Which is more egregious; Games ending in "64", or games beginning with "Super"?
Option C: this retarded OPfpbp and /thread
For me it's games ending in X on PSX like Mega Man or Dracula
>>12801489I think it's okay for MM to have the X subtitle since that's a different series entirely.
>>12801496I guess "Super" is the more egregious title. I've always thought the heavy usage of "Super" in titles got kicked into overdrive by the 4th gen, then became a title gimmick for most N64 games. (Especially MM Legends, though its "64" title could be a shit localization choice.)
>>12801489>Dracula X>PSXDid your uncle work at Sony?
>>12801565No but yours obviously didn't either
>>12801594But that doesn't end with X
>>12801473Super at the start is alright, at least pre-SNES. Slapping 64 on the end of everything was just laziness.For me, it's games with 2000 in the title that didn't come out in 1999 or 2000>Faceball 2000>Dune 2000>Firepower 2000 >V2000>Tempest/Breakout/Defender 2000>Gamera 2000It's fine for like 70s/80s sci-fi, but when the millennium is right around the the corner it just sounds so lame.
64. It's inclusion can only be attributed to the console name and makes zero sense in any other context. "Super" naming is still obviously due to the console's name (and I guess by extension, also because of Super Mario Bros, since presumably that played a part in how Nintendo named the console), but it's also a general adjective which still makes sense in any other context. "Super" can just mean it's an exciting game full of cool shit, "64" just means it's on the Nintendo 64.
Why is it called "Super Metroid" if Super Earthbound the alien super and Samus wasn't but the Metroid?
>>12801616>Akumajou Dracula X: Gekka no Yakoukyoku, a direct sequel to Akumajou Dracula X: Chi no Rondo
>>12801627>is called Super Pong>wasn't for Nintendo
>Pong>Super Pong>Breakout>Super BreakoutHow did Atari know?
>>12801647>>12801656Yes, "Super" makes sense in other contexts beyond games released for the SNES, so it's a less egregious naming convention.
>>12801489>Mega man X was on SNES>Dracula X was on PCE and SNESYou retarded?
>Street Fighter II>Super Street Fighter II>Super Street Fighter II X
>>12801473Why not both?
>Doom3>wasn't on GamecubeWhat gives? That's like a Super [title] for the Genesis.
>Nintendo 64>Not calling it the Hyper Nintendo>Hyper Mario>Hyper Metroid>Hyper Punch-Out>Hyper Ghouls n Ghosts>Hyper Mario Kart>Hyper Bomberman>Hyper Contra>Hyper Castlevania V>Hyper Super Street Fighter II X Turbo: Hyper Fighting
>METALSLUG>ECKSSSSSS
>>12801780If this game had Luigi, would it be Super Mario 64 Bros or Super Mario Bros 64?
>it's not any more advanced than the original
A rare specimenThere's also Ape Escape P on PSP but that is NOT RETRO so I will not be posting an image of it
>>12801473The most egregious is PS2 games ending in 2:>Metal Gear Solid 2>Silent Hill 2>Armored Core 2>Guilty Gear X2>Virtua Figgter 2Har har you guys, naming everything just because it's on the Playstation 2. Pick something original like Super Monkey Ball or picrel
>>12801620>Wipeout 2097
>>12801857>Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2Xboxmind. blown.
Neither bother me.
>F-Zero GX itself is a natural title for the sequel to F-Zero X>Arcade version is called F-Zero AX, meaning that the G actually stands for Gamecubeneat
>>12801887It's not called Samurai Showdown 64 tho
>Is called Samurai Shodown 64>cartridge won't fit in my N64Should I ask for a refund?
>>12801732>advanceLMAO, I forgot they were still doing this shit past the N64 era.
>>12801857>PSP isn't retro
>>12802158see>>11702620
>>12801478Bodied that freak
If 128-bits was invented, could we have had Super Mario 128?
>>12802254No, we would've had Pikmin.
>Xbox 360>wasn't 360-bitMarketing lied.
>>12801643But that doesn't end with X
>>12802046Advance Wars is a funny one because Advance became part of the series name in the international releases when it was meant to be just for the GBA ones.
>>12802351>Dracula X>Dracula X: Rondo of Blood>Dracula X: Symphony of the Night
>>12801842Super 64 Mario Bros
>>12802353>we could've had Wii Warsrip
>>12802383That's not on the Playstation...
>>12802383Looks to be a Mega Man X situation.
I think the only really embarrassing scenario existed on the 64.>after the fact, neutered port>giving it a special name for the afterthought releasesuper was more often a completely unrelated non marketing term or it was a one off release on the super nintendo.
>>12802621Yeah I can't imagine how many N64 owners must've missed out on Tron Bonne.
>>12802383>Dracula X: Nocturne in the Moonlight
>>12802258Pikmin 128?
>>12801473None, get real opinions and ask real questions people!
>>12801838It was almost called Ultra>Ultra Mario
>>12801473PC man VS Pacman.
