OP, it's time to face some facts. You don't actually have any friends, least of all friends like the ones that you've made up for your ridiculous greentext strawman. YOU bought those shitty games because that was the best condition you could afford.
>are people really like this lele? i just want to play da games kekw!
This is a cope. You're poor, and you know you're poor. You want nice labels to stick on your shelf, because you're just another shelf collector wannabe, but you can't afford it. You're so self-conscious about it that you've come here, to 4chan of all fucking places, trying to get validation for your cope narrative. Yes, people think you're a fag. Yes, they're laughing at you for being a poor wannabe. No, literally no one believes you just care about playing games.

You could just stop caring about the opinions of people who'd judge you for having shitty pieces of plastic from before any of you were born, but that's apparently not going to happen.

So fucking tired of having my childhood narrated back to me, erroneously, by people who are decades too young to have even lived through it.

Were there really seedy arcades? Maybe. No, your overprivileged white suburbanite ass never went to any of them. Your overprivileged white suburbanite mom didn't go to any, either. And no, they weren't as "seedy" as you're insinuating. I'll possibly concede that there might have been an arcade or two in some inner-city ape-ridden ghetto that had some of the actual issues that hysterical clueless parents were shrieking about at the time, but the vast majority didn't. The Time-Out at your local shopping mall wasn't some street gang warzone, no Columbian cocaine dealers running cartels out of the back room, and no child rapists handing out free LSD-laced candy next to the pinball tables. Dungeons & Dragons didn't cause suicide cults or "covens" of devil-worshipping edgelords, slap bracelets didn't get banned because kids were using them to kill themselves, there was no poison or razor blades in Halloween candy, no one ever suffocated in the ball pit at Chuck E. Cheese, and Polybius never existed. But everyone seemed to believe all of these things were true, and were all too happy to spread them around to people who hadn't heard them yet.

>People focus too much on home consoles trying to explain their demise away via technology.
Which is correct.
>It was really culture that killed them.
What does this even mean? What "culture" do you think killed them?

So it wasn't a "crush" then. Congratulations on all the replies though.

>failed miserably even more than Atari
Ironic, considering this entire thread exists because you thought you'd found some old Atari shit in your parent's closet.
>oh man, it's old with woodgrain!
>i've never actually seen a 2600 game, but i bet they'd fit in this! i mean, what else could this thing possibly be for?!

Look at the IP counter. You're replying to the OP. He knows it's for tapes now. He's just really embarrassed and trying to distance himself from his larpy fuckup.

>I worked on games for both the C64 and NES
>worked
No you didn't, little fella. You sure as hell didn't work as a dev during the NES era. I might believe you wrote some BASIC on your parent's C64 when you were a kid, but even then I'm believing none of it without code and game names.

>>7119194
But I still don't care about Mike owning this game. Or Mike in particular. (Exceptions to that thick ten inch slab.) I care about you gargling his balls. Which is to say I'm endlessly amused by it. The only person's bullshit you can't seem to see through is your own. That's some delicious irony.

>>7081616
>I've seen this shit for a few years now
I can answer that, as I'm the actual poster who created you. In fact, I can even link the thread. You took a fairly mediocre throwaway trolling that I did and made it your persona. The amazing part is that you're *still* running with it. It's actually kind of impressive.

>>/vr/thread/S4458748

I leave it as a fun exercise to the reader to determine how many posts I make (or even which posts are mine) before the "Assembly Language LARPer" is born unto the world.

>>7012221
You're right, no one cares. Least of all you, considering you didn't even know it existed until a few minutes ago, kiddo.

>>5923995
I'm not even sure where to start with this hot mess.
>and I chose the CPS because of that sweet 384x224 resolution
So right out of the gate, you're letting us know that you have absolutely no idea what you're doing, let alone any programming experience, least of all with vintage systems like the ones you're targeting. This makes it a little easier going forward, so thanks.
>My question is if any of you are aware of any programming, hacking, and homebrew resources for the CPS?
Yes. How well do you speak Japanese?
>I know Capcom used an encrypted 68K to defeat piracy
And this has what to do with your ability to develop software for the platform? This is yet another example of a concern you wouldn't be mentioning if you had the first clue what you were doing.
>Still, the CPS is not nearly as popular for homebrew games as the Neo Geo
True, but the old SNK hardware isn't exactly popular, either. For very similar reasons. Creating the necessary toolchain(s) to develop software on these platforms isn't impossible with modern PCs, it's just a pain the ass. The amount of non-Japanese documentation is minimal, and you'll be doing it all via emulation anyway. You don't have the hardware, devkits, or documentation to be doing all this "legit" and lack both the technical and lingustic skills to use any of it even if you did.
>but I really want to program for the CPS due to that resolution
Which, again, let's anyone reading know that your experience with programming is basically nonexistent.
>Can any of you guys help me out with any resources?
The only help you need at the moment is for someone to point you in the direction of a good book on assembly language, preferably for something a bit more "lightweight" than a 68k chipset. MOS 6502 maybe? Whatever gets you past this "vintage programming larper" phase you're currently in.

The fucking Nintendo Police aren't going to kick his door in, and neither are any representatives of the long since defunct companies that published most of these games. Literally no one cares. They wouldn't even know whose door to kick in to begin with.
>b-but muh legal action!
This is the standard line of stinky bullshit delivered by hoarders who just don't want to come clean as to why they're hoarders. They have it and you don't, and that's the only reason that motivates them. If you were all that fucking worried about legal action being taken against you, you probably wouldn't be collecting mass quantities of illegal copyrighted material possessed by you (and ONLY you) in the first place. Additionally, you surely wouldn't be making these illicit activities public knowledge.

>responding to tripfags making off topic shitposts
Shiggy.

Anyway, pic related is how the devs intended it to look. Note the purple sky.

>people dont post on here "pretending theyre roughly 30 years older"
Oh no, plenty do. I see it on a daily basis.

>its a lot harder to get a grasp on something when you arent living through it.
Tell me about it. My personal favorite example is "vaporwave" stuff. I consider it a prime example of what happens when a group of people who quite obviously didn't live through a time period attempt to define it.

>then you should be enthused by more people finding interest in it.
I am. I just can't stomach the fucking roleplaying that often comes with this new discovery. It's like, "Hey, I just learned about this cool old thing that predates me by at least twenty years. Time to hop on 4chan and pretend like I grew up with it!" Just stop. Holy shit, please just stop doing this.

>and quit with your "roleplaying" thing.
Yeah, I really wish you guys would. Just fucking learn and enjoy the hobby. We don't need all the constant, cringy LARPing sessions. You're not fooling anyone who actually lived through the time period, and you're not really contributing anything worthwhile to talk about when you do it.

>this guy literally said that he's programmed for the C64.
And I literally explained why he was a roleplaying kid who's never programmed so much as a VCR a day in his life. I fail to see the issue here.

>but yeah, either get used to it or get your old ass out of here cunt.
Nope, gonna stick around and continue to bomb on these threads whenever they pop up. By the way, can you please stop trying to make it seem like you're 12 years old, hahaha? It's really cringy and no ones buying it, lol xD. So just knock it off, k? lol

We already determined you were only pretending to be retarded, right?

>As somebody who grew up in the N64 era after video game cartoons had kind of blown over, it was a slightly confusing experience.
Yeah, we know. We all saw the exact same recent AVGN video you did, where he made the exact same point you're making here.

>>4436561
As far as you're concerned they might as well have. If you'd ever heard about them prior to your hero making a video about them, you wouldn't have picked now to come here trying to discuss them.

Also, to the janny who came in and tossed this thread, eat a bag of dicks and choke on the last one. This is eceleb cancer, and you fucking know it. It's going to do to this board exactly what it did to /v/, but only if you let it happen. It's bad enough you're letting some samefag talk to himself to make it look like there's actually a conversation happening here.
