A remake of Wonder Boy 3: The Dragon's Trap
I loved that game
SMS thread, anyone?
I had an SMS II when I was a little kid. The only game I could reliably beat was Taz-Mania.

>Wonder Boy 3: The Dragon's Trap
I love this game and am cautiously hyped for the remake (as well as for Monster Boy).

This is the best NES game I've ever played

>>3276075
It was never released in the US, where NES and Mattel branded systems were common

Shitty kiddy platformer with garbage controls and banal level designs and forgettable music.
The latest build of the supermodel emulator can now handle magical truck adventure!!!

We might not be able to recreate the arcade experience without some /diy/ work but now we can check out the game in it's entirety without any graphical mishaps or slow-downs!

LET'S DISCUSS THE SHIT OUT OF THIS GAME
well, most graphical mishaps anyway. There's some glitches here and there but for the most part it's perfect.
Oh fuck I thought this project was dead in the water

You are gonna post the rest, right?
I've been making these NES reviews for nearly 4 months now, and I'd love to get some real feedback. I know that they are fairly unoriginallike their aren't enough retro youtube video in the world, but I find it a good way to have fun with adobe premiere, improve my V/O, as well as script-writing.
Any and every little piece of feedback and/or suggestions would be extremely appreciated.
Anyone else here make YouTube Videos either? I'd love to check them out too!

Too long, you could cut it down to 5, just get the point across.

Why did belt scrollers just suddenly die out after 1994, /vr/?
>belt scrollers
But that's a side scroller beat'em'up.
>>3275085
>belt scroller
It's beat'em up, fag.
>>3275105
>side scroller beat'em'up.
No, that's a dash and punch.
How do I get good at sidescrolling beat-'em-uos?
play a lot, learn the controls
It's about area control. Getting the enemies to go where you want them to go and timing your attacks to when the enemy's vulnerable.
Kinda' turns me off.

Do you mean belt-scrollers, perchance?
What is your favorite retro Konami series, /vr/?

Goemon
>best konami series
Well this was easy
Contra, with Gradius coming in at close second.
Picked this up the other day because I remembered loving the arcade game. Good graphics, great music, probably one of my favorite shooters on the NES and it was super fucking cheap.
What are some good games that you've found that haven't been affected by the retro gaming bubble?
This is actually a sequel to an Arcade/PC Engine game (still called Dragon Spirit). Definitely worth playing if you liked the NES game as its much better! PLUS There's another sequel called Dragon Sabre! And it's EVEN BETTER!
In terms of cheap games, if you're looking just for NES games my suggestion is Batman. I can always find it under $10 and it's a fantastic game.
Gyruss, its fun but overlooked, its like $6 where I live.
There are so fucking many that anytime I hear people complaining about the high price of retro games, I know they are just bandwagoning e-celeb fans angry that the 10 most popular games on the console cost more than $10.
Legacy of the Wizard? $4. Rad Racer? $4. Deja Vu? $4. Captain Skyhawk? $4. Low-G-Man? $4. Solar Jetman? $5. Solstice? $5. Marble Madness? $5. Skate or Die? $5. Iron Sword Wizards and Warriors II? $5. Tetris? $5. Yoshi's Cookie? $5. Dragon Warrior? $5. Robin Hood Prince of Thieves? $6. Wizards and Warriors? $6. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles? $7. RC...

*skips intro*
I wish this was the default intro to the game, I'd watch it every time.

Been playing this all week and just got to dracula, I think i'm playing a version with the psp voices hacked in?
>>3274339
probably. There was a Turbo romhack that puts the English dub in.
The subtitles on the fan-translation's intro (in the OP post) are really off, though. It barely touches half of the dialog. However, at least it exists, and that the intro isn't all that important anyway.
I've seen there's plenty of FFII versions.
Which one do you recommend to play in english?On NES, I already have Dawn of Souls on GBA
>>3273969
Demonic Pandemonium for sure. Game isn't very playable without the hack
>>3273982
Thanks
>>3273969
I recommend to patch it yourself and use the translation by demiforce and after that apply a second patch that restores the original japanese title screen.

I just saw someone stream this obscure FMV game called "Alive". All in Japanese with zero translation. Mostly QTE and some hacking segments for gameplay. It seems to have had a pretty decent budget for an FMV game. Most of those were just green screens. But this is mostly on location shooting, with guns cars and explosions.
You can watch some playthroughs on Youtube. Anyone know anything more about this game?

Did the Dreamcast have the highest good game to bad game ratio? The majority of the games have played are at least decent.
>>3273476
Check the sticky famicom
>>3273467
I'd say so. Most games on that console are a lot of fun, all in all it's a solid console.
Almost the whole DC library was mediocre.
WARNING! !
A HUGE BATTLESHIP
KING FOSSIL

Darius is an euro shmup that gives you a million shields and levels as an excuse for poor game design.

Post the one with Golden Ogre
I'm confused about Mega Man's name.
In Japan, his name is "Rock". And then he dons the name "Rock Man" when he fights crime right?
The intro to MM4 calls him "Rock" and says that he changed to "Mega Man". But nothing else since ever calls him "Rock". Not official sources, or anything. So is he "Rock", "Mega" or "Mega Man" ?
You're so confused that you made me confused.
He's whatever they felt like calling him at the time.
His name was Rock before he became Mega Man.
