I own a special edition Pikachu N64, it's not factory sealed but it comes with the box, the console, the controller, the HYP game, and the manuals. How much do you think it'd go for?
Bout 350
Couple of Franklins bruh
I don't know but good lord is that thing ugly. The color scheme is neat but the giant Pikachu sticking out of the top just ruins it.

Who wanta some Wang?
Is this the game that inspired John Romero to make us suck it down in Daikatana?
Level design is pretty shit. And honestly like the humor/style of duke way more but alot of the weapons here are really cool, the gamein general feels alot faster and the sword is a much better quick attack than the boot. Overall pretty good.
I'm just working through Wonton Destruction now and the level design is somehow even worse than the core game. Also these little ching chong bad guys are annoying as fvck
Which were better... LucasArts or Sierra adventure games?
LucasArts
What is more fun, walking a straight line or climbing a vertical wall?
History will remember Lucasarts as being about quality, whereas Sierra was about Quantity.
I grew up with both, games like Dark Forces, Sam & Max: Hit the Road, and Space Quest.
Sierra failed due to poor management, Lucasarts got the short end of the stick on a tedious deal at best.
So, i am really interested in arcades and thought of the best way to play some nice arcades on my crt with an arcade stick.
At the end i just figured that a rasberry pi would be the best.
I'd just buy one, put mame and all the games i want to on it and than simply go for some gaming.
But will it be that easy?
What do i have to keep in mind when i try to build my machine?
Does a HDMI to Scart converter producea big input-lag or will it be okay?
How easy is it to actually Programm the raspberry?
How much space should the SD-cart have at least?

I use a Pi for all sorts.
To get around the SD card limiations I just got an old USB hard-drive (with a power cable) and put the whole OS on that. No need to worry about read-write limits now. All you need to do is copy the OS to the HDD, then set the partitions to point to the right place. Leave the SD as /boot though.
It`s slow and will limit what games can be played. Some arcade games need a lot faster hardware.
>>3013316
Sorry mate, but I never used mame, nor a raspberry or anything. This would be like the very first time i try to something like this and i am a fucking idiot.
So could you please explain to me what you mean with OS?
And what are the read-write Limits you are talking about?
What are the right places to setthe partitions?
>>3013329
what would you suggest instead?
I also got an old Computer in my Basement, that i used to playgames with around 2010.

Your opinion on Takeshi's Challenge?
Challenging
a unique console game that was kinda before its time, but its also a total bullshit game in every way possible
meme game
For me, SDD and SoR.

Care to help a fellow anon? :(
Game works perfectly fine except when I go underwater. The screen turns pitch black and I can't see jackshit. I managed to pass some parts where you can feel how/where to dive, but I'm stuck in the "A tenuous Lead, Scene 5" part, when I have to escape the boat. I can't beat the game like this.
Nothing in google that I can find to fix the issue, only thing people is saying it's a common problem with intel cards.
Rig:
Asus X555LJ
i7 5500U
Nvidia GeForce 920m + Intel HD 5500

I don't know much about PC games, but I got Grim Fandango to work on my Windows 7 by running it through a Windows 98 combatability mode or something.
Sorry I'm not much help.
well, did you try using your integrated intel graphics?
I started playing this for the first time some days ago (pc anniversary edition) and I got hooked really fast. At the beggining I thought it was a really good rpg but about 9 hours in I can't play anymore.
While the graphics are great, the music is really lame, you are going through a cave filled with monsters with the happiest music ever. Also it's linearity is killing me and I can predict what's gonna happen in the story pretty easy. The combat system looked fantastic at first sight but the fights are easy as fuck and you end up with a gazillion coins...

You've nailed it, it does not get better.
>>3013047
OP here, could you guys recommend some RPGs, I had a craving for a good RPG and this one disappointed me.
How about the firts one, it's worth playing?
>>3013072
Give it up. None of them are any good.
Does /vr/ know that box?
I assume this is similar to the magnavox.
Grandstand something something
>>3013034
nice drum machine, faggot.
I've just finished FF1 and I was wondering if I should skip 2, I'm not a big fan of "the more you use it the better you get" system ala Elder Scrolls. Is it similar to that? Worse?
Well these games have barely any story and the gameplay is very basic. So yeah, sure, whatever, come back in a few years maybe.
only retro final fantasy worth playing is tactics anyway
If you don't like Elder Scrolls interpretation of it you definitely won't like it in FFII. It DOES have a job system though, like 5 and the current pop icon, Tactics.
Hi there guys, im about to buy what will be my last retro console, the Sega Dreamcast.
Dreamcast is for me the consolidation of an era, a 128bit power machine, within the 5th generation, the best generation of consoles (Ill not discuss my point of view right now we can do it later).
What are the main considerations I have to watch before buying my new system?
Those are my keys:
I live in PAL territory, here where I live I can take one for 60€ more or less.
I want to run "backup" games, the legend tells that de Dreamcast can Run...

Thanks for your attention BTW!
Yea they all run CD-Rs by default, and the ISO uploading community provides really quality files that you just put in and play. Check out the isozone.
>>3012823
Nice one, yeah I check isozone almost daily, great page. Thank you so much!

What is the best way to play Blood? Or should I just play the original?
>>3000656
I've played the original enough times.
Been experimenting with the latest version of BloodCM. It's not too bad. It's not perfect, of course.. but we'll never get a perfect port without the source code.
>>3000705
the original is fine I just hate that I can't mouselook at all. Maybe I'm just used to doom
>>3000804
Have you tried bmouse? It makes the mouselook much better.
Hey /vr/
Are there any good japanese exclusives for ps1 that aren't hugely text based that you would recommend?
Platformers etc.
Pic related, Parodius - which was released in Europe but PAL is shit.
>>3012546
Panzer Bandit is a pretty fun brawler.
Learn the language before you miss out on fun.
>>3012551
You seriously think I'm going to spend years learning Japanese just to play video games?
What does /vr/ think of these video upscalers? What are the pros and cons of using them? What are the good brands and models?
posting cause also interested
>>3012531
They tend to trash the colors. Only worth using if you have literally no other choice outside of new hardware.
>>3012545
What do you mean 'trash' the colours? Do they still make analogue signals look better on HDTVs?
