This board is for the discussion of classic, or "retro" games, including consoles, computer games, arcade games (including pinball) and any other forms of video games. Retro gaming means platforms launched in 2001 and earlier, and official game titles for those platforms released no later than December 2007 (homebrew console games made after this date will be permitted). The Microsoft Xbox, Nintendo GameCube, Nintendo Game Boy Advance, and Sony PlayStation 2 will now be considered "retro". Helpful links: Game Tech Wiki Emulation General Wiki

What /vr/ PC games are best controlled with a joystick?

Real Castlevania > fake Castlevania (the twink/femboy ones that on top of being faggy, are easy/casual bait)

I just bought this $70 8shitdo and in less than a year of very light usage it's already broken. I don't want to waste money on another 8shitdo, and everything else on Amazon is just Gamesaar and other no-name brands. What is actually trustworthy and worth the money? I would prefer wired over wireless, and a good dpad is a must for retro gaming. It's a shame that 8shitdo's build quality is garbage, because otherwise the controller felt great. Is the GuliKit Elves 2 controller any good?

back in 1991, if your only option to play Final Fight at home was the SNES port, I recommend the Famicom version.

What's the biggest jump in difficulty you've seen in a retro game? Pic related for me. The last level was just absurd compared to the rest of the game.

An anon on here a few years back had a huge collection of these charts. He would post a directory and you could request specific ones from him. Does anyone have them?

It's been a while since we talk about this game let's fix that.

Post games that you still play.

Suddenly games are not for children anymore. Developers went from 6MB cartridges to 650MB CDs. Third-Party developers received friendlier and more accessible publishing arrangements, lowering the barrier to entry while maximizing profits. The PlayStation business model fundamentally changed the video game industry by shifting console gaming from a toy market into a multi-Billion-Dollar mainstream entertainment empire.

What went wrong?

This was a good Castlevania game. I don't find it particularly worse than Rondo,why did people trash it so much?

Post games that never got released.

What's your favorite retro puzzler? Note that I mean real brain games, not falling block or match-3 action games which retardedly share the same genre label.

imagine collecting Sega Saturn games like a desperate faggot when you could get one of these for $50 and play to your hearts content AND you get the added benefit of fanslations.

This game's actually fairly impressive. It looks like an MMC3 game despite basically running on the UNROM/CNROM-tier hardware of the FDS.

Blood spams them so much that they ruined a near perfect game. Imagine if half of Doom 2's zombies were chaingunners. It would be idiotic and everyone would rightfully complain about it. Blood should be treated no differently.

I had a ton of hype for this but I can't help but feel let down now that I've played it. Everything just feels cheap and junky. Is it something you just had to be there at the time or what?

On one hand, a game that redefined RPGs, made you PLAY a false flashback and believe it, let its characters keep their own voices instead of turning them into the author's megaphone, ended without telling you whether humanity survived, and never needed pretentious quotes to give itself airs. On the other hand, there's Xenogears.

Why didn’t she become as popular as Tifa?

Not shitposting, just an idea I had: a thread for conceptual demakes. What would modern games look like if they had been made back in the day, on actual retro hardware? Post mockups, ideas, or examples, and talk about how the game might have played within the limitations of the system. With the tools we have now, making them a reality isn't just fantasy anymore, but becoming a legitimate possibility, and with homebrews, romhacks, and modern releases on retro hardware being allowed, I believe this should fit within the scope of /vr/.

Did anyone else check out the original for one last time before the remake comes out? what did you think of the original recently?

>called Resident Evil 3 Nemesis >The Nemesis is an obnoxious piece of shit and by far the worst part of the game Also, unrelated but does it annoy anyone else that they couldn't be bothered to put in flavortext for 90% of the shit in the game? Even just a single line, just SOMETHING to give a little bit more atmosphere and immersion and to acknowledge your place in this world. Overall 4>5>2>3>1, still need to play the remakes

Do any retro horror games come close?

Disclaimer that I'm not a big horror game guy, except for like Resident Evil, which I love (yes, I'm a basic faggot). I've played Silent Hill 1 on the PSX like 15 years ago and thought it was okay. Never played SH 2 or 3 btw, I hear those are much better... But I dunno, just wanted to play a random horror game, picked this one and this shit is so boring. I'm like 2 hours in and I'm about to drop this shit. Should I push through? Should I stop this one and go play 2 or 3?

How many post-Pokemon heavy-hitters could've made it to Game Gear had they not been exclusive to Game Boy? Realistically, all of them could've been multiplats.

>Oh, that looks like a nice planet to land on >gets crushed by heavy gravity

Halo: Dreamcast Evolved running on real Dreamcast hardware >Here's what I'll say. These are Halo's real Xbox models, whole. >The Dreamcast has no vertex shader, so every single vertex goes through a CPU from 1998. The Xbox looks up a reflection mask per pixel on the visor. The PVR can't, it only takes a colour per vertex. So the visor is cut ahead of time into 4x and then 16x the triangles, and I refit the mask on every new vertex. That drops the error against the Xbox's per-pixel reflection to about a third. Smaller triangles, less lying. >Cortana's chest is two separate springs, one each side, three axes each, underdamped on purpose. Spin her on the D-Pad and let go and... well. That was purely for science. It costs about 150 floating point operations a frame and no video memory.

What would Resident Evil Zero N64 (ROM/Cartridge) have been like?

Did the Dreamcast even compete against the ps2/gamecube/Xbox? It seems like it was sold as an alternative to the ps1 and n64 rather than any gen 6 console. Dreamcast is gen 5

There are so many gosh darn games in this fugging franchise, which ones are actually worth playing, which ones should be avoided and which one is the best starting point for newfags to the series?

I think it's fair to say that the ultimate goal for most retro gamers is to have an arcade cabinet in your home. I really want one. I always have. I have various arcade PCB's that I run via a supergun but I don't have any cabinets. I'm hoping to finally pick one up next year. Do you have an arcade cabinet?

I just bought it on GOG. What am I in it for?

I have a Beckhoff CX9020 Embedded PC/PLC unit (ARMv7-A/Cortex-A8), and while I'm going to be using it for actual automation projects, I wanted to see about doing some funny stuff with it. I looked online for an available port, but I can't find a ready-to-go one available for download anywhere, and porting software goes right over my head. Does anyone here happen to have something that would work?

I booted this up just to fuck about with it expecting to drop it in less than 20 minutes but I ended up playing for a while. It's not a concept that makes me jump out of my seat when I hear it but it is very relaxing and satisfying to play, at least so far. I hear the sequel is even better too. They've got the bird guys with the handbags on the doors, you know the ancient south american gods or whatever, civilisation bringers who rekindled the world after a calamity. That's neat and totally lost on kids.

Looking at this: https://dcemulation.org/1-newsdump/QRandom/DC%20stuff/info/150-000105-1e_SegaDreamcast_title.pdf The dreamcast cost at least $220 each in the year 2000. It was sold at a loss. So here's how Dreamcast hardware can possibly be sold at a profit, while being better equipped to stand alongside other Gen 6 consoles. >GPU Rendition Verite 2200 instead of PowerVR2. Since it was manufactured in 350nm node, it was cheaper than PowerVR2 (250nm node) and could be fabbed in the same plant that produced the SH4 CPU. But the biggest benefit is the programmable RISC core running the GPU. Verite was the first programmable GPU and games could partially or entirely offload geometry calculations from the CPU to the GPU. This would improve performance in games like GTA 3 and other PS2 generation games. The most fatal downside is the 66MHz clock speed. It was a relatively slow GPU, giving it only slightly better fillrate than the original 3dFx Voodoo. But it's still well above PS1, and nothing smaller textures, lower color depth, lower Z-buffer precision, and lower resolution couldn't fix. >memory By the end of 1998, 64Mbit RAM modules actually cost half of 16Mbit RAM (Source: https://phe.rockefeller.edu/LogletLab/DRAM/dram.htm). That means Sega wasted money giving the Dreamcast 8MB VRAM. Coupled with chip packaging costs, Dreamcast should've had 16MB VRAM with the same RAM modules as the CPU, giving it 32MB total. GPUs back then were only set up to use 2-bank SDRAMs, but V2200's specs were completed by early 1997, so they had plenty of time to modify the memory map.

Literally impossible. What's up with this extra scenario? I've seen my fair share of absurd ultra bosses in RPGs, but this one just isn't beatable no matter how much you exploit the game. You'd need to actually use in-game cheats and replay the game with runestones to even stand a chance against those stats, but then it would feel pointless since if you're already using cheats anyway, you may as well use the cheat to take control of the enemy. I don't get what I'm supposed to do here.

it's the result of a veteran game developer raised in arcades having to make a AAA blockbuster game. the arcade-like sensibilities shine through in the rock solid gameplay and pacing you could put Leon in a blank box room with a handful of enemies and it'd be fun to play. it's similar to Doom in that way, in that the foundation is so strong that it can be endlessly fun by just rearranging elements like level and enemy placements

The great debate

Second Loops/Second Quest Thread Even for really popular games I feel like you never hear much about these. A lot of classic old games feature one but it seems like few care enough to ever play through them and would rather stick to the initial loop. What are your guy's favorite second loops in games?

This game has some insanely good tracks for a Game Boy game. What are your favorite GB tunes? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2HqyEfYE8Vw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FZZARGGVGCw

Was Rainbow Six the most unique FPS of the 90's? It spawned a legion of imitators and games who took influence from it later, but it was never really surpassed in its depthful-simplicity. SWAT came close.

One of the Halloween games of all time

Is this worth $300? There is literally no way to emulate these.

What are you playing now that Halloween is over? I'm playing Pokemon TCG for Game Boy Color.

Are you guys going trick or treating?

Does it bother you that normies and zoomers have completely taken over the retro VG space?

>game is complete AIDS as Trevor (bullshit difficulty added to combat rentals) >playing as other characters is gay and I don't want to do it Worst Castlevania by far. So many shit sections. Everyone just uses the bat to skip half the game it's so shitty. Or they play the easier Japanese version as a cope.

hello

The Atari 2600 always reminded me of a station wagon, while the Sega Genesis reminds me of KITT from Knight Rider. Post your console/car comparisons.

This is a legit call for help >do tutorial/first dungeon >easy >do second dungeon >easy >try third dungeon >monsters kill me in one attack What's up with this difficulty spike? It feels like I'm missing something. Like, maybe I overlooked some core mechanism of the game that I should be using.
