/vr/ - Retro Games

Close to the same age as OP, but not as much of a faggot. My first retro game, I'm not sure what was the absolute first due to not remembering, but to rattle off names of things:

Megaman X (SNES)
DKC3 (SNES)
Ms. Pacman (SNES)
Goof Troop (SNES)
Super Mario All-Stars (SNES)

Oddly enough I play almost nothing but NES and Gameboy now.

It's true that they don't really have a point to them and are looked down upon, but they shouldn't be looked down upon to the point that you derail the whole thread because someone uses one. That is several magnitudes more shitposting than any number of emoticons could do.

Emoticons might appear on /b/. I wouldn't know as I stay away from there. But, meaningless fighting for the sake of fighting is something I commonly hear /v/ do, so shouldn't we work to avoid it here?

Surprisingly not. I've also played through Megaman Unlimited and have plans to play through Megaman Revolution, Megaman Rock Force (I'm surprised I've never heard people talk about Rock Force when they talked about the first two fangames mentioned), RM4MI, and any other hacks that people might recommend.

There's just something about the Megaman formula I love. I have played through 12 classic-style games so far (I finished Wily's Revenge since making that image) and I'm nowhere close bored.

>What are you currently playing?

Megaman: Wily's Revenge (sometimes known as Megaman I) for the Game Boy.

>Thoughts? Opinions?

Ugh, I'm not having as much fun as I did with the NES games. Right now I'm at the Enker stage, and I'm just having trouble with it. Enemy placement isn't as good, but the bosses are rather easy.

There are some things I like so far, though. While I often hear complaints, I think the music is a decent adaption of the NES music and I enjoy hear a more minimalistic version of it. I also like that you can switch weapons after using Ice Slasher; it actually makes the weapon useful.

Huh, what a coincidence. The series gets better in my opinion, though I'm in the minority in believing that; a lot of people don't care for for MM6, but it's my favorite. It does dip in quality a bit for 7 and 8, though that's also subjective.
