Post retro games that are still 10/10

Eh, Nintendo games are the only old games that are even still playable, even Rare's have aged badly
So, /vr/, can we have a nice retro/borderline retro gaming PC thread?
Post your rigs, brag about specs/backward compatibility ect.
Well a twin Tualatin 1.4 GHz S server board with DDR, an ISA slot for old sound card and a GeForce FX 5950 would pretty much be the ultimate retro PC.

>twin Tualatin 1.4 GHz S
Aaand here comes Win 98 with no multi-cpu support. 2k/XP is okay-ish option, but it left much to be desired in compatibility department.
It could be a nice retro server though.
>>3291063
You could always dual-boot for older games. Doesn't matter if one of the CPUs is temporarily sitting idle.
Hey guys, did you hear?
I'M BACK.

1 Megabit was pretty small by '91 standards. Or did you meant 1 Megabyte (as in 8 Megabit)?
>>3289623
I hear there's a secret room that no one has discovered yet!
Lets discuss the best waifus of each console. I'll start with PSX.
>>3288238
>>3288238
I'll end with the best waifu among every platform.

Where the fuck are her pants?
Thoughts on Mega Man Legends?
Above average.
I think it's one of those games where, from a gameplay perspective, it's lacking, but in terms of charm, atmosphere, and flavor, it's top notch.

I loved it as a kid, but I can see how someone who didn't play it when it was new would hate it now.
You're in the garage and these guys punch your girlfriend in the stomach. What do you do?

That hussy was just asking for it, dressing like a Jezebel.
Paciently wait them to leave in their bikes, then I open up the garage's door and start beating people randomly
ITT: Cool, lesser-known Famicom games that weren't released in the US.
Astro Fang is a great driving game that controls similar to Rad Racer, but you can fire missiles and transform into a faster car, at the expense of some handling. There are branching paths, and a shop where you can buy new weapons, like wheel spikes.
Can confirm. pretty comfy game. Played this game on an emulator only because the name sounded cool.
>>3286573
Actually looks pretty cool.

There exists a weird Monopoly-esque game themed after Mega Man characters. Only in Japan
Sup /vr/. I'm going to play every single Ultima game (including the Ultima Underworld, Savage Empire, and Martian Dreams) in order.
1. Has anyone here done this? Any advice before I start out?
2. What's the in-universe chronological placement of the two Worlds of Ultima games?
I bet you don't finish one game.
>>3285167
Why? I've played 4 and 6 all the way through before.
In-universe chronological order is simply release order for everything up to 9, spinoffs included. As for advice, the main one is that really 1-3 aren't worth playing.
Do you guys still think the PSP is a versatile Emulation/PS1 device even after 10 years?
Not for SNES, but I use it for anything else 2nd, 3rd, 4th gen and some arcade stuff like cps.
We have a PSP thread like every week
>>3283257
for PS1:
it's great for anything that doesn't use L2/R2, otherwise its shit.
For SNES: all your favorite games have massive slowdown like Donkey Kong Country.
for NES: pretty great
for SEGA/CD: perfection
>>3283257
Best for the price. But some emulators have major-to-minor frame drops or screen tearing.
I also don't like the screen's resolution. 240p stuff doesn't fit on it well without blur.
Because of that, I wouldn't consider it the end-all handheld emulation device.
Images from old games that trigger you.
I'll start with a classic.

I liked that fight. When I was a kid it took me forever to figure out how to beat him. And when I did, it was an accident.
Anyway, as I said in a different thread, the sun from SMB3 used to bother me.
this used to frighten me when i was younger

Is it me or is the SA group the only one doing the translations anymore? It also seems like they've slowed down a lot.
Got into this series recently. It's pretty good. Them trying to beat Adventure Island was a treat.

Wasn't there an Ecco 2 for the Megadrive?
Barcade New Haven, CT. I think I'm in love. Anyone go regularly? Just went yesterday and I'm ready to make this a weekly visit.
No pins?
Dropped.

I live 30 minutes from Galloping Ghost.
There are a couple in new york, one is nearby but I never go there.
What if Sega reskinned NiGHTS and Reala to be Super Sonic and Super Knuckles, while the two kids where regular Sonic?
WOULD SONIC INTO DREAMS SAVE THE SATURN IN THE WEST?
>>3295965
It would be blasted as a shitty spinoff and given a 3/10
>What if Sega reskinned NiGHTS and Reala to be Super Sonic and Super Knuckles, while the two kids where regular Sonic?
Warm outside.
>>3295965
You realize on the Christmas nights disc you can play as sonic and go through the nights levels and boss fight first boss... And no it didn't save the Saturn or even get enough attention for them to make it a full game.
