Did you mean to type LA

That means GBA and og Xbox are retro now too, yess.

>>5056392
Mods!

It's too easy and is only carried by good graphics just like Metroid prime

>>5056392
Oh cool so Mods delete my Paper Mario: Thousand Year Door thread but leave this one up.

Fucking retards.

Enjoy you game OP, I wanna play it, but I'm hoping for a HD version re-release on Switch.

>>5056384
Hardware was solid but as you said "cartridges". Solid state memory is faster than reading a disk, but the cartridges were practically antiquated by launch and a joke in terms of capacity towards the end of the generation. Nintendo understood the hardware and capabilities and made great first party games, but it was prohibitively difficult for most 3rd parties to develop and restrict game files to ~60mb

>>5056384
What a shit thread.

>>5056384
>I don't like thing

2 decades later and people are still butthurt about N64s superiority

>>5056471
Pretty much. The only issue I had was the controller, it's not easy to use if you have tiny hands like me, but I got used to it enough to control properly, albeit not comfortably. Probably because I was used to the Snes and Ps1 controllers.

time to kill is my favorite Duke Nukem game

>>5056348
>> Duke Nukem: Planet of the Babes:

Correction...

>> *Land of the Babes

>>5056349
>time to kill is my favorite Duke Nukem game

It's actually pretty good for a 3rd person corridor run and gun style 3D shooter. One of the more underlooked titles on the PS1.

>>5056327
Don't be a backseat moderator fag, you're not even talking about video games

>>5056331
That's fair

>>5056321
Maybe, might need to study /v/ for a bit first though. One of the reasons for /vr/'s creation was to discuss games so old that they fell outside of the current cultural zeitgeist. This place exists for things that have zero traction at all on /v/, such as the PS2/GBA era that >>5056324 pointed out. There is nowhere for that generation to exist at the moment, the /v/ crowd is too young and crotchety faggots like >>5056327 don't want to admit that their console generation is not the only one that is old as shit now.

Seriously I don't understand what it is with the oldfags, either they hate the thought of sharing their retro safespace with a newer generation or they don't want someone shoving their perceived "Golden Era" off its pedestal (considering the amount of bitching I see on here about "modern gaming", I think it's the later).

>>5056324
We could at least have one thread dedicated to 6th gen stuff, it's not like it would get in the way of the usual "what's your favorite castlevania" and "sonic sucks" stuff.

vf4 was on naomi 2 which is just a better naomi which is just a dreamcast which is retro

>>5056301
I prefer the first one, never finished 2. Not that 2 is bad, but I couldn't get into it. I guess because it feels slower.

My memory is fuzzy on favorite areas, events, and songs. Haven't played since it came out. The Dwarf Village sticks out in my mind as being comfy.

First experience was the demo disc. I had never played anything like it, and it still feels pretty unique. Fell in love with it instantly. Best memory isn't from the game, but me running around with my dog in the backyard pretending I'm Tomba.

The intro is cool

>>5056301
This looks fun.

>>5056395
Oh it is

I would rather you go silent

>>5056360
Don't know SnesDrunk, but it really is. Mostly because it drags on forever. It would be tolerable if it was short but it's hours of slow progression fighting the same ninjas.

>>5056364
44 levels dude.

>>5056368
Crazy.

>>5056246
The Simpsons Arcade

>>5056457
That one's worth a single playthrough just so you know what a garbage beat em up looks like, same with the Konami TMNT games. Can then come back to Capcom games and enjoy them that much more

There's shit tons of rpgs with walk and run.

Pretty much any 3D platformer on the system 1997 onwards.

Someone translate what OP is asking

>>5056253
For example, you tilt the stick slightly and the character tiptoes, push it about halfway and he walks briskly, hold it all teh way and he runs as fast as possible.

>>5056253
3D platformers with analog controls, for PSX

>>5056173
SotN is a possibility, Konami had no problem licensing Castlevania 1 and 4 to nintendorks. Money talks so as long as Sony doesn't try to dick them it'll happen.

>>5056173
just use an emulator

>>5056173
tomba,mgs would be nice

>>5056175
I do have a rasberry pi that runs psx pretty decent still kinda want the classic too

>>5056173
I really wish they gave us a new PSone with an actual decent LED screen and 3.5mm jack for headphones and a decent 2.1 sound system

>>5056173
>Is it wrong
If it is you; Yes. You sick sick fuck

Back to nature
Wanted to plow Karen when I was a kid

BtN but only by a little
>>5056178
Never saw the appeal honestly. Elli will always be my favorite. Most qt and pure wife.

With some savvy grinding you could easily get 4-sets of the Power Nine. Naturally this will break the game.

Duels of the Planeswalkers isn't worthy to shuffle Shandalar's deck.

>>5056091
I used a very similar deck(Ivory Tower, Wheel of Fortune in addition to those cards) to beat the final boss. Wiped all his health, had over 100 health myself by the time it was done.

Friendly reminder there are updated cardsets available for Shandalar. Most recent one I've messed with is 2010, but that was a long time ago. Could be newer stuff since then.

>>5056090
I still have the strategy guide of this game lying somewere. It made me very interested in playing this game but it's kind of hard to look for it nowadays without resorting to torrents or patches. I was never that much into Magic but it's nice to see it's still being played to this day.

>>5056090
This game just shows how important banned lists are in TCGs with up to 4 copies of Time Walk, Ancestral Recall, Timetwister, Contract from Below, Wheel of Fortune, Black Tutor and mana generation through Moxes and Lotus you can easily generate infinite extra turns.

>>5056429
It's still fun, I don't think the changes hurt Popful Mail much.

>>5056434
>>5056429

While I really like WD's localizations, because I don't care if the story becomes silly with silly jokes; I'm playing to have fun, not to care about sub-par stories.

But damn their gameplay changes make me crazy: the bosses in Popful became annoyingly unfun (too fast/strong/resilient), and it really breaks with the slower pace of the rest of the game.

Don't get me started on Silhouette Mirage.

>>5056452
If you don't care about an incredibly unprofessional localization, that's your problem. If you're going to insert jokes into the dialogue then hire someone who can actually write jokes. Most of the game's dialogue reads like it was written by an 8 year old.

>>5056452
If you don't care about the story then just play the Japanese version smoothbrain.

>>5056475
>>5056481

Calm down, buddy, it's just a video game, not some superiour art form.

>>5056031
Does FFI have too many references to Dragon Quest?

>>5056142
>everybody who holds the correct opinion is the same person
You wish. FF9 was trash, the franchise peaked with VII.

>>5056203
Didn't FF1 had one grave with Link's name on it?

>>5056031
I KNOW THIS!!

>stop crying and make your own XD
yeah for them to die in one day in such a slow board

Will this board ever acknowledge this problem? Maybe by changing the name to /jarpig/ so that people not into the genre don't waste their time here with a bunch of regulars that has that as their favorite genre?

does it have network play?

>>5056084
long story short it was a pc game in 1998 that imitated Gauntlet. Same level design aspects, constantly decreasing health, same classes. It was a rad game and ran smooth as fuck on my 128 mb ram 32 mb gpc Toshiba back in the day.

>>5056087
apparently it could be played over the internet, never did though as a kid because my laptop didn't have internet.

>>5055972

>>5056240
does it play choppy at 12 frames?

I pity the fool!

>>5056056
He's a good one. But Cid's rage mode can't be beat.
As an aside, his dynamite limit is smirkworthy.

are all the main series final fantasy games up until ffx available on the ps1 if I get those collections or are any left out? I still get confused about the numbering system.

>>5056038

If you get all that what are you moaning about? Woolsey translations are very minor offenders compared to the likes of Working Designs and others, considering he localized some of the most critically acclaimed JRPGs in history it's safe to say the fidelity you're talking about was met for a majority of people. They're hardly 'colorful' at all in the grand scheme of things.
