Whats more satisfying? Inserting a cartridge into a console like a genesis or n64, or inserting a disc into something like a Playstation or Saturn?

This is a rather specific question, but can /vr/ think of any retro 3D titles that have similar atmosphere and gameplay as Dark Souls?

Also on PC, although that version is essentially a completely different game since it was handled by a different studio, with virtually no communication between the two developers. This was frankly one of the most bizarre porting decisions I've ever seen.

Do you use arcade sticks for general /vr/ gaming and not just for fighting games/shmups/mame?

I've found it works really well. Mega Man games in particular feel really nice.

Love em for fighters and beat em ups and often enough for platformers.

Really have been meaning to pick up an NES advantage because it translates well to most NES games too and I haven't used one since something like 1995.

It really does something to make the game feel more lively

Beat'em ups gain a lot with arcade sticks.
>>
>>2900286
Most arcade style games benefit from a stick.

I like to use my SNES advantage for JRPG grinding since its the only turbo controller i own.

Has anyone figured out what actress played her? It's the live action Jill Valentine in the original 1996 Resident Evil. In the credits she's listed as "Inezh".

Here's a video:

I love Croc, but it isn't a cute game by any standard. It's downright terrifying in places.

The sequels, that might actually be considered "cute", are trash.

Phantasy Star for me. It has better, more interesting themes and settings, and I like how there's a consistent plotline that has an immensely satisfying end. Final Fantasy has great gameplay ideas in some games, but it's like it's trying too hard when it comes to setting and plot. Phantasy Star has an understated, effortless style of pulling stuff that FF beats you over the head over and over in an attempt to manipulate you into caring about the plot. FF is good too, but PS is better for me.

Wow, I can't believe there's people like this that exist. They didn't all come out at the same time and also have numbers to help you figure it out.

So it occurred to me that the N64 has a 6 button setup right out of the box. Are there any good fighting games that take advantage of this?

There isn't any Capcom or SNK fighting game on the N64.

But there's KI Gold, Rakuga Kids, Flying Dragon, Super Robot Spirits, War Gods, MACE, Dark Rift, G.A.S.P, Fighter's Destiny, Clayfighter 63 1/2, and a few others.

Most of them are mediocre 3D fighters that don't come close to Virtua Fighter or Tekken, but Flying Dragon has a SD mode with RPG elements that's actually really fun, better than the main game.

The more traditional 2D games you'll find are KI and Rakuga Kids (which is actually a hilarious underrated game).

Oh yeah, there's also Mortal kombat Trilogy and MK4.
>>
>>2907275
Where can you even buy Rakuga Kids besides ebay?

>>2907280
I'm sorry, but are you being serious? Is this some sort of troll?

Think of where you might buy a Nintendo 64 game that isn't on ebay normally.

Why was every platform game from the west so awful compared to the Japanese ones? They're all collect-a-thons with bad controls and zero gameplay variety.
54 posts and 6 images submitted.
>>
>>2906981
Because Japan is the country that took game development seriously instead of shitting out bad games.
>>
Probably because western developers largely came from a computer game background where games were lower budget and they had to deal with serious problems like one button joysticks.

Then how come Euro games always sound and look better?

Couldn't find any threads related to Metroid and I'm looking to getting into the series. I want to start with the original, though in my research I found that Zero Mission is a remake of the original. Should I play Zero Mission instead of the original, or is it like playing Twin Snakes instead of MGS?

Zero mission is frankly better in every way. It's an excellent remake.
>>
>>2906618

Zero Mission>Original

The original is still playable(especially if you LOVE 8-bit games) but it is definitely one of those cases where the remake wins out.

>>2906621
>better in every way
It's lower resolution than the original.

Which are some baffling decisions that happened for no good reason?

Like the American SNES design, I mean, what the hell, not aggressive enough for NoA's higher ups?
65 posts and 7 images submitted.
>>
>>2905797
Well, I heard that NoA made this design so americans couldn't put cola on units - NESes were often broken because of cola.
Not sure if it's just a joke about americans though.

Presumably because the NES redesign worked so well for them. The SFC looks nice too but I honestly really like the American SNES. Not sure why some people feel so strongly about it

>>2905819
This makes sense but it's not like the other SNES design is flat enough to put drinks on either.

Name one controller better than this. No memes

I did when I was a teenager but I snapped out of it when I threw a controller causing it to bounce off the wall and right into my face.

Perhaps, if I did I don't remember it seeing as it was 20+ years ago.
I'm not a fucking child anymore who throws a tantrum when I lose in a game.

OoT is less fun than any of the games you mentioned before. I think it might have something to do with you being a massive faggot though.
