You mean as opposed to average opinion which consists of exagerating flaws in bad faith, pointing out the same "flaws" that are ignored in the rest of the series, all because the player was in fact, mega filtered but will never admit to it?

Yeah I think I'll take Dracula X and MM&B and just tell you to get good.

Ah, the classic "I got filtered and I don't even understand the concept of getting good therefore the game "objectively" sucks and here is why"

You will never get good. Not with this kind of attitude. Getting good isn't just a matter of learning the patterns and executing them at the right moment.
Getting good involves discipline, endurance, and being able to take a fucking loss, instead of blaming the game/controller/rentals/jank/the-games-age/your-mother; and being able to accept it, and be able to rethink your plans and playing behaviour not to repeat the same mistakes again and again.

The sooner you'll learn this, the better you'll get, and the more fun you'll have. Getting pissed at a video game is for losers.

If you don't like it, play something else.

This is so embarassing to watch. You keep having bad positionning and never question it. You keep trying the same two things that get you half of the times and never question it.
If your solution to everything is "spam Axel's flame uppercut", without even asking yourself if you're in range, then yeah you're gonna get filtered.

Do a 1CC on Contra Hard Corps (no savestate "training" cheats, I'll know) on at least 2 different ending routes; + Gradius II, and then we'll talk

>crying because he died a mere 3 times

get good kid

Strategy guides weren't even a thing in the west when Milon was released (and even in Japan only a handful had ever been made).

That game was made the way it is because players loved that shit in the second half of the 80's, it all comes from the influence of the Tower of Druaga.

This zoomer revisionist meme is embarassing.
>it's because of rentals!
>no it's because of strategy guides!
>oh no it's because they didn't have testing!
>no no no no it's because the devs didn't know what they were doing!!!

Just admit you got filtered

>Noooo why am I not allowed to force my way through the game until the ending!!!

Get good

That's a fun way of saying you couldn't identify a /vr/ meme from 2014, which isn't even that long ago. Here's a hot tip: nobody cares how much time you've wasted on this website

> stockholmed into enjoying bullshit difficulty

lol that's a new one, is this the new trendy meme for people who can't get good after "rentals", "devs didn't know what they were doing", "there was no testing", etc ?

>actually savestates are just like using a guide!
>or like getting advice from someone else!
>or like multiplayer!
>or like a friend showing me what to do!
>if I do it without savestates afterwards it's like I never savestated I swear!

Such desperation

Let me guess, it's artificial difficulty and the devs didn't know better and they were fucking with the player on purpose because rentals and they didn't have testers and the game aged terribly and has bad design ?

Either pic related or go find another group to belong to because "retro gamers" isn't for you

This happens all the time on /vr/, nothing to get so worked up again. People like OP just need to STFU and get good.

Ah i see, well, i would check the emu documentation and see if there is info on those custom file formats, or, just open up a hex editor on an existing emulator patch file to see if you can change shit and figure out the format.
there probably won't be alot of info or tutorials on how to change and edit heavily custom formats like those.
you can possibly write a script to generate those from your tables / notes; i personally and recently used ChatGPT to help me write a Powershell script to generate Mesen label files (.mlb) from a different label format (.sym). You might be able to pull off something like that with your notes as a source.
Otherwise, good luck my friend...

> I've tinkered with them yes.
Mother fucker you wouldn't know an accumulator from a stack pointer.
> Don't ask why there isn't SNES homebrew if you can't handle the truth.
If the limitations you mentioned are so crippling, why are people making NES / Master System games? Obviously those limitations are way more imposing than anything the SNES can't do. Why do retro dev at all when you an just use Unity?
If you are doing retro dev, you're obviously going to be dealing with limitations. That's the fun of it. Booting up the CRT and seeing your work come to life on your favorite childhood console. It's absolute magic. I hope you experience it one day, and maybe you will, that is, if you're not too busy having autistic meltdowns nitpicking minor tech specs.

>Why are zoomers across this board so obsessed with "beating" games? Why are they so fixated on checking off boxes just so they can say they did it? Are they even aware of the possibility that a game can be enjoyable for reasons other than seeing the ending screen?

Exactly what people can't get good and beat games would say
