How can I simulate a 90s video game session in current day?
Besides original hardware and crt
>>
>>12689181
That's about all you need unless you want to decorate your whole house like it's a 90s house. Also buy an unopened Coca-Cola can from the 90s and drink it.

Turn off your phone. You dont even need oem or a crt
>>
>>12689181
Turn down your phone.
Swear at the game.
Drink coke.
>>
>>12689181
Hire a hooker to check in on you once per hour and to demand once a day at the worst possible time that you stop playing so you can come eat dinner
>>
>turn off your phone and your discord / instant messaging shit
>play fullscreen

That's literally it. Optionally make sure to use a period accurate pad for extra points.
>>
stale dust, hot plastic, and girl feet

imagine
>>
>>12689202
Literally this
I was born in 91 and playing fullscreen without looking at your phone or alt-tabbing is the same shit
>>
All the shit i own is the same stuff i had in the 90s.
>>
>>12689213
I've been alt-tabbing since before you were born.

hire a milf to come vacuum your bedroom while youre playing. be sure to hold up the controller wire so she can go underneath it.

Everyone thought about fucking their mother at one point. Mine was a chubby redhead with huge tits.

throttle your internet connection and take 12 hours to download a Neo Geo ROM

Fuck your own mother, buddy!
>>
>>12689181
hire a grandma to smoke a shit ton menthols in your immediate vicinity, smell is the key contributor to memory
>>
>>12689492
This.

The smell of coffee still reminds me of getting up at 4am to go to the airport for a holiday. Cheap perfume reminds me of my grandma and how nice she was to me.
>>
>>12689181
What do zoomers actually think the 90s were?
>>
>>12689498
That we had everything and had access to everything they have but we had it physically or something.

Zoomers act surprised whenever they find out most people got a console 2 or more years after it was released and many people kept playing SNES and Genesis into 1996/97.
>>
>>12689498
After a certain point, nobody alive is going to fully understand what it was like living without the internet being a constant presence. We're already seeing it with younger zoomers and gen alphas, the world before that is incomprehensible on some level to them.
>>
>>12689498
I got accused of lying for attention when I told a zoomer most people didn't get internet in their house until the mid-late 00's.
>>
>>12689190
we are all adult now so we can snort our coke.
>>

>>12689541
All my relatives smoked and it didn't do me any harm. It only weeds out the weak, heh, *pushes up glasses*.
>>
>>12689181
Doritos, grape soda and occasionally some stale Pop Rocks from a pack you opened the day before.
If you're going for early '90s then find some candy cigarettes and pretend you're smoking them as you play.
>>
id like to simulate a session with her hardware
>>
>>12689181
>How can I simulate a 90s video game session in current day?
Get yourself the shittiest 15" CRT you can, prop it up on a rickety table, sit on the floor in your bedroom in the middle of summer with no air con, starve all day until your mother decides to cook or if you're feeling daring try to sneak some bread and butter sandwiches from the kitchen. Play the one game you own for 6 months. You don't have the internet or a TV with more than 5 channels and if you wanna listen to music your only options are your parents casette's/CD's or turn on the FM radio.
>>
>>12689545
or some button candy. and yes you have to eat the paper that peels off with them
>>
>>12689554
vivid memories of being very proud of myself when I only managed to get a few layers of paper torn off of a single sheet of candy, but most of the time it was gross chewing paper

can't believe it's legal
>>
>>12689548
This post reminded me of something that's near impossible to emulate now: the higher quality junk food
>>
>>12689562
chicken was worse in the 90s and full of processed rubbery bits, but then it got better in the 2010s when everyone was making new chicken products. now it's shit again.

but it cost $1 back in the 90s so...
>>
To truly simulate the 90s gaming experience, hook up your console to whatever TV is in the living room since this is the only TV your family owns! Be prepared to be kicked off so they can watch TV but not all is lost... Dad loves watching the Simpsons!
>>
>>12689548
This but also get some people to scream at each other in the other room, and occasionally hit each other. The disorientation of having your game on pause for 45 minutes while the police are there and then coming back to it adds a fun challenge.
>>
>>12689572
i remember when I was over a friend's house and his mom and dad started loudly arguing upstairs because she thought it was rude of him to not greet me before I greeted him when he came home. it was so embarrassing.
>>
>>12689205
Don't forget the overwhelming fish stank from that aquarium. And unwashed NEET gamer girl puss. Probably indistinguishable form each other.
>>
>>12689572
>Go to friends house
>His real dad shows up to visit while his mother and step-dad aren't there
>We're all playing Risk at the kitchen table
>His real dad starts hassling me about giving his son the "good seat" while everyone else just starest at the floor in silence
>>
>>12689286
get ready for your prostate exam, unc
>>
Set a recording to play in the other room of parents arguing on sunday morning and that will be your wake up sound. Then wish they have other business to attend to so you can play the video games.
>>
>>12689181
Have friends
>>
>>12689572
i'm so confused about this one, like my mom and step dad argued but they argued at night when I was asleep so I never had any interuptions while gaming.
>>
>>12689545
>stale Pop Rocks from a pack you opened the day before
ahh I can taste the pain
>>
>>12689181
Most important thing is removing phones. CRT is only important if you're playing action games, especially fast 2D action games. E.g. the classic Sonic the Hedgehog games look like shit on a sample-and-hold display.
>>
>>12689545
as someone who grew up in the 90s this must be a west coast thing, cause East coast was Lays potato chips, Coca Cola and Reeses Peanut butter cups while playing mega man X for the SNES and link to the past.

>a TV with more than 5 channels
Uk fag? Remember when the spice girls launched channel 5? Remember when most of it's late night programming was (very) softcore porn?
>>
>>12689583
I don't know what disgusting places you are part of, but I have 2 aquariums in my living room and they do not smell at all.
>>
>>12689856
>Uk fag?
Yeah.
>Remember when the spice girls launched channel 5?
I missed that, my memories of Channel 5 were watching the quiz shows and being smarter than the grown ass adults they had on there lol. Also I think they had some decent movies sometimes, might be mixing it up with Channel 4 though.
>Remember when most of it's late night programming was (very) softcore porn?
YES. First orgasm was watching a show about runway models and one took her jumper off to reveal her bare TITS and I instantly got hard and splooged in under 3 seconds handsfree.
>>
>>12689868
Lucky. We had to watch the scrambled porn on channel 99 and you were lucky if you got to see a glitched out nipple. I still remember the titles of some of the movies. Backdoor burglars, sex commando, things like that.
>>
>>12689876
That's a lot more raunchy sounding than UK tv. When freeview came out the channels went into the hundreds, the porn ones would have like a freebie hour late at night where you'd see some saucy stuff sometimes. That's the closest I got to porn before we got internet. That and looking at the adverts for tranny massages in the back of the paper lol.

would you be happy playing games all day on a cuckpod while eating raw fish and mochi all day?
definitely not.

throw your phone in the ocean cut off your internet and play games
>>
>>12689890
Sure thing whatever you say faggot.
>>
>>12689890
We can afford to have ventilation in our houses, I know your favela only has open holes without windows
>>

I'm just amazed by what sheltered asians and whites on this board decide to have for pets in their domiciles that lack bidets.
>>
>>12689737
Most people don't remodel their house all the time.
