/vr/ - Retro Games

I'm split between Alien Soldier and Gunstar Heroes for best, but Stretch Panic is their worst by far.

Previous thread >>3576052

This thread is for the spirited discussion of CRT displays - Televisions, monitors and projectors used for the playing of retro games!

>Try to keep it /vr/-related: Nothing past 5th gen(+ Dreamcast). Slight OT might be okay if related to CRTs (E.G. 16:9 compatible models, flatscreens, etc.) Systems with backwards compatibility are also pretty safe territory, assuming you're focusing on the older games. PC CRTs are also a-ok.
>Produce OC! Get out your real cameras and take beautiful pictures of your CRTs displaying recognizable characters with the kind of beautiful accuracy that brings tears to the eyes of young and old alike! If you take 100 photos, at least one of them will turn out alright! (maybe)
>Try to be as detailed as possible when asking info on a specific model. As always, google is your friend, and we are your friends with benefits. Older archived threads aren't a bad place to look either.
>Share appreciation for others choice of technology and personal philosophy of gaming. As always show courtesy in your discussion and moderate yourselves first.

Discussion of video processing and scaling devices is okay, but try to keep the focus on CRTs and CRT accessories

This game is fucking brilliant. The shaking mechanic fun to work with and solve puzzles with, the level design and visual work are so much fun, and the built in speed running aspect is what makes the game for me. My all time favorite platformer because 100%ing it is so god damned fun.

Got all gold gems and A or S ranked every mission.

Speakers and keyboard work fine for me, sorry I don't have a mechanical Razer keyboard and studio speakers. Not part of my /vr/ set up though.

Not my desktop picture, just put it up for the picture.

Thank you, S-Video goes a long way on monitors designed for them.
