Where's my gauntlet thread, faggots? Let's play some vidya.
1. Go here http://s3kr.it/gauntlet.html and roll a NES game
2. Complete it within 3 days without a guide or other outside aid (RPGs get a week)
3. Keep the thread informed with screenshots of your progress, within reason
4. Roll for the next console when finished and repeat until you can't bring yourself to gauntlet any more
RULES:
-No savestates
-Failure to complete the game within the allotted time sends you back a console
-Hints from your fellow /v/irgins are allowed
Check http://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/Main_Page for emulator recommendations and most importantly have fun
Also thinking about making some of the /vr/ additions (Gamegear for example) optional, thoughts?

>use the earth crystal to find the boss
Why are you so vague Galivan?
>>344893078
Can't believe I literally completely forgot about these threads. Man, I remember these being daily on /v/ a few years ago, where have the times gone. Now it's more plebs and more shitposting than ever.

Alright fags, this is what I got
>>344894838
It came back a couple of days ago, and going by the catalog /v/ needs it. Just glad I didn't roll something like Die Hard again this time, that game tore my ass up.
>>344894867
The cover looksfunat least.
>>344894838
That's because they're on /vr/ now.
>>344895762
Think it died even there, haven't seen one in ages.
pretty sure you can't actually win this game
>>344893853
The music in this is the only thing maintaining my sanity

Does it have an end date? If not you could always set your own goal.
>>344897132
Yeah you have 3 days.
>>344893078
thanks doc
>>344897132
hang on I figured it out
>>344898427
Legend

Uh
Have no idea what to expect

HOW THE FUCK DO I KILL THOSE RED DEMON FUCKS THAT THROW MORNINGSTARS IN ZELDA II
THIS GAME IS PISSING ME OFF
looks fun
>>344899639
Ouch, are you the guy that rolled it the other day?
>>344899641
>Faria was one of Game Arts' first RPGs, which the company would later become famous for through series such as Grandia and Lunar
lucky roll by the sounds of it
>>344900505
No, I'm another guy
This game is fucking impossible to beat in 3 days
>>344901568
I'd say that comes under the RPG rule and gets a week. Should be more manageable.
>>344901719
Nope, this is home grown /v/ content.
I played Blues Brothers once. It was an awful experience.
I don't want to go back to that torturing game.
>>344896973
>go to this platform on the way to a dead end and use a certain item to open a warp tunnel with no clues
>oh and one of those false walls that npc told you to search for underwater is just another dead end :^)
Fuck you Galivan
Having to learn the controls for this was interesting to say the least but I'm 2/3 done and I'm actually having fun
>>344903126
Is that the one where you can jump between the floor and the ceiling? Awesome game if so, I was lucky enough to roll it last time.
>>344903847
Yeah I didn't even know I could do that until I kept failing on the first stage for 10 minutes
>>344902681
>get near the boss room
>you can fall through the floor and end up back at the start of the area
WHY
>>344903986
Yeah it can be difficult from what I remember but never outright unfair.
got Bionic Commando yesterday, still playan
shit's fun
>furfag spam
>derailing anything
EZ
>>344904984
I just now remember jerking to this exact strip when I was 15, what have I done
>>344899236
>deleted
they wouldnt delete a /v/ gauntlet thread kid
>>344905891
What's with all the game show rolls lately?
>>344905013
Well when I got the basics down it became easier, still I forget that I can switch between roof and floor when it's clearly laid out for me. Especially at boss fights, so I'm probably making it harder by being shit
>>344904532
>fell through the floor twice now
JUST
>>344906931
>finally get to boss
>fucking die
Think that's me for the day
>>344903126
I'm still stuck at stage 4 boss
>>344909602
The one in the rectangle with the 2 beams? and the floaty thing? Focus on the beams first with the powerup, if you have the shield thingy then just die and get a power up instead
On GB/GBC but don't think I can be fucked going back to that gen
>>344910196
Done it. Thanks
Tried to beat Dragon Spirit but having to restart the entire game after 3 deaths is harsh
