I've recently acquired a Sony PVM 1350, but I've noticed the RGB slots on the back only say RGB and not RGB/Component. Can I still use Component cables?
>>3054353
You'll need BNC dawg.
>>3054362
I've got BNC to RCA adapters. I get great picture, but there's a green tint.
>>3054371
Adjust the nobs on the front.
You get RGB via a BNC adapter cable.
Populous thread? Populous thread!
In all seriousness though, this is one of those games I have never been able to figure out. First emulated it for SNES and later bought a loose cart for SNES on the cheap at a now defunct local store.Almost bought the DS version, just because I love the idea of the game, even if I can not understand how to play it. Anyone else a fan of Populous? Stories and whatnot are quite welcome.
OP here, I might just not be able to play games by Bullfrog. I have yet to figure out how to get Syndicate to go from the item/mission/stats screen to the actual game as well. Dungeon Keeper as well. The lack of manuals probably was the cause, or my own stupidity. Syndicate Wars was pretty neat however.

It's a fun game, I only recently figured it out, like last year. Haven't played it since though. Have owned it forever, you just are supposed to make things as favorable as possible for your people, and help them flourish as much as you can.
I had both this and Populous 2 on the Atari ST as a kid. As much as I enjoyed the first game, 2 was so much better with the heavily expanded magic and champion systems.
I'm from Europe btw

China. Look at shoptemp for suggestions.
Also not retro.

Any of these sites don't accept my credit card wtf
Did you ever beat this game before it became a meme?
I never actually beat it, I was born in 1991, and grew up with SNES and n64, but I remember when prankcalling gamestops to ask if they had battletoads was a /b/ thing way back in 2008 or so.
Its funny, because meme culture wasn't even a fucking thing back then.
Are there any other games that are this hard in the modern era?
nah, it was too hard. we'd just play TMNT Arcade or the Manhattan one on the NES instead.
What's the best for handheld emulating?
In my (admittedly limited) experience, most handheld emulators are horribly inaccurate junk. Stick to emulation on a real PC, and play actual portable games when you're out and about.
>>3053917
I've been happily using my New 3DS for emulation. I like it more than a PSP.
But I suppose some kind of "android tablet with buttons" thing is going to be way better than either.
>>3053943
Regular size or XL?
Is it comfy?
Are the buttons and d-pad any good?
Do the GB, GBC, and GBA emulators all run at full speed?
So...
This is a game.
>>3053751
So...
Reddit is a site
>>3053753
This thread is far better than that fucking meme thread with the fake new headlines...

So...

Why were there only 3 white blocks in the whole game? And 2 were in the same level! Unless I am forgetting some, that is. And what about Kuribo's Shoe? Confined to a single level. This game is great. but has so much unrealized potential. Why no Hammer Bros suit before World 6? Why only one World with a canoe? Why make coin-ships and anchors so hard to find? Ah, such wasted potential.
Metal Gear, huh?
The good old days when Snake was a legit chain-smoking, drunk asshole instead of the WHY DO I FIGHT~;_; ultrapussy obsessed with saving the innocent that they turned him into in later games.

What's with these guys? It's like one of my Japanese animes!
>German version: Torchy-tier nudity everywhere
>English version: Meticulously painted out
Yet violence against humans had to be changed in Germany e.g. Probotector. Do people de-censor these kind of games? Is that something I should be investing effort into doing? I'm sure I could and I have some minor interest.
German version:

Are you really implying violence against humans is somehow more acceptable than nudity?
>anglos
>>3052667
Why are Germans so inherently degenerate? Do they permanently need a Hitler father-figure to keep them from constantly backsliding into being hedonistic animals?
Why don't you play the game in German?
What are some classic games that you didn't get to play until recently, that you thought would be complete overrated shit but ended up living up to your expectations?
Pic related for me,
That along with FF7 and OoT for me.

I didn't have any interest in PC gaming as a teen, I only had Nintendo games
Once I started playing PC classics a few years ago (from 1987 to ~2002), I can't say I have been disappointed by any of them. Console games I don't have nostalgia for though... I rarely finish one
What was the best Might and Magic RPG ?
Secret of the Inner Sanctum
The Mandate of Heaven. It's what everyone thinks of when they think of Might and Magic.
I absolutely loved Gates to Another World (read M&M II). It felt huge to me back in the day. So much stuff to do.
Just found out our old rundown mall has a Marvel vs. Capcom 2 machine, so I challenged some people at work to a match later today. Problem is I've never played Marvel vs. Capcom 2. Are there any characters I can use to just annihilate the competition?

Yes.
His name is cable.
Just keep spamming his HP, with the occasionally qcf + HP, and with a level of super meter qcf + LP + HP
You'll lose all your friends afterwards, but you can take solace in the fact that you beat them at a Vietnamese interactive movie.
>>3052378
Thank you, I will definitely make use of Cable.
I'm currently thinking Iron Man, Cable, and Dr. Doom
I never liked having friends anyway.

How the fuck does this work??? Saw this on reddit.
Is this the future of retro gaming? Is this how we will play retro games in the future with our oculus rift headsets on? I'm impressed and excited.
I don't care what the nostalgiafags think, quite frankly.
NES games are made from a background layer and a sprite layer.
Before rendering the scene, paint the sprites as a 2D plane in 3D space and draw the background layer as a 3D voxel-like map where colors give the depth information.
Obviously there's guesswork involved but cool nonetheless. Will never be perfect though
>>3052148
>How the fuck does this work?
Probably by giving each sprite layer a depth.
>Is this the future of retro gaming?
No, it looks like shit.
Say no more.
>>3052171
He said he doesn't care about your opinion, nostalgiafag.
your opinion on wood zone
>>3052058
Not at fan, the level design is kind of uninspired andwooden
Not even played it.
