Women like fighting games for some reason. Go figure.

Mario Kart 64

>>12550394
Neo Geo is a pussy magnet. Only real hardware though.

I've never spoken to a woman IRL and neither have you.

>>12550376
Cool, you're blessed she likes visual novels.

>>12550394
Interesting. Do you mean stuff more like smash bros, or something more like street fighter 2?

>>12550395
I've done this, Mario Kart and Mario Party are always great choices
>>
>>12550406
>street fighter 2
SF, KOF and especially Mortal Kombat.
>>
>>12550394
Probably either because they like games that feature cute, dressup-ish outfits for the female characters, or because they want to get railed by the muscular dudes.
>>
>>12550417
That's cool man, I'll try to start her with street fighter first before getting into Mortal Kombat
>>
Not retro but my wife saw me playing unpacking and she was like “this game must be hard for you” because I’m very unorganized, it’s funny, but she’s also autistic so she might not know how good of a burn it was.
>>
>>12550432
Kek. I think there's other reasons too.

1) The premise of a fighting game like SF is straight forward, so it's pick up and play.
2) I think the 1v1 social element is a big factor. 3) The matches are short and sweet
4) If they are even slightly competitive they will want to keep playing

No one here has been in sniffing distance of a female who wasn't their mother, try asking somewhere else.

Even in the year of our Lord 2026 when a girl says she can kick your ass at Mario Kart 9/10 times it’s Mario Kart 64. It made sense when I was growing up, but it really doesn’t make sense to me in current year but yeah, unless she’s a YT/twitch streamer girl and just a normie it always seems to be MK 64. And it’s all fun and games until you hop the railing in star road or hop the walls in warios circuit cutting the race in half and then someone usually gets angry.

The most retro thing she plays is Sims 3 but that's not quite retro and she has it modded to hell and back.
She does sometimes watch me play the Saturn tho
>>
I used to smoke crack with a hooker a play co-op Tetris.
>>
>>12550460
But how much of it is, "just a fighting game he happens to have on hand that we can both play?"

>>12550468
Yeah, for some reason it's a popular retro choice among girls. Must be related to the switch online service as well

>>12550468
That's cool, I like when the girl just keeps me company when I play games. They do seem to like sims a lot, everyone but 1. I never played any, I wonder if it's a good multiplayer game.

>>12550495
Lmao, tetris is cool for everyone. I wonder about pong, I might get a retro pong console, heck, I might even get grandma to play as well.
>>
Women played the Sims back in the early 2000s

And the current females just play console slop or mainstream online FPS arena crap

You won't meet a girl who's passionate about playing Tekken 3 because she likes the mechanics
>>
>>12550367
I have a wife (male), so all of them.

I've played through the classic Tomb Raider series multiple times with my gf, once just for fun and then again going for all secrets. Also the first three Jak and Daxter games, ICO, Contra: Hard Corps (w/ cheats) and a bunch of random old arcade games we played on CoinOps on my OG Xbox. We ended up playing Jungle King a lot for some reason. She even got a kick out of a bunch of offensive ROM hacks I downloaded (Baby Dodgeball, Super Nazi Penis Cartel, etc).
My life is complete dog shit but I know I'm lucky to have her.
>>
>>12550367
Tetris, Columns, Dr. Mario, etc. Any puzzle game really is gurl bait.
>>
>>12550456
I have been, but the women didn't know I was.
>>
>>12550495
The fuck is coop tetris?
>>
>>12550637
Tengen Tetris on NES is the only one with the mode I know of. Big screen and you each control a piece. It's tricky.

Women don't actually exist. It's all a massive psyop. Name ONE woman.

She's probably in sims 4 or stardew now
Or any mobile farming game + match-3
It's always those culprits, they never play real games
And when they do, it's garbage like LoL

The only retro games i can think gurls would be into, is harvest moon, sims 1 and animal crossing

I'd be genuinely surprised if any person with XX chromossomal sex played something so popular with women like harry potter pre-7th gen in the last 5 years
They would probably give up at any technical problem or complain about graphics/clunky gameplay, while happily enjoying sims 4 microtransactional hellhole and 5fps riveting gameplay in demanding areas

I say this not because I'm an jerky hipster and elitistic asshole, that's the case too i suppose, but my main takeaway is pure disappointment in their lack of perseverance and curiosity.

This isn't exclusive to them, many /v/eetards are like that too, but come on man...
Why they're always relentlessly seeking uniformity? Not to be an incel dick, but it's genuinely baffling...

That's an unironic appeal. Your player character is a stylish and attractive girl who guys like and who has some power too? And there's multiple different outfits to choose from?
It's really quite obvious, and only deviates somewhat from the counterpart male powerfantasies of playing cool chad action heroes.

Everyone enjoys watching someone cool do cool things, and everyone wants to be someone cool in some way or another.
Oh yeah, and some women enjoy seeing brazenly masculine men, too.

>>12550450
Also true.

>>12550456
Some of us are old enough to have hit puberty decades ago, it sucks that you were warped by coof lockdown, but your generation's experience was abnormal.
>>
>>12550460
How's the Phantom Blood game? It's perhaps my favorite part in both the manga and anime.
>>
The two I can always count on my wife to play with me are Spyro and Crash. Theme Park too a lot of the time.
>>
>>12550650
I played this with the CPU2 player, and it made me mald because it would make retarded moves that would fuck both of us, which sometimes you could stop in time, and other times not.
>>
>>12551750
It's weird how girls never play strategy sims but somehow make exceptions for Rollercoaster Tycoon and Theme Park.
>>
>>12550745
Games either give women the ick or they are playing assassins creed 9 modern warfare 10 or PC arena game (hey guys I'm a grill btw tee hee silly boys don't hit o mee) whatevers popular.. whatever shilled by corporate.. ghost.of nagashima or whatever

i played like 1 farming game in my whole life. Puzzle Quests were fun, but those aren't /vr/ regulation.

i've only seen "normal" unfat grills play rhythm games,Maple Story and "competitive" e-sports kinda games.

Much more fun with a hooker.

That game seems fun, thanks for rec.

>>12551295
Oof, the LoL thing is so accurate dude. I wonder how many noobs I find online are chicks. I wonder about how many girls played that Harry potter gamecube game back in the day. It's probably more than what we think.

That reminds me, I have that quidditch game for the gamecube, I'll try to get her to play it with me. I'm not a sports games buffoon, but that game is appealing.

>>12551739
Short and sweet matches is definitively a factor. I can't see normie girls playing long rpg games as a common thing

>>12551767
I wonder about that too

>>12552083
That tetris street fighter 2 ps1 game is probably a good choice then
>>
>>12550367
My wife and I loved beating Super Bomberman together one time, also beat World of Illusion, good memories.

It's funny because there are a myriad of options and better
games with greater accessibility and interesting gameplay.
Sure, it doesn't look as crispy, but there's a lot of charm.

And yet, they choose suffering because there are e-kittens
they imagine themselves as their smol beans e-avatar.
I'm not pulling this out of my ass: something like 98% of
female players only play female characters.

Strip all that coat of paint and the underbelly is ugly and sweaty.
I've been there. I've seen some shit.

of cose you do. did you also hug your fat gamer sister today?

Women I've met generally like the Neo-Geo. It's not a joke, either. I've had plenty of girls ask if they could come over and play some Metal Slug.

"Can I play that one where you shoot things?"

Tetris the Grand Master 2 has a mode like this too. Both players have to reach level 300 to win. The game enters 20G mode for the player who finishes first, so both players have to keep pace with each other and try to finish at around the same time or it gets impossibly hectic.
