/vr/ - Retro Games

>>4334278
That's fine, as long as you realize your initial argument was broken from the start.

>>4334050
Nope, fuck off

People are going to bitch and moan, but at the end of the day, everyone on /vr/ is a basic bitch who only plays the most popular SNES games.

Any thread not pertaining to a super popular topic almost immediately dies.

I don't care. If you implement a 15-year rule, then it's going to have to be consistent. If you view the Sega Dreamcast as an exception, because it's largely based off of arcade architecture, then that's fine with me.

The 15 year rule is going to hit hard in 2020 when the 360 is considered "retro" by that standard, which also doesn't feel appropriate.

I don't give a shit about GBA threads, or a PS2 thread now and again. If there was a single containment thread, I don't think it would negatively effect the board at all. As long as it was just -one- thread. The issue is that once the floodgates break, everyone's going to post whatever the fuck they want, and people will continue to troll, just instead of demanding GBA, they'll demand PSP and DS.

There isn't a clear answer. I do know the modwork on /vr/ is spotty at best, so maybe the solution is some more consistent mods.

>>4334324
Nobody complains about that, you homo.

>>4334325
It applies to 1st-5thgen consoles. It's pretty well supported. I haven't seen anyone debunk it. Been posted going on a year now.

>>4334318
and persona waifufags, dmc/godhandfags, double dash babies, etc..

>>4334328
>Everyone on /vr/ is basic because they don't play obscure hidden jewms like I do
Fuck off, hipster scum. You weren't even alive back in /vr/ times.

>>4334328
>everyone on /vr/ is a basic bitch who only plays the most popular SNES games.
I don't even own, owned or play SNES and I don't give a shit about 6th gen

>>4334318
God, yeah, as much as I may want the GBA on it's pretty much entirely because for whatever reason its 'dead' in the mind of /v/. I don't think any of the GC/XB/PS2 trio will reach that status - even five more years from now it'll still probably rabidly shitpost about them and their games.

And fair point on the meme thing but given how quickly they evolve and emerge it seems like it'd be impossible to enforce.

>>4334328
>everyone on /vr/ is a basic bitch who only plays the most popular SNES games.
nigger just look at the catalog, this is the only place on the site to talk about obscure retro games

>>4334307
/vn/ for nintendo fags is a good idea too

>>4334332
>It applies to 1st-5thgen consoles.
Atari 2600 does not output 240p and there are more consoles like that
Amiga has plenty of games without any arcade influence (CD32 is a console (also does not output 240p))
Okay, you specify up to 5th gen here, but the picture says "retro" and Dreamcast is considered retro here, it has online connectivity, the modem is "build in", just like a FAT PS2
Want more? The picture is a pretty broken generation and argument

>>4334332
>no one has debunked my argument
>Dreamcast is okay even though it completely undermines my own argument

>>4334328
>everyone on /vr/ is a basic bitch who only plays the most popular SNES games.
this is a issue. People at most have quite limited amount of games played. Seriously if you have not beaten 200+ games from each generation why the hell are you here??

>>4334337
absolutely disgusting. Get the hell off this board.

>>4334339
Yeah, the point people need to be driving home if they want GBA here is NOT the X generation/X years old argument. It's because GBA is fundamentally way more similar to the previous generations. PS2/XB/GC were the definitive start of modern gaming and will remain so until there is enough of a change to what is now considered modern gaming.

>>4334350
>Atari 2600 does not output 240p and there are more consoles like that
It does actually. In practice that's what the TV is displaying.
>Amiga
Not a home console.

An exception doesn't mean it follows the rules. Not sure how you guys are this illiterate but it's sad.

>>4334356
>absolutely disgusting. Get the hell off this board.
Why? Why are nintendo fanboys so hostile?

>>4334353
Illiteracy the posts ITT.

>>4334347
What's the matter? Your parents didn't buy you all the systems when you were a kid?
Maybe we should also have /vsck/ - Single Console Children

>>4334356
Why does someone have to have played thousands of games just for the right to post here?

>>4334364
>What's the matter? Your parents didn't buy you all the systems when you were a kid?

are you actually trying to mock someone for having not been spoiled

>>4334369
>a-at least I wasn't spoiled
Whatever helps you sleep bra

fuck all of the 6th gen faggots, what we really need is a rule against 5th gen consolewar shitposting that ruins so many threads

>>4334371
are your teeth as nasty as hers too? probably nastier

There's no way "6th gen babies" could be worse than the manchildren that are already here.
>>4334364

soon...

>>4334361
How many exceptions are we up to now?

>>4334363
It's okay buddy, come back when you have better argument.

>>4334373
>implying it's just the fifth
sega and nintendo fanboys ruin the 4th and 3rd as well

>>4334378
t. butthurt single-system poorfag

>>4334368
because they actually play games and not just the top 20 snes games you must play guy

>>4334361
>It does actually. In practice that's what the TV is displaying.
No, it does not. It does not output a resolution at all as it's fully analog and the internal one is sub-240p.
Many early consoles are like that.

>Not a home console.
CD32 is a home console. Check your facts.

>An exception doesn't mean it follows the rules. Not sure how you guys are this illiterate but it's sad.
Your picture does not mention the word "exception" even once. It's not an argument.

Done. As you wished >>4334332 debunked.

>>4334380
I only said DC was an exception, champ. It's proven you can't read.

>>4334378
>6th gen baby trying to make idorts look bad
This is getting too funny.

>>4334383
I see far less of that, but I agree that any sort of consolewar posting should be banned
these systems are long dead, people

>>4334384
Thanks for proving my point.

>>4334364
The problem isn't people who are happy and like several consoles.
The point was Nintendo fanboys.

>>4334384
Whatever helps you sleep at night, early peaker.

>>4334387
>the DC is an exception because the community wants it and that's okay
>the community is wrong for wanting the last Gameboy platform to be classified as retro

Why?

>>4334386
>No, it does not. It does not output a resolution at all as it's fully analog and the internal one is sub-240p.
You're ignorant about how NTSC TVs work. That image they're are displaying is 240p from an Atari.
>CD32 is a home console. Check your facts.
I'm seeing a third world console being put on a pedestal. Which is why it didn't come to mind when you said Amiga and I just instantly thought of the computers.
>Your picture does not mention the word "exception" even once. It's not an argument.
Because it's not about the DC? You haven't debunked a damn thing kid. Like I said a year and dumbass like you ain't debunking shit.

>>4334050
GBA games have been made within the last ten years -- just saying

>>4334401
Nintendo still makes handhelds.

>>4334403
But you are from the third world, Australia-kun.

>>4334396
That won't contain them even if it was created. I mean deviantart is right there yet this board is still flooded with autistic Sonic fans.

>>4334407
I'm American.

>>4334403
>You're ignorant about how NTSC TVs work. That image they're are displaying is 240p from an Atari.
Nope. Check it up. The internal resolution is lower than 240p by far and the analog output it displays is not fixed to 240p.

>I'm seeing a third world console being put on a pedestal. Which is why it didn't come to mind when you said Amiga and I just instantly thought of the computers.
>third world console
American system.
Not an argument though.

>Because it's not about the DC?
You are making more exceptions than the DC right now.

Your bait is shit. But as long as you give me (You)'s, I can return the favor.

>>4334396
Why not just make a /vfb/ board for all kind of fanboys? Would be nice to get rid of Sony fanboys too.
>>4334395
>>4334397
Seems like some people really envy those with more wealth than them.

>>4334406
But official support for the Game Boy line terminated with the GBA. By your logic, because Nintendo is still in business that means no Nintendo console counts as retro.

>>4334409
Nice try, Australia-kun.

>>4334416
The ones that count as retro were released before the year 2000.

>>4334414
>Why not just make a /vfb/ board for all kind of fanboys? Would be nice to get rid of Sony fanboys too.
This posts seems suspiciously defensive like posted by a Nintendo fanboy.
I agree though, fanboys are awful on /vr/. Nintendo ones are one of the louder ones for sure, Sony ones I notice too.
