>all the obsession with CRT tvs>meanwhile this is how a japanese play most of his gamesIt's time to grow up, guys
>>12355864>Here's a jap doing a thing>that's my personality nowYou will never be Japanese weeb faggot lol
>>12355864is'nt the retrotink get builded in japan by kazuki takahashi ? its because they cuck sheds can't hold big crt tvs
>>12355864>all the obsession with how a japanese play most of his gamesthirdies. lol.
>>12355864What's with the Japanese obsession of sitting so close to the television? I've always been annoyed how controllers on Japanese consoles are so short and you practically have to play with the system right in your lap to actually use them. I would have absolutely despised the NES if we had gotten a version similar to the original Famicom
I had a Sony Trinitron that I got as a Christmas present alongside Majora's Mask but I ended up giving it to my friends fuck up stepsister over a decade ago so her kids could watch something.
>>12355864widescreen for wide n64.poetic.
>Hmmm yes loads of latency and forced widescreen for 4:3 gamesTruly the master race. Honorary Aryans, everyone!
>>12355879They can hoard mangas.they definitely have room for a CRT TV.
>>12355896On the contrary, why do you sit so far away from it? What they do is the far more natural position, and I bet you are reflecting it as you read this by sitting right in front of your computer monitor. Not sure what the whole sitting on the floor thing is about, though.
>>12355864Emuchads with CRT filters are playing games with more soul than Japanese men with the authentic plastic.You know the only reason he's using old plastic is because the Emulation Police in Japan are hardcore and will bust his balls. Fucking lmao coomlectors.
>>12355921Only reason he is using old plastic is because it's cheap and plentiful in their country, while you on the other hand can only cope with inauthentic alternatives.
>>12355864Fuck off retard
>>12355864CRT isn’t about playing games. It’s about compliance with the Retro Movement.
>>12355864>one dude does this>that means everything else doesn't matterretard>>12355896You ever been to japan? The average space in a room is like 5'x5'
>>12355864that guy is the biggest fucking pleb honestly
>>12355864He owns multiple CRTs
>>12355864WOW this Japanese man in Japan chooses to play classics in a shitty fashion; I should copy him because I have no agency and I'm weeb.
>>12356058Basedo
>fucked aspect ratiosWhat a bunch of dip shits
>>12356058what the heck, no Sony PVM!?
>>12356058>all these 14 inches just to use fucking compositeabsolute disgusting
>>12356093HE IS PLAYING VIDEOGAMES WROOOOONG!!
>>12356094This, but unironically.
>>12355998Nta, but as long as it's the uncorrupted dump of the original ROM, it doesn't matter if the "shell" is an original cartridge (unless you care about monetary value, but that's another ballgame) or if it's inside an SD card or hard drive; the code is still inside something physical.
>>12356093Composite isn't really that bad, RF is what's the shittiest.
>>12355916I don't know, but it's the message that pops up at the start of every episode of Gintama."Be sure to sit far away from the TV and watch in a well lit room"
>>12356117RF is the soulfulest. I really play my old games that way because why stop with the CRT if I'm going for more or less how I played in the 80s?The ghosting effect makes it a more organic experience and I'm not even kidding.
>>12356125Eh, I used RF with my SNES and I think something my NES a lot in the early 90s but the second I could use composite I pretty much never went back lol. It's just such a pain in the ass to even deal with the connector and coax cable can suck my fat cock literally in the top category of worst connector of all time.
>>12356130It is true that the coaxial connectors on some TVs can be a bitch. I draw the line with the N64, but I don't even know if that can be hooked up with an RF switch. Btw, you'd assume by setup was with composite by pics alone.
>>12355921CRT filters are grotesque, more so than whatever those japs are doing.
>>12355864So? I don't give a fuck how some Japanese dumbass plays his shit.
>>12356130>coax cable can suck my fat cock literally in the top category of worst connector of all time.i really hated how many TVs had that connector in a recessed little pocket so you couldn't properly grip it when screwing it on either
>>12356136actually, there was RF adapter well into the late 90's still being sold. I have these 2, which just take the composite/sound signals and just shove them into a single cable for coaxialas you can imagine, the image is terrible, but at least it works better than the old RF console outputs
>>12356170I didn't expect that.
>>12356136Yeah the N64 shipped with composite so if you needed RF it was because you had a lower end TV but they no longer provided it.>>12356156I'm pretty sure a large portion of my finger grip strength and callus' are just my youth dealings with coaxial cables. Because of course not only was I fiddling with my own shit at home and stuff all the time but I was the resident computer and TV fixer for the entire extended family so almost always when I traveled places it was "Hey the input doesn't work on the TV for whatever yadda yadda". Even flatscreens at the beginning were pretty retarded with connections but they eventually learned and put that shit on the side. Although fancy TVs always had external boxes which are the best.
>>12356125this but unironically. for years I only have ever had the RF adapters it wasn't until like 2000 when I started using composite.now on duck station I have a mild shader that reminds me of what that RF ghosting used to look like (CRT newpixie) while I have the internal resolution upscaled 8x to over 2k for my Mac retina screen. It looks glorious
>>12355864If I show you an example of one japanese person playing a video game on a CRT will your point be invalidated and would you kindly delete your thread?
>>12356228...that looks terrible
>>12356187when I got an n64 I was like 7 so I dont remember hooking it up but I do distinctly remember having to go to meijers or Best Buy with my mom to find the adapter block to use the RF switch and everything up until I got a psOne in 2000 used RF. SNES and Genesis, n64
>>12356234Well it is FF9 after all.
>>12355897nice blogpost faggot
>>12356240This, but unironically
>>12356234you sound like you're mad than an Apple OLED screen looks better than a noisy hot tiny CRT TVthis is at 8x still but with no shader. if you put it to native resolution at that screen size its truly horrendous
>>12356247I'm not mad at all, it just looked terrible. Also shit like OLED doesn't even translate to screenshots so that's pointless to bring up.
>>12356274
>>12355864>imagine the input lagHow stupid people can be.
>>12356228>razor-sharp sprite pixel edges/corners>paper mache-looking 3d models>shitty convergence effect for some reasonthe worst of every single world
If you play old games stretched to 16:9 I will actually kick your head in mate
>>12356297I play SFII Hyper Fighting stretched to 16:9 all the time. It still looks good.
>>12355864Maybe he's too old for CRT monitors, like me.My eyes can no longer handle CRT imagery. I had to switch to modern screens.
>>12356282that only talks about how stupid you are.old flat panels have no exaggerated input lag because they don't do post processing like newer (and by newer i mean like 2016 onward, maybe a little earlier) tv's do.and if you have a tv with that crap, you turn on game mode or whatever they call it on your specific tv to get rid of it and have 1 to 0 frames of lag.
>>12356279now that looks truly terrible. so many black lines and native resolution. yikes!
>>12356285u big mad!!!! it looks like what a trinitron if it was good would look like, and with a normal round screen
Making this board seethe is fun as fuck
>>12356338shut up
>>12356228>>12356247>pic relatedthis has to be a troll
>>12356338post hand
>>12356349Hand
>>12356334>trinitron if it was good>shit-tier convergenceand i'm supposed to believe you remember a time when CRTs were commonplace?
>>12356310>old flat panels have no exaggerated input lag.>that only talks about how stupid you are.
Toshio, get your kiddie games out of the kitchen!
>>12356328It looks beautiful
>>12355864>Uhhhhh uuhhhh grow up uhhh grow up and sell your crts and move onnnnnSuck a dick fag
>>12356334That looks nothing like what it would look like on a CRT lmfao
>>12356367The fact that that dude thought anything about this picture >>12356228 looks good means he probably has some sort of brain damage. Of course he doesn't remember when CRTs were commonplace.
>>12355864It's hard to film them for video
OLED won
>>12356394Won what exactly? OLEDs are great but they aren't perfect for a lot of reasons. Also I'll pick a CRT for any retro game before any modern panel including OLEDs.
Isn't that the guy who whines about being a 50 year old Japanese deadbeat dad on YouTube for money? Why are you posting him? Why would you think he's patrician by any means?
>>12356094You know the faggots who are on here all the time saying that are just memeing, right?
>>12356410he is the kind of guy who always whines because he wants sympathy and attention. in other words, the typical asian guy.
>>12356415Huh?
You have no fucking idea what you're doing. If you're baiting consider yourself successful, I'm angery.
Damn bro, you live like this?
>>12355864>16:9 stretch
>>12356439It's a gimmick.
Ah yes, this is what the devs really intentedcrystal clear RF
>>12356529
>>12355864Who would even care what people use? Obviously retailers and panel makers. But that's about it. Anybody who talks shit about CRTs is a shill, the proof is in the pudding. Nobody would care unless they were a shill.Always do the opposite of what shills want.
>>12356550beautiful waves, it really adds to the flavor
>>12356427shut up, bitch. no one cares if youre mad at the truth. go play on your shitty mini crt
Nobody admits that the Japanese are retarded and they are attention whores on the internet because people want to be retarded and look like them
>>12356578all people who post on social media trying to show their quirky lifestyle is retardedbig news
>>12355864I used to work with that guy (I live in Japan). He's very chill and I had no idea he's into games.
Nice battle station, could use a widescreen CRT tho.
>>12356615oh its you again, getting triggered HAHAHAAHAH
>>12356624see you in valhala saarredeemed by the cathode ray of borealis fellow Thule saar, we must stop fighted needfully
>>12356615I wish I could have one of those for an affordable price
>>12356454I can almost taste the electric synthwave in the air
>modeling yourself after Japanese coomlectors lol. Even a lot of the big tymer Japanese collectors are pretty clueless, regardless of their collection size and scope. Tricked by obvious bootlegs, "uuoooohhh"ing over popping their few of a kind cartridge into a Nippified Retron 5 hooked up to an LCD, not even understanding basic details of what they collect, you name it. Basically, imagine if your average western Redditor normalfag had easy access to plentiful r@rities, and you have your average Japanese "elite" collector.
>>12355879holy esl
>>12356529nice
I love this guys videos. I think someone needs to send him an RT2X or something . Our boy is on hard times.
>>12356635I bought a Sony Cinema LCD panel a while back, it is a two part deal, one rack mount piece which apparently handles most of the work, then the panel which plugs into the rack. It takes various cards, I got a loaded one with VGA, HDMI, and component inputs (BNC) as well as composite and S-Video. It handles all the conversion for the panel, which is 1280x1024 or 2xNTSC. It will down-convert FHD to its native rez. It has LED-zone backlit technology. This type of panel was only a thing for a couple years but it was their "movie production" grade monitor, which is a step up from broadcast. It handles even weird NTSC modes, I have no idea how. Beautiful thing. I forget the panel designation and have it mounted flat on the wall, I can't remove it easily. But the rack unit is the MEU-WX2. I think my panel is 27"? Might be 24".
>>12356786I don't want an LCD
>>12356727>>12355879>its because they cuck sheds can't hold big crt tvsTOP FUKKEN KEKKEREKE! xDDDDDUnironically this. CRTs are too cost prohibiting, they occupy more space than a modern Movie Production PC. And yes, they are heavy and can melt bamboo stalk and rice paper. xDDD kidding fellow Asians of the Nippon Persuasion, you are cool among the cool.
>>12356328you should have been there, manit was beautiful
>>12356790Yeah I hear ya, I have a number of CRTs and my main TV is a plasma screen. Still the best. But this LCD is absolutely stunning and it can handle weird inputs and modes with ease. My main (plasma) TV can't do 240p for whatever reason, half the time it works, half the time it chokes. It is LITERALLY up to the individual software title for some weird reason.
