/vr/ - Retro Games

>>7755974
Also this is how it came in the box, it even had a fucking duck hunt knockoff game as well.

I want to forget, I would pay anything to not remember, and I drank myself to black out every night of my 20s to stop the memories. I don't want nostalgia.

Cut to 92. My older brother, the guy I idolised was a crack ridden monster. I was only in the 10th grade but thanks to PSAs and reminders from William Sessions, erstwhile FBI director - I knew drugs were wrong. My older brother however, was totally in the thrall of crack cocaine. At first, it was the TV. I had to take my genny and SOR 2 over to my friends house to play. Then, one fateful afternoon, my genny was swiped too. My brothers sneering face, by now warped by addiction was unusually animated as he repeatedly denied selling it for another hit. A year later, my bro was clean and we had a super Nintendo. Shit was so cash

MODS!!!!

>>7755824
It's what the devs intended.

>>7755817
Doesn't Wii U version have input lag?

>>7755817
Time travelling back to 1988 and buying a sealed copy from the store, and then playing it through RF on the shittiest TV possible.

>>7755935
i remember playing SMB2 with one of those RF to antenna adapters on a black and white TV that looked alot like this

Suicide victims

>>7755794
Birdo is trans like Poison and Reiko from Ridge Racer.

>>7755862
Reiko ain’t tranny

>>7755862
Here comes the soon-to-be a suicide victim.

>>7755749
The 72 pin connector on the original model has pins that wear out or loose connection with the cart pins other ways (dirty contacts). The top loader model is by far the best version but lacks composite out unless modded. It’s usually not the cart but the 72 pin connector if the cart contacts are clean

>>7755749
After 35 years of boomer spit coating the connector in the console and a variety of cartridges, the games and consoles are in need of some thorough cleaning. After you clean the games retension and clean the connector, using a game insert and eject it a handful of times and clean off any excess shit. Clip the reset line on the lock out chip and your system should work fine enough to the point you only need to eject and re-insert games at worst 2 or 3 times.

Now that we know how shitty it is to blow on the cartridge, we can keep the games going just fine with basic maintenance.

My n64 carts are the worst in my collection. NES and SNES load instantly. Gotta blow and reinsert the carts for my 64 sometimes 4-5 times for some games.

The anti piracy Authenticator Chip they used had insanely high standards, so it’ll refuse to boot a game that is reading mostly okay because it thinks that partly bad read is because of a pirated game.
The top loader works more reliably because they didn’t put that chip in it.

>>7755749
> ive never had to clean a gbc, snes,

Had to constantly blow on my carts as a kid on my SNES

>>7755734
>Make Software
>they make software
Neat

>>7755743
I never knew this.

>>7755597
>inb4 some braindead idiot says mario punches yoshi in the head to make him eat stuff

mario and luigi are brothers
just a theory though idk

>>7755595
yes, very. although its quite hard without a guide. corrupted my save file by shutting off the ps1 back then, never recovered from the trauma.

>>7755595
never heard of it, but that is a 10/10 character design.

>>7755584
This sounds like an amusing but pointless project, also it's completely off topic.

>>7755601
Homebrew for retro systems is explicitly on topic, stop being gay

>>7755601
How is this off topic? Where are programs for speccy are discussed? What board is on topic for this?
Also
> having a reason to do anything

>>7755584
Screens I have in mind. I can try draw them myself but I know it would look retarded.
1. Some kind of animation welcome screen for the program, like "channels" in art or whatever
2. Channel selection screen, as proxy provides names descriptions and icons for them, eg 4chan or 2ch
3. Boards list within channel, aka diy o vg etc
4. Board catalog / thread list
5. Thread screen. This this the toughest. Like how every post looks like.

Should I have some luck and get some help from you guys, I'd post a github repo later on.

It could be worse. I had it on the fucking Lynx.

>>7755835
Wasn't the Lynx version a good port?

>>7755858
Honestly yeah it wasn't even that bad

I’m retarded, how do I compile this?

can you play at arbitrary framerates yet

>>7755476
SNES one has the best graphics, but the two last season/months are really "nothing to do the game", sadly. The gba is really the best game.
>All games before these 2 were boring/small scale, and all games after were garbage
The Doraemon one was fucking great, not /vr/ though.

I tried to play these games and it just felt so fucking lame. It's one of the worst genres. Same with The Sims.

>>7755476
isnt this one of those games for women?
YWNBAW OP

I mean, it's literally just a GBA port of the Playstation game, so how can Back to Nature be boring or small scale compared to its remake?

>>7755592
That's the other one "More Friends of Mineral Town" which is the girl version of pic related. Harvest Moon: FoTM is just basically a farmer simulator and many people in developing country would easily relate to. I still wonder how people "finished" this though, I have played it a couple of time and always got bored by the time I got into years 3 or 4.

>>7755475
Pretty sure I did not.

>>7755475
Fuck no. I didn't beat most of the punch out characters on the first try.
Basically everyone past piston Honda can blindside a new player

>>7755475
>>7755546
>>7755609
I beat everyone up to BB on my first try and then it took me 4 tries, that bull charge is tricky. Though thanks to him I know Great Tiger like the back of my hand.

Never beat any of the characters on the first try.

Well, maybe Glass Joe :)

>>7755475
Yes but I had beaten Super Punch Out before starting Punch Out.

>>7755523
ZetaGames' review of Momoko is a classic and I thought that one hasn't been translated yet?

>>7755402
I unironically like Choplifter.

>>7755402
Choplifter is great, you shut your whore mouth.

>>7755402
they probably would have censored the bikini chick on the title screen anyway

PSP version sucks, and so does the music patch.

>>7755306
Persona? Where's personb?

3, 4, and 5 brought in the most insufferable nu-/a/ faggotry that infected every corner of the internet and games in the most reddit way possible. If you advocate that crap, or play that crap, you are the cancer that is killing our interests. You validate the dogshit trend in modern japanese entertainment and the most annoying traits that salaryman otaku despised.

>>7755960
>im a lonely faggot i love dick mmmmmhhhhrrrrr dumb faggot thats me
we didnt need to know

>>7755960
Or maybe they're just good games and you need to stop being a salty faggot

>>7755713
No one ever got told to get lost more than him. If ever anyone wondered whether the neckbeard was real before Reddit and here, pic related.

>>7755725
Ohhh, that's not the stuart Hardy my search returned it was a classical composer lol.
But yeah he's pretty triggered by crappy amorphous little blobs kek

Times were tough back then for comic book fans.

I think my first mag was some Euro mag with Mario 3, but I had a ton of Nintendo Power.
Tried to get every PSM I could find second hand.
I also picked up some others depending on the cover.

Pic is the first NP I bought.

>>7755272
I did and I still do read them.

>>7755259
Too expensive. Too much FMV crap. Almost like a better Sega CD but worse at the same time.

It actually has some decent games.

>>7755259
The original Panasonic model looks really cool!

It needed one of these.

The games suck more than the console itself. There's a couple "gems", but you could as easily emulate and hold a 3rd party 3/6 button for the same experience. Could probably get something resembling a homebrew cult if someone could produce anything for the expansion ports. There's no region or copy coding, but the Jap models have extra language text. Probably useless if you're not a weeabo, but I haven't played any of the Japanese games so I dunno.

>Is it possible to enjoy the Sonic series if you didn't grow up on the arcadey mindset
Who knows? Why not give it a try?
>As someone who was born in the mid 90s and grew up on the PS1, I could never get into the type of shorter, simpler games that are designed for multiple playthroughs
PS1 had a fuckton of those games. Until the end of the Dreamcast, those consoles were getting a lot of arcade ports. The date you were born in and the console you grew up with are not the reason you are not into those kind of games, it's something else.
>Is Sonic in general just not for me?
Is Sonic in general just not for me?

>>7755390
Born 94 btw

>>7755347
because asking "will I like this" is a stupid question

>>7755364
What are some games you liked growing up?

>>7755394
>PS1 had a fuckton of those games.
I'm well aware, but those games never appealed to me. I don't see the point of playing the same 30-minute long game over and over when I could go on a sprawling adventure.

>>7755257
I think games in general aren't for you.
