They work for most games, but there are a few that don't work because of software region-locking.

Here's a list of games that won't work

Most people who will replace the caps for 50 bucks will also throw in a new drive belt for free.

I actually bypassed the fuse that usually blows the other day. I know it's dangerous to bypass and not replace but let's be real who connects systems straight into the wall nowadays?
Although I will definitely replace it if I ever sell it

>totally wrecking the retro gaming market
In what way? No one is being forced to buy from him, don't like it don't give him money. It's a free market.

Was it orange to reduce burn in?

I've never used a Windows 9x PC that didn't automatically shut off.

>>3231518
The "It's now safe to turn off your computer" screen was there for older PCs with an AT-type power supply. Most PCs made after Windows 95 came out had ATX power supplies with auto shutoff. XP still has this feature and I think Vista was the first version of Windows that no longer supports AT power supplies.

were they

>>3231298
yeah, n64 gamesharks were terribly built hardware, so they fail and brick themselves very frequently, but their actual function is insanely cool and gives you a lot of room for creativity, like making your own codes.

like all this shit the speedrunning community came up with:

>>3231294
Are we talking specifically about N64 ones, because my PS1 and PS2 gamesharks were fuckin aces.

Why don't you just play it?

Why not just play the thing yourself?

Play spiderman its actually bretty gud

>I'm getting genuinely triggered.

Well, I'm sorry to hear that

>>3231141
and why would you use a spyware as an operating system?

>>3231158
Microsoft will drop support for the older os.Its a matter of time.

Historical relevance.

>this may seem autistic
Bingo. Stress? You're choosing a video game. It's not difficult. Pick one that looks fun and interesting. Keep your autism in check.

I play games I liked, but didn't beat in childhood. Then I play games by the same developer. Wanting to know more about a specific genre, I play games that are precursors to this genre.

Not really, not a fan of SatAM either.

It looks like it had potential.

Would've been neat to see the archie characters in a sonic game too. Something that isn't spinball.

>>3230838
I'm all for trying out a new style of gameplay, looks like it might have been a cool game.

>>3230564
>The story is a very average save-the-world affair with no real interesting plot twists
The twist is that it's vastly expanding the Panzer Dragoon mythology from the rail shooters

>The battle system is dead simple and also broken
The battle system is actually super awesome but you're sort of right. After you level to a certain point in any number of methods you become fairly unstoppable. There needs to be a difficulty-up hack but the game checks for game-shark type devices

>The game is short as fuck
So's Chrono Trigger. That's not necessarily bad and there's your standard 40-50 hours if you 100% it.

>I will give the game points for being relatively unique with the dragon-riding mechanic
Yes, it's combat system may not be the most complex and it may not be correctly balanced but it is absolutely unique and the source code for the game has been lost so we're not going to see HD re-releases or rebalanced versions.

Hell, I'd be ecstatic if someone would just come up with a game-shark enable code and a player-attacks-do-XXX%-damage code to make the game more challenging and to feel longer in "playclock" terms, plus it would give better reason to search the entire areas since you'd need to grind a bit. Just something as simple as that could make a very good rare game a GREAT rare game.

because it's expensive

>>3230564

Nostalgia. That's why.

I really don't get why kids even come here or play older games. Like half the threads are stupid shit like this.

>>3230382
I tried figuring out how many their are REALLY but nobody knows for sure

>>3230415
Wait, what exactly do you mean?

>>3230382
Pic related was a solid platformer with lots of exploration and a good challenge. Ocean made a bunch of movie based games and this happens to be one the few that are actually enjoyable.

>>3230369
Now that I think about it, you're right.
How the fuck DID they do that?

>>3230369
you are literally just adding color to a background image. what so impressive about that?

>>3230432
OP mentioned how you can put a pixel of every color on the screen, so I believe he's perplexed about how it managed to work under the color limitation per tile as well as the maximum capacity of the palettes.

If you think something is a newsworthy, backlink to this post as well. Let's make proper OPs since now on together!

>>3230163
Are you the same anon who made that "Master System is most popular Sega system in S. America" thread?

>>3230163
Still not popular enough to save Sega from going bankrupt, though.

>>3230190
Only America matters

I started with Ultima Online. Played it for 7 years +
Only played Ultima VII after that.

I really should try the Underworld games.. they sound really good.

>>3230104
My favorite is a tie between Exodus and Quest of the Avatar on NES. III has an awesome soundtrack, and there's actually an album called Ultima Mix that got released in Japan. It does, admittedly, sound like late-'80s, early-'90s J-pop in a lot of the songs, but there are still a few good ones in there. Here's my favorite one out of the bunch.

>>3230104

The bizarro secret room in the first town in Ultima 7, which you get to by trying to enter a crate that you place north of the south-east most tree. Lord Britain calls you a horrible piece of shit and tries to kill you.
