Post recent Garage Sale/Thrift/Good Deals
Pic related, got all of these for 25$ CDN today.
$65 a couple of weeks ago for pic related. I still feel like I over paid. Only thing retro I've gotten since then is Lords of Lore and Abomination big box PC games both complete for $2 each.

Christ are there seriously still people who don't know the value if their stuff? Phantasy Star is $40 alone

Got really lucky, guy was mid 40's. It was his personal collection. Just glad it went to a good home.
Where are all the MTG faggo's?
>turn two=Winter Orb.
The look on peoples faces when that happened.
Also shutting down a grave deck with Grafters Cage+Rest In Peace. That's always awesome.

Somewhere in /tg/ I think?
Wrong board, but fuck do I love stasis decks.

It's not fair bros.
Jurassic Park Trespasser.
>belt scroller guy fuck off edition.
favourite beat em ups.
have been playing Guardians lately. Enjoying it. Also looking for other hacks and bootlegs that run on retroarch.
Unable to get death adders revenge working so far.
2D: AvP forever for me
3D: Die Hard Arcade
The only two I beat-em ups I played at the arcade and still play through MAME.
>>3260196
are you implying guardians is a hack or bootleg?
doing sone rotations of AvP and a little bit of punisher
One of these characters/games is obviously superior to the other in essentially every possible way. Do you know which one?
Dynamite Headdy is better than both, but of those two, Plok is better, the other is a redesign of the original japanese game because westerners can't handle the animus.

Decap Attack is bad ass. Magical Hat is literally some poo in loo with a turban throwing an eggbaby with wings. Decap Attack is a motherfucking mummy throwing his own head at enemies.
Can you guys recommend me PSX games with good world building/plot? Any genre is welcomed.
>>3259430
Tactics ogre
although the writing/ plot/world is much better on the psp remake.
>>3259430
FFT
Threads of fate
Any tomb raider
Valkyrie Profile
>>3259430
Final Fantasy VII's worldbuilding and character drama is legitimately really good. Something I never noticed until I got over, but keep in mind that it's still got a fair amount of FF goofiness and some writing issues here and there.
Seconding FFT and Tactics Ogre. Valkyrie Profile's up there too - the short story-like setup for recruits adds a lot to the world. I thought Dragon Warrior VII's world building was excellent as well, but it's a pretty slow game (aside from combat) which grates people a bit. It's best to play in bursts, going through each story segment at at time and taking a little break.

Can we get a Game & Watch thread going? Did you ever own of the systems? The Gameboy mini releases? The Gameboy collections?
I just got a Mario's Cement Factory mini classic but I think the characters are a bit burnt in. I can't explain it. My Donkey Kong Jr. mini classic plays great.
I like the octopus treasure one, and the pizza delivery truck one.
Also these are not my collections.
>>3259071
Yeah Octopus is great!
It's funny how Nintendo put some Game & Watch stuff in later games (Kanji Sonomama, that cooking software for the DS, GameBoy Camera) also Mr. Game & Watch in Smash. He's my favorite.
>>3259090
I could never own a sweet museum collection like some people. I would just know that one day a nigger would break it and take it all.
Today, I received an rgb cable from retroconsoleaccessories for my SNES. I am getting a lot of horizontal noise on dark/black screens. I have run it through a switch with other consoles as well as directly into my scaler, without change. I even tried a second Super Nintendo.
None of my other cables from them have this issue (they're all crystal clear).
Does anyone else have this issue with SNES? I know there can be audio noise interference but this happens on boot screens as well, with no sound.
I tried to take a picture...but it's difficult to snap moving blue bars on a black screen. I assume you, it's a lot more noticeable in person.
Ground probably not connected.
>>3258776
This one works great for me. The seller drop ships with amazon prime so I got it ~6 hours after I ordered it.

What monitor and SCART-> BNC adapter are you using?
What are some good abandonware games?
>>3258747
All retro games, because they're no longer in print.

Not all retro games are good, retard. You got all smug for nothing.
So I played Turok (the first one) a while back and again realized how awesome it is and how much I miss games like this.
Can anyone recommend me fps games like this? I mean should have big levels to explore, lots of powerups and secret stuff,crazy weapons and enemies and all that(so essentially very videogame-ish). Having to find the keys and Chronocepter pieces was also a big accomplishment.
I even liked the savepoint/extra life system that gave a tough but fair challenge. Anything that comes close to this? I know all the know retro shooters are great but its just not the same when I can save whenever I want and forcing myself to play without quicksave or play on ultra-expert-hard is just not the same challenge I had in Turok.
I even liked the jumping sections, eventhough I hated them, they made sense in that game concept.
Yeah of course I played 2-3, and also liked those.

This fight is a pain in the ass. Use the pedestals as cover for when he goes full flamer mode.
Let's have a thread for retro interviews:

Is there a place to read those without translation?
>>3257316
I don't think so, the guy had to visit a library to scan them.
bump you lazy fats, contribute.
What is the best n64 emulator for galaxy s5, /vr/? Also, let's talk about some of our favorite n64 games. Pic very related.
>>3257114
"Smart"phones and tablets (normie devices) are the LEAST authentic way to do retrogaming.
>>3257193
except for games that dont require fast inputs and are good for mobile, like RPGs
>>3257203
None of the games on the N64 match your criteria then
Is this game worth playing? Or should I just stick to the newer ones?
definitely worth playing.
The beginning is harsh as fuck, it gets a lot easier as it goes on.
>>3257034
its pretty short, but really great
