Was Sega better at making carts? Or having plastic cases for many games helped the carts to be more responsive.

Hello guys,
I've been itching these days to buy/build a pinball cabinet.
I would like to know:
- if it's worth having one,
- if it's really cheaper to build one versus buying one (i took the diy route with my arcade cabinet and the costs were similar in the end to a bought solution)
- if you have hardware recommendations
Right now I have an old PC with a Geforce 1080, and an i7-6700k that I could dedicate to this project.
Thanks for your advice

It's a mistranslation of 'Nolita' (no-ri-ta), which is a small species of salamander native to Japan. The pun is that for some reason that one species has a ridiculously high tendency to be born with extra arms, legs, or even a second head as a fused twin.

Mario Party isn't even good with friends. The only enjoyable part is being with your friends and anything else you did would be as enjoyable.

Using holy water against bosses is essentially turning the game into baby mode. You usually have to actually fight bosses and dodge their attacks but with holy water you just stunlock them to death the second they appear

Not a whole lot to compare it too right? Super Mario Land 1 and...a bunch of Wario games ? And the Mario Advance tiles which are all ports...

I like SML2, lots of good ideas and unique settings but it plays sort of janky overall. Play Super Mario Bros. 3 immediately after playing this one and you'll see what I mean.

I've always thought it was really fucking weird how there were so few original Super Mario Bros. style games made for the Gameboy line. You'd think they'd have pumped out at least one for the GBC and GBA each between all the ports and remakes.

I actually like New unlike a lot people but Land 2 is better, my favourite handheld Mario goes to 3D Land on 3DS but if we're counting DK94 as a Mario game it wins.

What's your favorite 8-bit Sonic game? Let's have a thread about all of 'em, including the spinoffs.

I for one enjoy Sonic 2. It's tough, but it has some very strong levels and physics. The music and visuals are also excellent for the platform, and this boxart is prime.

I think that the first one is very good but the rest suck. In my opinion they are just not good games with Blast and Tails Adventure being the worst. Well, Chaos and Triple Trouble are serviceable but they are still nothing compared to the first one. Hell I think Sonic 1 on the Master System is one of the best Sonic games

>> No.9942795

I also really like it. I think the tough levels are what make it special: they're very consistent and make the game fun to replay and the game carries over the cool emerald system from the first. I also like Chaos for it's special stages, they're far cooler than the usual ones.
