Which one /v/
>>334835053
whichever one you have access to because just play video games. People take this shit to audiophile levels of retardation
>>334835053
all are literally identical
GBA
>>334835685
you should check your eyes
How about these?
>>334835053
I'd that S-Video here. Doesn't look as blurry as RF Video / Composite but isn't as thin as Emulation.
Though i'm sure i'd be able to play RF Video and Composite without finding it uncomfortable.
>>334835984
top left, how is this even debatable?
>>334836216
You see the pixels too much in top left, i'd rather take Bilinear even though it looks a bit blurry.
>>334835053
I like no filters for a clean picture, but if I had to choose I'd go with S-Video. I used to have one of those shitty nes/snes clones, it had an S-video port and games looked pretty nice.
>>334835053
I think the water effect is interesting. Does it really come up as lines on the first two using a real TV? What about with a filter?
I wonder what the "artist's intention" was, if those lines are it or if those are just an unintended consequence
integer scale 2 or 3x, then linear the result
>>334835053
I think it's obvious that 8:7 is literal shit tier
In order to get 4:3, you have to use some kind of filter, unless you're outputting on an actual CRT
>>334835984
at 2x size, they're all fine
If you're playing full screen, probably 2xbr
>>334835053
RF Video almost looks like how I played it back then. Still prefer pixel-perfect emulation tho.
>>334835984
Bilinear definitely looks the best.
>>334835053
RF, while sitting cross legged on the floor upstairs in a poorly lit room that smells of mold staring at a 10" color tv with 2" integrated paper cone speakers.
>>334835984
What does any of that even mean?
>>334835053
you forgot RGB
Svideo
>>334837517
>no filter x2
No filter. Original image at 2x size
>Bilinear
Bilinear filter, basically just "blurry" instead of crisp pixels
>2xsal, super eagle, hz2xs, 2xbr
These are all names of various filters that do slightly different things
>>334835984
the problem with filters that reshape the art is they look like crap in motion with wobbly edges on things because they don't know what pixels do/don't belong together
>>334836898
It's usually intended. They use pixel dithering to give the water a transparent effect. Composite/RF brings out the effect better because they blur pixels together more than S-Video and above does.
That's why I prefer using composite while playing but I can absolutely see why people prefer having a clean image over seeing some color blurring effects in small places.
>>334837517
You either know or you google.
>>334835053
SCART or nothing, faggot.
This one.

OUT
NOW
>>334838561
if you're going to stretch the aspect ratio to 4:3, you have to use a filter. left looks terrible.
>>334835984
>filters
Absolutely disgusting.
I have a BETTER FILTER
>>334835053
Not a fair comparison. The yellow box isn't there for the emulation. Inconclusive.
>filters
Is there a more pretentious way to play videogames?

Honestly, this looks like a stained glass window, which I would totes buy
>>334839416
>>334839318
It is for some games
>>334839318
It always depends on the game
>>334839672

Is there a video of these in motion?
They're neat, if impractical
>no RGB
>>334835984
Those are some old-ass filters.
>>334840079
Sorry, that doesn't exist in Murica
>>334839964
Just reminds of the weird filter they put over the Heritage for the Future "HD" port.
>>334840210
Should of used this
>>334840347
Oops, wrong one

Holy FUCK that looks cool. I feel like JoJo is something stylistic enough to warrant playing with filters like this.

>>334840980
I'll always say Yoshi's Island looks better with filters than without. It complements the artstyle.

>>334841259
it's not a filter, it's shitposting
>>334841419
This is motion would probably make me sick
>>334841386
the backgrounds and terrain look better but yoshi and mario look like shit
>jojo game with stained-glass filters
I finally have a reason to post this
>>334841479
How so?
>>334841667
It's all wavy and shit. Toned down it'd probably be ok, or maybe that oil paint filter they removed from photoshop would work too.
>>334835053
Composite. If I'm playing on my CRT I'm willing to sacrifice the minor loss in clarity in exchange for effects working properly.
>>334841521they look like shit as unfiltered pixels too, you're just forcing yourself not to see all the stray pixels (which is what causes the problems in the filtering process) as features instead of flaws

>Not using component
>Not getting better color definition at the cost of more visible aliasing
They're all a bunch of polygonal shit anyways
Composite is pretty much everywhere and is good enough for me.
>>334841849
>stray pixels
Come again?
>>334843000
Not him, but he might be referring to the outlines of the characters, look at baby mario and how much of his body consists of a black outline
this is the best I can do
>>334844056
Shoulda been a webum
Neat effect though
>>334843000
Mario, the pixel that forms the bridge of the nose looks like ass.
Yoshi's right nostril touches the outline.
Yoshi's eyes are droopy.
Yoshi's right arm is a mangled mess.
All of these are just caused by the limited size of the sprite and are not inherently design flaws. When enhanced with filters that upscale the sprites 4 or 6 times the issues are magnified and become extremely apparent, but they were already there to begin with.
The trick is that when we're looking at pixel graphics we automatically don't pay attention to such details, and let the brain fill in the blanks, so that nose appears curved, and the arm is flexed upwards.
>>334844250

it's an abstract kind of filter
