Damn, I never played this game despite all the hype because it looked like a regular shooting. But damn I'm having a lot of fun, and the narration and comic book cutscenes are pretty cool, too.

I'm emulating the PS2 version and only the easiest difficulty is unlocked from the start, and I have been blazing through with max painkillers most of the time. Are there any codes to unlock these difficulties? I mean I'm not trying to go for a super challenge, but I don't want it to be too easy either.

Thing is when you get deep into arcade controls autism you learn that the parts in your image are not really much more authentic to real arcade parts for many /vr/ era joystick and button games than using a gamepad.

But they can still be fun.

>>
>>10453457
>candy cab with all sanwa controls
That would be an Astro City 2 or Versus City in their stock form. These are Sega fighting game cabinets. Principally Virtua Fighter.

The controls in your image include

>a fake Sanwa JLF
These are made in China and even say JLF on them and in the listing on ebay or aliexpress. Might be decent JLFs are so cheap you should just get the real thing from a reputable dealer.
>pushbuttons
These are new generation designs with a switch that was not ever commonly in use on arcade machines. It's still probably okay, but the feel won't be the same. As I recall this style of buttons was used in the SF 15th anniversary arcade stick and they have a rather long stroke and return time. They are supposed to be something like Happ Ultimate buttons, but they don't really pull it off.

Combining the two into the same control panel is an odd combo that would almost have never, ever have been seen in a real arcade. Maybe some places deep in the developing countries where part supplies intermixed.

For playing VF I would not recommend these parts.
>>
>>10455661
it's not meant to be literally these parts, more representative
>>
>>10453305
No. You can just play arcade games on arcade hardware, instead of whatever faggotry you're thinking about.

Err, no? People complained both about the smaller analog sticks and about the triggers being digital in what we got vs what was shown, you tried to defend it only from the analog sticks perspective.

from what i remember it's only hard to beat without dying. Each time you beat someone the next guy you fight has harder AI. But if you lose it kind of resets the AI. So you can beat it but you'll probably just die a few times

Super Nintendo version of Mortal Kombat II, definitely the best home port of the game for sure. Not only does it have better graphics that's close to resembling the og arcade version, but it also brings back the blood, bones and fatalities as well.

>>
>>10453794
>Was the Dreamcast ahead of its time?
In many ways yes. Online play in 1998, and VMU memory cards with a screen that let you do exclusive things on your controller. For example, in football games you could choose plays on your controller so your opponent couldn't see. And really great graphics at an affordable price.

Sega created a really great economical system. It had solid hardware with an easy to understand design, it was much easier to develop games for, and Sega provided great support to developers. They learned all the lessons of the failures of the Sega Saturn.

It's just so bad that Sega was in a terrible financial situation. The Sega Saturn's huge failure really hurt the company badly. If the Sega Saturn had done a little better, then Sega would have had more money for Dreamcast.

It was a next-gen handheld that could run at twice the speed.
>>
>>10456404
Sega's objective was to overthrow Gameboy's control of the handheld market. Just like how Sega Genesis took over North America from Nintendo in the console wars. Sega Genesis achieved a 65% market share at their peak and overthrew Nintendo's grip in the USA.

Sega invested millions into the Game Gear. It didn't meet their expectations and failed to achieve what Sega wanted. Therefore it was a failure in their eyes.


>The battery arguments are moot because anyone with a brain owned the powerback which had an over six hour charge. That’s more than enough for a car ride.

If I'm spending $150 dollars on a Game Gear, I'm Expecting better battery performance than that. It was twice the cost of Game Boy with worse battery life.

>>10456379
Game Boy had over 1000+ games and lasted longer. Game Gear was largely irrelevant after 1995.

There's auto aim for single player but definitely a lot more fun in coop because P2 can freely aim everywhere. Lots of guns too. I remember being pissed off because it required a dualshock and I only had one dualshock at the time, game wouldnt work with OG controller. Same as Twisted Metal 4.

Will this ever be emulated?

From what I can gather a couple of emulators support the hardware but not a way to scan barcodes, why is that? Wouldn't it be simple to add an interface where you just punch in the numbers of the barcode, or is it just that nobody gives a shit?

that thing had a pile of useless accessories it's amazing

Have you tried Mesen?
Or the SDL version of FCEUX?

Pretty sure I've seen ways of emulating it, albeit tediously.

You can call me innocent as well as them if I'm to believe that these, be as it may, unfortunate youthful morons, alongside with actual sex deprived overgrown outcasts who indulge in explicit depictions - don't find the virtue in gleefully spreading these perverse cryinface memes anywhere they have a passing chance.
