What's the verdict on the Mega Man Legacy Collection?
It's shit.
It's great, highly recommended.
That you're paying for actual ROM files and there is absolutely no reason to pay money for the same files you and just go out and download.
If you absolutely have to have a mega man collection, get the Anniversary Collection (PS2 version preferably) That way you also get 7, 8, and the two arcade games.
What do you think of this chart?
Also post charts.

It is a fine chart, skillfully crafted through 1,700 painstaking hours in MS Paint.

Can we get one of these threads going?
Was watching season 10 of Trailer Park Boys last night. Cory and Jacob were playing an N64 with a GC controller and the standard sounds of Pac man 2600.
Wayne's World: Sonic beta
Beethoven: simultaneous 2-player SMB3 (ha), featuring the Power Glove
ITT: weird/obscure commercial expansion packs and mods
Pic related is D!Zone, a series of CD's that were purported to contain a shit ton of levels (mostly around 150, and some between 1000 and 3000). According to the wiki, these numbers were rounded up, included duplicates (separate maps for Doom 1 and Doom 2), often crashed, and were generally just shitty amateur maps.
The company is WizardWorks, they made some more of these weird disks.
Apparently they also made:
>H!Zone for Heretic/Hexen
>Duke!Zone for Duke 3D
>Q!Zone for Quake
They also made F!Zone, an expansion to Fury3. I played it not too long ago, it was fine. It had a kind of level editor, too.
They made a couple W!Zone's for Warcraft 2.
ITT: retro games that were too hard for casual scrubs.
So 95% of pre 5th gen.
>comic zone
>hard
the only "hard" thing was figuring out the rat partner thing and when to use it, like a point and click adventure. Game mechanics weren't hard, the game just felt a bit stiff to play, but great visuals and graphics.

Great visuals AND graphics?

To submit news, please reply to this post.
Reposting my last Dark Arena (GBA) post because I feel compelled to put some work into the sprites since they're a bit small for PC. And I want other people to know about the game so maybe a computer person can see it and actually get all of the graphics out.
>>3134050
>>3134096
Well there's a link to a WAD with textures and sprites in the thread http://www.mediafire.com/download/uv9bqx5ixunq9c4/DARNATEX.wad
I don't know if it's everything though and the lack of a custom palette tells me that these were converting to Doom's palette. They're slightly different.
https://www.sendspace.com/file/frk027 Here's a dump of the sounds in one big wav and the palette in two formats. There's some cheesy explosions, a bad robolady announcer, guns, powerup sounds, and reverberated monsters.
This is probably a long shot, but oh well:
I remember playing a wad back in the day shortly after Doom was released (yeah I'm that old) that modded two things:
>Pick up sound is Ash's "Groovy"
>Shotgun sounded much more brutal, especially the cocking sound
Does anyone know a wad like this? I really want that shotgun sound.
Desktops or towers?
Paper or plastic?
towers

Weird ass obscure game console thread.
>>3129668
Genesis or Turbo Duo?
>>3129698
I see a Megadrive logo on the upper left box, so...
>>3129698
>>3129704
Both and neither. It's a high-end laserdisc player that has a game slot in the bottom left corner, you could put in either of those boxes on the top and you'd then have either a Mega CD or a PC Engine CD.
It also allowed for a handful of laserdisc-enhanced Mega CD games, mostly FMV shit like Road Avenger and Time Gal.
>there was only like 3 good wrestling games
Why.
>>3127661
Pretty sure they made more than 3 Fire Pro Wrestling games.

Start at NES, and work through in the following order:
NES
SNES
GB/GBC OR Sega Game Gear
Megadrive/Genesis
Turbografx16
DOS
NeoGeo
GBA AND/OR Sega Master System
Commodore 64 AND/OR Commodore Amiga
Playstation 1 AND/OR Nintendo 64
MAME AND/OR Dreamcast
You have three days to complete the game without assistance (each game gets three days, though RPGs are allowed a week due to length). Select your system here:
http://s3kr.it/gauntlet.html
You can also do it manually if you don't trust the random number generator:
http://s3kr.it/systems/
AND BRING ME SCREENSHOTS PARKER
Rules:
1) Savestates are allowed ONLY for the purpose of taking screenshots and ONLY if your emulator/game in question does not have a pause function.
2) Rerolls are allowed under the following conditions:
The game you get requires some sort of hardware functionality that cannot be accurately emulated to complete (eg, Boktai)
The game would otherwise require cheats, hacks, or alteration of the software to complete due to a bug (eg, Cheetahmen II)Or just fucking reroll you cheating faggot. You know you will
3) Playstation 1 games can be given up to 2 weeks to complete if the game is more than 2 discs.
4) If you lose / give up to a game you have to go back one square instead (ie if you gave up a Genesis game, you go back to GB/GBA and continue from there)
5) For Rule 4, if the game you fail is on the same path as another console, you have the choice to roll for that console instead of dropping down a level.
For games that have a high score or no end, the rule is:
If no high score has been established, set a goal and beat it
if you're playing something another anon already has a high score on, beat their high score
If you are playing extended rpgs/pokemon/whatever you get a week [Depending on the game needs to be asked in thread]
Oh, and try not to post screenshots every other screen; make them few and meaningful.
Let's do this shit.

How could one man be so based, /vr/?
>>3123715
>treated third-parties like shit
>fired their best inventor after just one failure, the VB
>thought that N64 should have cartridges
>didn't want GC to have standardized online capability
How was he based again?
>>3123737
Said this in the other thread but.
>>3123805
>fired their best inventor after just one failure, the VB
No. Gunpei didn't leave the company right after the Virtual Boy, he left in 1996 after designing the Game Boy Pocket which was the last project he worked on. He felt he should stay with the company longer even though he already had plans to leave, since he felt he owed it to the company to design at least one more successful product to make up for the Virtual Boy's failure. Also he wasn't fired from the company, he resigned.
>>3123737
>thought that N64 should have cartridges
The N64 was shit, but cartridges were not to blame. Most of the problems of modern gaming can be directly blamed on CDs.
How'd Sega manage to get someone as big as Michael friggin Jackson to help out on the Sonic 3 soundtrack?
They had already collaborated in a genesis and an arcade game. And then this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pnCvZ-yBOs
>>3127606
>as big as Michael friggin Jackson
Because by the 90s he needed the money to pay off all the kids he fondled.
Are they trolling?
would fuck that goblin
>>3124243
Look closer at where all the wires go, retard.
>>3124253
They plugged in the white cord (left channel) of the RCA, into the RF out on the back of the NES.
