Do you think people still play all those old sports slops on retro systems? There's hundreds of them, all useless, all complete garbage. You got to wonder if there's some autist still playing them.
Gun and ball gamers don't care about culture
>>12504227I've picked a few from each sport I like and play those.NHL 94 and 98 are my hockey games of choice. Virtua Tennis for tennis. SWOS and Hat Trick Hero S for soccer.I'm never gonna play NHL 2002 or Top Spin or literally any FIFA game ever made because I've already found my perfect games in those genres.
>>12504227Absolutely yes, at least when it comes to the more bombastic and game-y titles, like NBA JAM or the Mario sports games. As for the random annualized EA Sports games, probably a lot fewer.
>>12504227How can a game be slop? Are you a stupid cunt or something?
They absolutely do. NBA Jam/Hangtime is still relatively popular, and there aren't really modern alternatives (the newer one was delisted years ago, and never was on PC, I believe)NHL '94 still has people modding it with roster updatesThe NFL Blitz games are sort of like NBA Jam equivalents, and still decently popularkids who weren't even sportsbros would still play these games back then, OP, they were just that popularI only played little league baseball and had a brief stint as a lineman (I don't even like football), and was never actually a fan of watching sports, but would still rent a baseball or basketball game occasionallyI get being sick of seeing the deluge of sports games at shops, but they aren't necessarily bad games, they're just obsolete, and sold in such numbers that they're every fucking where todaymany were actually fairly impressive, EA's games in particularI personally only play the more arcade-y stuff nowadays, like Super Baseball 2020 and the other SNK-made ones, Mutant League, Mario Golf, etc.
>>12504227Yes. I would say breaking point was 2001. After that there is no point of playing sport games.
>>12504227Sensible Soccer is still a great game and that's even older.
>>12504258>How can a game be slop?Anon, I...
>>12504227I thought of opening a gaming bar with weekly competitions, one of which would be "old sports games nobody has played for decades" and rotate through different sports games from the 80s and 90s.Another would be "fighting games no one has played". Winner gets 5 free beers or a free quart of vodka to take home or something. I wonder if people would go to that sort of event.
>>12504314>Trannybot, go to hell!
>>12504227Chel 94 is the greatest hockey game ever, and if you ask a canadian, it is also the best sports game of all time.
>>12504323If you're in a decently populous area, folks would definitely show up to do fighting tournaments with booze prizes as long as the entry fee was reasonable. The other stuff seems like a fun novelty, but you have to keep in mind that zoomers, millenials and even younger GenX are way less likely to go out drinking in a bar, or even socialize in public more generally. Your biggest demographic will probably be hipsters who are a dying breed.I've been to a Dave & Busters in NorCal and it was a ghost town on a Saturday, so idk you have to be careful with something like that.
>>12504350he could make it a boba or smoothie place
>>12504227Back then only niggers played those games and now no one does unless they are one of those Midwestern working class whites whom are snowed in with nothing else to do.
Imagine slapping "slop" on a classic like NBA Jam. God, you're such a hylic pretending to be enlightened. Go play your bing bing wahoo, troon.
>>12504365Do you talk to people like this IRL? How do they look at you when you do?
>>12504358you're either a zoomchild, a terminal shut-in, or both if you believe that at all, retard
>>12504368But I am a Midwestern working class white whom is snowed in with nothing else to do.
>>12504358only if you owned a gaynesis. none of the kids at school with a snezz played those games.
>>12504367Sir this is 4chan.
>>12504406Yeah and culture war brainrot posts like yours are turning this board and all others into complete garbage
>>12504425You can appeal to cringe but this is no party with all the girls looking at me weird. You understood what I said and I meant all of that. Calling everything slop and garbage in an attempt to incite a reaction is not conductive to quality discussion either. Fuck you.
>>12504227I play them and find them fun. I'll never get why it seems most on /vr/ find it cool to hate on sports video games all of the time. A sport is just a game, and video games based on other games, like board games or card games, has always been common. Also, video games began with titles like Tennis For Two and Pong. I get the hate they get now for the business practices that are awful for the consumer, but back then? We'd have a variety of titles that played so differently, and whenver yearly titles became a thing we'd still get a genuine upgrade each year, it was exciting for sports fans.I just went back to TECMO World Cup '93 on the SEGA Master System, which I find funny because it was made by SIMS, TECMO just licensed it in the west, and there was no World Cup in 1993. Anyways I managed to win the World Cup with a pretty strong Brazil side, they'd win the World Cup in 1994 afterall, in the last few seconds against Germany, so fun to play.
I set up NHL 94 and drunk bros pay to play every time
>>12504227i still play tommy lasorda baseball, bulls vs blazers, nba jam: te, nfl sportstalk football 94, nhl 94 and a handful more. you fucking trash zoomer loser pieces of shit really are on a high horse about games, eat shit and die and burn in hell
>>12504227Yeah it's worth having at least one per sport, just pick the one you like best I guess.
>>12504227As a collectorfag who buys to play, my interests in sports games comes down to the platform. The older the systems, i an more inclined to seek out all of them per system, as i think its interesting to see how each piece of hardware attempted each sport, or an example from different devs. If its yearly stuff, im not interested in them all, but i will usually seek out the first entry in a franchise and the last, or whats generally considered the best in the series. Arcadey titles are always worth getting.So basically i would get every sports game on the nes, but not the famicom.
>>12504358blacks didn't play video games in the 90s because they couldn't afford game systems. the PS2 was when they could finally get into gaming. you think nogs knew who John Madden was?
>>12507281SEGA was the better system for sports games, at least the Genesis. the only good (still worth playing) sports games on the NES were baseball titles.
>>12504227nba jam is timeless and nhl 94 has huge cult status. but by and large most of these old sports titles have just faded into obscurity.
>>12504425You finna bout to crash out tranny o algo?
