Is there a better "sports game with a twist" game than this one?
NBA Jam maybe?
Mutant League Hockey

Ninja Golf
This is how you faggots play Mario

I'm angry because I'm the best Mario player out there
>there was no Game Sack Halloween special this year
Explain yourselves Joe and Dave.
i know we shit on youtubers here a lot (because most of them are fucking garbage like that metal jesus guy) but i really like game sack
people on youtube make me really really upset!!!!!!!!! go back to the other boards!!!!!!!!!
I actually always thought the halloween episodes are overrated.
The Portland convention has come & gone. Is anyone in the DC area planning on going to Video Gamers United? Or have been to it before? I haven't been before but it's a month away and it's piqued my interest.
If you go to these type of conventions you should bring a wad of cash and just casually ask grill gamers if they want to make some money fucking you.
Other wise you're a huge fucking nerd and should kill yourself.

Might as well skip the videogame thing and just pay for an escort.
Why are these games so unreasonably difficult? Battletoads is fair. Ninja Gaiden is fair. Ghouls 'n Ghosts is fair.
Gradius is not only harder than all of these, not only takes away all your powers if you die, not only occasionally sends you back MULTIPLE LEVELS when you get hit ONCE, they somehow expected people to pay actual money for every single credit.
I've been reduced to a shell of man, so why can't I stop playing them?
supposedly the ? decreases your rank
it doesn't actually help much though
>>2773251
Doesn't it also remove all your powerups? I don't even think it existed in gradius 3 arcade.
>>2773253
Yeah most of the time it's lethal since it also takes away your speed ups. I'm always tempted to use it, even though I know it's mostly a trap.
Some elitist will come here and tell me to stfo.
Has anyone here added a Pam8403 to your portables? I just ordered a few of these and am thinking of throwing one in my Nomad to help the anemic sound (yes, I've replaced caps and am using a newer speaker...though smaller).
>>2772938
I have no idea what this shit is
>>2772942
datasheet says it's a high quality, low power usage, 3 watt audio amplifier IC
It's an audio amplifier, yeah. High quality, maybe maybe not...but it is impressive to what its output is based on voltages.
I stumbled onto these, looking for a small amp layout. They're super inexpensive at $1-2 each...
What is it about emulating games that just feels so much less fun and fulfilling than playing games on their original platform?
A mental illness
it's difficult to play four games at once
no fun when you handicap yourself like that
I don't have that problem. Emulating is very enjoyable to me. Maybe your just a nostalgia filled faggot?
Or you just don't commit to it. Many people hoard tons of roms and don't really take their time to enjoy the games they play. They also tend to abuse save states, I know I did. Some games definitely benefit from save states, but if you put up one before every jump in Mario, your not going to have much fun.
Plugging a cartridge in is also a very satisfying feeling.
>Yeah!
>Excellent!
>Watch out!
>Here it comes!
>WAH!
>Bye!
I think the gargling sound when you do a 16 hit chain in the original puyo was originally a glitch but they decided to keep it that way in the newer games. It's really satisfying for some reason, sounds like the game is having a seizure.

Never mind, I just checked it and the arcade version doesn't do it.
How different would the landscape have been if Nintendo opted for CDs instead of cartridges when developing the N64?
now loading...
>>2772356
shit would have taken longer to load.
Would honestly be interesting.
The console would had been a lot pricier but games not cost $80. But at the same time there would had been load times.
I think the biggest change would be the GC since it would make no sense for Nintendo to go from CDs to mini CDs and having backwards capability would be a big thing,

I like Bonk's Adventure, Super Bonk and other Hudson games, but this one is interesting in that it feels like what I imagine a PCE game would be like [I haven't found a working emulator for linux plus I am too stubborn to use wine and too broke to buy a PCE]
Have any of you played it? Do you know of any good games like it? Are the Joe and Mac games good? I understand Congo's Caper is a sequel to those.
This game has some weird mechanics and interesting animations, but it's on the sweet spot where it's not as bland as Super Adventure Island...

There has never been a better mech game since.
So how do you get it working on modern systems?
MechVM
Better question is how to find a decenet copy of Mechwarrior 2 that isnt one of those bullshit rereleases with shit missing or whatever
>>2772904
There are certain sites that archive things like this. However they are of dubious legality.
Man, this game is really something. I don't know if I like it or dislike it to be honest. It seems really interesting but also really flawed.
What do you all think of it? Did it ever get sequels or other releases?
Just play the good konami game on the MSX this one ripped off Knightmare
>>2772121
This one?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFglKPvQmN4
Looks way more forgiving than King's Knight. That game doesn't pull punches.
Incidentally, not surprised to see it's a copy, Squaresoft seemed big on copying other company's games, at least until they released Final Fantasy and finally got some new ideas to fill their sails.
>>2772150
yah that one, its not that great but better than kings knight
Can we have a fallout thread?
fallout 1 & 2 were great. Just played them till I was sick of them. Three was kinda ok, but I was already burnt out. but have a bump.
