What is this shit? Is this honestly what people think arena shooters should look like?
Also no it's not retro.

Looks retro....
>>3089790
It looks like a minecraft mod at best.
Sorry if you were being satirical.
This is a grey area for the board. The games are new but the hardware is old. If we in fact have any mods who disagree with this being here then that's their call but people have made a lot of cool stuff for retro hardware which we might like to share. So until if or when this thread gets deleted, post & discuss some of your favorite Retro Homebrew titles.

As you can see from the picture I posted in the OP, there's people still making some pretty impressive looking stuff for the Neo Geo. Of course I would be hard pressed to drop $500 on one of them because there's so many other things I could do with that money but the price isn't unfair considering what original Neo Geo games cost when new and adjusted for inflation.
This one is a Metal Slug "homage" I use quotation marks because it looks like they took a lot of assets from the original...

I particularly enjoy it though when it's stuff for the weird systems. like that guy who made stuff for 32X. If someone could make a good port of Out-Run for the 32X I would be so on board.

There's no gray area if it runs on the original hardware. The rule is "on platforms launched in 1999", the release date of the game only matters where there's no clear platform (PC games).
Is Valis the most underrated retro platformer series?
No.
Absolutely not
While I think the pc engine itself is underrated, the valis series itself is overrated as fuck. The best game is the valis 1 remake and even that is merely okay
Telenet was wildly inconsistent with their games

>the valis series itself is overrated as fuck
you don't even know what that means, we're talking about Valis
calling stuff overrated is fucking retarded anyway
fear effect series any one have gif of this series love the games

Well I may have one or two kicking about. Always happy to see another fan
Do you collect complete-in-box games, /vr/?
Carts loose, CD games with case and manual. Saturn games, a stack of CD-Rs and my best handwriting.
There only retro game I have in box (other than PS1 and Dreamcast games) is Donkey Kong Country. Yard sale. Five bucks. Best I had was Super Mario RPG. Found it complete in box for two bucks at a pawn shop back in the early 2000s. Sold it when I moved to California and needed money.
Other than those, I would have had cases from buying new SNES games and such, but they're long gone.
>>3085138
Only complete I have are cd based games. Had a couple complete snes games (ff vi, mega man x) but sold them about a year ago. Have manuals for a lot of cartridge games.
How many hours did you spend killing these things /vr/?
Also fuck you captcha I want pancakes now
>>3084821
Heh. Yeah, I did this too. What you are supposed to do is not go there. The game thows those enemies at you at that exit so you see how strong they are, then run away.
Instead I spent a while grinding.
None. I figured out the way that the game rewards stat ups around halfway through and I've never been able to get over my perfectionism enough to finish it since.
I don't even need to play it that way, it's not even a hard game, I just can't seem to deal.
>>3084986
>Not grinding no matter the difficulty.
Not gonna make it.
>grew up playing N64 and PS1
>have semi-regular dreams set in fifth-gen 3D environments
Anyone else know this feel?
>>3084290
I had one of those hyper realistic fever dreams after pulling off a three day marathon of gauntlet to 100% on n64.

How old were you
>>3084503
Probably 12 or 13.
Still the greatest Street Fighter game of all time.
Alpha 3 can't be the best because "it's broken" but why does that have to be criteria? Can't it just be fun?
I prefer Alpha 2

mmm
this is cool
you're too slow
haha funny joke

Hey guys, I'm going to start a new ps1 JRPG today. Any suggestions on what to play next? Last 1 I played was Star Ocean Second Story and absolutely loved it. I'll list the ones in my collection I haven't played yet. Parasite Eve 1 and 2, Chrono Cross, Legend of Dragoon, FF VIII, FF IX, Xenogears, Lunar 1 and 2, Breath of Fire IV. Thanks for any suggestions.
Valkyrie Profile should be high on your list. It's easily in the list of top RPGs on the system.
>>3082859
Shadow Madness is the most underrated JRPG on the PS1 (yes, it's a JRPG despite beign American). It's not as good as SO2, but better than most of your list.
>>3082859
Earthbound is a must-play for any JRPG fan.
Anyone want to talk about the darius series?
Which is your favorite game of the series and which is your favorite ship?
Best graphics, best music, best gameplay, best bosses.
CLOSE

Love the ship designs, but Gaiden is the only game in the series I've played. Looks neat, but it was just another shmup. They all feel the same to me.
I have a Sega megadrive 2 that isn't working g great. I replaced all the cables for it but there is still a lot of noise and static (despite being RGB).
Any thoughts on what's wrong with it?
>>3082350
Looks like your sync cable isn't working anon
>>3082368
It does the same thing with an RCA composite cable as it does with the RGB. The games work and the picture appears but there is always a lot of noise over the images.
>>3082380
Are you just using a scart cable for rgb? Maybe the composite video signal is stuffed? It's used for both sync with rgb and composite video. Maybe caps or the frequency crystal?
I've had my PS1 for... 16 years now, I think, maybe more? I don't remember, but it's the model with the screen, as in the picture.
I didn't play it for a year, maybe 2, but I felt like buying a CD and burning Spyro 3 and Klonoa to play it on it (the PS1 has a modchip).
... So...
It doesnt read my burns (It reads Spyro 3 sometimes)
All my burned discs of yore cant be read well or freeze at some point, with the exception of Mega Man X4, which works, but the sound stream is iffy, the music stops for 1 or 2 seconds at random. Ditto with FMVs.

ガンパレ
おすすめ
>>3082291
Ganpare is recomended? What?
>>3082291
OPのPS1がゲームCDを読めない状態でガンパレが遊びできないよ
Do the high resolution modes cause unpleasant interlace flicker or does the N64's natural astigmatism filter neutralize it?
Is this thing worth getting outside of the 3 games that it's mandatory for? (Donkey Kong, Majora's Mask, and Perfect Dark)
>>3082131
expansion pack only affects the games you mentioned
>Is this thing worth getting outside of the 3 games that it's mandatory for?
No
You fuckers need Soa
>>3081427
I agree
>>3081427
Legend of Dragoon was fun most of the way through but fuck if the story wasn't pants on head retarded.
>>3081427
>Soa
Sons of anarchy?
