Anyone else tried this, or know if it's even worth? I've memorized hiragana k-n but for some reason it's taking me more than a week to remember the other half? Any tips or methods?
why the fuck do you need text for a soccer and a fighting game?

This is the best RPG of all time. Prove me wrong.
Can't be very good if I've never heard of it before.

I'm not sure about this
Have you ever played this game?
I remember playing it with a kid. I didn't know wtf I was doing and I would just button mash until I got the character to the exit. Needless to say I didn't get very far.
Now that I am an adult I really like puzzle games like this, where you have to move objects and whatnot to find an exit.
I'm thinking about playing it again since I have all my old Game Boy games.
Any fans of Kwirk here or similar puzzle games?
I remember him from the Power Team cartoon.
Kwirk is an underrated game for sure. It has a catchy soundtrack and the puzzles generally have the right amount of challenge... until the last stages on Level 3 which are brutal. I don't think I got to around 3-5 before I just couldn't solve them anymore.
I'd be interested in trying the 2 player mode, but goddamn what are the chances I'll ever meet someone else with a game boy, link cable, and fucking Kwirk?
>>2873439
Came here to post this. He was literally the only character I didn't recognize from a game.
And thanks to OP, I'm going to give it a shot.
How to git gud at Panel de Pon?
>>2872054
Play vs. a shit ton. No other way to get the 'eye'. Keeping playing until you can cream the computer even on Super Hard. The SNES in hindsight has really bad AI, but it doesn't seem like that until you're good enough.

My girlfriend kicks my ass at Tetris, but I'm far superior at this game. I guess we're even.
>>2872094
You and your GF should play The New Tetris, the only Tetris variation worth a damn (I don't count TA as a Tetris game because they don't share anything in common besides being puzzel games). It may help level the playing field. The added mechanic is trying to create perfect squares with 4 tetraminos, bonus points if they are all the same piece.
Good deals thread
I love people who don't realize that many, many, MANY things are worth substantially less today than they were when they were new. I remember just the other night reading an ad where some guy was talking about how much he paid for some of his laserdisc stuff like it is in any way relevant.
>>2866946
some of them are worth money tho
I paid $50 each for 2 rare laserdiscs
>>2866961
How much did those cost when they were new?
Hey /vr/, I'm playing through Planescape Torment for the first time, and I'm a bit overwhelmed.
Any tips/advice you guys could give me?
>>2865727
Actually, yes. One thing I didn't notice at first was the map function. Walk around a new area of the city, and open your map. It lays out the entire area with markers showing the names of locations and stuff like that. It's really useful to just walk in a circle in the city to get the map so it is less overwhelming.
Other than that, just do some side quests and talk to people. It gets a lot less overwhelming once you understand the city (there are only 4 or 5 main areas that are easily mapped)
Same here senpai spent hours in the crypt, game's gonna take awhile.
Same here senpai spent hours in the crypt, gonna take a while to finish this I reckon.
RTS games all the best rts games seem to fit into retro now so lets have a thread on it. Starcraft, Red Alert 2, Warcraft 2, Dune 2000, Settlers iii, AOE 1/2 and more.

Dark Reign
Total Annihilation
Seven Kingdoms
Warlords Battlecry

Starcraft & Brood War are once again getting reworked into their open source remake Stargus. With added editing capabilities and game enhancements, this could perhaps make the game attractive not only for online playing with friends, but also for new and more complex fan campaigns.
>>2865153
Stargus in action. Now with proper keyboard shortcuts and building health bars.
What does /vr/ think about Lunar: Eternal Blue?

Spellcross. Anyone played it? Your thoughts on this game
>>2849546
Looked at the wiki article. Contemporary earth with fantastical creatures.
Go on...
>In Spellcross, a contemporary Earth military fights for survival against an extradimensional invasion of orcs, undead, harpies and other fantastical creatures.
was the GATE anime based on this game
I didn't think I see the day when someone would make a post about Spellcross that wasn't me.
I'm making a DOOM was allowing access to the Forces of Darkness/Other Side as new demons (see video and screenshot)

I have an old FFVII disk. I want to fucking play it. I got to Bugenhagen, but the game freezes up in the middle of his speech every time. I tried cleaning it with water and toilet paper, but that did nothing. I tried resetting the PS2 a bunch of times; nothing. I don't want to buy a new disk because even used copies are like 30 dollars. I'm prepared to try anything to fix this, since the alternative is throwing it out. Tell me the arcane secrets of disk cleaning, /vr/. You're my only hope.
>>2872715
The fucking thread..AGAIN?!?!
>>2872728
I've never made this thread before.
>>2872715
You can pick up that game for 9.99 at any retro game store or half price books.
Also use a lighter. Hold it far away from the scratch you want fixed and slowly warm it up until the plastic melts ever so slightly and becomes uniform. Don't do this if you're retarded and don't understand heat though, you'll warp the disc and you're fucked.
Want to play Donkey Kong Country 2 with my friend in Sweden.
We have the same ROM and emulator. (ZSNES Version 1.42)
I followed this tutorial: http://148.251.22.76/newnet/en/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=392&Itemid=324
Entered port number it gave on the website, but our game doesn't work. Anyone know what we're doing wrong?
Also, Netplay thread.
>>2870347
Uncheck the Use UDP thing.
>>2870347
Whichever one of you is the server probably needs to have that port open on your router to allow incoming requests.

He can play it by leaving his house
Fighting Games Thread ..... GO !
Virtua Fighter 2 is a masterpiece and the best 3D /vr/ related fighting game by light years.
fighting games are shit
>>2869839
Another great post on /vr/
The music sounds a lot more energetic on sega,for snes its low quality music.the graphics look a lot more colorfull on sega with with a bigger contrast between colors,unlike snes where it looks blury. Most Genesis games run at a higher resolution than SNES games which means Genesis graphics are sharper with better details while everything is stretched on SNES. Add to this that the Genesis has a better RGB output than the SNES for an even better picture on Genesis.
I'll fight you IRL!!!
I'm not sure why this warranted a thread, but yes.
I don't like the genesis' music as much. Somehow, I feel like I'm in the minority on this.
Why do people keep buying this junk thinking it's the real deal? That's infuriating. So many Facebook kids think now it's how a Megadrive sounds like.
Because it is available.
>>2867890
Who gives a shit? Different units sounded different already. Your classic Genesis sound could well be different from mine already. It really doesn't matter so long as someone is having fun with games.
>>2867901
I think you vastly underestimate how terrible that clone is. Look it up.
What are some good Star Wars retro games? I just saw my first Star Wars movie last night anf it was pretty good so now I'm wondering about the franchise.
Play the Famicom emulation. It is superb. Trust me.
Star Wars (1983 arcade game)
