What are your fav SNES rpg games
I'm curretly playing trough Pic Related
>>3219505
I dont have fav games.
Right now playing through FF2 although I may drop it since I dont find FF games fun anymore.
>>3219519
Why dont you like them anymore?
>>3219526
The story is what kills me.
Its pretty much obvious that they are making shit up as the game progresses to keep the player engaged and rack up +40h which is fine and all but it doesn't cut it for me anymore.
Ive played and finished FF1,FF3 and FF4 I think Im done with this franchise.
Was Parasite Eve the original Final Fantasy 7? I know storywise it is a loose sequel to the book of the same name but virtually everything else reminds me of what Hironobu Sakaguchi wanted FF7 to be in his original drafts. The whole New York motif and the detective job it's all there. Even the characters from PE resemble characters from FF7 (Aya=Cloud, Daniel=Barret, Eve=Jenova, Klamp=Hojo). It just seems like too close of a connection to be coincidental. Is Parasite Eve the very game that shows us what FF7 could've been it seems too big to just have taken small influences...

No. The development for FF7 is widely documented and what you've presented is totally false conjecture.

According to Tetsuya Nomura, the series creator Hironobu Sakaguchi originally "wanted to do a detective story" with the first part involving a "hot-blooded" character named "Detective Joe", in pursuit of characters after they had blown up the city of Midgar. Many staff members chose instead to work on Chrono Trigger, and development was halted. - Final Fantasy Wikia
There was a character who was supposed to be a detective named Joe. While Joe as a character personality/desgn wise...

Yeah, I think I've read about this in the FF Ultimania guide. Sounds plausible, too, seing as devs reuse assets and ideas all the time.
Is there an SD card reader for the PSX or PS2? I know there's one for the Saturn and Dreamcast.
>>3219409
There is for both of them.
PS2 is not related to this board.
>>3219415
Is the PSIO the only one?
>>3219409
"SD card reader" is misleading. There is a specific device for Dreamcast called SD card reader and they're not really for loading games.
GDEMU for Dreamcast and Rhea/Phoebe for Saturn are ODEs that happen to use SD cards for storage. There's also USB-GDROM which is also an ODE but uses USB devices.
If you want an ODE for PlayStation, then the only one atm is PSIO. Most people don't mind installing a modchip and burning games.
For PS2, you can get FMBC and load games over...

Namco Shmups
How come the company that gave us Galaga and Bosconia made so few shooting games in its life time?
Why is this game so goddamn good?
what
The GBC port is decent? I could see it I guess.
>>3219352
It's Zelda with a more complex plotline full of cyberpunk and time-travelling and japan, more fluid controls, multiple time periods, and great graphics and music.
Will there ever be a chance of seeing a graphically updated donkey kong country 2 (or 1 or 3)? Gameplay would be identical, but I'd love to see updated 3D rendered backgrounds and sprites.
Just use a CRT TV, they still look stunning when the resolution isn't stretched to hell by modern screens.
>>3219219
>It looks great when it's blurry!
You people never give up.
Pixels as is look better already than it ever would in HD. Those models were not attractive in high res.
I doubt it. Nintendo typically only does remakes / updated ports when it's relatively easy for them. All the original uncompressed assets from those games are long gone.
Do you have a favorite Mega man game?
Mine is Darkwing Duck
Stinkoman 20X6
Whomp 'Em
The best and cheesiest opening. Still good after 20 years.

Is soul edge any good? I've played all the callibur games but for some reason I never played edge. None of my friends had it, and I have never seen it at an arcade.
You're not even trying man.

I thought that would be cheating.

If our demands aren't met by rape o'clock
well you know the rest
>>3218959
They'll tickle her to death? Oh no..
ok /vr/ think of a retro series that:
>Under performed financially, leading to early cancellation
>Didn't get as much love as it deserved and died off in obscurity
>Never really got that true sequel it really needed
And consider if in some bizarro worldit had gotten raped into a franchise with yearly or near-yearly releases and had as many entries as Final Fantasy, Mario, Sonic, etc
What would it look like today?
>>3218879
Vagrant Story 2, combat is actually based around rhythm, timing and distance. And weapon switching done via hotkeys and not endless menus.

>Under performed financially, leading to early cancellation

Alex Kidd would be to Sonic like Kirby is to Mario, a secondary mascot with no real bad games under his belt, also the janken mini games would die out or stay a small gameplay feature, like the card games in Mario 3. also I think that the exploration and shop mechanics might have been fixed and expanded upon... I put way to much thought...

I think Bonk could have made a great transition to a manic 3D platformer and could have kept its relevancy in modern times as a zany video game parody series.
I'd really like to play Bonko Fantasy, Bonk of War and Bonk of Cootie: Prehistoric Warfare.
Once there was an arcade game made using actual rock music from the band Aerosmith. It had ports to both the SNES and Genesis.

Cut down the arm, not across OP. Easy mistake to make but you'll get it eventually.

oh look it's this thread again. Sage.
Is there a game like Ice Climbers, but better?
Ice Climber.
Ice climber is as good as it gets
Rainbow Islands.
Why this game is so piss easy?
>>3217702
Because real the Megaman on SNES is Megaman X.
>>3217712
I like the X series, but i wanted to play someting new out of boredom. But playing this game is like waiting wait your face next to a buffalos ass and recieving a huge load of fecal matter.
Which Mega Man other than Mega Man & Bass is hard?
E Tanks make those games too easy, most of them are perfectly playable without E Tanks, save for a few moments.
Post your top 5 retro games. If you want, explain why.
Post them here only so my taste can be called shit and the games overrated?
Nah.
>>3217661
Why the fuck would you post a list of games WITHOUT explaining why? I could write a fucking bot that could do that. There wouldn't be anything interesting or informative about it.
>>3217664
You're absolutely right. You should never talk to anyone or go outside or anything because there's a small chance someone might say something bad about you. Which is obviously the worst thing that could happen to anyone because you're clearly a genius with excellent tastes.
