>inb4 have friends

This isn't the 80s and I'm hanging out in a schoolyard with people discussing the latest Nintendo game.

Also >having friends
lmao get real faggot

>inb4 ask for a hint from anons on /vr/

What possible hint could there be to the location of the magic container on maze island that isn't just outright telling you where it is or cryptic "hurr maybe go back to an old palace and comb every single tile around it :))))))

>inb4 you didn't beat the game

In all likelihood, neither did you back in the 80s by your own definition. Unless by sheer stroke of luck you or your friends managed to trip over this one tile and told you about it (Which, in fairness, is not impossible) if this information was simply relayed to you and not discovered on your own, how is it any different from using a guide? Its "Organic?" You don't know if your buddy Timmy down the corner didn't just read it in Nintendo Power and relayed it to you which disproves the entire "don't use a guide" argument in the first place. An "Organic" guide like this is just as much of a crutch as a regular guide.

I unironically like city "episode" in Doom 2

The real question is who the hell cares?

There were some really fucking awesome retro fps runs at Awesome Games Done Quick this year.
I recommend you guys watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YHJA1Z-nApM

It's the Jedi Knight: Dark Forces 2 run, and it's incredible. The runner is pretty informative and skilled, and the game is INCREDIBLY fast. Even if you haven't played JK:DF2 you really should watch it.

Hey /vr/, what's a good arcade emulator for Street Fighter III: Third Strike?

One that works with a gamepad/controller. I tried a couple, but I can't find any option for configuring controllers.

I know, right? Says a lot when people pan the fuck out of a installment in the series and it's only outsold by D2 (17 Million) and LOD(17 million) by a small margin.

Back on topic. WC2 was by and far the best in the series until TFT.

Best arcade you've ever been to?

>Live in Kuwait for most of my childhood
>Hot as shit, nothing to do
>New outlet of a chain of malls called City Centre opens up near by
>City Centre always has a (to be fair, pretty fucking humongous, easily the area of a city block) kid ballpit/gym with arcade
>Old City Centre arcades were shit
>Not much hope for the new on-
>HOLY FLIPPIN' AMERICAN TEETEES
>Shitload of classic Sega racing and lightgun arcade games
>Mothefucking Tekken 1 and 2
>Mothefucking Death Crimson OX
>Motherfucking Time Crisis(es)
>Mothefucking House of the Dead 3 AND 4
>Motherfucking Metal Slug(s)
>Motherfucking too many motherfucking arcade games to even count

You'd never expect something this glorious in a tiny oil-rich Middleeastern country that latches onto Murrica's cock, but holy shit it was an amazing arcade. I've never seen one as expansively varied as it.

It's been a good 7 or so years since I've been to Kuwait, man do I miss it.

OP, you have to promise to come back and tell us when your arcade slides into obscurity from middling interest and your friendships are destroyed because you decided to 1) Have partners and 2) Those partners being your friends.

Unless it's just gonna be an expensive as fuck hang-spot. Then more power to you.

>tfw OP will never report back the dismal failure of this business venture

Those who owned systems that failed, what was it like?

Whether it was practically begging your parents for a VIrtual Boy and having to deal with getting nothing more than 15 games in it's entirety, or somehow getting your hands on a 3DO and finding nothing worth much besides Road Rash and Need for Speed?

After much crying did you end up dealing with it or getting it traded in for a successful system?

Terra, Celes, Shadow, Sabin

Though I went into the final battle with Gau instead of Sabin. I had him equipped with Tempest, Offering, and Merit Award, plus I used the Stray Cat Rage.

>mfw one of the bosses confused Gau and he killed everyone but Terra who had 128% MBlock.

>Friend tells me about how I can unlock Super Fox
>Beat Single Player with Fox on the hardest difficulty with 1 life without getting hit once
>Doing fine until I get to Pikachu
>Jump at Pikachu to attack
>He quick attacks off the edge and kills himself
>Get to Metal Mario
>Kick him once
>He turns around and walks off the edge
>Beat Master Hand with my quickest time yet
>FUCKING EXCITED FOR SUPER FOX
>.........

And that's when I truly died inside.

Are Hyperkin NES clones any good? They use actual NES hardware rather than emulating or some other bullshit that the Retro Duo consoles do right?
