Two games from 1988
>>
1 console game from 1988 & 1 arcade game from 1988
>>
>>12773779
your point?
>>
>>12773779
The game on the left is better. But yeah, lots of impressive stuff in arcades in the 80s, especially relative to consoles.

OP doesn't actually want to discuss what he posted
It's just the new meme thread template
>>
>>12773779
its almost as if the game on the right was running on hardware ten times as expensive
>>
>>12773847
Yet the game on the left is ten times more fun, why?
>>
>>12773849
Sega had a bad habit of releasing too many games with little quality control.

That arcade game was running on megadrive hardware. (68k, identical resolution).
>>
>>12773779
Shit bait but i'll shoot you down regardless.

Left 1983 hardware
Right 1988 hardware
>>
>>12774363
It was not, the retail Megadrive used inferior specs to the arcade.

>megadrive hardware. (68k, identical resolution).
You're either completely retarded or just a liar. It's like calling the Neo Geo or the CPS-1 and CPS-2 Mega Drive hardware.
>>
>>12774367
>1983 hardware
WRONG Smb3 catridge has chips made after 1983
>>
>>12774363
Yeah, megadrive hardware with hardware sprite scaling and 4096 colors on screen at once
>>
>>12773779
The game on the right is a 15 minute long, boring, shallow, tedious, ugly (artistically) game. I 1CCed Altered Beast and SMW is like 50x the game that that piece of shit is.
>>
>>12773791
man nowadays arcades are just
>dude what if phone game but on fuck huge screen?!
and general kid casino shit though whats interesting is racing and rail shooters exist and I've noticed the more modern rail shooters have shifted to almost exclusively using turrets like ocean hunter used which makes me wonder if the nintendo wii killed the traditional pistol rail shooter I mean even the fucking halo arcade game uses a turret. sure there was rail shooters at home before but wii and ps3's knock off version had better hardware than retro consoles I dunno it's interesting
>>
>>12775204
oh yeah and racing game cabinets still existing are easily explained by the fact that race rigs can take up a lot of space
>>
>>12775204
I think the turret-thing is a consequence of the general pussification of the world. Weapons bad and scary! Turrets don't look kike scary weapons, turrets good. Also they always shoot colored blobs and there's seldom blood
>>
>>12773779
nintendo has always been behind in graphics except for a brief moment in the n64 era, what's your point?

this is just nintendo being nintendo
