed for the scaling.
>>
>>12102097
I really liked these special stages.
>>
>>12102134
That's even more based
>>
>>12102190
Iirc it's hardware based (a dedicated chip for scaling and rotation). The irony is that the Sega CD—unlike the SNES—COULD do sprite scaling as well, and yet stuff like the Sonic CD special stages come across as clunkier than say Mario Kart or F-Zero because the billboard elements still scale suddenly (and in less steps).

> it's the best console of all time according to /vr/
That would be the Saturn

>>12102152
Mode 7 looks like trash. I'm not playing a game that relies on playing on top of a piece of paper with a drawing on it. Thankfully the Sonic CD levels are optional.
>>
>>12102097
Well, the SNES could do F-Zero at 60FPS as a launch title.
So for Sega, how about you have to pay $300 for an add on for a similar effect at 20FPS?
>>
I like it. We got real 3d at home consoles eventually.
>>
>>12102162
Jump the moment you land on water. Holding up speeds up your movement in these special stages, so that can also help.
>>
>>12102097
>poor imitation of 3D
All those games are literally from 1991-1992
>>
>>12102097
This board needs to be deleted.

Imagine hating on based mode 7. I can smell the kangaroos in these threads.
>>
>>12102107
All forms of pseudo 3d suck balls
