Only 90's kids get it.

the most fun part of FF7 is arguably just exploring the town and dungeon screens and playing minigames and solving puzzles and shit. they packed a heck of a lot of stuff into those areas.
if it had a fixed number of encounters that occur at specific points on each screen that would probably make it a lot better.
OP, do you like rpgs? You probably don't like rpgs.
So yesterday I found my old nes, but i doesn't have the a/v cable. It uses this port. I've nevee seen it and can't find it on google, is it hard to find?
>>3086974
That is not an NES
>>3086974
That looks like a genesis
>>3086974
Do you know what a Nintendo Entertainment System looks like?
diablo 1 psx + sabr filter looks like a trippy painted version of the game

Man, so I finished the PSP port of Star Ocean 2 today. I had been playing it for awhile and I have to say everything about it really blew me away and I got super immersed in the story and character building, definitely left me wanting more. I had always had the PSX version growing up but never bothered playing it. The addition of voice acting in this one (I played it undubbed) really made it for me.
I heard 3 and 4 weren't very good, would you recommend them or would I just be let down? I know the series doesn't go on direct continuity, the only character in...

Star Ocean 4 was an abomination. I don't think there has been such uninspired dungeon design in any RPG since SO4 came out.
>>3094827
How was 3? Does it have any relevance to 2's plot at all?
God 2 was so fucking good I can't believe it.
>>3094835
I liked 3 when it came out but not played it since. I don't remember it being related though.
Prepare yourself /vr/trooper, for you are about to enter the realm of digital retro gaming kombat!
Choose your equipment according to the template. Please keep gear /vr/ related and please refrain from choosing generic items like 'a katana' or 'a steel helmet'. A good example would be 'Masamune from FFVII' and 'Dragon Helm from FFIV'.
You can fill in the boxes with art or just text, whatever you feel comfortable with.
Have fun and let the kombat begin!

Contributing with my setup:
"High Speed Low Drag Operator".
Godly Plate Of The Whale for my plate armor. The Bunny Hood from Majora's Mask for speed and tacticool maneuvers. Aya's M4A1 from Parasite Eve 2 with the javelin laser attachment for close to mid range precision and mag-dumps. The Grandfather great sword to unzip and unsheathe as my melee weapon, go to town cutting down foes with bonus to hit. And finally the ribbon from FFVII as an obvious choice for protection from negative status effects.
>>3092763
I'm just a generic mage with the Gran Grimoire from tactics advance entering the fray.
My accessory 1 is an elixir, resized it too small in gimp but whatever.
>>3092849
The mental image of this made me chuckle, nice.
When did you go retro, /vr/?
I mean, at what point in your life did you decide to start playing old games again?
For me it was during 5th gen, around 1997 or so. I had N64, Saturn and PS1, as well as a PC, so I had mostly forgotten about the previous gen games and didn't use my SNES and Genesis anymore, I think the last time I used my SNES back then was in 1996 when DKC3 came out and then went back to play new stuff.
But sometime in 1997 I got the urge to play not 4th gen, but 3rd gen (well, just Famicom, or "Family Game" as it was known in my...

When modern games killed video games with the 6th generation and later.
I went back and started with a bunch of old PC games at first. Later in 2007-8 I started with consoles again.
>>3090784
>again
I never stopped.
>>3090791
This.
Also, I don't care if a game is retro or not. I like playing games.
Whilst clearing some stuff out of my Mrs parent's house we stumbled across a Spectrum with about 40 games. Implying it works, what is it worth? What should I be aware of when selling it?
Wow nice find brother!
Even a used but good condition spectrum can still fetch thousands of dollars on a good day!
Even rare good condition tapes are worth a fue hundred each as tape rot has killed most of the games :(
>>3094027
>hi everyone, reseller here
>please do my research for me while I enjoy my Easter Sunday
>>3094027
That's a nice find!
Enjoy your new Spectrum :-)
Do you like this game?
I FUCKING LOVE IT!!!!
I liked it's sequels more.
>>3096776
Cute games. Princess Honey is CUTE
Why don't they make games like this anymore? Survival horrors that rely on exploration and puzzle solving rather than sp00py corridors and jomp scares. It's why I wasn't too excited for Silent Hills anyway.
Cue NESfag in 3...2...1...
I want the babby's to stop call RE a survival horror.
>>3096720
Hey fetus, can you explain what survival horror means to you then?
Which version is the best one to get? Also, which version offers the best selection of games that aren't too text heavy?
I'm thinking of picking one up soon and any information would help me with my decision.
Thanks.

Thanks for the list
Is Crystal the color version or are they entirely separate? Are games backwards compatible with each system?
>>3096447
Crystal is just a revised color. Yes all backwards compatible.

Two face buttons are identical?
Anyway, I can imagine playing Activision Decathlon would be bad on it.

Based on its appearance and your grammar, it seems more like a Dendy-esque machine to me.
I remember that one hot summer day I got so mad i did this to my controller
>>3092471
not even once

I would just shut it off and do something else. Rage quit many times as a child though.

One time I got so mad at Super Mario Land on the gameboy that I smashed my gameboy on the floor and it just totally broke.
