I'm curious what you guys use for emulation. I've always used a soft modded Wii with homebrew. I mainly play Snes, GameCube, Ps1, N64. I've been thinking about switching to a mini PC hooked up to my TV with wireless controllers so my setup is cleaner and i would be able to play dreamcast and ps2 games
>>10877971I can't believe I had no problems with playing sin and punishment some years ago. Tried it again last week and it felt really weird.
>>10880138Which one, the wii versiom of you tried to emulate the n64 original?
>>10880171Emulated the original.
>>10881867there, the n64 emulation outside of VC is catshit
wish mister wasn't $600
Did anyone beat Simon's Quest on their own, with no outside information, back then?
>>10882124It's funny that I beat Simon's Quest multiple times, CV1 endlessly and CV3 a number of times and still have yet to finish any Mario other than DokiDoki or Zelda other than LA.
>>10882163Is it even that weird? I've beaten a bunch of hard NES games but never finished the original Mario either. I just don't like playing it. Mario 2 USA's a lot more enjoyable for me.
>>10882213It seems weird around here, it seems to be regarded as the greatest gaming ever was, but in general maybe not. I never got why people love playing Mario so much, even as a kid I got bored with it.
you guys realize the avgn thing was a joke, right? a skit. it wasn't meant to be taken literally. play your own video games.
>>10882228I guess it's just simple enough that it's "flawless". I think it's pretty boring too, though.

I wonder if the A30 will bankrupt Miyoo
>>10883341It's actually the pocketgo a30, but it performs way worse.
>>10883547Not playing shitty fan fiction games
>>10881908Not him, I need another one of these for my PMP IV>>10882032Why not just buy an SF2000 or PowKiddy Q90 or something? Outside of -maybe- Brick Game LCD toys, most of the handhelds I've bought exceeded my expectations, including even Famiclones. Sometimes it's better just to collect the cheap ones if you just want a quick fix, that way you can collect as many as you want without having to pay out so much. There's a lot of nice-looking handhelds but there are cheaper alternatives to basically every single one. There's also PowKiddy Q20 and LDK landscape if you can find one
ITT: Fuck you, I love it
>>10879075You do have to strategize more, but it isn't the end of the world. Just analyze a new enemy when you see it.>>10879075
>>10877030Its not a period piece Anon. It was just set contemporaneously (or a couple years in the future I guess) with its release date. The remake would be a period piece, but not the original.
>>10879075Just play p3 portable. It's the streamlined version to be more in line with how p4&5 are
>>10876038>Chrono Cross is the better game out of the twonahits fucking gr8 thodef my favorite PS1 jarpig
>>10868762It's a great game. With a bittersweet ending from what I vaguely remember. >>10869240It's a cool game but it honestly filtered me because of the random difficulty spikes and my Digimon randoml shitting before I could get them to a toilet. Also there was one status debuff early on that killed my Digimon outright. I'm talking super early when you're only able to get the daily freebies from the first village. I kinda want to pick it back up now.

I cant believe in 25 years there's still no good games in this genre. Why does every attempt fuck up a simple isometric shooter? Foxhole is complete ass even today in comparison to Infantry, its not even funny.>simple controls>easy and quick access to fun>deep mechanical depth while still being simple>open player developmentEvery other title trying to do top-down/isometric shooters over complicate the fuck out of everything. Atleast Infantry is on Steam now, dont have to suffer hordes of chinese motherfuckers to get my fix. Foxhole can die now.
>>10879319look i still find it hard to believe it took 30 years to realize EA made only kusoge.
>>10879319>isometricSIGH
>>10880471>kusogethe most cringe word on 4chan next to ludo a kek
This is an isometric shooter, not that command and conquer lookin shit you posted.
>>10880471>EA made only kusoge.>>10881081Starflight 2 and Budokan were good.
Whatcha playing?
>>10877243You are playing them wrong anon >>10870181
>>10878715This game is so broken. They did good things but>Just find a good spot and grind there to clear the level.
>>10879004>I didn't play 2dshit games as a kid and so combat and navigation is absolute torture, not to mention the cryptic bullshit.Being filtered by 2D top down navigation, zoomers never stop amazing me.
>>10879004Did you at least read the manual? I feel like this is the main thing people fuck up when playing retro games, the developers expected you to have access to the manual so not everything is fully explained in-game.
Actually Playing LandstalkerLast finished was Chronicles of the radia war
how many games do have Omakes?
Omake just means "extra", so there's probably a good few, see picrel.
>>10879504>>10879440This threads just cum and go.....Just say you want them rips.
>>10879504hoardcucks are just like that
*Omanko
Farland Saga 2 PC version has an Omake folder in the CD. It has some cute arts and wallpapers. I'm looking for it because my friend lost his disk long time ago. The PS version is laggy and has worse graphic.
What's the most difficult thing you've ever done in a retro game? For me it was one coin clearing this behemoth. Took me months of hardcore grinding before one day I finally got lucky and beat it on my last life. My heart was probably beating 200 times a minute
Why does every Mario have the most cancerous auto scrollers in gaming? It's like fromsoft and their poison swamps
>>10881343Vanilla Dome 3 is absolute kino level, though. And not really an auto-scroller, it just has some skull ride parts.
>>10881464>"riddled with"there's only a few in each gameOutside of the airship/tank levels, SMB3 only has 7 auto-scrollers in the entire game
>>10881620>if we ignore all these autoscrollers, there are less autoscrollers in the gameyou are a phenomenally retarded faggot.
>>10881464Comparing it to dark souls gives the impression

This is the 3rd time I've played through Tales of Symphonia, but the first time I've played the GC original, and... WOWI cannot fathom how I played this game in the dogshit 30fps version it exists as in all the re-releases. I've always been a guy who laughs at muh 60FPS fags but it is just absurd how much smoother and silkier this plays vs the PS3 version, much less the 2023 port. And the sad thing is this is commonplace across all companies these days when it comes to port quality.
>>10880248If you can’t tell the difference between 30 and 60 you’ve been lobotomized
>>10879943Still the GOAT JRPG, one of the few (the only one maybe) Tales of that doesn't aggressively waste your time with random encounters or huge hallway corridors and ridiculous backtracking (second half of Abyss)Nice story focus but still very gamey and nice quick Zelda-like dungenons. Cool action combat but still rather clunky and methodical and not too obsessed with trying to be DMC-liteMaybe THE "shonen style" JRPG cast and an actually normal Chad protag who doesn't have long hair in his face, isn't an emo, doesn't wear girl's clothes, isn't an edgelord (not a total idiot either)
The 30/60FPS thing isn't that bad unless you literally play one right after the other, side by side.I've played through the PS2 version countless times and grew up on the GC version. I'm content to play either at this point, but my annual playthrough is usually on the PS2.https://files.catbox.moe/mxuabn.webmhttps://files.catbox.moe/43z04z.webm
>>10879943The best part is thst Scamco announced an update and made a huge deal over it.Not a single change or fix featured making the game 60fps.Same shit with Star Ocean 2 remake where Square-Enix did a whole video on new content yet leave the switch version 30fps, despite the fact there's now a mod upping that.
>>10880030Maybe
Just downloaded the Spanish patch of Dual Orb II. What am I in for?
>>10880628Dos Orbe dos
¡ y !
>>10880628Kinda good but obviously random encounters and I lost interest at some point. Probably a bit basic?The perspective thing in the battles was cool but once you realize that it doesn't really make sense and things are much bigger or smaller than they should be it's less cool
>>10880628camiones monstruo y rifles de francotirador
>>10880628EL MEJOR RPG DE LA SNES
Do you like final fight 2 and 3?I never see them being mentioned. They're a lot easier than 1 but the special moves are fun to use, 3 even has a super
>>10876037nah, if that were the case she would be using clothes more like the ones of cammy.
>>10878870Max is more like Raiden from Fatal Fury.
>>10878870max is better in SoR2 than haggar is in ff because atleast he has that cool dash special for good movement. haggar is definitely cooler though
>>10873356Love both SoR and FF series and the genre in general, but man is FF's music a joke by comparison.
>>10881246>atleast he has that cool dash special for good movement.It's shit compared to Haggar'd backward body slam
What's the final word on the English translation? It was controversial at release because it's a Japanese -> machine translation to Spanish -> English translation. Understandably there would be something lost in translation with a funnel like that.But is the translation actually bad? I've been holding off in case a better English translation comes along. But if we're talking the occasional Engrish, but the actual translation is sound, I can vibe with that. I'm wondering if it's just a bad translation, or if it's badly translated, if that makes sense.
>>10880612It's a vague and trippy game. A shitty translation might actually affect nothing, who's to say. The game is clunky and lives off of its vibe though.
In all honesty I'm just happy with the cover art and sometimes posting it on hidden gem threads, it looks mysterious. Playing the actual game is not a priority of mine.
>>10880612>Japanese -> machine translation to Spanish -> English translationlol garbage
>>10880643Do we know if the original translation team is still working on it?
>>10880612>But is the translation actually bad?What do you think?>Japanese -> machine translation to Spanish -> English translation.
