/vr/ - Retro Games

Excellent taste.

I have been playing Cho Aniki on PS1(no way in fuck am i remembering its actual full title). I am by no means a veteran of the genre like some, but this game feels brutal in sections. The underwater boss fucks me up with its heat seeker shots. Does anyone know what triggers your little angel Options to sometimes just abandon you during boss fights and just rub up against the boss?

Also been playing Dezaemon 2 on Saturn and Plus on PS1. I dont even really care about the building mode, I just like them for the little prebuilt games included.

I know this is kinda a moot point now in the age when companies just expect you to play online, but would something like this be possible in retro or modern consoles(or even PCs):

>Split screen game
>hardware with two or more video out ports
>instead of splitting the single screen into multiple subscreens, player 2, 3, 4 are output to a secondary screen attached to the 2nd video out port
>no need for a 2nd system/game like lan/systemlink, all running from one copy/hardware

Would this have been feasible? Like lets say the GameCube had a 2nd video output option and Mario Kart Double Dash was playable on 2 screens with just one system.
Would it have been too intensive for the hardware to render the game onto two screens at once?
Are there any games or hardware that attempted something like this?

Is the anon here who made the cool ass hucard cases from cassette tape cases lurking about here? I really want to try making some and wanted to know what kind of printing paper quality you used and/or the template you used for designing the covers.

I LUV METAL SLUG!!!
I WANT ERI TO PEE ON MY FACE!!!

We are unfortunately at the point where "retro gaming" is itself becoming or has become retro, as in when the first Atari era gamers started getting nostalgic back in the 90s.

My question for you, is what is the earliest "game is old" reference you can think of from pop culture? Im not talking about something like an 80s cartoon referencing a 80s game, i mean like, as my own earliest one i can think of, the first Simpsons Halloween episode had a reference to Pong and how outdated it was at the time that episode aired.

I remember the mid to late 90s was the first big wave of nostalgia for 80s games, but can you remember anything before that? Like was there any game re-release from the late 80s trying to cash in on the few hits from the 70s?

So oldest retro game reference or cash in on old game nostalgia you can recall.
