Show me some good platformers for computers or arcade or whatever - anything but consoles or handhelds. This is somewhat unknown territory for consoletardslike myself. Try to keep it to platforming-platformers, including run and guns etc makes things too easy.

Sell all your non-everdrive/burned games
soon before they become worthless.
>>2789729
Why the fuck would I sell them? I didn't get them to be a reseller hipster.
>>2789729
Video games are art.
Just like Paintings and other forms of art, they will only rise in price until they are worth millions. Give it 100 years or so
>>2789729
Probably around the same time the market for vintage records pops. That's to say, never.
Some guy just found a prototype of Freak Boy at a flea market. There are a few video clips of him playing it here http://www.unseen64.net/2015/10/23/freak-boy-prototype-has-been-found/
Who wants to be he refuses to dump the ROM?
>>2789310
Then nothing of value would be lost. People only want it because they don't/can't have it.
I'm interested in this. I recall seeing a blurry, incomprehensible screencap of this game in a magazine back in the day.
>neverbefore sceen n64 freakboy game. freak boy
I sincerely hope that English isn't this guy's first language.
Lets start a Doom thread.
>doom babies
>>2789206
There's a neverending Doom general here, newfag.
Let's have a Metroid thread.
Started playing Super Metroid and got hard nostalgia tears. That game aged like a good whiskey. Celebrate with me.
- What's your favorite Metroid game?
- What's your favorite ROM hack?
>>2789196
>That game aged like a good whiskey
How does that make any sense? It's no better or worse then back then. Nothing changed. Either it was good to beginn with or not. Some maybe made mistakes that were acceptable back then, but now, so they look bad from today's standards, but shit certainly didn't get better with years.
>>2789215
not really, metroid 1 feels aged like your saggy momma's tits
>>2789225
I'll never understand why people defend this game so arduously, you don't hear Street Fighter fans do the same for the original, and both are equally terrible starters to their respective series despite their innovations.
Holy shit guys this game is fun.
>>2789123
Damn right it is. Treasure does no wrong.
Yeah it's a great game. I just wish it didn't have the McDonald's license so I wouldn't feel so ashamed about having it on my shelf.
M.C. Kids is also actually pretty fun despite being McD-licensed

This seems to be one of the longest running RPG franchises but it rarely seems to get mentioned here.
Out of the five retro parts, four are available in English.
I've started playing the Megadrive port of the first game since it looks the most advanced and is no feature to transfer characters to 2 in any of the other platforms.
>>2789115
I've not played the games but my exposure to the series is this track:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lmY7sd3-0dI
I should definitely get involved. All the music as good as this?
>>2789115
Maybe because most of the ones released here are not retro?
>>2789115
My favorite by falcom is still Y's.
Why the third generation is sometimes considered a better generation than the fourth gen?
Had a lot of firsts
Saved gaming
etc
>>2789030
Is this a common opinion? Most people I know that are in to retro readily admit that most games on the NES are buggy and a bit lifeless and while the Master System had a lot of great games, it seems like it's often not factored into peoples assessment of the 8-bit generation. Of course there are a lot of good and revolutionary games, but the level of quality increased exponentially with the 16-bit generation
>>5276306
Same reason people ever think X instead of Y.
Opinions.
How do you guys feel about the theory Kirby, Pacman, and Metaknight are all members of the same species?
Maybe with Chain Chomps being a close genetic cousin? Analogous to humans and gorillas.

its retarded and probably made by some 12 year old on some obscure forum

...EU or NA version?
How can we get SEGA to release this on a digital service with some fixes for modern systems?
Nobody cares about on-rail shooters anymore.
Modern games like /v/ would heavily complain about how it looks like shit and how it's so old, and it wouldn't sell.
Speaking of PD, I bought the Sega Ages version for PS2, it was a disappointment really, it controls like ass, but at least it has the pandora's box extras from PDII.
>>2788535
Panzer Dragoon Orta on Xbox has a port of the PC version of the original if you play 5 hours/beat the game. I've only ever played PD1 and Orta. I'd like to see all the games re-released somewhere.
I got PD1 running on my PC, but it had no music and I couldn't fix it. Music is so good.
>>2788532
I have a magnet for that OP, if you are interested.
Man this game is some shit.
These niggas tough.
Langrisser thread please?
I really like Langrisser but I'm apparently not good at it, so I don't really have much to say except that I like the character designs.
>>2788501
That Bodybuilder's face is really doing it for me.

Wait, isn't that Cho Aniki?
Today, after 10 years, I've finally found my first console ever, my cousins gave me it when I was 4, it was 2000. Sadly one day my parents had taken it and put it in the basement cause' "videogames are not good, they make you stupid". After 2 relocations the nes was never found and became a sort myth. From those days I've started collecting videogames wondering if I would ever find that pice of my heart. Today it is a great day, it is not about expand my collection (even though there are some gems), it is about return child.
Does /vr/ has a similar...
