/vr/ - Retro Games

Metal Gear: Ghost Babel is probably my favorite handheld game since it feels very refined from a gameplay perspective and has some pretty good level design. There's also neat extra modes like VR missions and Special Missions, the latter being having you play a level with a new objective and/or remixed object and enemy placements. I think the most interesting thing is that it actually foreshadows Raiden in a hidden cutscene.

My other favorite handheld games are Super Mario Land 2, Link's Awakening, Wario Land 4, and Aria of Sorrow. I also plan on trying out the GBC versions of the first three Dragon Quest games since I've heard good things about them but I've only played the NES and SNES ports.

This is my personal favorite out of any of the GB family. It's the best 2D stealth game and the best Metal Gear game outside of MGS1-3.

I've never seen anyone mention Metal Gear Solid, I think this one's a good time

I thought this was going to be just like the NES Metal Gear, but it looks far better in motion. Can you think of any other games like that?

Some of the games were actually good, not "just ports".

Probably Ghost Babel.
I have Musya on the SNES too, though, but I'm not sure how rare it is. I actually kind of like it, side scrolling Japanese culture horror.

Not really sure if this counts as retro? Might be borderline since it came out in 2000? But yeah definitely this one.

itt: games you wish got more love

I've played all of these games except for 4 so far, buy I don't think anyone has brought this up yet. Is it good?

Hi, I'm the most criminally overlooked MG game.

Nope, pic related is followed by POOPs and both of the Ac!d games.

The NES games are rated properly.

Awesome, impressive game but...

>Stealth killings (humans and animals)
>Talk of serial killings
>Plenty of dying and implied blood in cut sequences
>References to alcohol usage
>Constant threats of Nuclear Annihilation

Rated E for everyone.
At least Nintendo made them change the cigarets to a "Fogger" unit that none the less looks like a cigaret and emits smoke from Snake's mouth like a cigaret.

ITT: Games that either slipped by the censors or got unfair ratings.
