You know those macros that boards make. Like /v/ will have a 'patrician-core' and what have you. I wanna make a 'hard-core' one for /vr/, basically make a list of hard (but fair - mostly anyway) retro games. Games that if you beat you can be considered a decent player of video games. You can include a difficulty setting if you want for a specific game.
Unfortunately I can't shoop so hopefully somebody else will have to take the helm.
So what's it gonna be /vr/? What will be our 'Hard-Core' list? can be across all genres of course

DEEPEST LORE
Eh, it's not as funny with mario.
It's just a cool looking city at night dude
>>3329915
That looks nothing like CPZ
Can someone tell me why Paladin's Quest is so highly praised on the Internet? I mean, maybe I'm just a pleb, but I genuinely don't see what's so unbelievably amazing about this game.
It probably was the first JRPG for a lot of people, which is usually the reason people overrate mediocre games like FFIV or Earthbound
I've never seen much praise for it though, as far as I am concerned people seem to agree it was mediocre at best
>>3329301
I guess maybe it's just hipsters. But there are a weird amount of people and websites on the Internet that talk about how it's just so amazing and unique and such an underappreciated gem and the story and setting are so deceptively deep like omg.
Honestly I think the game seems, like you said, mediocre at best, and the story seems very generic.
>>3329270
Contrary to what legitimate autists will say, people love different. This was "different" (read: new) to a lot of people as >>3329301 said.
When casuals played videogames in ye olden days, they weren't expecting deep stories or varying choices. You just jump/shoot on enemies and get points. The first "complex" game these people come across they will praise heavily as some huge milestone in gaming, which is why "timeless classics"...

The absolute madman
Name a flaw
Protip:You can't
1-Shitty Charactars nobody cares about
2- Graphics are abysmal
3- Gameplay sucks.
4- Playstation has only 2 controller ports, never can you play 3 player or more.
This thread is bait.

That doesn't count, nigger. That costs money. I have to get off my ass to either find it in a thrift store, or buy one of ebay.
Holy shit is the catalog shit right now. Let's have a fun nice thread, so favorite movie game? Pic related is mine.
Didnt know there was a decent Aliens game. Is that arcade?
>>3328346
Yeah. Decent is a generous term but it's OK.
The fighting system in this game was unreal
Why Sonic Adventure 1 and 2 are still acclaimed has masterpiece when they're objectively really bad games?
Colours and Generation are really superior and awesome games but nobody calls it "masterpiece" or "the last good Sonic games"
C'mon, even Secret rings, Black knight and Unleashed are better games!!!
So why!!!
Fans really wanted new flagship Sonic games so they transferred their reverence for the Genesis games to these ones, even though they're not great. Reminds me of Metroid Prime or Mario 64.
>>3321984
B-but the three Metroid Prime ARE masterpiecenot Mario 64, fuck that piece of shit with non existant level design and platforming
>>3321985
> non existant level design and platforming
I don't get this meme
You are hired at Square Enix. They noticed that Dragon Quest is doing well in Japan but not so well elsewhere. They want to expand their market, and they are giving you unlimited resources and one year to do with whatever you please. How would you introduce Dragon Quest to as many new individuals as possible?
Also, discuss whatever else Dragon Quest that you would like to get off your shoulders.
Kami Tier:
Dragon Quest V
High Tier:
Dragon Quest III
Mid Tier:
Dragon Quest IV
Dragon Quest
Low Tier:
Dragon Quest VII
Dragon Quest VI
Shit Tier:
Dragon Quest II
>>3310180
i wouldn't put anything under "shit". your opinions are your own tho so whatev
>>3310165
>How would you introduce Dragon Quest to as many new individuals as possible?
Rename it to Final Fantasy Quest.
Add FF cameos/costumes/jobs.
Have Nomura act like it's a new series and recommend it.
Post ya setups

Don't try this at home, unless you want your skull crushed in
I hate it when indie games appropriate retro game culture.

What if they're really good though?
Say I'm on OSX and I want to modify some .n64 ROMS, simple stuff like replacing textures and soundfiles. What are my options?
I would probably do a search at romhacking.net. I'm an OS X user myself, but you might want to use a VM for that kind of thing, Windows has a lot more ROM editing utilities available for it.
Tile Molester
N64 texture tools
There's a Mac Version of N64 Texture Explorer, though I don't have a blue's clue how to use it.
Is the snes mini valuable? I found this snes jr at about 30 dollars. I already have a normal ntsc snes.
A complete SNES for $30 is a good deal regardless of how rare it is
>>3333464
It's worth the 30 you paid for it.
>>3333464
It's worth about 30 bucks if it's not modded for RGB.
Playing through it for the first time, seems like a great game. Feels like spells don't scale very well though, early on, my casters were rekking most mobs before they could even reach me, now, at level 11, they pretty much buff and debuff, and the melee classes do the bulk of the damage. Some of the enemies are extremely rage inducing. Umpani trackers are capable of killing some weaker characters in a single round, forcing a lot of savescumming.
Fuck Wiz8. I despise any RPG with level scaling in it.
>>3333237
yeah! It ruins any sense of danger
