hold up and repeatedly tap B while trying to catch a Pokemon.
Don't blame me, everyone I knew did it.

So, I own some other consoles, but i dont own anything sega related yet, even tho I wanted to have a sega for quiet a time.
I already got some Information elsewhere, but before i buy one i just wanted to ask what /vr/ thinks?
I am personallyin favor of the megadrive as it is pretty cheap in genereal and has some decent games.
What do you guys think? Any other recommendations?
Genesis is the best system to collect for since it's so inexpensive. The Dreamcast would be second, and everything else is relatively pricey.
>>2942841
I don't think the cost of the games for a retro system should be a deciding factor in its quality, since it's so easy (and in my opinion, ethical) to pirate retro games and play them on the original hardware.
My vote right now would have to be for the Dreamcast, but Saturn has a lot of games I'm interested in that I haven't played yet, so maybe my vote will eventually switch to the Saturn.
>>2942854
These were the 2 i actually thought about as well.
Are there any positive or negative reasons for/against the mega drive/Dreamcast?

Which is the best part of Dancing Mad?
I'm voting for the part in the fourth movement where it goes silent for a second, then a lovely organ sequence begins. Black Mages did a great cover of it.

Oh shit, forgot it's got a slow start. The heavy stuff starts at the 2 minute mark.
I have a Playstation and PsOne, and decided I want to play backups and imports since my toaster laptop sucks at emulation. I have a few questions though.
1. How hard will a modchip be to install for someone who has never soldered before?
2. Is there a reason to get one for my Playstation instead of my PsOne or vice versa?
3. Will playing cd-r's absolutely rape the lasers, or are there optimized backups like the Dreamcast?
Thanks guys.
if you get the PSX instead of the PS1, it'll be easier to balance it on it's side when it fails to read disks properly.
>>2941669
I don't have a PSX.
Bump for interest.
Recently picked up the phone/mini screen combo and I love it. Makes those hideously aged graphics look delightful.
Explain us modchaps.

Do you think it's okay to criticize people playing RPGs without an optimized party?
You mean criticize people for having bowser and mellow in party?
No
>>2940537
BUT THE STRATEGY GUIDE I GOT FROM NINTENDO SAID BOWSER IS A KEY MEMBER.
Optimized party? Like a healer, the bruiser, the mage, and your second damage dealer? Not really. Some people like to play different ways so it's whatever. Final Fantasy NES is a good example where you don't have to chooe the optimized party, but any other party in that game besides the Default or Optimized is pretty much "Choose your handicap"

It includes PJ64 fully up to date and more. It includes Azimer's, Angrylion's, GLideN64, and z64gl (purplemarshmallow fork).
If you wanna play World Driver Championship, use z64gl and Azimer's.
So basically it's project64 with some improvements and no malware bullshit? Excellent, how stable is this?
>>2937654
>Excellent, how stable is this?
Not stable at all, to be honest. It won't BSOD you, but PJ64 is in a rather unstable state right now. It refuses to boot for some people, and it will crash if you press F12 immediately after booting a game and stuff like that.
But yea, basically, free of malware and with some extra bits and bobs vanilla PJ64 doesn't include.
why can't I get angrylion's plugin to work? I always get a 'rdp_conf.bin no found' or 'unidentified microcode' error.
I recently bought pic related, primarily so that I could sit back on my couch and play the original 2 DOOM games on my Ps3. I have played DOOM before, and although the BFG edition controls like a dream and seems to be largely untouched, It sounds like absolute ass. The guns sound like they are underwater, the enemies are almost silent (including Imps and fireballs), and music is negligible. It is like watching The Simpsons after it has been dubbed over by french voice actors. Anyone else have this issue? Can it be fixed?
>>2942556
I never noticed any of these playing them. Its not 100% like the originals, but i hardly noticed a major difference in sound like you are describing.
>>2942615
This is major. If the actual game wasn't such an enjoyable experience I wouldn't be playing it because of the sound. I'd play it on PC, but the controls on Ps3 are much more comfy
>>2942632
So use your DS3 on pc
What are some 480i/480p retro games?
Virtua Fighter 2 on Saturn
Resident Evil 2 on N64 (it alternates between 240 sometimes)
>>2942317
forgot to add, besides dreamcast, it would make the thread pointless
>>2942325
Besides IBM PC as well? Because there's a ton of 640x480 games for DOS and Windows.
FM Towns had it as the default resolution though a lot of ports had letterboxing.
MS DOS probably holds the award for most nostalgic games
>Shadows of Darkness
I have very vague but very fond memories of this game. I was super young and would watch my brothers play it. One thing I remembered in particular was the little girl and her monster friend, and the guy who hung himself. When I was little, I remember my brothers laughing their asses off at this game and I never understood why. Watching the game now, I get it, the game was hilarious lol.

A great Quest for Glory game.

Whats a good comfy game for a VR anon and his GF to play all day, snowed in with a blizzard?
We jammed on SimCity (SNES) pretty hard a few years ago, went well - you guys think Pac-Man 2 is too bizarre? Was also thinking Super Mario RPG.
Did our community ever come up with a consensus as to which is the definitive version of Harvest Moon?
inb4 wife, no retron in this cabin
Kirby, Mario Kart, any cute game with co-op option.
No go brag about your GF to one of the normalfag boards

>cute game with co-op option
Hit me. Been trying to think of one and I'm coming up dry. Like fucking goof troop or something? I'm not about to pull that shit where you hand controller 2 to someone and say "you can be Tails"
If you can pull it off, each of you play one of the scenarios of RE2, and swap when you complete the first one. Planning on doing that with my "boy_friend
I love quake, I really love it.
I wish that the following would happen:

Sounds line you should play Doom instead.
>>2930916
The problem with the Quake community is that it has three different styles of game, hence the community is split three ways in a way unlike Duke3D and DOOM are because they effectively only have the one game to work with.
Q1 is radically different from Q2 is radically different from Q3, with all subsequent games borrowing from one of those three. Saying that, though, those subsequent games are either derivative of 2 or 3 - Q1 thematically and in terms of gameplay stands alone outside of its expansions, so it...

Where does she rest, anon?
Do you know?
Let's find her, together.
So basically, I don't fucking know how to find lost shit. But, when u get a bunch of artists together, shit pans out. Hell, I was an OP on /co/ that started a mass search for some shitty bootleg sponge Bob movie, and that fucking actually got somewhere. We uncovered a huge money laundering scheme and shady BUISNESS stuff, shit was crazy. Did we find the movie? No, but we know where it is, and we know it exists. So come on down and help find some vidya with us!
Bumping for intrest.
>>2930872
we need someone with connections to Bandai. if working prototypes exist (and odds are they do) I'd guess they are in storage at Bandai in Japan. or in possession of a Bandai employee/ex-employee.
You guys ever paid a visit to that Graveyard Duck?
>>2930513
Its bullshit, I never live longer after he gives it to me. Also SQ is the retro game most in need of a remake.
>>2930515
The "Redaction" hack does make the game a lot more playable...
http://www.thealmightyguru.com/Games/Hacking/Hacks/SimonsRedaction.html
>>2930524
I find the game plenty playable already, it's been my favorite CV since it came out. Really the only issue is the translation and that only matters your first time through. But I think a full on remake would be wonderful. No other CV is quite like it.
How do I git gud at run n gun games?

REMEMBER KID
DON'T GET DEAD

memorize enemy placements,pattern, and behaviors and use that knowledge to your advantage.
Step 1: Run
Step 2: Gun
I cannot play Martial Champion without wanting to jack off to Rachael. It's been years since I felt this way about characters in a game. It's not even a good game.
