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?

Carts are superior and when future alien civilizations find ours they will still be able to play them

This is a rather specific question, but can /vr/ think of any retro 3D titles that have similar atmosphere and gameplay as Dark Souls?
Pic maybe related
I don't know, but consider checking out King's Field or Shadow Tower since they're also from From.
>>2900515
Oh look. It's this thread again.
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.
>>2900286
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:

Wasn't she in some softcore porn films, that's it?
>>2896265
Bump. I've always been curious about this too. Surely there must be some behind the scenes photos from the cutscene shoots for RE1.
ITT: Cute games that could get more love.
Entire game is like those sadistic mario bros hacks that used to be a thing on youtube.

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.
Which one?
>>2889963
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.
>>2889972
What order of Phantasy Star games would you recommend playing through?
>>2889984
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.
Anyone remember playing this BYOND fangame of Final Fantasy 4/2 as a multiplayer rpg on here?

Why did America choose to makes their version of the snes hideous?
I feel physically ill just looking at it. Can someone give me a legitimate explanation?
It was so it could be more easily used as a place to set your soda can.
I actually think the SFC looks too toylike.
had both as a kid, found the us version to be prettier, especially the buttons on the us one were nicer
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?
Also general fighting games thread.
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...
Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>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.
>>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.
>>2906984
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?
>>2906618
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?
>>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.

The first customer
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
>>2905795
well that was fast
>>2905795
>A button farthest away from where your thumb is going to be on the controller
It's shit
Admit it /vr. You've smashed a controller in anger before. What made you do it?
>>2905063
>Shoulder charge, shoulder charge, shoulder charge. HAHAHAHA. You will never win. Smash.
>>2905063
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.
How come games like Fallout 1, Boulders Gate, and Deus Ex aged like shit and are no longer fun to play while games like OOT and Super Mario 64 are hella fun and still enjoyable to this day?
>aged
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.
This thread is going to be great.
