Did you guys know that there is a Vectrex emulator?
link: http://www.vectrex.fr/ParaJVE/
Sure it might not be the same as owning an actual real Vectrex but it is an alternative for those who don't own one.
Of course we know, but you can't replicate the intensity of a real vector display.
>>2933993
That's kind of the whole appeal of the system, isn't it? The games are just clones of other arcade games.
>>2933991
Yeah, it's called MAME or MESS. They've had it for ages, there's only like 28 vectrex games and shit.
>>2933993
Not strictly, but yeah it's possible if you pick up vector monitor or tweak a standard CRT to act as one. Though honestly with an overlay to kill the shit black levels, an LCD could probably do it since they're pretty stupid fuck bright as well.

BETTER RED THAN DEAD
Is this the best Zelda hack?
>fan hack
>good
>>2932109
Some fan hacks can be good I'm sure, if nothing else just another way to play the game you enjoy
>>2932109
There's a ton of them, don't be a faggot.
What is the best game to emulate on your touch only phone?
rpg, strategy
play some fft, vandal hearts
Turn based RPGs and turn based strategy games like Famicom Wars.
>>2929668
GBA/SNES/NES rpg's are good.
I play allot of pokemon rom hacks on mine, but I use the NDS emu for them.
hi guys. this is a thread for heroes of might and magic: 2. also a thread for homm3, but not officially because it was released after 1999.
black dragons or titans?
>>2913229
Dragons undebatably.

>homm3, but not officially because it was released after 1999.
No, it was released in 1999.
>>2913290
oh shit m80, your right!! fuck yeah man leats talk about heroes 2 and 3. i prefer 2, although it lacks some really nice features from 3 (like 'wait' command, garrisoning heroes, auto-combat, flee-if-deny-diplomacy), and it is unbalanced as fuck, but fuck me if it isn't so much better.
People thought I was weird when I said I liked H2 more than third.
Dont get me wrong I like Heroes3 alot, but I always found the graphics of Heroes 2 more warm, and comfy. Like leaving my physical body from the hellish earth and snuggle into kawaii, warm and moist jungleswamp.
How's the Spec Ops series on PS1?
>>2935127
Not really good, they were 10 dollar budget games back in 2000.

Nice falseflagging
Just got myself a NES emulator for my laptop as well as Rad Racer and Super Mario Bros ROMS.
Can anyone recommend me some good NES games to play?

BIONIC COMMANDO MUTHERFUCKER!!!
>Let us go out this evening for pleasure.
>The night is still young.
What did he mean by this?
>>2932780
I had to reverse image search just to find out what game that's from. I didn't even know it was possible to get a game over in SotN. You must really suck.
>>2932780
I think it means, "let's go out and party, it's still early in the night"
Meaning you got a game over? Well time to turn off the TV and go out.
>>2932789
Or maybe he's doing a challenge run, thief mode, Hardtype romhack, or simply got surprised by one of the couple of enemies with strong attacks he didn't expect.
well yeah you can die pretty easy when you first get to the inverse castle, since the damage enemies do likely outpaces your defense, you'll die in one or two hits depending on the foe.
anyway, the quote I suppose is psycho richter/dracula suggesting to his vampire concubines that they go out and burn a village or something so they can eat some children and have some fun with a big black magic satan worshiping blood party
How the fuck do I get good in this game?
>>2932213
more plebs are needed...
>>2932213
Houses, markets, farms, wheat storages.
I barely played military maps though.
I was going to reply to this thread and for some reason it got deleted/404.
I don't know what the hell happened, so I'm making a new Goemon thread, and I'll reply to the last poster:
The 5th english-released Goemon title is Ganbare Goemon: Sarawareta Ebisumaru!, originally a Game Boy title from 1991, that got re-released on a Konami collection cart for the Game Boy Color in 1997, and this version was released in Europe in the year 2000. It's a rather obscure release because it's a late GBC game and only in Europe, but that's the last Goemon...

Sometimes I wonder if I'm the only one capable of using wikipedia.
Does anyone know why the GB game released 6 years later is so fucking inferior? Graphics, gameplay, everything. It's mind boggling

>Does anyone know why the GB game released 6 years later is so fucking inferior? Graphics, gameplay, everything. It's mind boggling
They were made by different teams. I know know which Konami team made the Kidnapping of Ebisumaru (I don't think it was the same group that made the FC versions), but Mystery of the Black Ship (the one came out in the US as a stand-alone cart) was made by KCE Nagoya, the same "geniuses" behind Castlevania Legends and the Saturn port...

I really like Goemon 2 (Famicom). I think it's overlooked by most who pay attention to just the SNES/N64 games.

It's time for some Strife!
This game give action of DOOM with the sense of adventure that DOOM lacks!Also, why is this game damn hard?!
>>2930093
>Also, why is this game damn hard?!
I love me some Strife but it's not that hard.

Do you trust me?
Which Genesis 2 model is the best to get? I've heard one of them has horrible sound, and I work a game store which has a Model 2 for sale, and I want to make sure it's the best one before I buy it.

Get another one.
The mysterious case of Jill Valentine's first portraying actress.
You know the drill.
For the few of you out of the loop:
The identity of "Inezh," portraying actress of Jill Valentine in the first Resident Evil game, remains an unsolved mystery among veteran Resident Evil fans. Officially, she was a high school exchange student with no prior acting experience. Mikami regretted having her on board once production started the shoot at the Tama River. "Inezh" frequently complained about the mosquitos and insisted on wrapping things up ahead of schedule. No one knows where she is now, but I'd be mighty interested to hear her reflect...

last thread someone named her, and the name matched at least a lowres porn found on a couple sites, was it Una Kavanagh that was wrongly name in the thread then?
There's already two fucking RE threads, use one of those.
I'm curious if any retro games came bundled with extensive level editing / modding tools, similar to something like The Elder Scrolls Construction Set. I'm interested in 3D RPGs and action-adventure games specifically.
By "extensive," I mean capable of editing entire maps, importing custom textures and models, importing custom sound files, and the scripting of cutscenes.
Sword of Moonlight: King's Field Making Tool
Not sure about cutscenes, but judging by screenshots, everything else should fit your definition of extensive.
>>2926078
SoM is a great example. I've been playing around with it lately, but like you said, I don't know about cutscene support. It looks like you can give NPCs basic dialogs and specify whether they're standing or sitting, but can't do much else with them.
Then again, the series never had particularly elaborate cutscenes.
>>2926069
What game is that?
So I spent the last hour or so trying to find anything on the internet to sate my curiosity over this, but with no luck.
So this level, at the beginning of World 1-2, in Super Mario Bros. 2 has a jar you drop into which apparently only has a 1-up Mushroom, and serves no other function. As you can see though, the floor can be bombed leading to...somewhere. Everything I've checked makes no reference to this, and I have no idea if it's possible to pull a bomb and see what's down there. So I ask, /vr/: What the hell is under that floor?
Also, general unanswered secrets thread.
in DKC1... in the first level... beginning of the game... you can see a 1UP balloon at the way top of the screen on a tree top, but if you jump or manage to get up there it always disappears... like some weird 1up glitch or something...
The first Wizards and Warriors for the NES, level 2, there's an area of the map that, I swear to God, is impossible to reach. I spent hours trying to get up there, but with no luck. Is it at all possible to actually get up here?
>>2933279
Also, while on the subject, what the fuck does the Cloak of Darkness (that's the name of the power-up, right?) even do? It just turns you "invisible" and plays the potion music, but enemies still attack you, and you take the normal amount of damage (as far as I know). I've never been able to figure out what its actual function was for.
